The center of Moscow is literally filled with beauty studios, hairdressing and nail salons from popular bloggers, singers and TV presenters. Why Russian stars open their own "beautiful" business, and whether it brings tangible income, told "Sobesednik.ru".
TV presenter Ksenia Borodina, who gained popularity thanks to "Dom-2", makes a living not only on TNT. The network of her beauty salons has existed in the capital for a long time. They offer customers a wide range of services at very high prices, but the reviews of visitors, as well as the rating of the salon on the Web, leave much to be desired. Most of all the girls who applied to the TV salon are outraged by the service.
“I drove with the thought that something cool was waiting for me. But I was confronted with horror. I was greeted by the master with the phrase:“Come in”, and I stayed with the administrator. But I don’t know where to go. I got up and decided to wait for her. that she with such a negative face went to see me off … I was surprised that there were no disposable slippers. That is, I walked barefoot from chair to chair on the cold and dirty floor, writes a certain Svetlana, who came for laser hair removal.
"Awful salon. All craftsmen, apparently feeling the 'unique' care of their mistress, behave like rude boors," LeraLera reports.
The interior of the salons is decorated with photographs of Borodina and her daughter - they look at visitors from literally every wall.
Model Anastasia Reshetova also runs her own business. She has a clinic (where you can get various beauty injections, visit a dentist, take a course of hair removal or try hardware cosmetology) and a beauty salon near the Smolenskaya metro station. The prices in it are also "star", but the ratings are kept at a fairly high level.
"I trust my appearance only to the masters of my salon! I also use cosmetics that are sold here. This is a real indicator of trust," Reshetova does not hesitate to advertise for the salon in her Instagram account.
Another former TV show participant, Alena Vodonaeva, also boasts her own beauty salon in the center of Moscow. The girl often appears in advertising for the salon and actively uses its services, which, of course, is a good marketing ploy.
The beauty studio does not have an official website. Obviously, the star hostess is counting on the fact that loyal followers from Instagram will come to her as clients.
Actress Anna Khilkevich, a well-known lover of long and well-groomed nails, opened a manicure salon near Novoslobodskaya metro station. The rating of this place is very high - 4.4, and there are many positive reviews.
"Convenient location, atmosphere, you feel alone. Staff, excellent quality of services, perfect cleanliness. Compliance with all requirements in connection with the epidemic", - writes the client Ekaterina.
It is worth noting that representatives of the salon react to negative customer reviews on the Web, which also occur and are often associated with somewhat inflated, in the opinion of visitors, prices for services.
And the famous showman Rustam Solntsev admitted that he had long been disillusioned with the salon business. Ten years ago, he opened his beauty center, but now he does not even want to remember about it.
"Well, what kind of money making ?! This is complete nonsense and it's not worth it. All these salons are not a business, if only a debit with a credit came together, and that's good. This is a solid hemorrhoid. I earned two thousand dollars from this and bought with them Louis Vuitton bag, which was recently stolen from me. That's all the profit ", - Rustam Solntsev threw up his hands.
