Hi, I just wanted to ask how was your xtenso rebond at Hazel Luxury Salon at BGC? :)

Hello! Sorry I wasn't able to finish this post as I completely forgot about it. In any case, I had an awful experience at Hazel Luxury Salon in BGC. They didn't want to honor the services I bought from Metro Deal, I was downgraded and ripped off, plus my hair got damaged. Plus their salon was filthy, with roaches crawling all over their equipment and towels that they put on clients' heads! I don't know why Hazel Luxury Salon is still in business. Avoid at all cost!!

L’Oreal Xtenso Rebond from Hazel Luxury Salon in BGC - Part 1

I've been scouring online for a good deal on hair services and my research lead me to L'Oreal Xtenso Rebonding & Hair Color at Hazel Luxury Salon in BGC. I got the deal from Ensogo, and while this isn't the first time I bought something from the latter, this is the first time I ever came across Hazel Luxury Salon. Naturally, I wanted some good solid feedback regarding their reputation & services, unfortunately there weren't any online. I was a bit apprehensive about purchasing this particular deal due to the lack of reviews, but what won me over was the quaint interior design of the salon (based on their website) and that it's literally a 5-minute walk from my office in BGC.

So I made an appointment for a Sunday sesh. But when I got here, let's just say that the photos online were very misleading. So this is how it feels like when you're chatting with someone you met online and you finally meet up and they turn out to be nothing like the photos they sent you lol.

Uh oh. Not a good sign, right? What the hell, I'm here already and I already purchased the voucher online for PHP 1,399. Might as well give it a shot.

More details coming up on my next post...

First post, yay!

Congratulations dear reader, you are now at the front and center of my first post! Kudos to you for stumbling upon this little blog of mine :) So I've always been a bargain deal hunter, whether it be for travel, services, or beauty finds -- name it, I've probably bought it online. I've been dubbed by my friends as the "ultimate consumer" because I'm always at the mall (or browsing online) for awesome deals. I've been bitten by the travel and shopping bugs BIG TIME (why can't they bite someone else?) and this serves as an outlet of the good deals, reviews, and basic feedback about my good and definitely bad experiences.

Now, before you think that I'm just a serial shopaholic, let it be known that before I purchase something, I try to research as extensively as I can. Which leads me now to how this blog came to be. Some services / products being posted in deal coupon sites such as Metro Deal and Ensogo don't have much reviews online, so more often than not, it's unclear if we're really getting a "deal" or just hitting ourselves in the head. Here's hoping my reviews can help you guys make smarter decisions in the future. Cheers! :)
