Lakme Complaints & Reviews

Hi, i had got a qod hair treatment done on 19/07/19 by paying rs 8000/-. They assured me it would last for an year. But the treatment didn't even last for two weeks. On enquiring back they asked me to come for hair spa by again paying rs 1800/-. It's unfair they just want to do business by cheating customers to only charge extra money. I want this corrected by atleast doing it again for no additional cost and assure me the result for one year. Else refund my money and other costs.

I did a qod which was anti frizz treatment for hair from lakme powai branch which they said will last for 5-6 months and which was very expensive one but the treatment dint even last for one month. I visited their branch to show them the hair effect has faded away but they sent me back saying the hair stylist was not available. Also i sent photos of the hair to the hair stylist who did my treatment but he didn’t revert back since then. Days have passed but i dint get any call from them or even that stylist. I am demanding my money to be refunded because i dun want to waste my time again on that useless treatment.

Dear sir/ ma'am
This complain is regarding about makeup faculty of lakme academy powered by aptech of moradabad branch in uttar pradesh,.
They had given advance make artistry course for 2 months.. But still the teacher, who is training us about makeup didn't know anything.. And if we put up some questions they just start their tantrums that i'll resign from here orelse we'll put fine on students.. Only on putting up some questions...!
So basically this mail which i'm sending you is on behalf of makeup student and i'm a hair student of same academy but i had completed my advance makeup artistry course from lakme academy powered by aptech from delhi, ranjendra place branch.. So there are so many issue's over here like related to incomplete equipments of hair's.. And no knowledge about makeup to a teacher.. I have much to say but words are not enough that's why i thought i should mail you.. And this is a request please send someone from your side to make things clearout!! I was also a lakme student but i can say and tell with confidence that how much i know about makeup and face shape each and everything related to makeup.. But here the makeup teacher didn't even telling how to use derma palatte.. Even she don't know bridal looks or there name or eye makeup n there's names too!!
We all seriously need your help asap!!
They're given advance makeup course only for 2 months.. Like seriously.. We don't have book's for theory sections orelse not even printouts of particular theme or colour theory, face shapes, eyeshapes,.. It looks like they have concern only with money... And having no interest in teaching... So it's a request from all students who are really having concern for their future or the money they're paying for, obviously!!
So please do help us out..!!
And it's a request from my side to keep my name confidential!!
Because i can proudly say i know more then them, so some kind of jealousy they have for me or i can say they don't like me.. Because i always put questions where i see something is not going right!!
Thankyou so much..
Eagerly waiting for your response,
Have a good day.

One month back i book an appointment at lakme (Nellore) for make up, they said that they will provide professional makeup with mac products with 6, 500 ₹. On 29 th may i visited lakme salon (Nellore) and they did makeup they said that they will use only mac products for that package but believe me they did not used mac products and not even a proper beautician she is not at all a beautician. I am lakme customer at hyderabad so i book appointment for make up just because i believe in lakme but this is my worst experience so now i stopped visiting lakme even in hyderabad also. Please maintain some minimum standards we believe in lakme so that only we spent on that 6500 or 7 k for makeup is not a small thing right u should maintain minimum standards worst salon i had ever seen. Just because of this u lost a customer like me and i will inform about this to all of my friends and family so that even they will not visit ur salon.

Hygiene -
Wax container is always open.
Spatula used to apply wax is same for multiple clients and never sterilized and washed.
Container of powder used to apply before waxing has wax and hair stuck on it.
Disposable sheets are used multiple times for multiple clients.
Towels are not changed between clients.
Unhygienic and unwashed towels and sponges are used while clean up and facial which stink.
You could smell food from the staffs hands while clean up and facial.

Service quality:
Many patches are missed while waxing and staff doesn't check properly.
Waxing is done harshly and carelessly which is very painful and often peels of the skin causing irritation and bruises.
Threading of eye brows causes tares and bleeding in skin.

Staff:
Staff is under-qualified and under trained.
Lacks basic etiquette.
Had to face appointment issues all the time and instead of taking responsibility and solving the appointment issues the staff blames the customer for not double checking after booking.
Rude and very unprofessional behavior and staff tries to coarse customer in opting for unnecessary extra services; and to select costlier options services.

Hello Sir/Madame,

I visited Lakme Salon yesterday at Bhilwara for the first time for taking hair cut services. And at that time Hair Specialist Mr. Ankur gave the shampoo SKP Anti dandruff Shampoo and TIGI SF Serious Conditioner to me without stating the fact about the ingredients in it. Further when I came home I have checked with my doctor for the same products and my doctor told me not to use that shampoo as I am allergic to it and I have Eye issue if I use this shampoo.

Keeping this I reached the Lakme Salon today and asked them for the refund because these products are of no use to me. They started stating various excuses. I want refund and I dont want any exchange of product nor I want any service from the Salon.

I have visited the salon first time and I am highly disappointed from the service which you provide to your customer. Thought that it will be solved at local level but they said we cannot do anything and talked to customer care they said we cannot do anything then tell us who will solve our problem.

I will never recommend anyone to visit such salon where you fool your customers and do not give any solution.

I had ordered an item from lakme's online site and already prepaid an amount of RS.399. They mailed me that they would be sending me confirmation details regarding the order. But they didn't. Instead I got message that they cancelled my order due to inconvénience caused for delivery location. When I placed the order for the item, it didn't mention the unavailability of my delivery location. I got message from lakme team (Mr. Gautam Kohli) stating that they would be refunding my cash within 3-7 days. But they didn't. Its been more than 12 days i placed the order and they (lakme) cancelled it. I request through this platform to help me to speak up and take action against Lakme india for being deceitful to their customers and testing the patience of customers. I need my refund to be credited without further delay.

Please do the needful.i bought these lipsticks 2 days before.

Hello lakme team..
Yesterday i got i call from [protected] on the behalf of lakme fashion week. He was telling his name sameer malhotra. His truecaller name is satyam mishra. He got my no from a friend's reference. He told me that i have won few lakme products, one manish malhotra saree and other branded products. All will be without any charge. He said there is a promotional policy going on, in which selected candidate will be given free products.. He started from very simple questions about cosmetics but then he shifted to very personal questions like body measurements, home address for delivery and other personal things.. He has taken two references and he continuing calling further. Dear lakme team this is very wrong to enquire about anyone's personal information on company name.. You guys plz take action against this person..

When i asked why company is providing this stuff to me then he said it's their promotional policy.. But for this i have to answer few questions.. Firstly he asked very general question about cosmetic and daily use products but then he shifted to very personal questions like body measurements, home address.. This is very wrong to intervene someone's privacy on company name.. He asked for two references too.. He is continously calling my other friends by taking two references from every one.. Dear lakme plz take action against this person. He is spoiling good image of lakme brand..

I have done permanent hair staraightning on 10th may 2019, which states clearly "permanent" but haven't last for 3 days.in the first wash it self my hairs were frizzy and wavy.. Visited salon asked for resolution but in response they washed my hairs applied heavy quantity of hair mask then serum and dry and sent me back..in the parlor itself other customers were wondering about the streightning. This is my second time, first experience was from l'oreal and was truly satisfied this time lakme salon used schwarzkopf products very disappointed from such a reputed salon service. It has failed to meet my expectation. Please give me a solution for this. I need the perfect result for spending so much worth of money. Hoping for lakme to take this seriously and find me a solution, serious actions need to be taken for such cases from big brands for the sake of customers believe.

I visited lakme saloon at 100 ft road bathinda on 12.05.19 at 5:30 pm. I had online appointment package of argan oil wax with bill amounting rs 950. I asked for a single strip lower back argan oil wax. At the bill counter i was asked to pay rs 500 for mere a single strip wax. When i asked about the charged amount. She couldnt explain and asked just to make a full payment in a rude manner. My complaint is not about the money its about poor explanation and rude behaviour with clients.

I hot hair therapy done they did charge my 10, 000 for a therapy which was same as 8500 one just saying it will bring good results but when i washed my hairs 3 days after they came in original condition so the hair designer guy agreed he made a mistake but to improve it he made me a fool again because i had to take flight next day and didn’t get time to wash hairs in india now m in canada and my hairs are same even after 10, 000 spending and no results at all just because that guy made mistake and nothing in compensation done

This was the second time i visited lakme salon located in preet vihar delhi, the worst hair color services recieved by a highly unprofessional team working there.. Its not even a month and my hairs are turning grey.. Fading the color that i got. Would never recommend anyone to visit that unprofessional salon.. Morover i was not given a birthday discount that was applicable for my service. A team of cheaters i would say.. I need a compensation for this

I am a regular customer of lakme from last 1 year. I have applied for corporate discount by submitting details.
Now from before a month lakme has stopped applying corporate discount on friday, saturday and sunday.
Working ladies got time only on weekends and now they have stopped allying it.
So as a customer my concerns are
1- why this was not informed to customer by sms
2- why it is removed on weekends? As mostly parlor tasks are done on weekends only
3- why it is only applicable on selected services like hair and facial why it is not on all?

As a customer i expect and deserve to be informed well before planning my visit to lakme. They should not fool customer by saying they are eligible for discount but actually not giving it.
Also if any customer has applied for such discount he/she is not allowed to have any other discount.

I have done protein treatment on 9th of feb 2019, which is going to last for 6 to 7 months. But it haven't lasted not even for 1month even after spending so much amount of money and also taken proper care. Very much dissatisfied with the services. It has started to become dry and frizzy. Even though lakme is a reputed salon, it has failed to meet my expectation. Please give me a solution for this. I need the perfect result for spending so much worth of money. Hoping for lakme to take this serious and find me a solution...

This is the second time i have visited yesterday i. E 26th april around 6:45 pm at same counter of lakme located in shoppers stop viviana mall thane. The 2 ladies working there are so arrogant that it seems that we are buying lakme products for free. No selling attitude, no respect for the customer coming towards that counter. Completely disappointed!!!

I ordered lakme sunscreen online 4-5days ago and it arrived in just two days next day i applied it on my face and next before stepping out for office.in the afternoon itself my face, eyes and neck started to itch and in the evening my whole face swelled and next day morning i was looking horrible. I had to take a leave since i was looking like an alien and i didn't want to go to work with that face. Applied ice and washed my face multiple times with water still no luck so had to consult a doctor next day and had to spend a fortune. Please don't use this product especially if you have sensitive skin.
