I was a customer for about 5 months. No problem with dip powder until I decided to try the gel set…read morecalled "Tiana Collection" As Ken started the set, I noticed a burning sensation after the 2nd nail was done. I let him know it was burning and suggested he lower the UV light that he used to set the gel. He mentioned that the light only had 1 setting and that he couldn't change it. As he continued, I suggested to move the heated UV lamp further away from my nail bed as the temperature and position he had it in was burning my nail bed. I mentioned this as a reminder several times. When I got home that evening, I had to take Tylenol and add ice to my nails to sooth the burning sensation. At this point, I was concerned because the burning radiated from my fingers up my arms. Went the at shop opened, I contacted Ken to let him know what happened. He had me come in to remove the gel. I also asked for compensation, at least a percentage of my money back or have him do dip set later. Jennifer told me they took the gel set off, and took time doing my nails, so there was no compensation or refund of any kind. I suggested to file an insurance claim as this was an injury due to a product they provided. She told me insurance will not pay for it and she didn't see whether I deserved a refund. I have never experienced this sort of hospitality or service at any nail salon. I came here as a referral from a coworker. While still getting familiar with this area, I thought this place would offer great service. If you are thinking of getting nails done at here, be aware because it's not about customer service it's more about money for them. I always wondered why fee for services changed often when I got the same thing each time. Hidden fees no consideration for how they treat their customers. Deluxe pedi and gel with 2 horrible nail designs totaled - $145 and still burning from lamp. Go someplace else. UPDATE: Several hours later, Jennifer, the owner, left me a voicemail asking me to call her back. I returned the call believing she might offer an apology, discount, or some form of resolution. Instead, the conversation focused on my review and why I had posted it. She reiterated that because I chose the service, I was not entitled to any compensation. When I suggested continuing the discussion after she finished with her customer, she declined and continued explaining why she would not provide a refund, discount, or credit. This entire experience was disappointing. Mistakes and adverse reactions can happen, but what stood out to me was being told, "I'm not going to argue with you," when I was simply expressing surprise and concern about what had happened. I was not arguing at all, and the comment felt dismissive. I was left wondering whether I was being treated differently, possibly because I am an African American woman. Regardless of the reason, I did not feel heard or respected during the conversation. Reactions can happen, but how a business responds to a customer who has been injured or harmed by a service says a lot about its values. Unfortunately, I felt dismissed, blamed, and left without any Potential customers should be aware of my experience and make their own informed decision. Wow

I went with my girlfriend to get waxed and have been going to her for my skin care services ever since!! Requesting her services is super easy as you can book online through her website.

Her suite is lovely and has calming vibes as well. I come all the way from DC to have Sunny perform my skin care! If you are in the Upper Marlboro/Bowie/Crofton/Gambrills/Odenton area (or not lol), check out her services! She is worth the drive!

I would be lying if I said areas still aren't tender after hours of having it done, but they are. It's not too bad though. Just breathe, pull your stomach taut, and talk to her and you'll be fine. Also because of COVID, she has on a mask and a face shield so I felt safe.

I've been getting Brazilians for the past 6 years. This place is RUSHED. You will be expected to strip while the esthetician is in the room and you will get dressed while she's talking to you. The esthetician only talks to you about waxing, not super personable. Nothing there to make you comfortable. No pillows or decor or conversation. The entire time I was there took 15 minutes. She didn't let me check to see if everything looked good. So, you're just guessing what to tip. After, they force you to book your next appointment. I guess to make you come back. But personally, I'm not sure that I will. I'm already uncomfortable being spread eagle naked for a stranger, but nothing about this place made it any easier. Staff was vaping at the side of the building. Yelling you can hear from the room you're getting waxed in. Esthetician talking at the speed of light about your hair growth pattern.

Highly recommend her to all.

She is compassionate, kind, and creates a safe space in her clinic. My skin has improved and healed drastically, the products and treatments she recommends are effective.

She is a kindred spirit who cares about her clients overall wellbeing and really takes her time with each person to address their needs. I had been to dermatologists in the past and felt like that experience was impersonal and honestly, a waste of my time and so sadly disappointing. I was so depressed when I first walked in and Jessica made me feel at home right away, and for each visit after. She has made a HUGE difference in my skin and she's also someone who has great energy. I'm going to continue to see her for all my skin needs!
