I had a wonderful experience at Akshi Beauty Salon. I was able to make a last-minute appointment…read morewith the owner on a Sunday a couple of weeks ago, and she did a beautiful job threading my eyebrows, which others have found tricky to do. She did a fantastic job and they're still looking great weeks later! If I lived in the area (I was visiting from out of state), I would DEFINITELY return. The salon was spacious and clean, and the owner was friendly and really listens to what her clients want. If you need any eyebrow or facial services, make sure you book an appointment with Akshi Beauty Salon!

Let me preface this by saying that I called 45 minutes before they closed and they still took me…read morewhen I arrived just about 20 minutes before closing, which I appreciated very much.... They offer a free first service, and I got 2 services so this was a nice touch. All of the staff I encountered were pleasant and professional and I was out in about 10 minutes! While I was there the member performing my services (eyebrows and lip) showed me how they looked and I was very pleased. She cleaned up my eyebrows very nicely but didn't shape them very much, which didn't bother me as I was just looking for them to be straightened out. --Side note: the wax they use was very gentle, no paper glued to your face, just pulling off hot wax which was a very nice change.-- My only complaint comes now that I took a better look at home. My eyebrows are definitely cleaned up but they are some stragglers that I'll have to pluck, and although the wax was gentle it didn't seem to really pull all the hairs completely, I can tell I'll need a wax again very soon unfortunately. Overall I would recommend this place if you're in a time pinch like I was. The experience was pretty good and the service was speedy and professional. **I would've liked to give 3.5 stars but Yelp doesn't allow it, but they definitely deserve more of a 4 than a 3**

What should have been a 15 minute service, took 30 and was of incredibly poor quality. When I…read morearrived, I was asked if would be open to getting a free wax (it seemed as if the water was just finishing training or just finished training) and I agreed to this. I understand that training services aren't just that, but there's also a certain expectation of quality. I had a Brazilian that left a lot of hair behind and the waxer pinched me a number of times trying to get the wax strips off. As I was under a time constraint and had planned for a 15 minute service, I had to stop her after 30 minutes and leave without a complete wax. She was very nice, but the service was incredibly disappointing and left me frustrated

The ladies answering the phone were kind, but I walked in for my consultation and it was not pleasant. A blonde woman sat behind the front desk just asking what I wanted. It felt like a waste of time coming over there when there are many other salons. Salons that would've showed interest by at least sitting me down, showing me colors and touching my hair. I came and got a two minute conversation and told how much it's gonna be. I felt like I was not a valued customer of there and for that, I will not be giving my business.

Jan got me started on pedi & mani with diligent young lady- was great! By 1:12pm Jan was finally ready to cut my hair after shampooing, $15 eyebrow wax that she talked me into, & finally voila, a $55 10-min haircut with no layers nor shape. I asked for side bangs 3 times & each time was met with resistance. "I don't want to cut too short" I gave up after the third ask. Conversation was also intrusive - where do you live? What's your job? What's your ethnicity? This is supposed to be a relaxing experience, not an interrogation. Total bill $145. Will not be going back for sure.

I scheduled meeting Mary for a consult several months ago. I just finished my 6 week touch up appointment and couldn't be happier with the results. Mary is a skilled professional, she walked me through the options available, ultimately I went with an ombré dot rather than line microblading look, which was more in line with what I wanted as an end result. She checked with me for shape and color, it was a collaboration and very reassuring. Measurements were carefully taken and a good amount of time getting numb and check ins to make sure I remained numb for my comfort were appreciated. I loved the results so much I went back for a brow tint a few weeks later and now have become a lash client. I highly recommend the salon to all of my friends & family. This is where you want to go for expert, professional work.
