A FURIOUS client claims that she has been left with the “world’s s******t” eyebrows after she was allegedly pressured into getting them laminated.

Melissa Ryan, 21, from Bromley, Greater London, visited Cavendish Aesthetics to get lip fillers on March 9.

But during her treatment, she claimed that she was pressured into getting her brows laminated by a staff member who “wasn’t fully qualified.”

The grooming treatment left her brows looking twice their original size and extremely dark.

Disgusted by the final look, Melissa took to social media to review the salon and the service.

She said: “Whilst having my lips done I was offered to have my eyebrows laminated and tinted, I felt a bit put on the spot as you do when people try to upsell, but asked if this treatment would suit me and both Amanda and her colleague agreed I’d look great, so I agreed to have it.”

She continued: “I don’t like to publish my confidence issues to other people but I literally came home and cried, this has made me feel even worse about myself and my appearance.

“I was left looking like a complete fool. I probably could have done a better job myself blindfolded.”

The post has since been shared more than 1,000 times and has sparked hundreds of comments in response.”

An hour after the application Melissa sent a series of concerned messages to Amanda about the state eyebrows were left in.

Melissa asked that she be refunded £25 for her brows but the salon owner called her “rude” and told the 21-year-old that she was overreacting.

According to Melissa, the post has encouraged others to come forward, saying that they had work done at the salon that later needed fixing.

Melissa told KentLive: “I’ve tried to contact Amanda but haven’t gotten anywhere, this whole situation didn’t have to get out of hand like this if she didn’t allow unqualified people to do work.

“She hasn’t taken any sort of responsibility for what went on in her salon or what her employee did, she blocked my number so I couldn’t contact her that’s why I took to social media.

“I haven’t even received any sort of apology or my refund.”

The owner of the salon, Amanda Cavendish, has since spoken out against the “constant barrage of abuse” she has received.

The 56-year-old owner claims that she has received more than 700 messages since the post went viral.

She even had to report the alleged abuse to the police.

She told KentLive: “Staff are worried that someone will come in and cause problems, I’ve had clients cancel today.

“I don’t want to have anyone here put at risk. My husband is in work in London worried sick. And the Police are now involved – all because one person complained.”

Volunteers book hotel room for homeless man with SingapoRediscovers vouchers

NewsColony Volunteers book hotel room for homeless man with SingapoRediscovers vouchers © The Independent Singapore Singapore — A group of volunteers from the Mummy Yummy Singapore welfare organisation donated their SingapoRediscovers Vouchers to book a hotel room for a homeless man. The man, who was identified as Jayden, did not have a place to live while waiting for the Housing Board (HDB) to allocate him a rental flat. In a Facebook post on Mummy Yummy Singapore’s page on Wednesday (Dec 16), the volunteers said: “We used our $100 Rediscover Singapore vouchers to redeem hotel stay for him and successfully booked 9 days worth of stay at 3 days per voucher.” They added that they were unable to book a longer stay because of higher hotel rates over Christmas and New Year. The volunteers hoped that they would be able to bridge Jayden’s stay until he got a flat. “Thanks our government for giving us these vouchers which in return we can put them to good use for people in need,” th...

Disabled people are still vulnerable, even as COVID-19 normalizes their ‘special’ needs

Disabled people are still vulnerable, even as COVID-19 normalizes their ‘special’ needs NewsColony Perhaps it’s appropriate that public notices of the COVID-19 crisis began as an ableist cruelty. Health officials assured the nation that only the elderly and those with chronic health conditions would be seriously affected; most Americans (i.e., the normal people) would have only mild symptoms and be fine. x A friendly reminder: people who will be high-risk patients if we get coronavirus can hear you when you reassure everyone we’re the only ones who might die. Ã¢Â€Â” Alexandra Brodsky (@azbrodsky) February 29, 2020 Soon after the announcement of those assurances, the likelihood of high-risk people surviving was further limited by the people more likely to be fine. Shopping frenzies cleared stores of essential supplies needed everyday by many disabled people, like thermometers, hand wipes, masks, and IV infusion supplies. Accustomed to their needs ...

JANE FRYER: The judo master who made me the fall guy… aged 97!

NewsColony JANE FRYER: The judo master who made me the fall guy… aged 97! Jane Fryer is pictured above with Jack Hearn. ‘See, I’d get you round the neck and press on your Adam’s apple,’ he grins, silver moustache bobbing, white teeth flashing. ‘ And if I carried on with that, you’d be dead in a minute’ There is a startling moment in Jack Hearn’s extremely spick and span kitchen, when I’m standing between his trophy table and the wall and he’s telling me how he could finish me off with his huge, bearlike paws. ‘See, I’d get you round the neck and press on your Adam’s apple,’ he grins, silver moustache bobbing, white teeth flashing. ‘ And if I carried on with that, you’d be dead in a minute.’ We have already had a lively discussion about whether he should, or should not, throw me over one of his surprisingly wide shoulders on to his beautifully vacuumed living room floor. ‘I could throw you, of course I could! But I won’t,’ he says. ‘It’s not fair — you don’t know...
