My review is based on my experience with Kirstie at Naked Waxing Spa…read more I did a quick Yelp search for "best wax" and Naked Waxing Spa was the first to pop up. Given the 5 stars I was immediately interested. Finding the salon was a little difficult as it is located behind the Cvs & Chipotle in Gaithersburg Square. My GPS kept telling me I had arrived when in fact I hadn't lol parking was also a pain as I had to loop around 3 times before someone finally left. I've been to the Symmetry Salon in Bethesda once before so I knew stylists had their own private space. I honestly prefer it over a loud, hectic salon. Your stylist can truly give you their undivided attention. This location also sells Balmain products. Super chic. You can help yourself to coffee, water and snacks while you wait. There is an ATM located inside as well just in case you forget cash to tip! All payments are made through your stylist not the front desk. I believe the receptionist is there to mostly direct clients and to book appointments. Kirstie was fantastic! I truly mean that. If you are looking for waxing, look no further and book an appointment today! She's friendly and professional. I will definitely be returning!

Review for BROW WOW THREADING ONLY. Absolute WORST threading /waxing I've ever recieved. It was so…read moregod damn painful. The woman who saw me (younger of the two) asked what I wanted, I responded and she started to work on my brows. From the second she put the thread on my skin it was painful and I felt like my eyebrows were being ripped off and bleeding. Later I saw that I did have a scar and bruise above my eyes. It felt like she was bitter and purposely putting all her anger into ripping my eyebrow hair out. That's how bad the pain was. Disclaimer here, I am from a similar area of the world where I also get my eyebrows threaded and NO, I am not some sissy person who is new to threading. My mother was a professional threader and I've had my eyebrows touched by BOTH novices and experts and I NEVER had any pain like this. I am very thick skinned and my pain tolerance is high but this threading stop in the salon run by these two Indian women....go somewhere else. I don't want to shit on the other salons in here and I will probably go here to try another salon but the threading...NO. Just full stop. She was rude too. I don't usually give a damn about that if you service me well. But the pain was too much to come back. And the result was mediocre. Not worth it for me to drive an hour for it.

I love Heather so much! I've been looking around for a good hairstylist in the DMV area and I'm so…read moreglad my friend recommended her! What I like about Heather is that she really cared about your hair and your routine. She'll take time to ask you what you want and will listen to your thoughts and concerns. I also have problems with my scalp and Heather took the time to describe the hair routine I should be doing to fix that issue. As someone who knows nothing about hair care, it's so nice to have someone tell you what to do lol. Highly recommend Heather if you're ever in the area!

I was approached by owner Danielle at my place of employment…read more She offered to pull some of the orange /brassy color out of the color I currently had and WANTED. I also needed my roots touched up so I agreed to call and set up and appt. I had to reschedule my first appointment because my day off got switched at work... She was able to fit me in on a Saturday after I got off work, which would put her past the time she normally worked and I was very greatful! When I got there, I showed her the picture of what I wanted. The same picture I used to get the the color I was currently at, which was not far off. It just had a little more brassy tone than I wanted. After showing her the picture she asked if wanted to cut any of it. I said yes a little. We agreed to right at my breast (my hair was almost at my butt) She cut it across real quick and I was happy with the length. She gave her assistant mixing instructions and then started coloring my hair. As she was coloring it, she said what I'm doing is just starting over. I said ok... as I believed she was just re-foiling the hair (in the same colors , the color in the picture). As she put all these foils in I could estimate this was going to be a full foil price. Not what I agreed to but if she was going to make it look great, I was ok with it. Long story short... She ended up going a whole different route with the color. It pulled super ashy to the point it looks grey/silver/green in most lighting. I don't know why in the salon lighting you couldn't see it but as soon as I walked out side, I could see it and it got worse as the day went on. On top of that when she went in to finish up the cut, you know just clean it up, since she already cut the length to where I wanted it.. She ended up cutting several more inches off and adding tons of layers. Basically a sag cut. Which would have been great if that was what I wanted! She chopped my hair off and didn't even ask! My hair went from all the way down my back, to touching my shoulders. Ladies we all know, when you have your hair long and you don't have any intentions of going short how you feel when someone takes it upon themselves to cut all your hair off! You think that's the end of this story? Then wait for the bill! $485.00 BEFORE TIP! WHY???? YOU ASK? WELL apparently I needed two things of gloss at $55 each on top of the $290 for cut and foil... I also needed another color I didn't know I needed for $95 and then I needed extra product for $20. I went from just remove the brassy and do my roots... To ending up going home with all my hair cut off, an ash gone wild hair color I didn't know I wanted. AND ALL THAT GLOSS I PAID FOR!?!! IDK HIDING BEHIND THE ASH? Is going to get fixed you ask??? Sorry she isn't available any of the days I'm off for the next several weeks and she closes at 5 pm every day so that's not happening. If I came in to her salon and said , I have no clue what I want, I want you to just do whatever YOU want oh and money is no object!..Well then I got what I asked for. But this was not the case.
