    Regarding the previous post from a reviewer by the name of "amera". Why did you agree to the $75…read moreprice if you already called and asked on the phone and scheduled for the hair appointment?? $75 is verrry cheap to treat for your DAMAGED hair. Whoever you went to prior to Paulette's is the place you need to complain to! You probably complained to there too!! If you are just one of those people that go to Yelp and constantly complain on everywhere you've been at, you might as well just stay your butt at home and treat your own d*mn hair!! I've been going to Paulette for over 5 years and have always had the best hair experience. I get compliments from strangers at malls, work and at party events. Very professional and lovely environment. I would never switch to another salon. My mom introduced me to Paulette years ago. Paulette trained my mom (a cosmetologist as well) on new trendy styles etc. after my first visit, I was hooked onto Paulette's magnificent highlights, haircut she did to my hair. I am really impressed by Paulette's mastery how she blends colors to make my hair look so pretty. I have definitely gotten plenty of compliments over the years regarding my highlights and layers. Paulette is truly really great at what she does. She also has a big heart!

    I learned basic Esthetic and continued to Master Esthetic…read more Two weeks ago I passed my test and now I am a proud Master esthetician Thanks to Miss Paulette and Mr Sammy I never thought or imagined that I will succeed so quickly and learn so profoundly. But I know that all my success is thanks to miss Paulette and her devotion , her impeccable knowledge and talents I must say that miss Paulette and mr Sammy are the nicest adorable people that I know I respect them and love them dearly Thank you very dear miss Paulette and mr Sammy Sarina

    Found this place through Groupon's $35 Corrective Facial deal. Their regular price is $45 and they…read morehave a stamp card where after 5 facials you get one free (which they didn't give me the first time I went, mind you). Price wise, it's unbeatable in this area. As far as what the price gets you...well a student edition that's slower and therefore abridged. There's a lot they simply don't have time for as the student tries to rush through everything in about 45minutes. The first time takes longer as there's a review of your intake forms, and a discussion on what products to use during this facial. After cleansing, an instructor comes in to check your skin and advise the student on what to do and what products to use. I found this process useful for determining what products I should and should not use. I came back and scheduled with the same student just to get an idea of how much my skin might've improved after following the instructors advice. Very useful. They student double cleanses while streaming your skin. There's always makeup removal even though I've tried telling them I have permanent makeup and no additional makeup on. I really wished they would add this to their chart so we can just skip all this "makeup removal" when no makeup is worn. Anyway, after double cleansing there's an inspection, in my case exfoliation, a mask, and then some treatment as necessary. I assume not everyone has the same treatment as we have different issues to address. Overall the rooms and tables are comfortable. They play pleasant music. It's meant to be a relaxing spa experience. However, as they don't have any lymphatic massage included, or bring any of the facial down to your neck/chest, it really feels a little j complete. There's also not been any extraction even though estheticians usually would extract.

    I'm so happy I discovered esthetic Institute through groupon. Now I've been here over 8 times and…read moreI've been working with one particular student for a few months now. Her level of knowledge with problem/acne skin has impressed me. As someone who has tried almost everything in the industry and visited countless dermatologists for years to treat my face, I've never been treated with such great attention to my skin and such a personalized action plan. She has been working to lighten my hyperpigmentation and I already see great improvement. I've done regular facials, chemical peels, and microdermabrasion. Now that my hyperpigmentation has been improving, I hopped over to their location next door (the Esthetic Laser Clinic, not to be confused with Esthetic Institute-where the students are) and got microneedling (Skinpen) done. I am excited to see the results. The Esthetic Laser clinic is the real deal and it is not done by students. Pricing for the Esthetic Institute is wonderful, especially for this area where everything seems to be on the higher end. I'm sad to be moving from the area soon but I know that anytime I'm back in town, a trip to the esthetic Institute will be on my list!

    I found Le Arai because I was searching for DC-area beauty schools that offer haircut services…read more(often the best bet for a low-cost haircut that still looks good). Upon arriving I learned that this is NOT the school - the school is now at Le Arai 's Annandale location. That's a bit far even for me to travel to save money on a haircut, and fortunately, the price here was still a bargain -$35 for wash, cut and blow-dry. Tina was my stylist, and she was fantastic - a thorough and relaxing hairwashing, and the cut by itself took maybe 30 minutes. I showed her some photos of the style I wanted and she recreated it quite nicely for me. She was also very warm and friendly while also being focused on her work during the cut - all essential qualities for me in a great hair stylist. The salon is a bit of a walk from the metro station (though there's a nice, large parking lot if you're driving), so I might hesitate to return in the winter months if it's very cold or snowy. That said, beauty school haircuts can be hit or miss, and after today's experience I'm thinking Le Arai will be all hits, so I'm definitely planning to return.

    I was in the area looking for a regular hair cut, I came here before and they do good BUT this time…read morethis crazy lady do my hair TERRIBLE EXPERIENCE her name is polin blond old lady convince me to get a haircut with her, Terrible fade when I just ask for. Really hair cut I'm a lawyer and my hair cut was looking like I was in drugs or something, PLEASE PEOPLE don't even think about it get a haircut here unless you ask for miss Le, she's the one who you can always see.
