    Gel Mani
    Melissa M.

    After not getting a wax in over a year in a half I decided to give freckle a chance after reading the reviews and my manager ravings about it. Anya did not only make me feel comfortable but made the procedure quick and less painful than any wax I've ever received. She really does have the best hands ever lol. A wax will always hurt but the pain was bearable and not as excruciating as others I've experienced. I will be going to her for all my waxes. I had her do my eyebrows and they look great. Marta gave me pedicure and gel manicure which was one of the best I've ever received. I never know what color I should do and Marta took out a few colors and helped me find a color and was nice enough to show me how they each look. Great service all around! Book ahead since its a small business but believe me you won't regret it!!!

    Their signature mask! My skin is always perfect after a day at Freckle :)

    Face it - I am a Freckle groupie No where else do I get hot tea or coffee during pedicures. Everything is super clean. The quality of work is so high and the color choices are broad. But the number one reason why I love this place.... THE WONDERFUL TEAM! They always make sure you are comfortable and relaxed.

    Been almost a week and the polish is still going strong! The color is Essie's "Butler Please".

    The space was a lot smaller and more sparse than I'd imagined, with only two pedi stations, but the technicians are very warm and seem thorough in their service. There were, as I understand from my observations, a number of returning or regular clients that afternoon, which is always an indication of business done well. I went in for a spa pedicure (about $37) and was matched with Annette who had lovely smiling eyes and who immediately set me up with some chamomile tea before starting. She carefully administered all the elements of their spa pedicure -- which were typical of spa pedis at any other salon I've been to -- and was strong in scrubbing my heels, which are pretty awful this time of the year. The salon is close to the Nassau station on the G line. It was a bit of a distance for me (walked from Williamsburg, commuted from Manhattan) but in the end I'm glad I put my money in an honest neighborhood salon where I didn't feel rushed or overlooked. Their nail polish selection includes Essie, Zoya, RGB, and Floss Gloss with two or three Deborah Lippmann choices. Will definitely return when I find myself in Brooklyn again, esp for waxing services which seemed popular during my visit.

    Anya is the best at waxing! Fast and painless. She's a sweet, hardworking business owner. I've been going to Anya for 10 years.

    Although brazilian waxes are not meant to be pain free, she definitely tried to make it as painless as possible.

The waxes themselves are great and I have appreciated the staff and their technique. 1. I signed up for the Face Fix Membership. In the buying process, the Face Fix does not have a description of what it includes/excludes. I only discovered that it included 2 services/month when I tried to book a third service in the same month. Sure - ok maybe just a website issue... so I emailed them and have not heard back for a week+. But then, on top of that... 2. I canceled before my billing date (a day or two before), and for some reason, it's locking me into this membership until THE END OF SEPTEMBER - TWO months from now. I will obviously be disputing this with my credit card company, but it's pretty sus to me that it takes a month to "process by cancellation request." I've checked my confirmation email and there is nothing about a membership cancellation notice. There is also a "processing fee" of $15 to get your membership set up, which I accepted when I bought the membership. Anyways, my advice is to use the services at Uni Wax, but be very careful about what you're signing up for because they are employing some pretty sketchy practices.

Prior to this location, I was a customer at the location near Union Square for about 4 years but thankfully, the Williamsburg location is closer to my home so I switched. I started out going to Shivani who went out on maternity leave and recommended Emely so I have been going to her for over a year now. Emely is amazing! She's very good at her job but she's also friendly and attentive. I have made it clear that the products aren't the best for my skin so I only buy the body butter. As a result, she does not push me to purchase products which can be frustrating to constantly have products pushed on you. If Emely leaves, I'm going wherever she goes!

She is an overweight woman with short hair. My friend called me crying after being waxed by her. The first thing albina said to her when she walked in was "where are you from?" My friend is Palestinian, so when she said she was, albina continued for the entire session to proceed to say to my friend disgusting, terrible, uneducated opinions on politics and religion. She asked intrusive questions and argued with my friend, while my friend was spread eagle and vulnerable on the table getting waxed. This is another example of terrible, uneducated white Europeans and Americans that just think they can say whatever they've been reading their whole lives, with zero consequence. Palestinians are not responsible for the miss-education of white Europeans in this country. Albina also didn't provide any type of cooling or oil support after the wax, nor did she tweeze out any ingrown hairs, and didn't do a good job, proving this racist encounter further. Do not go to European wax center, there are a million other brown waxers in NY that won't make you cry, and actually do the job right. Albina, you deserve to be fired.
