I had been lax and it was about a year since my last haircut so I really needed to get something done. I'm new to Melbourne and didn't have a clue about the first place to try regarding a good haircut. Encouraged by the reviews on this website and the place being close to where I work I made an appointment at Mink. They managed to fit me in the next day which was great - and their opening hours meant I could make my visit after work. The chocolate biscuit with my drink was also a nice touch. I had a rough idea what I wanted done but was open to suggestions from the girl who was cutting my hair, Luisa. Basing her opinion on what I wanted she suggested what she would do with it, which I was happy with. When I came out of the salon, I was really happy with what she had done (which I don't often do), keeping the length but giving it a bit of style. Watching her blow-dry it I even got some tips on how to wear it a bit differently from usual. The price was a bit more than I had expected, but she had put a treatment on the ends which I'm sure increased the price a little. I was disappointed that they didn't have a price list I could take home with me for future options (also for the beauty stuff), but was told they could give me a rough quote over the phone.

Was rather disappointed with the quality of the dishes we received after reading some of the reviews on here. To begin with, they stated on their website that they delivered, yet there was only a pick-up option when you went though the ordering process. So we had to phone and place our order instead. The food arrived about 10 mins earlier than they had specified, which was great as we were real hungry! The dishes were average in flavour and I was even put off mine a little as there was a lot of grizzle with the chicken. Ended up a little disappointed with the result as we were set for a good feed. The prices were good in comparison to other places, but not worth what we paid for.

Approximate cost: $15
