They didn't offer threading yet (my preferred service) so I went in for a wax, the girl took her time to explain things, review everything and have me approve of the shape and she filled them in with powder after which was nice. They said they'll be offering threading in a few weeks and I will definitely be back to try that out. I already have my return wax and tint booked.

I am extremely satisfied with the results of my micro-blading/micro-shading performed by Angelia…read moreTran and the entire process from start to finish. My Back Story My natural brows are very sparse and uneven - having to apply brow powder everyday was not only time consuming, but also frustrating as they were never symmetrical or near symmetrical. Thus, having my eyebrows micro-bladed was an easy decision to allow me to have a more convenient lifestyle. Website The Brows & Coffee website is simple and elegant - the topic links at the top of the page made it easy to navigate with easy-to-read font. Information provided on the page (especially the FAQs) made me feel more at ease prior going into the appointment. I thoroughly enjoyed the "Recovery Time" section of the FAQs as it gave a timeline of the healing process. Moreover, the website also allowed me to contact her directly via email for further questions I had before committing to the procedure. Instructions An appointment confirmation email was sent to me with pre & post care instructions and included vital information on WHAT NOT TO DO to ensure the procedure goes smoothly.  Post procedure instructions was provided PRIOR to the appointment and it made a difference as this allowed me to absorb the information early on. Coming from health care, I always start client discharge teaching from the time a client is admitted. I was able to experience this as a client and it truly made a difference in information retention. The Artist Angelia Tran has a professional and calm demeanor - she was able to address any questions and concerns I had. She definitely ensured I was 100% satisfied with the brow consultation prior to commence with the procedure and I am truly glad she did as this is a face I'll be wearing everyday! I believe it is imperative to choose a Brow Artist who not only has talent, but also who takes the time to listen and address your needs and this was exemplified in Angelia. Her 8+ years experience with brows was definitely demonstrated with not only with my brows but also with her other clients (take a look at her gallery!). THANK YOU FOR MAKING ME BEAUTIFUL-ER! Cindy Cheng

My first two appointments were amazing, but then my stylist, Stacey, left the salon so I saw…read moreanother junior stylist Amanda. I had blonde (admittedly quite brassy) highlights from another salon and wanted to dye my hair silver. I showed the stylist photos on my phone of the colour that I wanted and had booked an appointment for a full colour. After suggesting an ombre (which I obviously did not want) Amanda suggested highlights (which I didn't want but she insisted that my hair would look better that way). The whole experience was a disaster. I paid for olaplex and it wasn't left in long enough, Amanda had another appointment that she didn't know about so the receptionist kept coming up to her and complaining about how the man had been waiting for 15mins. There was filming going on in the salon that day so it was chaotic and the owner, Darlene, kept coming up to tell me how pretty my hair was (which I couldn't see without my glasses on) or to yell at Amanda for making the other customer wait or for mixing up too much hair dye and then Darlene would freak out about how Amanda shouldn't have been talking about those things in front of customers. Amanda had to constantly ask others for their opinion or how something should be done. I asked her what colours of toner she used (after she asked like 3 stylists and had just mixed it) and she told that it was "too scientific and I wouldn't understand". Amanda wouldn't let me leave the chair until I said "I love it" instead of just "I like it and need to see it in natural light". I had shampoo left in my hair so I couldn't even enjoy the blowout afterwards as it irritated the back of my neck. Amanda was lovely and so sweet, but very young and inexperienced. I ended up posting on instagram about how disappointed I was with my cut and colour and (once I tagged dk envy) I ended up getting a call back (on Christmas Eve, so not the right time to be calling). And after talking for 30mins about my hair complaints we had booked another appointment to have my hair recoloured. My stylist was an hour late for the appointment, other customers were being updated on their wait time if their stylist was running behind, I was once asked what time my appointment was-after about 45mins of waiting, but that was it.When I finally met with the stylist she had a lot of attitude and obviously did not want to be dealing with me. She took me over to the opposite side of the salon from everyone else to make me tell her what I didn't like about my hair...again. She even told me that my hair wasn't brassy and that my hair didn't stay gray because it fades quickly and I hadn't been using a purple shampoo (which I had been, I even had a Gray specific conditioner). Talking about my hair was awkward as Amanda was in the salon and kept coming over to check on me and to apologize, and knelt down and put her hands on my lap. I understand the sentiment there but I'm a quiet and closed off person (which is super obvious from meeting me) so the entire encounter felt rather awkward. Olaplex was not used (or even offered) and after she now dried my hair she asked if I wanted it straightened or curled and when I said curled she commented that she wouldn't have to help clean up the salon since it would take so long (after she was an hour late). She also said that Amanda had just been overwhelmed since o have so much hair (as if that was my fault). And lastly, she asked me to remove my posts from instagram (which I obviously didn't do).

That being said, I…read morehaven't had a set of extensions in a long time so I chose somewhere new to go and I am a little disappointed... Only a week after getting my lashes done, I had to get them removed. My eyelids were so irritated and I was constantly rubbing them after getting them installed. Caedin suggested an antihistamine, but that didn't seem to work for me. My lash line was swollen and red and since I was rubbing them so much, the lashes were falling out like crazy. They also seemed to be glued together, so I'm not sure if that contributed to it. When I got them removed (elsewhere, as I was out of town) the lady mentioned that they were too close to my skin and that's why it was so irritating.

Got an appointment quite quickly. Nicole was doing my lashes, I used a groupon and I'm really quite…read moreregretting it now. It was my first time getting extensions, which I told her. There was not really any consult, she showed me 2 kinds of lashes, guess they were the longest she had, only really asked me if I wanted C or J curl and if I wanted a cat eye look or lashes all around. I guess I shouldn't have trusted her to know what she was doing, as she's the "professional". She could have told me that if they're too long my lashes might now be able to handle their weight. Guess I was supposed to figure that out on my own. She was talking like she knew her stuff and explained, that the lashes go on one by one, each lash getting its own extension. She even explained to me -while she was doing my lashes- that if you put more than one on a lash they can get damaged or if you glue 1 extension on more than one natural lash. My eye lashes looked quite awful. Nicole said they'd "relax" in a few days, I took her word for it. When my friends commented on how my lashes looked really weird... I told them it's no big deal, they'll relax in the next few days. It was my first time, I didn't know better... The eye lashes on the left eye were pointing to the left. The right side looked good. Then my lashes started falling over and pulling like crazy, just 1 week after I got these done. I followed all instruction, made sure to use their brush and never rubbed my eyes, no matter how much it bugged me. Then some fell out... And I saw that instead of one by one, some extensions had as many as 5 of my natural lashes mixed in the glue. I freaked out a little. I called and spoke to Caedin, who made me feel like crap, telling me that the photo they took looked fine, basically saying this issue is my fault and implied that it's my fault and "why would I have waited this long to call"... Umm, probably because I was told that I needed to give them a few days to relax? Then she told me that my lashes were "falling over" because my natural lashes weren't long enough for the length. Well of course. Again, I had to figure that out on my own? Why wasn't I advised of this? I had faith that they'd figure themselves out like Nicole said. Instead I got lashes that were intermingled and looked like they were trying to braid themselves. When I told Caedin that my lashes had multiple natural lashes to one extension she told me that I needed to come in to get them taken off. But she needed to charge me $30 -to remove Nicole's botched job... When I contested she sighed and went on how she had to stay longer to accommodate me for the same day, made me feel even more like an inconvenience. Guess it's too much to ask for a business to fix their mistakes? I was so uncomfortable with this situation and with going back to this place, that I cancelled a few hours ahead of the appointment and went to see someone else to remove the synthetic extensions... I had originally paid for mink. That's another reason to complain but given all of the above, this was the least of my problems. Perhaps knowing that it was my first time she figured I wouldn't notice that she put the less expensive ones on me. All in all, not a good experience. That'll teach me to not ever again use groupon for this service. Because even though you pay the higher rate for mink, you get synthetic, with crummy service to top. I will make sure to tell my friends and acquaintances where not to go.
