This review is for Anton's Hairdressing, Canberra ACT

After hearing really good things about Anton's I booked in for a style cut and colour. The were REALLY overbooked when I had my appointment. The girl washing my hair seemed bored and didn't bother to give me a proper head massage. The colourist was so busy that she left the colour in my hair for over half an hour more than it was meant to be in for. My scalp started to feel as though it was burning. When the colour was washed out, my scalp was the same colour as my hair (a brown/purple colour) and actually stayed that way for over a week after I left. The hairdresser was busy when it was time to get my haircut, so I was waiting for another half an hour while she finished with another customer. When she was ready, she only spent about 5 minutes on my hair. I felt extremely rushed. The cut was nothing special, but by that time, I just wanted to get out of there. I do not reccomend going to Anton's. You are better spending your money at another hairdresser.

The servings are very generous and the price is very reasonable. Their dips are delicious and the food is very fresh. Not a great place to take a date or for a romantic dinner, but if you want good, filling food at a great price, it's the place to go!

Approximate cost: $20

The food here is amazing. I had never tried Ethiopian food before, but I had heard good things about Ferteke's. We had the shared mix platter where you get to try a bit of everything. The Doro Wat is fantastic, and the yellow split pea dhal is to die for. The service is also great, they take the time to go through the meals and explain exactly what they are so you don't get any suprises.

Approximate cost: $30

Bulk billing health service with quite a few doctors available. Staff are always helpful and try to fit you in to see the doctor, especially if you really need to see someone.

This review is for Shine Haircutters, Canberra ACT

I went for the first time to Shine. Everyone was friendly, the girl who washed my hair was really nice and gave a GREAT head and neck massage. Michael was really great, asks you what you want and always makes sure that he keeps asking you if you like what he's doing during the haircut, so you know that you'll get what you want. Great experience and the price was also really good.

Approximate cost: $65
