This review is for Aria Hair, Wollongong NSW

I love going to Aria Hair for my hair appointments. I see Lisa and she's just wonderful, takes the time to talk to me about what I want and how I treat my hair to make sure I end up with a cut and colour that suits me perfectly.

The other staff are wonderful too, I'm always settled in with a nice cappucino and friand or cookie. And the head massages are to dye for ;)

At my last appointment I had Allysann and she also did a wonderful job, after much discussion, cut more off than I normally have done, which I'd been thinking about for a while and I'm so happy with the results :)

The products they use are Kerastase, so one of the higest quality products, and just glorious smelling, you'll see me doing lots of deep breaths when I'm at the basin - yum!

Approximate cost: $150

This review is for The Matchbox, Fairy Meadow NSW

I love The Matchbox!

Although they're only a tiny cafe, they have fantastic coffee and a great range of cakes and savoury items. The coffees are standard price - $3.50 for a small, and $4.20 for large with a 20c discount if you bring your own cup. But the bonus is if you want to try a different single origin coffee, there's no extra charge. And they have different single origin beans every week or so, so it's great to try coffees from different regions.

The food is really good, all made at the main University campus and delivered fresh each morning. A fantastic selection of hot and cold options options for lunch as well as sweets for when that sugar craving hits!

The team are great, amazing coffees thanks to Levi and Kerryn is just so friendly and helpful you always walk away with a smile on your face.

Definitely worth a try even if you don't work/study at the Innovation Campus.

This review is for Casamia, Fairy Meadow NSW

After buying my bras from discount department stores for the last 10 years or so, I thought I'd try Casamia. I expected after being specially fitted and with their premium brands I'd be much happier with the bra.

I don't know whether it was just a bad day, but after being there for 30 mins (I had my fitter's attention on and off as she spoke to the other staff member) and trying on quite a few bras, I ended up leaving with 3 bras that seemed to fit the best.

Over the next few days, I was less than impressed after wearing each of them for a full day. I even found (when I looked at the label on one) that it was one size lower in the band, and 3 or 4 sizes bigger in the cup than I normally wear! But even the other two were rubbing and tight by the end of the day.

I went back in to ask about the over/under sizing in that one bra, and she was going to offer a refund or exchange until I explained that after wearing it for a day it was so uncomfortable, so she said that since it had been worn she couldn't refund. She advised me to try to push the underwire in further and sew it in position so it didn't poke into me, but couldn't offer anything else.

I think I'll be sticking to my Big W bras from here since I know they're a whole lot more comfortable than these ones that were specially fitted to me!

I'm very disappointed at the huge waste of money since I had to chuck them out.

This review is for Dapto Osteopathic Clinic, Dapto NSW

Adam is a wonderful osteo who takes the time to sit down and talk to you first about what issues you may have and his plan for dealing with those issues before starting to work on you.

Adam is excellent at explaining why you're having that issue which shows that he has a really good understanding of the body and it's mechanics.

I really recommend this clinic for anyone with a bad back/neck/shoulder etc, or even with carpal tunnel.

This review is for Stayz, Sydney NSW

I've used the Stayz website a couple of times and my first experience was very, very good.

We got a big house with separate games room close to the beach on the South Coast for a very good price. The whole transaction was easy and the house was perfect for our holiday.

The second time I used them was a little disappointing, only because the owner of the property had leased it without showing it on the Stayz website so a property I had planned to holiday at wasn't available.

Definitely worth a look for a holiday, especially if you plan to stay more than a day or two.

This review is for Chicko's Chickens, Figtree NSW

These guys have the best chicken schnitzel burger around - it's absolutely massive, a good quality schnitzel, a choice of fillings with it and it comes with a free softdrink! I normally order the kids size (for only $5 or so which still comes with a free softdrink) and that's a perfect size for me.

Their salads are always nice and fresh, I love their rice pudding and the cakes look lovely... I say every time that I'm going to try them next time but never do (they're so big!).

My husband and I got takeaway from here one time and we were very disappointed. The veges were overcooked and bland and there was nothing special about the chicken. We won't be going back.

This review is for Cut It Out Mens Hairstylists, Figtree NSW

We had my 10 month old sons hair cut for the first time here. The guy we had (the youngest one) was fantastic. He took his time to do it right but also didn't waste time because a 10 month olds attention span in very short!

He also does my husbands hair and my husband is very happy with them.

This review is for Turkish Pide Charnwood, Charnwood ACT

Really good Turkish food. I love their kebabs and their Turkish banquet is excellent value for takeaway. Note that they give you heaps per serve, so order less than however many people you need it for.

Definitely takeaway only... Unless you like the normal fish and chip shop decor ;)
