The salesperson ( I think she maybe the owner or manager of the store as she has been there for…read moremany years) is aloof & unfriendly. She may be smiling but I always feel like she just wants me to leave ASAP. I bought more than $100 worth of products and yet she only reluctantly answered my extra questions about other products after my initial transaction. I could have bought more only if she answered my Qs more sincerely. I always regret using this Aritaum location. Language is not the problem as I spoke with to this particular salesperson in Korean. If possible, i always try to get to the Aritaum in Chantilly Lotte where the salespeople are much more respectful.

The skincare products are the best, they offer a lot, iope, Mamonde, Laneige, and sulwusoo. I ended up buying over $200 worth of products because the people were so helpful and helped me find the correct match for the bb and cc cream. I am in love with this store, it is my new favorite korean skincare place, I like it more than besfren, the face shop, and tonymoly. I like how they are opening more shops for the brand. It makes it convenient to buy non harmful cover up make up and skincare! I can't wait for next time!

A friend referred me to Beauty City for a place to buy authentic Korean skin care products -…read morehowever, the lady working there told me "I'd be better off shopping on line". I showed her a photo of a Korean product I had previously used - although they may nit have had that exact product, she had no interest in selling - or even taking the time to suggest something that she sold. It took me 45 minutes to get there for no help at all. I'm sure there are other Korean skincare boutiques in Annandale. If you want someone to educate you on the excellence of Korean Skin Care - then this is not the place for you..... Or me.

However, the employee was very helpful in explaining the environmentally friendly products. The demonstration of their use on my hands and my husband's face wowed us, and we ended up purchasing products. It was reassuring to see repeat customers come by to repurchase products they were out of. This left an impression that LATHER's products could be trusted. My personal favorite, the Bamboo Lemongrass Foaming Body Scrub, left my feet and hands feeling baby smooth. My wish is to go back and purchase their Bamboo Silk Foaming Face Scrub. My husband enjoyed the facial demo and got the Advanced Blemish Control Serum. I will definitely come back again to repurchase their products when I run out and pick up the face scrub!

The shop is predominantly korean products ranging from more budget friendly skincare to some higher end ones you could find at the Korean grocery stores.

The staff is friendly as well and happy to answer any questions asked.

Beauty of Joseon diehards would love to know that they can get their sunscreen products here…read morewithout waiting long for the mail. It is about $7-10 more expensive than what you find online, but it's useful if you're in a bind! (And if those kbeauty sites take forever to ship). Note: You have to ask for Beauty of Joseon at the front counter like cigarettes, as it's not on display like the other brands! The also have a lot of other popular K-Beauty brands on hand - Rom&nd (lippies!), Round Lab, Skin1004, CosRx, Benton, 3CE, Mixsoon. Nice selection, but also pricier. Last time I came here, they had Line bear-themed masks and Gudetama lotions. So kawaii!! They also have a loyalty program but they don't always adhere to it. Just remind them to write down your phone number if the system isn't working. Feel mixed about this place, but still glad it's here.

I love this place!! They have popular Korean skincare and they also have good deals too. Some of…read morethe brands they have are Sulwhasoo, IOPE, Innisfree, Laneige etc, they don't have a lot of selection but they have the trust worthy brand. The thing I love the most here is that the lady give a lot of free samples for you to try, which is awesome. I heard the lady said that they have different deals every month, I recently went and I got the one get one free deal on makeup brushes/ sponges, she said last month they had shampoo that was buy one get one. They also have good reward system too, especially if you buy a lot of skincare. Due to covid, the store didn't have a lot of BB cushion that I wanted but hopefully they will restock more products. The customer service here is very friendly, which is rare for Korean store. Don't feel intimated because most of the time you'll be the only one in the store, you can ask them for good recommendations and they will be honest. Definitely coming back for some skincare and bb cushion.

Dr. Chang is extraordinarily meticulous, talented, and detail-oriented, with an excellent bedside manner. He is warm, thoughtful, reassuring, and clearly takes tremendous pride in his work. He corrected asymmetry and several other issues from my prior breast augmentation by a different surgeon that had left me very unhappy, and the transformation is remarkable. My tummy tuck scar is unbelievably thin, my belly button looks completely natural and beautifully placed, and everything looks balanced, refined, and exactly as I had hoped. The level of care extends to the entire practice. The office is beautiful, and the staff is consistently kind, caring, professional, and attentive. From start to finish, I felt incredibly well cared for. I previously had surgery with another prominent DMV-area plastic surgeon, and my experience with Dr. Chang was far superior. The difference in the level of attention to detail, care, and results was striking. I truly could not be happier. Dr. Chang is outstanding and I recommend him without reservation.

The way you cut the front to frame my face is especially beautiful, it has so much volume and falls perfectly without looking over styled. It's polished, flattering, and still feels effortless.

I've been testing out new salons since moving here with the hope of finding one I really like that…read morealso doesn't break the bank, and had high hopes for this one based on the reviews. I only ever do simple cuts, nothing fancy. My haircut, done by Anderson (a level 3 stylist), is objectively good. The skill was there. But it's definitely shorter than I wanted it. Went in for a lob, came out with an asymmetrical bob...Honestly I was panicking while he was drying it because it was starting to look like Lord Farquaad from Shrek. I asked if he could style it like in the reference pictures I showed (simple waves, to reduce Farquaad-ness). He tried to do it with the brush/dryer, which obviously wasn't working, and didn't want to use a flatiron. So I just suffered through scalding heat on my scalp and hair pulling. I got told I don't have curly hair. I got told I don't have frizzy hair. I, in fact, have both of those. Some other minor things: 1. When I got home I had some hair that was noticeably longer than the rest, like it never got cut. So...I had to do it. Just a few strands, but normally stylists check for that when your hair is dry. 2. I almost never use heat on my hair, so I asked for recs and mentioned a specific brand doesn't work for me. He immediately said he loves that brand. I said yeah...but it doesn't work for me. Anything else? "Any salon brand." Cool. Not helpful. 3. Asked for something at the end to tame the pieces that were sticking out (again, I have frizzy hair). He looked...confused? Smoothing as a last step has been standard at every other place I've been to. There is nothing in the whole salon like that? Also, my introvert-self just wants to go somewhere where I don't have to be engaged in conversation the whole time. Anyway. Won't go back, my hunt continues.
