Haa! Yes--she worked wonders with my hair. It had a while since it had been cared for and after her work it looks fabulous. She also had the great idea to give me "ghost roots" which HELLO look cool as hell. Everyone sticks their nose up at Petersburg because it's not so well to do like Richmond or Henrico. PSSSHHH! (as Ed Bassmaster would say) Apothic in Petersburg is where it's at! The atmosphere is relaxing, positive, and staffed with creative stylists who listen to their customers and know how to make people look and feel fabulous.

I am not a regular pedicure customer and had never been to apothic before. The reviews were good and honestly they had the best time opening for what I was looking for. The inside is beautiful; set inside the old Hiram Hanes Edgar Allen Poe house in historic old town Petersburg it really has a rustic vibe. It's spring time and the fresh flowers everywhere were stunning and really lifted it up. There is a little boutique in the front. A little out of my price range but some nice dresses. I was greeted promptly and guided to the mid section where my nail tech took me almost 30 min before my appointment time. I was early and she was ready. Kim did an amazing job and we had a lovely conversation. She is very down to earth, accommodating, and kind. There's only one chair so you aren't sitting in a row of strangers with their feet soaking. Preferable. The chair is very comfortable and has a massage panel. She cleaned up my eyebrows as well, asking questions about how I'd like them etc. overall a very positive experience in nails. Did not get my hair done. If you appreciate the 1 on 1 with some stuff to look at, this is it.

The stylist was not only talented but also very gentle and efficient. She took her time to make sure my braids were neat, evenly parted, and exactly how I wanted them. I really appreciated how clean and organized the shop was, and the customer service was top-tier. They made sure I was comfortable the entire time, and the final result exceeded my expectations. I've received so many compliments on my hair already! If you're looking for quality braids, great prices, and excellent service, this is definitely the place to go. I'll absolutely be coming back

One of the more impressive things was that Sherry was able to book me the very day I was making my inquiry. She was quick to respond to my message to boot! After a brief consult and a glance at my Pin It picture of what I wanted, Sherry assured me that she could do the job. I am very pleased with the end result. I also had an opportunity to see another customer's makeover (went from a brunette to a highlighted blonde!) which was incredible. I have already booked my next appointment. The space is spacious; a historic old warehouse of sorts. I thoroughly enjoyed my trip to the Retreat spa this afternoon, and recommend anyone in the vicinity looking for a new stylist to come give Sherry a try. You won't be disappointed.

I called and explained my delima, saying it's been 7 months and it just never works out for the recipient. The clerk who answered said that's up to our manager, I'll get her for you. After stating the situation she quickly and to the point said they do not refund gift certificate. No "sorry for the issue", "I wish we could, but...", not even an "unfortunately". I'm totally disappointed in both the manager and the establishment!

First off the lady burned me on numerous occasions and I left with burnt popcorn smelling hair which I know means I have heat damage. Here's the kicker they charged me $62!! I asked why it was so much if all they did was flat ironed it. No washing no conditioning. The other lady (the boss is my guess) in a mix of Spanish and English said it's all the same price , even if I didn't get it washed. She took $5 off but that still wasn't enough for what was done to my hair. My scalp is still burning as I type this. And this burnt smell is terrible. The only reason I'm not totally upset is because I blame myself for not asking how much it would be ahead of time. Just a word of warning to ask the prices of everything BEFORE you get anything done here.
