Natalie recently did my makeup for my wedding on 7/14/13, as well as my four bridesmaids, mom and…read moremom-in-law. She was soo great! She did she an outstanding job with all of us, we all arrived to the wedding feeling so beautfiul. I found Natalie on yelp and was a little nervous about having her do my make-up without knowing what she'd be like in advance. I decided to do a pre-trial run through and was blown away by her professionalism and talent. She did such an excellent job, I was so excited to find her. She used great products, and did a phenomenal job of balancing a natural but elegant look. I decided to go with the airbrush makeup, which I would highly recommend- it stayed throughout the night! My bridemaids and moms also loved her! Some of them are pretty particular about getting their makeup done, and they were fully impressed and complimentary about Natalie! She is an absolute sweetheart and a true professional- I would highly recommend Natalie for any event!

Amazing job and so great to work with!…read more I researched Natalie because I had heard about airbrush make-up and she's the only one in the area who offers it... I'm so glad I found her! I did a trial with her before the wedding and she was so pleasant to work with, not to mention she did a great job. She took her time and made sure I was 110% satisfied with what she had done, continuing to get my opinion along the way, not every make-up artist will do that. She came on sight the day of the wedding and everything was perfect! The airbrush looked flawless and I didn't have to touch up the whole night! I got so many compliments on my make-up, and really enjoyed having Natalie be a part of my big day!

This really is my go to place to get my brows done. I came here once several years ago on a whim…read more My first visit, I had my brows "mapped". As a consumer skeptic, I thought it was just a scam to make me feel like the price was worth it. But, then I saw the finished product and was wowed. The Brow Bar has had some turnover in the years that I've been going and each time my regular girl left, I'd think to myself - "Now is the time to break free from the more costly brow wax and go somewhere new." And, I did - more than once. And, every time I left those places not happy with the product. When that product is on your face 24/7 - you want to be satisfied. So, back I went to Ulta. If you are looking for a superior brow experience and result, visit the Brow Bar at Ulta. Personally - I think Betty is the best!

I love getting my brows waxed at the Benefit Brow Bar at Ulta. They do other facial waxing and…read moreother services but the only thing I've had done is the eyebrow waxing. Christie and Betty do an excellent job and they are both really nice girls. Eyebrow waxing is $20 before tipping. Believe me girls, it is worth it. Yes you can go to a nail salon and get your brows waxed for like $10, but you'll get home and finish plucking them yourself (been there, done that). At the Benefit Brow Bar I've never had to go home and finish the job. They are perfect! Once I get them waxed here I'll pluck them myself for a couple months, following the shape. Once they start getting a little wonky though, I'll let them grow in a bit before coming back to get them perfected again. While they are doing your brows, they'll teach you how to use their products so you can make them look just as good at home. They will also put some concealer on you so your face isn't all red and puffy when you leave the store. Benefit make-up is my favorite brand. I wear the lightest shade of brow zings and have been using the same one for about a year. Yes, Benefit brand make up is more expensive than say Ulta's brand or Revlon, L'Oreal etc. but it lasts a really long time and it's higher quality.

Right in front of The building... skip the street parking and enjoy your relaxing spa day even more. The location is gorgeous, sun-lit and very inviting. No one else was there when I showed up at 130 on a Saturday so it felt very private. The facial was so relaxing and JUST what I needed this winter. It was luxurious and made my skin feel brand new! Vanessa was so nice and easy to work with! She made me feel so relaxed and right at home. They also have a private room in the front of the spa for parties, weddings and special events! You can bring in some bubbly with your friends and get pampered. That actually sounds like an amazing bachelorette party - spa day and then Old Port shenanigans? Yes please!

I and all the bridesmaids received so many compliments on our hair and feel extremely fortunate to have worked with her and her assistant. She is an extremely talented stylist and her professionalism and easy going demeanor were such an asset. She called in advance before arriving and kept to the schedule. Upon arriving, she arranged a work space and got straight to working. We had sent her pictures in advance of the hair styles we preferred and she had them handy and mirrored them picture perfect!

Every other artist I've been to, prior to Christine, ended up giving me more warmth than I wanted. I will never go to anyone else. I highly recommend her!

About 1 year ago I started seeing Joseph Richard for my back issues from being a full-time…read morehairstylist. My shoulders were tilted forward and my posture was completely off alignment and I was hurting. After my first session Joseph explained to me what I needed to be doing at home to help fix the problem in between my appointments with him. I did exactly as he told me and within a couple weeks I started seeing huge results and feeling myself again. During each session he would explain to me how I ended up in such bad shape. He gave me more of a clear understanding of what exactly he was doing to my muscles and why it is important to continue doing what I'm doing at home for strengthening. Visiting him every 4 weeks for regular maintenance to adjust my muscles and release my fascia has been keeping me going as a full-time stylist. I'm so grateful he knew what was wrong with me and helped me fix an extremely painful situation. Along with this five-star review I have a picture of Joseph's beautiful massage room at Jonathan Douglas.
