But the bathing suit I tried on had a security tag with an exposed metal wire that attacked my arm. And then also an exposed / open safety pin that thankfully I avoided. Again, the girls were really nice (provided a wet paper towel and neosporin - no bandaids though) and apologetic but good service is not worth a potentially permanent 5in+ long scar.

I cannot say enough good things about Azaleas, Cindy the owner, and her incredibly patient and…read morehelpful staff. In the winter, I updated my boring bra collection with the most beautiful, perfect pieces from Azaleas (a five star experience that I previously reviewed). This summer, I got a whole new bathing suit wardrobe - picked up nearly every Hunza G style they had in stock, a couple vitamina bikinis, and that amazing Haight red one piece. I love the selection and they made shopping convenient throughout the last few months. Free shipping and then I utilized the in-store pick ups from the coffee shop next door. Now that the shop reopened, I purchased even more bathing suits (whoops!) and Carly could not have been more patient with me as I tried on approximately 100 different suits (thank you!). A wide range of styles and price points but I also trust Cindy to pick really high quality, well-made pieces which makes it easier to justify paying more for the quality. The customer service I have received here is unparalleled and I feel so grateful to have Azaleas as a neighbor in the East Village. One quick warning: the shop may look small but you can spend a lot of time inside!

The sales people were so nice and helpful for suggestions for shapes, colors and material/pads. It was fun to try different colors which I would have never thought to wear and purchased 2 sets. Of course the same bikinis are available online, but it is impossible to see if it fits your body unless you try. I highly recommend the shopping experience in this store!

Today we asked when Karen would be in and got a very cold, snippy, "She's no longer here!". We asked where she went because if she retired, we'd like to get a card to her. The answer we received was a clipped tone and "We don't know." We didn't ask to work with someone else (and they didn't offer) so we left. We'll spend our money somewhere else. We spoke kindly and with respect. We expect the same in return.

Shahlla pulled some great options based on our conversation and my client came away with more than she expected! I was so relieved.

They also have cashew nut juice which you can't find in most other stores which I partook in. The prices were high but it's quite hard to find these things in NYC and their selection was excellent. She apologized for being on the phone while I was bringing the things over and asked what I was trying to find afterwards which was nice. This is a local business and I'll be back to support it again.
