I would give 10/10 to this beautiful establishment. I have tried a few wax places, including…read moreEuropean Wax Center, but Top Notch Waxing is my favorite. I've been getting my wax done at Top Notch for almost 2 years now. I used to go to the Union City location while working in San Jose. Since they opened in San Jose, I was extremely happy because I'm only 10 minutes from their Meridian location. I would recommend any of their locations for waxing, brows, and facials. They specialize in these services. They maintain the same standards and customer care at both locations, which is so hard to find. Rinkal, the owner of the business, is very experienced and can guide you through your skin care goals. She helped me with lots of tips and care to improve my skin over the course of 2 years. I'm very happy with my results. She is very detail-oriented and helpful. Also, they have great packages if you want to buy 3 Brazilian wax sessions, which cost only $180. I use 3 sessions and then renew the package. They never keep any card on file for unexpected charges, which has happened to me at other places. I will definitely be their regular customer as long as I'm living in the Bay Area.

I've been going to Top Notch for years, which is why this experience was especially disappointing…read more After my eyebrow wax, the technician pointed out that my left upper eyelid looked much redder than the right. When I got home, I realized part of the skin on my upper eyelid had been ripped off during the waxing. I contacted the salon immediately, and the owner was trying to help me... however, I understand asking whether I was on antibiotics is a standard question, but even after I explained that I wasn't on any medication and sent a photo clearly showing a skin tear, I felt the focus was more on finding another explanation than acknowledging the injury. I followed every aftercare instruction exactly as advised, applying ointment every three hours and avoiding hot water for the next 36 hours. When my eyelid remained swollen and painful, I reached out again and asked if they could refund my eyebrow service. Instead, I was told : " I'm sorry it still is in bad condition but it looks like you didn't use any ointment like I suggested" As someone who cares about my skin and previously worked in the aesthetics industry, that assumption was extremely disappointing because I had followed their instructions carefully. I understand that accidents can happen during waxing. What disappointed me was how that was handled afterward. As a long-time customer, I expected more professionalism and accountability.

I had an appointment for a brow wax and before we began, I explained that I wanted to keep my arch and I also don't want it to be too thin. I wanted to maintain the shape. And KJ listened to rant and concerns. The results exceeded my expectations and I'm so grateful to her. Love my brows! Looking forward to my next appointment! Would highly recommend KJ at European Wax Center! Very welcoming, kind and talented team!

Upon arrival, there wasn't much pleasantries and hardly any conversation while I was waxed.

My brows were cleaned up but they had no shape and were thinner than I'd like. This felt like a very basic wax place and I was disappointed with the results. I won't be returning

For threading brows, waxed upper lip, and underarms I pay $24 before tip which would easily be $50+ at another facility. Pari is kind, warm, and efficient which I appreciate greatly as I don't have to make an appt and have at most waited 10 minutes. The business accepts cash and card/Apple Pay which is a plus. It is a great small business in Newark I love to support to get my monthly maintenance done. I highly recommend if you want a quick service, it is not a spa or boujee place it does the job and for the price you're paying that's all you can ask for. I actually enjoy going here since I know Pari will be the only one cleaning my brows which she has been for the past 4-5 years now with her previous employer.
