I think I might also have pretty sensitive, delicate skin that gets irritated/inflamed easily. But I was (really) sore around my eyebrows for like 2-3 days, and seemed to get some bruising. So taking off one star for that. Some hairs were already growing back by day 4. But I do still appreciate the aloe gel at the end (I bought my own 99% pure aloe gel - highly recommend that you do to!) Very quick, welcoming and no frills service. I walked in on a Sunday afternoon and was promptly greeted and seated (there was maybe only one other client). There were two eyebrow technicians it seems and one lady at the front desk. They are a walk-in only clinic. The space was compact but clean. Kamal, who did my eyebrow threading was very nice. The service was done in maybe less than 10 minutes - they will have you pull your skin tight around your eyebrow area for them. And yes, for first timers it will pinch (I winced a few times) but nothing unbearable. The service was quick and good - my brows look clean and sharp, so clearly the ladies here are very skilled! There is also an aloe cream that they apply at the end to soothe the area. This was all for $14. So if you are looking for something very reasonably priced, efficient, and no frills this is the place!

What a terrible experience! I desperately needed a manicure, but my go-to nail techs (shoutout to…read moreSoniya and Lisa!) weren't available. So, I ended up with whoever was free, and it was pretty obvious why they weren't already booked. I made a last-minute appointment for a quick manicure, and I got stuck with Vivian, who gave me one of the worst manicures ever. It felt like she didn't want to be there at all. All I wanted was my cuticles trimmed and nails shaped--no gel, dip, tips, just my natural nails. That wasn't her vibe. She skipped the buffing block and did a lousy job filing and shaping. I even had to remind her to make my nails the same length, which she huffed about. When I washed my hands, she asked if I wanted clear nail polish. I said no, and she said, "You're done." I had to ask about the warm towel and hand lotion, and she brought those out all begrudgingly. I paid in cash, and she just walked off when I asked for change to leave a tip. So, I ended up leaving my tip at the front desk, which is incredible since I've been coming here for years. I hope they provide her with some customer service training.

Spending time at her salon was so therapeutic. Her positive energy, professionalism, attention to detail, and genuine care for her clients truly set her apart. It's rare to find someone who is not only talented at what they do but also creates an atmosphere that leaves you feeling refreshed and uplifted. Thank you so much, Cearra, for such a wonderful experience. I can't wait for my next appointment!

5/2/25: Yelp seems to have a photo issue. To see all screenshots and harassment, my Google Guide…read morereview includes those: https://g.co/kgs/LttMo7h While I did not fully read this business owner's rambling, incoherent response, I did scan it briefly and saw she suggested that she told me to see a dermatologist. Interesting since I've long had one and use prescription shampoo from my dermatologist at my hair appointments. A cosmetology license would be useful, and might teach this unlicensed stylist that spreading lies about a person's health online is additional grounds for harassment charges. This is the last warning I will give before contacting law enforcement. I also would never take medical advice from a self-professed conspiracy theorist who by her own admission does not vaccinate her children, during a time when measles is spreading in the U.S, more than we've seen in decades -- an outbreak that began due to unvaccinated children in Texas. I was not going to elaborate on the damage, but seems I should. My LICENSED hair stylist friend had to remove glue out of most of my hair. I have photos and videos of my hair previously -- before this unlicensed stylist talked me into trying a frontal. I have new hair loss all over my head because the glue was extremely difficult to remove, See attached photo. The frontal install was terrible and showed lack of skill because my real hair was not protected. My licensed hair stylist friend is willing to testify about this damage and said he knew this person was unlicensed by the terrible frontal/sew-in install. Now off to enjoy my weekend! I originally did not share all of my documentation but this person seems unhinged. I will let the evidence speak for itself. I am done with this unlicensed stylist -- unless it becomes clear I need to contact law enforcement and file for for a peace order, which I'm seriously considering. I will include the screenshots from her last unhinged response if I do so. Potential customers: Ask yourself if this is the temperament you want in a hair stylist -- someone willing to slander clients online for telling the truth about how they were treated. -- 5/1/25 Adding additional screenshots to refute more lies from this business owner, who continues to not take accountability. I will not reply further, as a "business" that operates this way is not worth my time. The way she speaks says more than any additional info I can provide.

My aesthetician was Ciara. I had my eyebrows, lips, under arms and Brazilian done. At soon as I walked in, I can smell weed on her, especially as her hands were close to my face, and I smelled it on her breathing on me. But that's not the worst. It felt like I was the first customer because the wax was really hot. I had mentioned it to her several times that it was hot and she even told me that she noticed it so when she did my eyebrows but she continued to do my eyebrows and upper lips. She even put more wax on top even after she said that she notice it. I did keep on letting her know that it was still too hot. She asked if this was the first time I've had wax done, and I told her - no. I've been getting waxed for the last 25 years. When I got to my car to check my face, I had large noticeable burnt spots under my eyebrows, both left and right and over my upper lip, both left and right. I went back to the store to show the manager, Francesca Moreira, to complain about the burn spots from Ciara. The manager told me that it looks a little red; and when I told her to look closer and that Ciara actually burnt skin off, she told me that she was not certified to say so or not. It does not take a genius to see that skin was taken from the hot wax. There's a huge difference. I'm not sure how she is the manager of a team of aestheticians, and not certified just to see that Ciara, or other aestheticians, actually took skin off when Ciara waxed my eyebrows and upper lip. I had to ask to talk to the Regional Manager, Tony Badolato, but she only offered to provide me an email. I had to call back several times because she provided two incorrect emails where it was undeliverable because it didn't exist. Finally, the front desk provided me with the correct one. It took 3x times to get a hold of the regional manager. I had to go to work with burnt scabs on my face. I cried upset over the whole experience. Bottom line, I will not be coming back to any European Wax location. This experience destroyed any expectation I might have with any other aesthetician they might have on staff or the managers they hire who don't have training or is certified in the service they provide. If I could give ZERO stars, I would. I did get reimbursed but not until after I was asked to provide pictures for proof by the Regional Manager. It was a horrific experience. Never again.

Overall, I'm happy to have brows finally :)

I recently had microblading done here and unfortunately the experience was very frustrating. From…read morethe beginning, I felt my eyebrows were not balanced. When I pointed this out, the technician repeatedly told me that everyone's face is shaped differently. While I understand that perfectly symmetrical brows aren't natural, I specifically came to a professional to help shape and balance my eyebrows in a way that suits my face. It was difficult trying to explain what I was seeing. I felt like my concerns were not really being acknowledged, and I had to keep advocating for adjustments. The technician did map out the brows before starting, but the imbalance was still noticeable to me. Eventually, she did make changes, but the response I received was "whatever makes you happy," which felt dismissive rather than collaborative. By that point I was already quite frustrated because I felt I had to push hard just to be heard. I believe communication and listening to the client are very important in a service like microblading. I wanted to trust the artist, but I also expected my concerns about balance to be taken seriously.
