Updating my review to talk about the facial I just received from Renee!! Omgggg! This is hands down…read morethe best facial I've ever gotten! I just got home from a Vegas vacation where I definitely drank more than normal and my skin hated it. I was so happy I had this appointment booked because I haven't had a bad breakdown like this is probably over a year. I just told her to do whatever she thinks my skin needs. My skin feels incredible!!! My face was glowing and can't wait for this crazy break out to finally go away. Her massages are amazing! She also did an amazing job with extractions. I haven't had someone in the past that was as thorough as she was. Sometimes you just wish Yelp offered more than 5 stars! I can't recommend Renee enough and so excited I found my new go to esthetician.

I use to go to Chicago Lashes in Chicago and they did a horrible job towards the last few appts (went to them for almost 2 yrs). They didnt care about detail.. They just wanted their money. They clumped lashes together.. Erin does not.. She truly appreciates the HEALTH of your lashes. The shop is cute and you can even walk around after and shop. It is located in downtown Wheaton. There is free garage parking right next store.. What more could you ask for?! I am extremely pleased with Erin! She is very nice and does excellent work!!!!

I cannot say enough wonderful things about my experiences with Mari. I have been coming to Mari for…read morebikini waxes for over a year now and would not dream of going to anyone else. Besides being ridiculously nice and delightful, Mari is professional, ALWAYS on time, and reasonably priced. Prior to Mari my bikini waxes were, without exception, painful. I seriously do not know how she does it but I am able to carry on a conversation or check email and never flinch once. I kid you not - not only is there no pain but there is no measure of even the slightest discomfort. She is located just a few doors down from Ellyn's Tap in the Sola Salon space.

This was an unexpectedly great experience! I recently moved to Indy and have been struggling to…read morefind a waxing salon that does a great job at a reasonable price. Not only that, but the number of salons is surprisingly small! I was on my way to Chicago for the weekend with a quick stop at a friend's in Wheaton... And I couldn't get a waxing appointment in Indy! I did a little research on Yelp and called The Wax Effect, being pretty sure that i wouldn't be able to get an appointment. To my surprise, Marilu made some time for me after her normal Saturday closing time. And to my delight, she did a great job! I have been getting Brazilians since 1997 when I started going to J Sisters in NYC, and I think that this was one of the most thorough and painless waxing jobs I have ever had. It was such a great surprise! My only regret is that I am not local enough to be a regular.

Corrinna was incredibly welcoming, made sure I was comfortable throughout the entire service, and explained everything clearly. She's not only highly skilled and precise in her work, but also genuinely kind and personable -- which makes every visit something to look forward to. The salon itself is spotless, well-maintained, and has a very professional yet relaxing atmosphere. It's clear they take pride in both their service and their space.

So I finally got time today to getting around to writing this review!!! What can I say about…read moreMichelle!! She amazing, lets be honest my first appointment with her for a Brazilian I was nervous. Taking my pants off for a stranger?!?! Whhhattt? Haha but she made the experience more comfortable, just because she is so easy to talk to!! I now go in every month for my Brazilian (ladies if you can afford to do it I would) While a Brazilian can be painful if you keep up with it, it will become less of a hassle!! (The beauty queen Michelle taught me that) I highly recommend her!! Great personality and her spa is clean and welcoming!! Ladies this is the spot to go!!! She is fun and sassy, so if you have a waxer ditch them and come to Michelle ;) If you don't have a waxer book your appointment now!!

Michelle is amazing! I've been going to Blush and Glow since 2013, and have never looked back. I…read morerealized my review from way back when is no longer posted, so I'm here just to give props! I live out of state now, but still come in town for B&G. It is hard to find good service, let alone phenomenal service, and you get that here. I always leave glowing, and with a confidence boost! Don't hesitate, you will have no regrets! Michelle is thorough, professional, and down right hilarious!

I wanted to try somewhere different for my no chip this time, and I saw this place had good…read morereviews, so I thought I'd check it out. I made an appointment and showed up on time, and I got seated right away. I waited for about 15-20 minutes before someone started on my nails since the person I signed up for was running behind. They did communicate that with me, but I would've appreciated quicker service, especially since I had an appointment. As for my nails, I loved the color and the service I got. My nail tech was friendly and took her time. That said, my nails started chipping at about a week and a half, which was very disappointing. Now after 2 weeks, they are chipping significantly. Overall I am not happy that my nails didn't last at least 2 weeks.

I've coming to C'zar, previously Namaste, for 5 years. I'll keep this brief because I'm known to…read moretalk too much and this could get long very quick. I've been getting my hair dyed since middle school. I'm very picky about my Latina hair texture, how it looks, how it's styled, and just... everything. I'm extra like that. However, Andrew is the ONLY HUMAN on this earth is trust with my hair (second to Papa God). My husband and I have considered moving to a different state twice in the past couple of years. When this happens, I don't think about the usual adult things like what am I going to do about my job? The dog? The house? I think.... How am I going to find someone like Andrew to do my hair? If you want someone who will tell you how it is, knows what looks good on you, and will put your hair first over his bottom line, that's Andrew. One time I considered getting a very expensive treatment done (think +$400 keratin treatment), which I'm sure he would've made good money on, and he flat out said "Bella, you don't need that. I'll do it if you really want to, but you don't need it." Absolute pleasure spending my hard earned money at C'zar. The people are amazing (so kind and funny and just human), the atmosphere is so relaxing, plus you can get hand massages and scalp massages when you get shampooed. Coming here is my little slice of Heaven!!! For reference for the pics: I always get balaye-type coloring done. Glazes in between. I come every 2-3 months ish.

This post will mostly be about my incredible massage therapist and Chinese medicine goddess: Chona…read more(like Donna with a CH). I don't think any massage by Chona is the exact same flow. She listens to your body and follows her intuition. Instead of kneading out the knots, she loosens the acupressure spots and releases tension. I also explored acupuncture with her which was a really cool experience. I always leave the spa feeling like a noodle:) I've been to the other Czar salon/spas and this is by far the most modern. I love that the spa is upstairs and away from the hustle/bustle of the salon. It is still a bit distracting because there are hair chairs/space that share a wall with the spa rooms. I guess that's just what you get for going to a spa inside a salon. I'm considering booking their acupuncture /massage special because Chona is incredible. She's been very helpful on my healing journey.
