I had never gotten either of these services before so I had a lot of questions which Kayla answered patiently and personably. She has such a friendly and bubbly personality! The eyelash tint was a little uncomfortable for me but this may be because I was wearing contacts. I probably would take those out next time and maybe even consider a lift and tint since the tint by itself looked nice but was really subtle. Kayla made me feel very comfortable for the spray tan and did an excellent job with the color and tone. I was obsessed! It definitely faded a bit after the third or fourth day but to be fair, I was on vacation and swimming in the ocean and pool a lot. All together the services were $65 which I don't think is bad at all. I'd definitely return and would recommend booking at this local biz!

The services never feel rushed, and everything is explained in detail so you know what's happening before, during and after.

The space is clean and inviting, and you can book your appointments online, over the phone, or at the desk while you're there.

So I've been getting skin treatments off and on at high-end establishments that are frequented by…read moremany of the North Baltimore's who's who. Suffice it to say that I've had some very good treatments with very professional staff. I decided to give Laser Away a try when I answered an Instagram ad. I was skeptical of their low per unit prices for Botox/Xiamen. I'm not crazy about how their national switchboard will bug you to death when you answer an online inquiry. However, I made an appointment through text messaging and phone calls and then showed up at my appointment in Baltimore. Everybody was super friendly and helpful. The place is very clean if not minimalist. I went back in the back with my nurse who was very thorough and answered my 400 questions about all of the different things they offer here. One thing the nurse will not do is quote you a price in the treatment room. If you are interested in any of their services you have to go up to the front and then they text or email you a link and you get your exorbitant price for whatever service they offer. When I tell you that they are expensive, child, they are expensive. But when I compared it to other establishments' posted rates for the same services, they were pretty competitive. I came for skin injections; you know, wrinkle remover/ muscle relaxing, that sort of thing. They used fewer units than I was quoted that they would need, but that's fine because the way they work here is you buy a bank of units and then you use those units that you need and the rest or bank for a later visit. So out of the 90 they said they thought I would need I ended up using roughly 70 of them, including a follow up touch up appointment. I decided at six dollars a unit I might as well just get a big bank of them so I have an eternity's worth of units. So I'm back because my frown muscles have the godly strength of Mars and I don't want to be able to frown at all. It scares my students. (My excuse). I chatted up the front desk staff about some of their new injectables and was offered a warm beverage while I waited. Bottom line is that you'll have to pay for the services or units upfront. You can finance them through a third-party if you need to. To give you an idea I got 300 units of Xiamen for roughly $6 a unit and I had the choice of 0% financing (go good credit) or getting the airline points. Either way, $6 a unit?' Y'all who know, know. Come expecting to be pampered and treated with respect . Whether you're a gorgeous young thing or a middle aged man comme moi, you'll leave well-treated and served. My only criticism would be that much of their literature and their promotions are geared towards lighter skinned female-presenting people. I would like to see more darker completed and male-presenting people in their promotions and staff.

I also experienced repeated appointment delays, including waiting 30 minutes to an hour past my scheduled time, and on one occasion had to cancel and reschedule because the nurse was so far behind that no one could tell me when I would be seen. The lack of communication, consistency, and accountability has been extremely frustrating. I paid for my treatment in full, but I no longer feel comfortable trusting the staff at this location. I would not recommend this location based on my experience.

She made me feel grotesque and foolish before even asking about my history or what my gender journey has been like - instead she just "couldn't believe I had been walking around looking like that". I've felt never felt so disrespected by someone who was supposed to be administering me care. I contemplated just leaving right then and there, but I thought she would've insulted me further by charging me a cancelation fee on top of the humiliation. Instead of apologizing, she continued to double and triple down on what she had said throughout the session, especially once she learned that my occupation is as a visual merchandiser in a clothing store. I was recently diagnosed with Dermatographic Urticaria - which is a condition that is also known as skin drawing - which makes shaving a very difficult and painful process. I have a lower pain tolerance and used a numbing cream a few hours before hand on the right side of my face - as I have had previous electrolysis treatments on that side. I told Stacey this, but she insisted that she work on both sides of my face, even after I told her I would prefer not to because of my pain tolerance. She also told me that I made her feel bad for crying after she insulted me. Stacey claims to be a 'Trans Ally" but if she really was, she never would have treated me the way that she did.

I am thoroughly confused why the Manager would book me when my requested person isn't in?? This has now cost me significant time, trust, and patience. Being offered other estheticians after I've made my preference known is not acceptable for this type of service. This is completely unprofessional, negligent and a poor representation of this corporate brand.

With said information, I decided to make an appointment. I arrived at Village Electrolysis early one Saturday morning and found a nice unassuming building near Northern Parkway. The Village Electrolysis office gave me old world decor vibes, but when it was time for business, all the modern bells and whistles were available. Brian greeted me and had me fill out a brief medical history form. He then gave me a very detailed explanation about the various electrolysis methods and processes and which one would be best for my situation, etc etc. After that, I practically leapt on the table to receive my first treatment. NGL and say electrolysis feels good, because it doesn't. HOWEVER, Brian made it as painless as possible, while being incredibly thorough. I've had laser hair removal treatments before and they were unpleasant, marked with the smell of burning hair. Electrolysis with Brian was 1,000x better. Several days later I am happy to report micro pigmentation has barely occurred (with laser I suffered HUGE dark spots I had to cover with concealer) and the hair has left the building for the time being. Very happy with my first treatment and will be riding this train with Brian until all the hair is gone.

I knocked, and called several times, NO Answer!!! After the fifth call, I finally got a text message. The message basically stated that she had an emergency and could not do my appointment. I did not receive a phone call or a text message telling me this prior to getting to the business. Then you text me instead of answering the phone. Very unprofessional!!! I expressed that no one even contacted me before coming here. I would love not to have driven here and burn gas, because gas is not cheap!!! She said that she did NOT have my number saved and could not reach me, but I made the appointment just the day prior and she asked me for my number so whose fault is that? I honestly think she messed up, and got her days mixed up when she booked my appointment, because on her door the hours of operation for today are from 10 AM to 5 PM, remind you she made my appointment for 630pm. I also noticed that any other day she usually opens till 8 o'clock so I believe she just blatantly forgot about me based on this..... Nevertheless, she's unprofessional, and I will not go back to her, and I will not recommend her!!!

She uses soft wax (the kind removed with strips of cloth), which I think is less painful, and it was warm but not hot. Overall, just a very positive experience. The studio is one door down from Dangerously Delicious Pies on the Square, so street parking is usually not an issue. It is on the third floor of the building and I don't think there is an elevator, so beware of that if stairs are a problem.
