My lashes always come out soo gorgeous and Genesis is such a wonderful and down to earth person that she makes the time enjoyable. I've also gotten my makeup done by Genesis and it too was beautiful. Not only does Slay N Glam sell luxurious products without huge price tags but they also have exclusive products that you won't find in Ulta or Sephora. I wish I could give them more than 5 stars for their added cleanliness and professionalism. I would 1000% recommend Slay N Glam for all your makeup needs.

We were happy for Chris Blais, who has cut my and my daughters' hair for ~15 years, when she was able to have her own chair in a great space like this.

Be aware that she does not take credit cards, so bring cash or a check. (She can probably do Venmo, but double check.) To sum up, Chris Blais is a great stylist, and our family highly recommends her.

Luckily for us, my husband's best woman had been in two weddings where she had Janis as her makeup artist. She had been so impressed with her both times, we knew that the Beautiful Faces team would treat our people right. Even our mothers, who are not used to wearing much makeup or having other people do it, commented on how beautiful and glamorous they felt. And they looked it! Janis even did some light makeup and skin evening for me and my husband, which came out great for the pictures. Both Janis and her hairstylist did an excellent job of making the whole wedding party feel at ease. They have such an easygoing, friendly, and humorous nature that calms all your nerves. I appreciated, too, that she explained every step she was taking so that nothing came as a surprise. I would absolutely recommend Beautiful Faces to anyone!

After several hours and even a soak in a hot tub, my daughter's "face" was still on and looking great. I highly recommend Ashley for any event or wedding make-up.

My mom got married the day after Thanksgiving, and we were worried about finding a hair and makeup stylist who would be available that day. Luckily, we found Marina and she gave us the most perfect, relaxing day. Everyone in the bridal party wanted a different look (glam, 1920s, classic, etc.) and the bride wanted to go very natural. Marina was so accommodating to what everyone was looking for and made us all feel beautiful. She spent the entire day with us and helped us plan out the schedule so that everything went exactly as planned and on time. The makeup and hair styles looked great all night long and, most importantly, my mom had an incredibly special day. Thank you Marina for being such an important part of it!

I've been a blonde my whole life but its started to darken as I've gotten farther into my 20's. When I read Marina's reviews she sounded almost too good to be true. I called and left her a message about what I needed and what kind of hair I had and she called back within the hour. Not only was she extremely kind over the phone but she really seemed to understand what I needed and I set up an appointment with her as soon as possible. About a week later she was in my kitchen drinking coffee and doing my hair. It was like having a cool older sister I never knew existed! We chatted and laughed the entire time she was coloring my hair. When it was time to wash my color out she brought me over to the sink. I was surprised that a stylist could really put that much time and compassion into something as simple as washing my hair. Afterwards she gave me a blowdry and styled my hair and I kid you not I felt like Marilyn Monroe by the end of it. Suffice to say I'll be booking Marina every few months from now on. 10/10 would suggest Follow my blog for more adventures! https://gronbergerandfries.wordpress.com/

I was telling my story of my experience to a friend who asked about the salon and since my experience was so unpleasant, she asked if I had ever left a review. I had not, hence, I am leaving one belatedly as she suggested. I went to this salon to get ready for my daughters wedding. I am not one who normally gets her feet and nails done on a regular basis. I usually just get pedicures a few times during the summer as a treat. Normally I just keep my nails short and my heels smooth at home. However, for my daughters wedding, I wanted a beautiful pedicure. I was so excited that there was a nail salon in a handy location since I had so much to do but I had such a negative experience, that I would never again consider going here. The woman whom I assume is the owner was welcoming and pleasant and even insistent that I give her business a try after I walked in to inquire about services. She insisted that I could park in the lot across the street (which wasn't quite correct), her business has no rights to have their customers use that lot. I was parked there because I had gone to the store, I saw her salon from my car and decided to check it out before leaving. Again, the owner was nice, and a little insistent that I use her services but it wasn't she who gave me the bad experience, it was one of her employees. When I sat for my pedicure, I felt as if she didn't want to serve me. Just her demeanor. (I am a person of color so I didn't know if that had something to do with it). My feet hadn't been in the water very long before she began. She started off okay. Then, as she was engaging and cleaning up my cuticles (which were not exceptionally bad) she began complaining about my skin. As she was doing the pedicure she kept saying that she had "so much skin" to neaten. I've never had such a complaint. She did touch/adjust every nail on my foot but it only took a moment on each nail. Imagine watching someone doing your toes and instead of conversing with me, I was listening as she complained about my cuticles with each and every toe! I wanted to leave right then and there but I really needed my feet done for the wedding which was the following day. She gave each heel a very quick brush because thats all my heels needed they were already smooth. I had a french manicure on my fingernails. I have those beautiful long nail beds and she complained about my fingers! She had to turn my hands slightly to the side. When I noticed she was missing spots I simply pointed out that she missed a spot and turned my hand more for her. She seemed annoyed that she had to pay extra attention to what she was doing and said "oh you have wide nails". While cutting my toenails, this woman was a bit rough handling my feet, and she actually drew blood!!!! She didn't jump up to get an antiseptic or anything. I almost felt it was deliberate because I was getting a bad vibe. My nails were not long or anything but needed to be shaped. She didn't come off as apologetic....although she said "sorry" I felt she was in a hurry and annoyed that I was bleeding. Her conversation with me felt forced as I shared I was going to a wedding. The final insult came during what should have been a relaxing stone foot and leg massage. She knew good and well those stones were too hot and she burned me. Again, another rushed (sorry) I didn't suffer any skin damage but I checked for it because those stones were very hot. Needless to say the massage was rushed and very unsatisfactory as well as painful. Throughout my pedicure, the owner was in the back and there were not other nail technicians in the salon as it was near closing. As soon as my pedicure was done, the nail technician cleaned up and was leaving even as my nails were still drying. She sounded as if she was yelling/talking very loudly at someone at one point while I was at the drying station, I don't know if she was on the phone or if it involved the owner as my back was turned and I couldn't understand what she was saying. If you are a person with a dark complexion, just go elsewhere. I wouldn't wish my experience on anyone. What should have been a lovely experience connected to my daughters wedding turned out to be memorable for all the wrong reasons. I will never go there again although its in a convenient location for me when I'm in the area. I'd rather drive to a salon in Roslindale or hyde park where my business is appreciated and I an respected as a human. My nails looked lovely, but given how I was treated, it didn't matter. I would never go back.

I'm back home 30 minutes after a gel pedicure at Hollywood Nails in West Roxbury, MA. It was my…read morefirst treatment there and I paid USD 36 for it. My request: "May I have a gel pedicure please? The priority is to make my feet really soft, the skin supple and hydrated so can you please get rid of all the hard skin?" Pros: the woman who received me was welcoming and polite; the salon seemed clean, comfortable and organised; there was a good assortment of gel colours to chose from. Cons: none of the three women working there offered me a drink, they were all quite engaged in conversation with one client who was there when I arrived and that didn't change during my entire visit; the pumice block with which they filed my skin had already been used; I had to ask for toe separators; my feet were under the UV curing light for a solid 12 minutes each; the nail edges were poorly finished, with spikes of hardened gel that snagged my socks. Verdict: despite the salon appearing nice and inviting, and the workers carrying a smile on their faces, the quality of the work is quite poor, making of the whole experience another disappointing one. I would NOT recommend this salon for a gel pedicure to my friends.
