    I have just walked out of this place. The customer service is unbelievably bad - I strongly advise do not go here! I have just moved back from london and needed a new Botox lady and this place looked like they knew what they were doing… I arrived about 5 minutes before my appointment it was 15 minutes before I even got acknowledged - even though both ladies came out multiple times, I was completely ignored and I didn’t even get a hello which is just appalling, why wouldn’t you be curious as to why a woman was just standing in your shop? I understand you are a busy shop, but a simple hello to awaiting customers is the absolute bare minimum you can do, especially if you have never met them before. I don’t mind about a wait as it is common, but to be completely ignored made me feel extremely uncomfortable. I’ve honestly never experienced something like this before when going into a shop! Then another lady was taken in before me which is no problem apart from Chloe went to take her in and I was ignored again, she didn’t even look at me and I was just left there without a hello or anything, it was so strange! She never introduced herself at any point! I’m starting to get annoyed by this point. It’s just so bizarre! Eventually 10 minutes into my appointment Chloe comes out and had no idea what I had booked into, she had no idea she was even running behind, or what time my appointment was, no idea I was a new client and did not seem to care, which was worrying. I asked her ‘Do you not even know what I’m having done?’ She said no - Even though I explained that I had phoned several timand had had a full consultation on the phone about what I wanted and then I was sent the link to book online - I booked in the 3 areas as instructed by the person on the phone, I phoned back after booking my appointment to clarify, and she said not to worry it wouldn’t be a problem at all and she would let Chloe know - yet the owner Rachel still blames me for the booking error, even after several phone calls to her team after my booking? There is no accountability at all - says it all really! Yet they were completely unaware when I got there, and all they keep doing was blaming me for booking the appointment??? When I was just following THEIR instructions, even when I told Chloe that I phoned up to clarify and double check, and she just said ‘oh you probably spoke to Rosy’ with no justification. Wow! Especially when I had booked and phoned to clarify, Yet they continued to blame the customer for THEIR lack of communication, it’s Just disgraceful. Chloe said she would ‘squeeze it all in anyway’ even though her next appointment had already arrived. It all felt extremely unorganised and unprofessional. Her next client didn’t seem best pleased, but as I said it’s not about the wait, it is about the service - at least she got acknowledged unlike me. Then I was asked to fill out the form, which if they had acknowledged my arrival, I could of completed whilst the other lady was being finished. I told them about my parking concerns as i had been in there for 30 minutes already. Chloe said not to worry I’ll get you done before then, it won’t take long and then started rushing about. I was a 5 minute walk from my car and went out to put extra money on it, but to be honest after THAT experience, I just got into my car and drove off. I’m not being rushed when I’m paying that amount, that’s when mistakes get made. Botox is expensive but worth every penny, however there was no way I wanted to give it to her after her carelessness. I have been having Botox for almost 8 years and never have I been treated like this before! DO NOT GO HERE! Absolute shambles! I am absolutely furious with the way I was treated as a new customer! I would not go here if you were expecting any kind of service - they will only blame the customer! I would suggest taking some accountability for your actions Rachel, instead of blaming your customers for your inability to communicate properly as a team! Please happily keep my deposit - put it towards a customer service course!

    Beautiful clinic, exceptionally hygienic. I was really dubious about using a different clinic but Rachael really put me at ease. So happy with my results and the aftercare advice. Will definitely be going back and recommending to others. Thank you!

    First time getting filler was quite nervous. Everyone was soo lovely and smiley and the procedure was over so quickly. Didn’t hurt half as much as i expected. Absolutely in love with the results ❤️❤️

    I booked for a tattoo removal on my brows. When I went there, chloe explained for me that how my brows gonna looked after the procedure for a few days. And she told me it’s up to me if I want to carry on or cancel my appointment. I decided to cancel my appointment as I couldn’t stay at home for a few days until my brows get healed. They gave me fully refund in spite of the fact that it was my fault and I had to do research before booking. I am a beautician and have a beauty salon, I know how valuable is when a salon staff doesn’t think about only getting money and don’t care about their clients. Even though I haven’t done the removal but their behaviour for me was absolutely valuable. Thank you so much

    THE BEST in Southampton. I have had multiple treatments with different staff members at Rachael Katie and never once left unsatisfied. They are professional, friendly and amazing at what they do! More importantly affordable and the most gorgeous salon! 100% recommend.

    Chloe was fabulous as my practitioner for my first experience with Rachael Katie Cosmetics. I went for the classic technique and showed my reference photo wherein she moulded my lips to look as similar to the reference as possible while still suiting my own face and features. It’s been a day now and I’m so in love with my new lips. Best one yet, for sure!

    The staff are always very friendly, I come here regularly for my vitamin boosts but today I had an IV drip done by Katie and it was brilliant! Very clean, polite and great customer service

    Rachael’s attention to detail is exceptional. She won’t recommend a procedure if she believes you don’t need it - so important for genuine guidance on aesthetics. Love her clinic and excellent client service. Thank you!

    This is my new go-to aesthetic clinic. I did three PRP appointments with Shannen and have seen good results. I'm planning more treatments with them. Very professional staff and their prices are the best in Southampton.

👍 Large store with a good selection, only reason for docking a star is it would be helpful if they had signs or something to find what you need. Not many staff milling about to ask for help and had to go down most aisles to find what I needed.
