Facelook IPL deal

Bought the Facelook IPL full arm deal on Juztoday.com but cancelled it 2 days later Making appointment was easy. But I didnt like that they didnt state on the voucher or on the deal page that the number of shots is limited. The voucher was only good for 20 shots. I was asked to top up another $100++ for an additional 20 shots. The beautician even admitted that the machine that they use has a small surface area. I felt it was better to cancel my voucher and find another salon. Groupon is also selling vouchers for Facelook now....

Only Aesthetics QPX - the final treatments

I have to say that their customer service standards improved significantly in my last few treatments. The people were friendlier and I see that they finally pick up calls. They were also more thorough with their treatments. During my first few treatments, I felt that they were very halfhearted. They did not zap the lower part of the underarm and did not clean the gel off completely. But my last few treatments went well. Kinda depends on luck I guess. I didnt get perfect results. There's still hair growth. But I only have to shave maybe once a month? And it's more at the lower part (probably caused they missed it in the first few sessions). For the existing customers, please give feedback by ticking on the form after you sign on their chit. I think it helped to get rid of the rude ones. Also,...

Only Aesthetics update

I have been to quite a number of sessions of QPX underarm. I must say that I feel that their service level has improved tremendously since I first started. It is easier to make appointments. Previously, they dont accept bookings 2 months in advance. I had to call at most 1 month before my appointment date. My QPX is at 2 months interval so I had to set reminders to make appointments. Their phone lines were also always engaged or calls were unanswered. Now, I can make my next appointment after every QPX session. Their beauticians are friendlier and more detailed. In my first few sessions, I encountered a beautician who I felt wasn't too friendly and did a slip shod work. Recently, the beauticians are more patient, more detailed and generally more friendlier. Less hard-sell. Even when...

Ibeauty & Slimming centre - massage

 Just went for a 60 minutes massage session at Ibeauty (Ang Mo Kio branch) after I bought the $20 deal from www.bestbargain.com.sg I won't be going back. I don't like how the masseuse kept asking me to upgrade the massage from the 'relaxing' one to a better one. She said that an additional $20 will get me a 'better', more targeted treatment massage and cupping or gua sha. After I declined, she lowered to $18 which I declined again. Initially, I wanted to ask for more attention on the neck and shoulder. After hearing her promotion of the more 'targeted' treatment, I didnt as I wanted to avoid further hard-sell. After the massage, she offered peach tea which was nice and she promoted her packages to me. She then said that the massage that she did was only 抚摸式, which literally means...

NEWS: Unlicensed driver jailed and banned for fatal accident

Okay, I don’t understand this judgment. Why was she only charged with driving a car without insurance coverage and without a licence? The public prosecutor recognized that she had been drinking substantially and raised her intoxication as a aggravating factor. Why not just bloody charge her with driving under the influence? This was what the TP had to say in 2010: Traffic Police would like to remind the public that drink driving is a very serious offence and the penalties are severe. Even if the driver's alcohol content in his blood or breath does not go beyond the legal limit, he can still be charged for drink driving if he is unable to control his vehicle properly. Drink drivers, on conviction, will be disqualified from driving for at least 12 months, which would, in effect, invalidate...

Hair Salon by Rick Ho: Fixing appointment

Hair Salon By Rick Ho 100 Orchard Road 02-19, Concorde Hotel & Shopping Mall Singapore 238840 Just made appointment for a haircut + treatment, a deal which I got on Groupon for $29. I actually called last week but it was fully booked for this week. I called again just now. I only wanted to do it on Monday because it would be most convenient for me. I only managed to get an appointment on 30 Jan. Being busy is okay, it means the business is good which probably means he is not too bad. But the receptionist was really very flamboyant. He talked as though he did not need my business. I really did not appreciate that.  I...
