She then said 2pm. Why wouldn't she suggest that in the first email if it's just 30 minutes earlier Anyway, I agree to it, and she said great, 7/29 at 2pm. I then get an email confirming an appointment for Saturday- so I replied to confirm I booked it for Friday. Her response? Scroll up and you'll see we agreed on 7/29. I didn't double check if the 29th was a Saturday so I suppose that's my fault? I then asked her to have a manager call me and she said she is the manager and they're busy in the summer and there is nothing they can do. And that was it. I've been coming to Nantucket for 33 years and this sort of rude customer service is very rare out here. I went to RJ Miller and had a great experience- I recommend you go there.

This review is for babysitting services through Hand In Home- I have not experienced any of their…read moreother in-home services. I contacted Ms. Hunter to see if she could meet a last minute babysitting need for my two young daughters while we were on vacation in Nantucket. She found a sitter that she said she recommended highly- a woman who is a mother of two and a high school teacher. She did not allow me to speak with the sitter prior to hiring her to make sure it was a good fit, but this may be standard for babysitting services. Once assured of her experience level and that she had a criminal background check, we decided to proceed. Unfortunately, Karen fell far short of our expectations of a babysitter. She was not friendly or engaging at all with the kids (10 months and almost 4 years) and before leaving I had to encourage her multiple times to try to play with our older daughter to build a rapport and engage her. While this is a far lesser concern, she did not tidy up at all before leaving. We certainly don't expect any house cleaning from a babysitter but straightening up is part of the job- there were toys all over the living room and she didn't clean up spilled food in the dining area and kitchen. This was a two day sitting job and I gave her the benefit of the doubt that perhaps she was just having a bad day the first day. I gave her some ideas of what to do with the kids and asked her specifically to take our daughters for a walk in the stroller to get them outside in the sunshine. We came home after four hours to learn that our toddler hadn't eaten lunch (which I had prepared and left out) and had just stayed inside and was allowed to play on her tablet all morning. She said specifically, without prompting, "she didn't play with me", in reference to the sitter. We have babysitters regularly at home as well as when we travel and have had a range of experiences from mostly positive to absolutely wonderful. Needless to say, this was a disappointing experience. My overall impression was that she was not happy to be here and that she did not, in fact, seem to enjoy children very much. I shared my concerns with Ms. Hunter by email as I expected that she would want to use the feedback to ensure that she's hiring the right sitters to work with her service. Surprisingly, I have not received a response, which is a red flag from a customer service perspective. I would not recommend this service for childcare needs.

She was hurting my nails when clipping them and did not care about being gentle. I had eaten a big orange before my appointment and got a little of the peel under my nail and all she could do was judge me and ask me if I smoked - and I don't. The experience was disgusting and I felt robbed of my 35$ because she was so extremely rude and grumpy. My nails didn't look good either, and lasted two days at most. She didn't care that she smudged one of them and didn't fix it. Do not go here.

Go visit Daiva…read moreSalon, as she is awesomely professional, skilled, and really understands what men want in a haircut. The atmosphere is comfortable and the service is top-notch. Highly recommended for any man looking for top notch quality grooming on the island. I was pleased with the last two cuts from her, as I have gotten more compliments than I think I ever had. I enjoyed the one-on-one parlor experiences. Daiva is overly accommodating and truly values her client's time which I think is the most important thing anyone can ever do. As Daiva is beyond professional and puts a ton of care into ensuring that your cut will stand the test of time above all else, which translates to great value for me. I'd definitely recommend paying her a visit at Daiva Salon on 56 Pleasant Street, Nantucket, MA 02554. Happy Islander, Chase

The owner Lizzy and each of her employees I have come across (from 1998 until 2011) are exceptionally friendly, welcoming, and knowledgeable-- setting Beauty by The Sea apart from many of the beauty shops in downtown Nantucket and making it a total charm and pleasure to shop here. They are attentive and helpful. There is a great selection of staples and unique collections, and the shop is always spotless and so well organized. Nothing here is astronomically marked up, and the jewelry offerings are equally killer, with well chosen items from Me & Ro and a variety of handmade items designed and created by Lizzy's mother.
