Hello Margaret
I just wanted to extend a personal thank you to you.
My daughter Lauren spent some time with you and one of your staff
yesterday afternoon, finding all about a career in beauty therapy and
Lauren was full of enthusiasm when she was telling me about it last
night. She is quite a quiet girl so it was refreshing to hear her speak
so positively. She mentioned your name and I have heard of you before
and know that your business has won many awards in the past.
I just wanted to thank you for taking the time to speak with Lauren as
she now has a clear picture of what she needs to do, if she wishes to
pursue a career in that direction.
I have many students come for work experience in my business and it is
great to give them that opportunity.
Thanks and regards
Bev
I would just like to let you know that I had my hair done by Amy
yesterday, a semi permanent colour and cut, and it is the best service
I have had ever. My cut was perfect as well as my colour and she was
very understanding as to what I wanted done and didnt try to put words
in my mouth.
Thank you very much.!

I would like to thank Evelyn for the best haircut I have ever
received. The style and shape are excellent and she listened and
cut my hair exactly the way I asked and provided great
suggestions too. She is a true asset to your team. This was my
first visit to Face & Body and will certainly not be my last.
Kind regards
Helen
Dear Margaret
Thanks to super Sally from The Pr Shop I was able to go to Face
and Beauty Titirangi this morning for a facial – and I feel I
absolutely need to tell you both about my experience.
Never –
not even when I lived in Paris - have I come across such
fabulous service – your team are a credit to you. Bridie
looked after me and was lovely – she even resisted telling me
off when she learned of my current skin care routine (that would
be the non-existant one). I loved the rooms, I loved the
bed (having it heated was wonderful as I loathe being even
slightly cold....)The music with the sounds of the sea playing
underneath was perfect – as a water lover I found it really
soothing and relaxing. The product were lovely and my skin
feels wonderful.
Back upstairs the girls – Bridie and Jasmine - showed me the
products, gave me the benefits but there was no “you have to buy
this” feeling – I did buy some product but with my budget it
will be a gradual process and it was wonderful to not have to
explain, argue or flatly refuse to buy anything else. Products
just discreetly went back on the shelf.
Bridie did ask did I want to rebook and when I said no I would
do it from the office she didn’t bat an eyelid. So please
tell her that was not a fob off – I WILL be returning, I simply
have a ridiculous schedule and need to have a laptop and diary
in front of me before committing to any appointments. Ask
Sally – she’ll tell you.
I was so impressed I am going to write two reviews –one for BtoB
and one for my own website and will be giving you a plug on
Twitter and Facebook.
Thank you both – and Margaret – please tell your team, I am a
hard sell and I was totally bowled over.

Hi Margaret

You're doing amazing work and I do consider it an honour and
privilege to be of service to such a fine organisation.
Best wishes to you all in your continuing journey to the
fulfillment of your vision and aspirations.
Kind regards,

Margaret & all your team,
You know how to look after a girl when she needs it most! You
are all very professional, talented at what you do & lovely
people. Margaret - I really appreciate your support.

Oh how lovely a gift voucher – thank you – what a
lovely treat.
I actually used to be a reasonably frequent customer more than
10 years ago now. How I loved the back and neck massages I used
to get at least once a month. I was part of a plan to reduce
stress and get some ‘me’ time to relax so I could get pregnant
(a difficult journey). Needless to say I was eventually
successful and the subsequent two children have now made me so
broke that such wonderful treats are a very much missed thing of
the past.
Thanks again,
Kind regards

On
behalf of the Titirangi Primary School, I would like to thank
you for your contribution to the PTA Midwinter Christmas Dinner
Fundraiser held last weekend.
We had a very successful and
enjoyable evening.
Your support enabled the PTA to raise close
to $2,000 towards new e-Learning programmes for the children at
the school. This result would not have been possible without
your contribution.
Yours sincerely
Gary Principal
Thank you so much for your generous donation to our recent

I would like to thank the wonderful beauty therapists at Face and
Body Blockhouse Bay for their invaulable help - it has made all the
difference to my skin. After receiving a skin consultation at Face and
Body my skin has never been better! I learnt so much about how to
improve the quality of my skin, just by adapting my skin care routine
to suit my skins needs. Their specialised advice gave me more knowledge
and confidence about my skin and homecare products, as well as what I
should and shouldn't be doing to get the best results.
I highly
recommend for anyone who has any concerns with their skin, or are just
unsure about what they need to be using, to have a skin consultation -
it's extremely worth it!
Thank you Face and Body!

Just wanted to say thank you yet again for a lovely visit (I had a
facial and back massage); Julie is consistently fantastic and I always
feel completely relaxed with her. I now have my hair done at Face &
Body and Rebecca is a gem! It's great to feel welcome with every visit
and the team is very friendly, especially Margaret. Keep up the great
work, it is no wonder you've won the awards.
Best regards

Dear Margaret & Team
On behalf of my daughter Sarah Cairns and
myself we would like to sincerely thank you and your staff for the
wonderful care and attention shown to all of us on Saturday 10
September 2005 (Sarah's wedding day).
Sarah was so pleased with her
hair and we wish to pass on our grateful thanks to Rebecca for her
expertise. It can be a stressful day for a bride but Sarah left the
salon feeling confident that her hair and make-up would compliment her
beautiful gown she wore, and it did.
My grand-daughter Tayla has long
hair and has lots of it, but Rebecca managed to get it all up and Tayla
looked like a wee princess on the day.
And to you Margaret, you made us
all feel very special with our make-up and particularly my mum-in-law
whom you looked after superbly. She came away looking stunning for a
lady of her age and the rest of the family said how lovely she looked.
When we get some photos we will certainly let you have a look at your
wonderful work.
Once again - our sincere thanks to you all for your
excellent service. I can understand why your business won the Waitakere
Business Awards, Excellence in Service. Keep up the good work.
Kindest
Regards
Julie, Sarah & Family
I was skimming through our bartercard directory and saw your advert
so decided to make an appointment and treat myself for my birthday, it
was well worth the drive from the North Shore and just wanted to say
how I thought that Dyanna did such a great job she was not only
professional but she was also friendly and happy at the same time which
is quite rare these days. I am now going to consider taking the extra
drive time and becoming a regular client it is so hard to find a
therapist that makes you feel so comfortable and special, she
definitely loves her job you can tell!!!
Kind regards
Tara
To Margaret Walsh
I have been coming to Face and Body for a couple
of years now and it is always an enjoyable experience. In fact I always
look forward to it.
I just wanted to express how impressed I am with
one of your staff members. Sara is professional, friendly, always gives
excellent advice on procedures and products and I am always happy with
the result of the treatment at each visit.
I have happily recommended
your place of business to my friends, family and work colleagues and
have also advised how wonderful Sara is.
I would also like to take this
opportunity to express my delight at your customer loyalty card. Having
this loyalty card is much appreciated and makes me want to come back
many times. This is also one of the reasons that I have stopped going
to my regular hairdresser and have starting coming to Face and Body. I
also find your prices to be a lot cheaper than the big named
hairdressing salons that I used to go to.
I hope you pass my comments
onto Sara as it’s always good to get feedback – especially when it’s
positive.
Thanks for your time.Kind regards
Andrée
Dear Margaret
I I regularly visit Face & Body and at my latest
appointment I had the pleasure again of a free treatment.
I would like
to say a big thank you for these "little treats" that I have received
from Face & Body. They are very unexpected, but are greatly
appreciated. With these "little treats" I have the chance to experience
new and different treatments that I would not normally make an
appointment for, but I will be certain to include them in one of my
future visits.
I also wish to take the opportunity to say what a
wonderful consultant Julie Davies is. I always make my appointments to
fit in with her schedules. Julie always has a smile on her face, even
if she has been working non stop all day and she makes me feel so
comfortable, more like a friend coming to visit than another client.
My
husband keeps saying that Face & Body is my most favourite place to
visit and he is not wrong there!
I have absolutely no hesitation in
recommending Julie or Face & Body to anybody I know.
Keep up the
wonderful work.
Yours faithfully
Caroline Karton
Hi Margaret
Just to let you know what wonderful results I have had
from my 2 Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) treatments on my legs. It has made
my summer different from all the others. Great results and it has been
a pleasure to come to you for treatment. Hope to see you in the near
future for more transformations. Thank you for being such a caring
human being.
Kindest regards
Helen
I can highly recommend Face & Body the staff are always friendly,
helpful and make a really efficient team that make any visit to Face &
Body well worth while.
Yours sincerely
Marguerite Smith
Dear Margaret and Staff,
Two and a half years ago I left the North
Shore and moved out to Laingholm. It was a big decision for me to
change my hairdresser at that time after some fourteen years. However,
on visiting Face & Body I decided to try something new. I have had
wonderful professional care of not only my hair but some beauty therapy
and of course the sun beds. I am a regular now and I think manage to
visit once a fortnight. My hair has never felt better and the colour is
great. Each time I have had beauty therapy I have been impressed by the
expertise provided by the staff. Your sun tanning beds are always kept
in top condition.
What has impressed me most is the innovation in this
Salon. Margaret you have brought into your business many new and
exciting products after you have fully researched these. It is
inspiring to know that through your commitment to growth you are
providing such wonderful choices for your clients. It is exciting as a
woman to have the opportunity to experience the latest technologies for
improvement of our face and body. Margaret - you put your money where
your mouth is and I admire that.
I look forward to using your new
services in the future and needless to say - although I have now
returned to live on the North Shore I have chosen to still remain a
client of Face & Body.
So thank you.
Kind regards,
Karen
Pure Indulgence from my nose to my toes !
That's what I love about
Face & Body.
For over 10 years I have delighted in their expertise and
personalized services.
This talented team are always updating and
'extending' - be it their knowledge, equipment, beauty & hair products
or the premises.
They understand so clearly what a gal wants and needs.
Face & Body is a unique and refreshing culture, one that consistently
delivers and delights.
Vicki Hall.....Titirangi, Auckland.
I have been visiting Face & Body now for several years. I have
always found the service friendly and professional. The staff have good
product knowledge - which helps when there is so much to choose from.
Because I am a regular client I can earn bonus treatments just by being
organised i.e.. rebooking future appointments.
Both my 2 year old and 5
year old children have their hair styled by the same wonderful
hairdresser - he's just great with the kids.
I'm happy to recommend
Face & Body to you.
Miriam Rea
Face & Body in Titirangi Road is one of those important little
places I can’t live without. Hair stylists to make me presentable,
beauty therapists to help make me relax and massage therapists to keep
my body moving. Every visit is a chance for a chat with staff who make
me feel more like a friend than a client. Every visit scores 11 out of
10.
