I absolutely LOVE Beauty Lab! The staff, the location, the ambience, the prices, I love everything about it. I am definitely ditching The major wax chain I used prior and supporting this wonderful waxing business from here on out! I scheduled my appointment online and snagged a last minute appointment for a Saturday morning with Madi. I arrived about 15 minutes early for my appointment and she was able to take me right away. I paid for my services prior, which I appreciate. Nothing like a bottle neck at the front desk, with all your patrons trying to pay at the same time. The decor in the Beauty Lab is beautiful. If it very minimalistic, homey and comfortable. Most importantly, it is very clean! In fact, the kind gentlemen at the front desk was cleaning when I arrived. Cleanliness is definitely very important for a waxing business, so I appreciated that! The wax room was very spacious and clean. Madi was an absolute sweetheart. She was very professional and the wax experience was amazing! She had me in and out in no time, which I definitely appreciated on this specific Saturday, because it was snowing and I wanted to get off the roads ASAP. Amazing business, amazing staff, amazing experience! You should really patronize this business. I assure you, you will not be disappointed! read more

Don't get the plus member plan as they will find new ways to charge you fees constantly. Don't come in one month and it's $15, no surprise there but your invoice will be aggressive in stating that it is overdue the second it's sent to you. And that $15 you pay for the membership, better do it in January only because it's not for a year from when you started, it's due every January. So my membership that started in September still has to be renewed in January for another $15. I am not renewing just to find out all the other ways they plan on screwing me over. The worst is the managers/owners are completely absentee and make the waxers do double duty at the front desk and take on the brunt of frustrated customers. Must be nice to sit in your palace funded by bad business practices and the labor of others. Speaking of the waxers, Christina is absolutely amazing and the best waxer I've ever had. She is efficient, minimizes pain, and produces clean and lasting results. She should be paid what the quality of her work deserves and she should be treated better. read more

This is my second time coming to this establishment and I have to honestly say that I love it here! Ariel is an awesome aesthetician. She does a wonderful job and take her time. Which means a lot and very educational! The establishment itself is wonderful and so calm and friendly. I heard a lot of good reviews about the other waxers and they do a good which I mean speaks for itself. They offer a lot of different waxing, along side treatments you can do. They also have products that you can buy and use after your sessions for different treatments of at home skin care. What I like the most about Beauty Lab is you can pay as soon as you check in. And once you check in your seated for no longer than 5mins, after you wax session you have the option to tip your waxer through an QR code and it brings up their payment options (which I think is really good for the service they give) I can say that they have a set policy then other places and I understand it and some can't. I would definitely try this place if you're interested in getting a wax or other treatments here. Check them out! read more

Came in for an underarm wax, Christina did a great job! Quality waxing service was provided, Im very pleased with the results. read more

Beauty Lab - Underarm Wax - Waxing Near Me - Columbia, Maryland

I found beauty Lab on groupon. I was so nervous initially getting waxed. But this was by far the most amazing experience I have ever had. I have recently visited the new location off of shaker drive. I walked in and made a same day appointment and came back back maybe an hour later. By far the best treatment wax I have every had. She made me feel so comfortable, and extremely relaxed. I will never ever go anywhere else. This time I was brave and got underarms, Brazilian wax and lower legs. She always offers a membership for monthly clients . Seriously she is the best in town!! I look forward to my next appointment next month. read more

After watching youtube videos and hearing about the pain of the process from friends, I waited on my first brazillian wax for YEARS. Welp, folks, all that build up for nothing. Lanisha did a great job making me feel comfortable and was very professional/not awkward throughout the process. She was a great conversationalist, which really helped me feel comfortable. Would highly suggest! Be sure to follow the instructions you receive to the Columbia office as it is not clearly apparent on how to get in to the building. You must enter through a door at the other end of a building from the market, then go to the second floor. Parking is sufficient for the area - no problems find a spot! read more

Lanisha (the owner) was sweet enough to reach out to me via email after reading about my poor experience. That alone was shocking as I did not expect to have such a different experience with Beauty Lab! The wax itself is virtually painless and the price is reasonable. The only thing they are truly missing is their own phone operating system for better communication with customers so mishaps like my last one can be better avoided. read more

My friend comes here and recommended this place to me! I was excited to book but was unable to online. There was an error with two of my cards and my friends card (who booked right before me) so I showed up anyways in hopes the receptionist was going to be more helpful than she was. I told her there was an issue with the card and she said she's never seen that problem before. She was unable to help me make an appointment because everything was done online and I had to accept to the terms and conditions / consents online and "everything is done online." I don't see how they don't have a printed copy or even print a copy at the moment. As I was sitting waiting for my friend to come out of her appt, the receptionist answered a call and helped someone book an appt. I thought everything was done online? Cool, love that my friend loves this place and I'm sure the other ladies are great! The receptionist wasn't that helpful. read more

So Happy!!! This was my first time at Beautylab. Clean( no double dipping) easily accessible.. I got a Brazilian. Kay was my waxer and she did a great job!! Was the least painful. Kay made me feel comfortable and we carried a conversation the whole time which made the experience faster. Before I knew it we were done. I would definitely recommend Beautylab for any of your waxing needs. . Thanks you guys! read more

Lanisha did a great job! She was very thorough and made sure I was pleased with the results. She talked to me the whole time, making sure I was comfortable during the process. read more

Now I won't say the whole business is bad they just have one bad apple. The manager or whoever he is was very prejudice. From the minute I walked in I was judged. Through our interaction you can tell he wants the business to only target a specific type of demographic. He tried to belittle me because of my race. As someone with three masters degrees and more education than he could ever dream of I was not going to stand for such. I recommend going to Anna's Beauty studio instead. She's such a nice lady she makes you feel welcome in her environment not like you don't belong. read more

Such a great waxing studio I've been to 3 different girls and all of them are very efficient! 10/10 recommend!

So, I was kind of leery about checking this place out after some of the reviews that I read. AnyWho, I decided to go ahead and purchase the Groupon special considering it was a great deal. It was awkward for me to do the online booking, so I tried to call but I was able to get an actual person. The number listed will get you in contact with an operator who is nothing more than a booking agent. So today during my break, I decided to drive directly there to see if they would make an exception for me. The agent finally called me back and instructed that they don't do it but maybe I would have a pinch of luck. Indeed I did! When I knocked on the door, I met Kasia. She was on her break, but Glattly squeeze me into her schedule. I must say, this was one of the BEST waxing experience that I have ever had in my 15 years of patronage! The wax that she used was purple, and consisted of real lavender extract. Once apply, the wax turned into a spongy strip and which all she had to do was spill it back and my hairs were removed. During the process, can you show was very educated in the process of hair removal. She gave me great advice for the future, so that my experiences would be painless as possible. After she waxed my lower Extremities, she a plied a natural missed that consisted of aloe vera. It was very refreshing. I enjoyed the experience so much, I then went on to get my eyebrows, under arms, our cats and legs waxed! I highly recommend this place! But appointments are indeed encouraged read more

Arielle was my waxer- she did an awesome job! Professional, great personality and greeted me with a smile. The pain Level was very low. The only downside is they ask for payment before services which is a bit odd to me for beauty services But other than that.- great parking and location and will go back again. read more

The one and only, my amazing esthetician, Tara Doll is here!! Ladies, if you used to go to a nearby national chain (which I shall not name) on the outskirts of the mall, and you're wondering where your favorite esthetician ran off to... ta-da!! I've been going to Tara for probably somewhere around 2 years! She is my numero uno! I come from Reisterstown to Columbia specifically for Tara. Her waxing is impeccable! As little pain as possible (waxing is obviously never going to be a pain-free experience!), no residual wax... the second most important thing: no stray hairs (yaasss! Lol) and THE most important thing... no double dipping the sticks!!! Tara also has a really nice cover (reminds me of the heavy bib thing they lay over you at the dentist for xrays) where you lay down, which she cleaned after I was done. So much better than laying on those narrow rolls of disposable paper that stick to you when you get up, and better for the environment! Her space is well decorated and I love that it's a private suite, not a cold, bare, doctors office-style room. I got a Groupon for my first visit, which might still be out there if you're new to Beauty Lab! Oh and it's inside the JC salon suites on the second floor! The entrance is between the natural market and the new nail salon (Bliss?) read more

Had my first wax experience today with Tara! She made me extremely comfortable, was knowledgeable, and kept me calm although I was extremely nervous! The pain was not nearly as bad as I thought I would be and will definitely be back!! And no double dipping read more

Ke'shia is the BOMB . BEST HARD WAX ever . I have thicker curly hair and more prone to hair bumps ! No sir not with her! She cleaned the slate like a BOSS. Superior professionalism and meticulous. She was fast , gentle yet effective . I mean gentle as in she holds the area right after the pull and it actually HELPS !! I had a recent section and now a keloid and it's sensitive okay . Okay so again she got every grAin of hair yet was delicate . She's amazing okurrrr read more

It was my first time going to this establishment on a suggestion from a co-worker. I wanted to get a Brazilian wax (which I was pretty nervous about) and CHRISTINA was highly recommended. I booked an appointment with her and I was not disappointed! I was sent plenty of notifications to include a confirmation email and reminders of my upcoming service. When I got there the front desk clerk was super friendly (I didn't catch his name) and Christina even came out before my appointment to see if I was already there. I had some paperwork to fill out, but she was patient and ended up taking me back sooner than my appointment was scheduled for. She is very professional and reassuring. I honestly was expecting more pain, but it was way less than I thought. Her technique was great and she made me feel very comfortable. Getting a Brazilian you might feel a little awkward, but I wasn't uncomfortable at all as we chatted about a bunch of things which made time go by quickly. She is just really super friendly. As a first time customer, they also gave me a discount on my service which included the Brazilian wax + the skin soothing v treatment- you need this in your life! It was amazing especially after a Brazilian. The place was extremely clean too. Very updated modern layout which just made the experience even better. It was inviting and relaxing. I will definitely be seeing Christina again in the future for more services. If you schedule with her you will not be disappointed! read more

Found this place on Groupon and have been going back ever since ! Laniesha is the best and the wax she uses it soo smooth you have to question if any hair was removed! Not painful at all and I don't have to wait to heal for a day or two ! I've been getting waxed for about 10 years now and I have had my fair share of great and not so great experiences and they are the best when it comes to Brazilian waxing ! read more

I had a very pleasant experience at the Columbia location. My appointment was with Ke'Shia. She was simply AWESOME. I booked the Brazilian and underarm waxing service. She made me feel very relaxed and at ease during the entire session. She's patient and works with you to ensure you're comfortable, I'll definitely recommend booking her for your waxing services! Side note: I was somehow scheduled the same time as another client but she worked with me to get me in and out quickly so that I wouldn't have to reschedule. Great, clean, and welcoming space. Go see Ke'Shia! read more

I went to Beauty Lab the first time last year and Tara was amazing! She made me feel so comfortable as a first timer. However, I decided to go today and I saw a different person and my experience was not great. I just got home and I felt like something wasn't right. I went to look and found a glob of wax stuck on hair that wasn't removed, which made my underwear stick to me. I got a Brazilian. So here I am, ripping wax off of a place that is really sensitive and tough to reach, if you know what I mean. There's wax stuck on my skin everywhere. I also have a massive bruise the length of my thumb. Pretty disappointed considering how good my first experience was. read more

I've been meaning to write this post every time I look down at my cooka. Sorry for the wait. If you need a Brazilian wax, MEGHAN is the way to go! She was amazing! It was my third time getting a Brazilian and my experience was 100x better then the first two. She's super nice and really cares about her client and tries to make the experience as painless as possible. I mean a wax is a wax, so it's going to hurt. However, I am happy to say I have found my permanent esthetician and I will be returning soon. Thanks Meghan! read more

Tara is the best PERIOD. Between the wax she uses and the small talk she makes. It's the best!! I've found a new Suzy snatcher and I'm never going elsewhere. She's fast, funny and makes this uncomfy experience tolerable. I often can go during my lunch break she is so fast! When making a first appt, please read the instructions and directions and your appt will be a breeze. I'm now apart of the Doll Dames (I just named us). read more

Stay away from this place. They are rude and condescending. I was stuck in traffic, desperate to get to the location, called from the road and left a message that I would be running 15 min late. By the time I got there, they locked me out, I had to wait another 20 min before one of those unfriendly beauticians came out, and they charged me immediately a $27 fee. A first time client!!! Really??? Do not give them your credit card. These people are thieves. read more

Tara did a amazing job . I'll for sure going back very professional and quick didn't feel any pain

Tara was amazing, she made the experience so painless and comfortable! The room was really clean and the wax stuff and creams she used felt great read more

Awesome first experience with Christina. I have really sensitive skin, waxing usually causes irritation. I have to say when I left there was no irration or redness on my face! Definitely recommend! read more

I love Tara, she is literally the best. She takes her time with you and explains everything! She will make sure that you are comfortable and she deff makes the experience. I will NEVER go to another waxer. If you're thinking of getting a Brazilian you should deff book it with her. I Promise she wont let you down. Tara is the best, very professional and caring!!!!! read more

Pretty good wax but some hairs were left behind. Before leaving I would check to ensure all your hairs are removed. The owner was sweet and I did not have to wait. The front desk staff needs major improvement. read more

I got a groupon for a Brazilian wax. I've gotten a lot of them before but this was by far the most awkward/worst experience. I went into the room as Lanisha (the wax tech) was heating up the wax and she told me to just undress. She didn't leave the room or anything and then I had to lay on a bare table. There wasn't a sheet or towel to lay on or ANY thing to cover up with. It was just very uncomfortable. She didn't ask me what exactly I wanted but I also didn't speak up. The waxing part was okay but I won't be back because it was just that awkward. read more

First time visiting and Thelma made my visit well worth it. She is super friendly, patient and offered excellent tips to maintain and decrease sensitivity! Definitely a must if your looking for excellent service and quality work. read more

I didn't even get to the salon before my dissatisfaction started. I was refused my Groupon appointment and my appointment was changed without anyway to contact them. I was notified of everything through text, which is great, but there is no other way to contact a real person through phone and they don't provide their email. Had to DM the business on Facebook and never heard anything back about my situation. I was never able to cancel my appointment like a kind person usually does...because once again the website wouldn't let me (even after they texted saying I wasn't allowed to use my Groupon because I didn't purchase it before scheduling my appointment, which it didn't not specify on Groupon OR THEIR OWN WEBSITE. If you are organized and want a place you can communicate with, go somewhere else. read more

thee best! i love it there and everyone is so nice and make u feel comfortable. i wax with all of them because they all do good!

Great atmosphere, friendly staff, great services. Tara is awesome!

I had my first appointment with Lanisha there. She was nice and my wax was great and the place is cute. I followed the directions sent and found it with no problem at all. It's pretty obvious that she can't leave the room while I got undressed bc I would be exposed to every one outside once she opened it to come back in! She turns around while you're undressing so there was nothing awkward about it at all. It's a Brazilian wax! It's not like she's not going to see everything anyway!! I will go back! read more
