i like it!!!!!
as far a pricing goes,,, they are far too expensive for around me area, but if people are willing to pay that... go for it!!!!
you would be daft to lower prices if thats the going rate and being charged at salons elsewhere. you know yourself as a therapist and charge for what you feel your worth

Hi Heather,

I look at salon and therapist websites all day every day for my job, I see some great ones, I see some ropey ones, I see plagiarised ones, and sites where they make your eyes want to bleed with an over explosion of colour and information, and on the rare ocassion, a great one!

I think your prices are irrelevant, and I didn't actually think you were asking about prices, but about the site in general, so I'll hopefully give you some constructive criticism on that.

I like the colour and the layout, it makes it easy to read.

You talk about yourself in the 3rd person, you would be better doing it in the 1st. Talk about yourself, not as though someone else is doing it. You'll get your personality across, something that's very important, particularly if you're working as a mobile and going into people's homes.

As for layout, it's clean and easy to navigate.

You definitely need to specify some brand names. You'll find a lot of people will book you based on the products that are used. We're all very familiar with Dermalogica's face mapping, and so so many women book dermalogica therapists, purely because they've heard about this infamous face mapping!

May I suggest that you rethink the names of your treatments though. Your site is clean, crisp and stylish, very professional-woman-in-her-30s, but the names have dropped it down to 20-something-straight-out-of-uni-still-living-a-student-binge-lifestyle...

As I've said before, pricing is irrelevant, if the products you use are reflective of those prices, then stand by them. Although that might be a factor in why you are struggling to pick up new clients initially, so maybe go back and look at your direct competition again.

Hope that's helped a little.

I'm not going to comment on the prices, you've obviously set them to be right for your area.

You do need someone to read through it and reword some of it though. There are a few things that don't sound too good. For instance, on the 'About' page, under Work and experience, you use the word 'prestigious' three times in three paragraphs. There must be another word you can use? It just sounds like a bit of overkill, if you know what I mean. I also noticed a few errors in the grammar which need sorting out.

I assume you know that none of the links work, and that it's because the site is a work in progress.

And I agree with what SamMakeup says, re talking about yourself in the third person, and using product names.

With a few tweaks it's going to be a really nice website. I think it's smart, clean and easy to use.

Something that also stood out for me is the dates of your employment as you seem to have moved around a lot in a short period of time, maybe the dates are not so important to mention and also are you still working at Bliss spa as it seems from the info that you are I talk about myself in the third person on my website too and have "quotes" from myself too add the personal touch as I feel sounds better but that's personal preference.

Just checked out bliss spa prices-wowzer!
