Wax burns

Absolutely terrible experience - do not recommend. I went in for a simple underarm wax and walked out with what looks like a chemical burn on both sides. The service was done by someone named Raj, and I suspect they used extremely poor-quality wax or strips. The skin under my arms is now red, inflamed, and burning nonstop. It's not just uncomfortable--it's genuinely painful, and I'm worried it will leave permanent marks. There was no hygiene protocol followed, no sensitivity check, and zero care taken during the process. This is absolutely unacceptable and negligent. I trusted this place with my skin, and they completely failed me. Please, if you care about your skin, avoid this place. I wouldn't wish this experience on anyone.

Love this design !

Shamsha is a fantastic artist with a steady hand. All the staff were polite and welcoming!!! Plus they have beautiful jewelry!! Love this place and will definitely be going back. Great threading and waxing technicians and hair stylists!!! This place has everything. So glad I found them.

Literally got waxed!

My pic should say it all!!! I normally end up coming out of this place with minor scars, but this time I got ripped off real bad while waxing!

Shamsha did a meticulous and beautifully intricate mehendi or henna design on my hands. However, the dye is drying and it is coming out extremely light, which is disappointing. I am following her instructions to not wash my hands in any way until the next day, so I am waiting to see if the color darkens but I do doubt it. That said, it was a pleasant experience. She was very welcoming and checked in to gather my input throughout the process. The price was a little high but warranted considering how time consuming it was. The service was friendly and homey, but like I said, the end result is very light and faded. A higher quality Mehendi should be used in the future so that it comes out dark.

Every girl has head it before, "this wax is the best" "it won't hurt that much because the wax is…read moreso awesome", and every time they are lying. Brazilians hurts like hell. But after looking online (because I was in the area) I found European Wax Center and it had good reviews. So I did the whole thang. I was a new client, there was a great special, (%50 off your first Brazilian!) and then all I had to do was wait for my specialist. Ali came out, great energy and smile, and took me back to the room. And again there was the "this is great wax" conversation. Like always I nodded and smiled knowing full well that I was still going to want to die from how painful it was going to be, BUT then she started. She explained everything to me and I literally had to look down just to make sure she was even doing it! I mean of course there were a few small ouch moments, how could there not be, but I was blown away that for the first time in my life they weren't lying. The wax WAS AMAZING and Ali made me feel like I was her new best friend. It was over before I even knew it. Honestly I feel like everyone probably thought I was crazy because I couldn't stop raving about how amazing and "pain free" (as pain free as waxing can get) it was. I highly recommend Ali and I highly recommend European Wax Center!!

I was burned for the final time at this location. I've been coming here for years and things were…read morereally good when Lorna was the manager and when she was a wax specialist. Over the last few months, though, I have been consistently burned. The first occasion I actually called and complained to which they told me that waxer had since been fired. It had been less than a week, but okay. They said they'd put a note on my account to keep the wax temperature lower. I have to say, I went with Ashley after this and she is great. She is probably the best waxer at this location. She's nice to talk to and is no BS. She knows what she's doing. Unfortunately her schedule doesn't really work with mine so I've booked with whoever is available. Pretty unfortunate I'd say because I continue to get burned but this last time was really bad. Thankfully I'm not scarred but my skin was not just red, but was peeling from the temperature of the wax. Before it started peeling it was flakey, which was pretty scary. I texted the center asking for a call from the manager. She did call but I missed it- when I followed up via text she never answered. That just shows the kind of managerial staff is hired here and how the leadership trickles down to the waxers. I have been in a management position in a gym before and I would continue to follow up if I didn't hear back from someone who got hurt or injured. I have since cancelled future appointments at this location. I would have asked for a refund on my wax pass but I never even got the chance to ask. When you spend over $500 on a package, you should be getting quality service... or at least a call back/ follow up text. BTW, she gave me her personal cell phone number to call and never answered. When I called a different location and let them know I need the wax temperature lower, they said that it's standard procedure not to keep it too hot and were shocked at what I told them. Thankfully I can use the wax pass at any location, which is exactly where I'm taking my business, somewhere other than the Plainview location.

Neelu's Khubsoorat Beauty Salon has been my "go to" on Long…read moreIsland for about 10 years now. The service is top notch and the atmosphere is always warm and welcoming. I always choose Neelu herself because she consistently delivers the best style-no matter what it is. I leave her chair feeling confident every time, knowing my hair is in the hands of someone who truly cares about her craft. I've tried other salons here on the Island, but none compare to the professionalism, skill, and beautiful results I get here. I highly recommend Neelu and her salon to anyone looking for exceptional service and a fantastic experience.

I was extremely disappointed with my visit. The same technician who did my eyebrows last time did…read morethem again today, and she ended up trimming way more hair off my left eyebrow than my right, leaving them completely uneven. When I pointed it out to her, she casually told me to just use an eyebrow pencil to fill it in. I told her I don't use eyebrow pencils! I was very angry and deeply disappointed by both the result and her lack of care. Needless to say, I will not be returning. Quedé sumamente decepcionada con mi visita. La misma técnica que me hizo las cejas la vez pasada me las hizo hoy, y terminó cortando mucho más pelo de mi ceja izquierda que de la derecha, dejándolas completamente desparejas. Cuando se lo señalé, simplemente me dijo que usara un lápiz de cejas para rellenarla. ¡Le dije que yo no uso lápices de cejas! Estaba muy enojada y profundamente decepcionada, tanto por el resultado como por su falta de profesionalismo. De más está decir que no volveré.

I struggled with writing this review for a couple of months…read more 1) Yelp has this notification or message to please accommodate businesses during COVID. 2) Yelp also sends another message to look at and like/ acknowledge other reviews by other consumers for the same establishment. I did not read the 3 recent Yelp reviews from other customers who had really bad experiences with this Salon. Deepika - " poor and rude customer service", chasing down a nine month pregnant woman. Shreya " ruined, destroyed". Jaswinder " sheer waste of money" These are words from their reviews. My mother knows the owners for 40 years and meets them on a regular basis at parties, lunches, card games and get togethers. My mother is blind in her right eye. Her vision and perception are hence hindered. I drove her to the salon for her cut n color appointment with the owner Nina L. Nina had her daughter Evina handle it. The other owner/partner Vineet's father, manager and front desk counter person Mr Darshan ( goes by Deekay) N was very polite and welcoming. I was told to come back after 90 minutes which I did. He told me not to forget her winter cap as it was really cold. Very considerate. It took about two hours. I paid the $94 in cash ( Yelp 10 percent discount so $105 total minus the $11, plus a $33 cash tip plus a box of Lindt truffles that I had picked up in Switzerland). Got home and then actually looked at her head carefully. She had been butchered. ( see both photos). Her scalp was showing.The hair was cut way too short. The color was lighter than she requested and normally got. I took photos. I went back with the photos 2 days later. When I mentioned the issues, the really nice Manager Mr N ( owner Vineet's father) snapped, I mean yelled at me" What are you showing me this for ? I am not the aesthetician.". I politely asked for Nina L. She got flustered and denied everything. " Her hair was already like this". " This is what your mother wanted" etc. It took every ounce, every fiber of self control in my being not to say anything, not to react! I waited and stood there and she eventually did say, " I am sorry!". I responded " Is that it?" She then stated " Oh ok, I will fix it!", then turned and walked away. I counted to ten, smiled, waved and walked out. We did not go back, even for the free fix it.

I really needed a pedicure and I found this spa via google. A "highlight" on Google was a jello…read morepedicure. I've never heard of that or experienced that before, so I was sold! I didn't have an appointment but they took me as a walk-in. The staff were very welcoming and the spa was very clean inside. The jello pedicure is exactly how it sounds. I put my feet in jello!! It was so soft and squishy and it really made my feet feel good. A whole new spa pedicure experience. I enjoyed being asked during everything if the water temperature was okay and if everything else was okay. It's always nice to be checked on to make sure the client is comfortable. There was also a wide selection of colors! I would definitely return !

I have been to Gee Nails several times and they always do a good job with my nails. The first time…read moreI came in they gave me a discount card for senior citizens, 20% off on certain days cash only. It stated on the card that it was good for one year, Today they took that card away from me and said they will not honor it any longer and gave me a card for 15% off. The 20% card was good until December. They changed their policy. I said I will no not be back. They said that is OK. ..really? Their prices are very high $48 for a powder dip manicure, but I would pay for good quality service. Shame on you for issuing a discount card and then reneging on your own deal! Get it together Gee Nails or you'll be out of business soon. People don't like to feel like they're being taken advantage of... remember there's a Nail Salon on every corner!
