I have been using this salon now for around 5 years, the service from start to finish is fab! Abby will always make some great suggestions for nail colours (especially when there are times they are short due to my bad habits) and she will always try to get me an appointment even though I often leave it to the last minute. Nails are usually done with Ebony who is excellent and very friendly, over the years I have had them done by Harman and recently Linda who are also fab and the shellac colours normally last 3-4 weeks. I have my eyebrows threaded and tinted and again excellent service and always great advice given. I would recommend this salon to all. Read Less

Really great eyebrow shape and really lovely staff. I told my threader that I am really fussy with my brows (having previously experienced them being threaded too much resulting in months and months of growing them back...!) and she really listened to what I was saying and threaded accordingly. Really happy with them and have been back quite a few times since. I don't think I would go anywhere else now. Plus, they are in a really accessible position near New Street Station so you can just pop in after work. Great atmosphere and they do other treatments too so I generally try to fit my eyebrows and nails in all in one trip! Will definitely be back. Read Less

Terrible eyebrow thread. I asked very specifically for only baby hairs to be removed. The therapist took way too much hair from the underneath making them much thinner than they have ever been and altering the shape. I have a good natural shape and like them thick and not looking too 'done'. I only have threading done to make makeup application smoother I never have them shaped. She dramatically altered the line and one is much thinner than the other. Did not listen to me at all and was very dismissive of my obvious upset. The salon ignored my email following the appointment. Therapist name was Jyoti. I would avoid this salon, it's essential that you listen to customers when you are working on their face, now I have to pencil in where she removed too much hair until they grow back, I would leave no stars if I could.

There are few things more traumatic than having hair ripped away from your skin when it's not done by en expert. I've had the horrors of my brows being massacred by a less than talented therapist, giving me the wonderful gift of two years of painful gappy regrowth. Waxing is the devil.Well, this drama has been left in the past now. I am now in a much happier relationship with the discovery of Kiran at Marco Benito. She has been shaping, and grooming my brows through the regrowth period using threading. Kiran has helped me to remain patient as I wait for the gaps in my brows to be filled, and a more flattery shape to be restored to my eye area. Brows really do make a face.Each treatment takes only a few minutes, and appointments are not necessary. Each appointment starts with a quick chat to make sure that it is clear what the end result is going to be from the threading session. Then the threading can begin. Once the hair removal is complete, Kiran applies soothing aloe vera to the brow area as it helps with any redness.I'm finally nearing a point in my brow story, where I can see the light at the end of the tunnel. Things are shaping up as they say. Only a few tiny gaps left in one brow, and my faith in threading will be restored. Thou shalt never wax thy brows is the moral of this story.You can prepay for five brow shapes, which gives you two additional ones for free. Keep hold of the prepaid card though, as it is the only way to claim your prepaid treatments.If you follow their Facebook page, then special offers are often shared there. Often brow tinting is free with a brow shape on Tuesdays if this is of interest to you. Worth noting that a patch test is required 48 hours before any tinting appointments though. Read Less

Although it's normally best to pre book your appointment, I was walking by and went in on the off chance they could thread my eyebrows and they fitted me in.I was asked to lay on the bed and use my hand to pull my skin tight around the eyebrow. The woman then literally wrapped what looked like string around her fingers and got to work!It wasn't as painful as I expected and afterwards I have to say, my eyebrows had never looked so primed. As well as threading the unwanted hair, they also trim your eyebrows giving you a really fresh clean cut look. Definitely worth trying. Read Less

Everyone loves Marco Benito. Literally. I've not met a single person who hasn't loved any treatment provided by this award-winning salon in the city centre. The service is always great: making you feel really relaxed and at ease. And there's a reason for this - you know you're in safe hands. Personally, I would recommend Marco's for all your eyebrow threading needs. I had no idea that eyebrows made that much of a difference to a face, but now I've been to Marco Benito's I'm never looking back. Who knew eyebrow threading could be this good? Read Less

Did you know that Birmingham's Marco Benito, a small salon tucked away in Piccadilly Arcade, was the creator of the behemoth of Benito Brow Bars now dotting the country in Debenhams and House of Fraser and other department stores?I found that out whilst getting a Shellac manicure by Eleni - who is absolutely amazing at getting rid of all the annoying little bits of skin around the nail, and does a BEAUTIFUL reverse-french manicure using Shellac which'll last 2+ weeks! (Mine was nude nails, black tips - HOT!) They do regular special offers - though their website has been 'coming soon' for what feels like a very long time.. no matter - if you pop in, you can grab a pricelist and they'll let you know what specials they're doing that month!

The salon ignored my email following the appointment. Therapist name was Jyoti. I would avoid this salon, it's essential that you listen to customers when you are working on their face, now I have to pencil in where she removed too much hair until they grow back, I would leave no stars if I could.

There are few things more traumatic than having hair ripped away from your skin when it's not done by en expert. I've had the horrors of my brows being massacred by a less than talented therapist, giving me the wonderful gift of two years of painful gappy regrowth. Waxing is the devil.Well, this drama has been left in the past now. I am now in a much happier relationship with the discovery of Kiran at Marco Benito. She has been shaping, and grooming my brows through the regrowth period using threading. Kiran has helped me to remain patient as I wait for the gaps in my brows to be filled, and a more flattery shape to be restored to my eye area. Brows really do make a face.Each treatment takes only a few minutes, and appointments are not necessary. Each appointment starts with a quick chat to make sure that it is clear what the end result is going to be from the threading session. Then the threading can begin. Once the hair removal is complete, Kiran applies soothing aloe vera to the brow area as it helps with any redness.I'm finally nearing a point in my brow story, where I can see the light at the end of the tunnel. Things are shaping up as they say. Only a few tiny gaps left in one brow, and my faith in threading will be restored. Thou shalt never wax thy brows is the moral of this story.You can prepay for five brow shapes, which gives you two additional ones for free. Keep hold of the prepaid card though, as it is the only way to claim your prepaid treatments.If you follow their Facebook page, then special offers are often shared there. Often brow tinting is free with a brow shape on Tuesdays if this is of interest to you. Worth noting that a patch test is required 48 hours before any tinting appointments though. Read Less

Although it's normally best to pre book your appointment, I was walking by and went in on the off chance they could thread my eyebrows and they fitted me in.I was asked to lay on the bed and use my hand to pull my skin tight around the eyebrow. The woman then literally wrapped what looked like string around her fingers and got to work!It wasn't as painful as I expected and afterwards I have to say, my eyebrows had never looked so primed. As well as threading the unwanted hair, they also trim your eyebrows giving you a really fresh clean cut look. Definitely worth trying. Read Less

Everyone loves Marco Benito. Literally. I've not met a single person who hasn't loved any treatment provided by this award-winning salon in the city centre. The service is always great: making you feel really relaxed and at ease. And there's a reason for this - you know you're in safe hands. Personally, I would recommend Marco's for all your eyebrow threading needs. I had no idea that eyebrows made that much of a difference to a face, but now I've been to Marco Benito's I'm never looking back. Who knew eyebrow threading could be this good? Read Less

Did you know that Birmingham's Marco Benito, a small salon tucked away in Piccadilly Arcade, was the creator of the behemoth of Benito Brow Bars now dotting the country in Debenhams and House of Fraser and other department stores?I found that out whilst getting a Shellac manicure by Eleni - who is absolutely amazing at getting rid of all the annoying little bits of skin around the nail, and does a BEAUTIFUL reverse-french manicure using Shellac which'll last 2+ weeks! (Mine was nude nails, black tips - HOT!) They do regular special offers - though their website has been 'coming soon' for what feels like a very long time.. no matter - if you pop in, you can grab a pricelist and they'll let you know what specials they're doing that month!
