Easy to navigate, free to advertise, great site. Be wary of scammers if you're selling. Also handy for backpackers and students needing ride share or couch surfing contacts.

This review is for Piercing Planet, Brisbane QLD

I brought some jewelery here, it was cheap. While I was waiting another customer asked the head piercer if she did a piercing commonly known in body modification culture, the piercer had no idea what she was talking about. They wouldn't do a taper insertion for me, from a 14GA to a 12GA because it was 'too risky'- they still sold me the stuff I needed to DIY. I don't care about the cheap silver jewelery, I won't shop there again and there's no way I'd recommend it to someone wanting a piercing.

I do love their products- I had a sample pack and it smelt so good and I was looking forward to see how it went since I'm really starting to love organic products. Unfortunately it didn't really seem to 'go' with my skin, I felt oily and oilier after using the combination skin pack. A little moisturizer went a long way so that means value to me. I love the mascara!!!

The mineral baths are great but the staff are a bit rude, they're really cheap and you get what you pay for.
My friend was taken to a room 15 minutes before I was, and finished up as I was finishing my extra treatment so she had at least an extra 30 minutes for her massage/facial despite us both getting the same special. She was satisfied with her treatments. I had a sugar scrub as well, which was lovely. I had an awful experience otherwise- the 'hydrating' facial made my skin peel and break out the following week due to over exfoliation and light chemical burns from the mask I had to ask the therapist several times to remove. The Swedish massage was very poorly done to the extent my back ached for days afterwards.
Had the owner/manager replied to my emailed complaint with an offer to refund the massage/facial or do them again I would have given them another go, but it took almost two months of contacting them and a rather lengthy discussion that seemed to go in circles before I was refunded the price of my facial.

Approximate cost: $150

I had a massage and facial, very relaxing and professional. A bit on the pricey side but I think I definitely got what I paid for.

I find the staff at BPH always friendly and helpful, happy to give advice, the prices are great and my dog loves to come for a visit. The $10 hydrobath on weekends is awesome too.

I have two cats who have been going to see this vet all their lives (4 years). I adopted an adult dog a few months ago and he was very helpful with some questions I had, even the silly ones, and was most helpful with giving me some advice to help her settle in.

I love to look up reviews before I buy, and this is the easiest site to access trusted reviewers. You can't always trust the randoms on other sites.

I've been here three times, the first time I had a gift card for a facial and it was very relaxing but didn't do much for my skin. The second time I had a face wax, overpriced but fair results. The third time I had a full leg and g-string wax- it was the most painful wax I've ever had and massive strips were missed. I was refunded my money when I came back the next day to show the manager.
Nice staff, but I don't love the salon and feel like they could do with better training.

Approximate cost: $70
