The Positives:...The Vietnamese bakery is fabulous.. great aray of produce and such lovely service. Michael the Butcher and his lovely wife Lily never disappoints and my "go to place" for meat locally... The Fishmonger is also eceptionally good... Vintage & Home (Fina) has a wide selection of antiques and interesting artifacts and I love stopping by for a chat , a rumage and the occasional purchase. Fina's prices are exceptionally fair and she will also scout around for certain requirements! .. In the same lane hangs out Kirsten from the Culture Shack.. quirky with great prices... gothic clothing/ donated clothing amongst many a varied article.. records... paintings , leather wear you name it.... The Framing shop is another outlet for me and the workmanship is second to none !.. The Bookshop etc... These businesses deserve to do well as they put their heart and soul into trying to offer their community something different! Living in Mount Nasura Gosnell Railway Market is on my doorstep and I love popping down there and the parking facility is exceptional!
The Negatives: The building needs a damned good overhaul .. the toilet block in particular ... It is not upto Australian standards as far as cleanliness goes and where "food" is concerned I would have thought this would be a priority !... the loss of many of the shops within , is a gross disappointment... the supermarket has gone as has the haberdashery and there appears to be an above average of closed shuttered establishments. Repetitive Chinese goods for sale taking away the concept of "the unusual" which is very disappointing particularly for us residents who prefer to shop and support our local industries! This is a perfect opportunity for Management to take a good hard look at themselves.. they have an obligation to their Vendors who are obviously paying decent rents to "up their game" and to the general public also. They have the perfect opportunity to create another "Fremantle Market" ... A "tatt environment" is destructive as the best advertising is "word of mouth" and I for one would hate to see this beautiful building to...
Read moreI got my hair recently done at the salon, blow dry and straighten • the water was freezing cold through out the wash and not a pleasant experience • after my hair was washed the hair dresser showed me that product was still left in my hair and not washed out throughly and continue to straighten my hair knowing there was still product in my hair • my hair was not completely straighten and was very big and poofy I was not happy at all, I’ve payed money for my hair to be done and I have had to go home and do it myself my hair was supposed to look amazing for photos and my mothers celebration it was my mom’s 40th also and we were both not happy or satisfied with our experience • my mom also had her hair washed and blow dry we both then had to go home and my hair had to be straighten again then my mother washed her hair at home as the cleanliness was not up to satisfactory and my mother was quite disappointed in her experience at the salon especially on her birthday The power also glitched due to they don’t have enough funds for a quality salon, A lady also came in and the salon employees then laughed at the lady that asked if a perm would ruin her hair after the lady left and started speaking rudely spoke about the lady that was asking a question regarding her hair!!! I then contacted the hair salon and they never responded then they hanged up on me HIGHLY DO NOT RECOMMEND GO TO SALON EXPRESS SALON EXPRESS IS SO CHEAP AND AMAZING SERVICE. THE GOSNELLS MARKET SALON IS FILTHY AND SHOULD BE SHUT DOWN THIS IS THE WORST HAIR SALON I’VE...
Read moreSuper disappointing waxing service.
Usually the staff here are amazing; friendly, love having a chat, professional, get the job quickly, easily and as painlessly as possible.
Unfortunately the last time I went to get my Brazilian done (just this past Sunday), a young lady, that I’m guessing was new due to never seeing her before, did my waxing service. (I usually get a full Brazilian so super sensitive area). She appeared nervous to begin with and didn’t seem to know how to approach the situation.
I was not provided a towel to cover up which left me feeling quite vulnerable at the time. Following this, the conversation lacked severely which I find personally is a good way to relieve tension and anxiety. There was none. This young lady also repetitively waxed over the same spot (probably around 8-10 times) and took around an hour and 20 minutes to finish the full braz. She did not pull the skin taught and refused to let me do it for her during the service, resulting in the skin being torn right down the inner right thigh connection line and bruising all over. Wax was left all over the area and wasn’t removed, a number of clumps of hair also being missed and untweezed.
I don’t think I’ve ever actually CRIED receiving a waxing service until this experience. My best friend received a similar quality service from this young lady merely minutes before I did, however luckily it was on her legs.
Not a good outcome considering where my respect used to sit for this business...
