From the moment I…read morewalked in, the entire atmosphere felt welcoming and professional without being intimidating -- which honestly makes all the difference when you're trusting someone with your face. After 16 years of getting tox and aesthetic treatments, I don't say this lightly -- this was one of the best experiences I've had. Cara was exceptional. She really took the time to understand what I was looking for and approached everything with both expertise and a genuine sense of care. Nothing felt rushed or transactional -- it felt thoughtful, precise, and completely tailored to me. Her technique was gentle, her explanations were clear, and her attention to detail was obvious throughout the entire appointment as well as my follow-up visit. The results were exactly what I hoped for -- smooth, natural and refreshed without looking overdone. She really prioritizes both technical skill and client experience. I left feeling confident, taken care of and already looking forward to my next visit. Highly recommend Cara and Vanity Skin Bar to anyone considering tox or aesthetic treatments. Truly top-tier.

I flew in from California and I can truly say, this has become my favorite spot for lashes. The quality of the lashes is outstanding-lightweight, natural-looking and they are just stunning.

I didn't get that kind of information from a few people I have tried in Southern California. The staff (including the owner) genuinely care about their customers and take pride in their work. I cannot wait to try out their other services offered. Very HIGHLY recommend to anyone looking to be pampered by a team that truly cares and you leave looking like a million bucks!

There is no other makeup artist that I would go to. She considers things like sensitive skin and your comfort level with makeup. And she kills it every single time! No heavy caked on makeup, light and smooth, just enhancing the beauty you have. She is very flexible with appointments and she is also mobile. She has been a makeup artist to many of the Baltimore fashion events, New York Fashion events including Fashion Week and The Victoria's Secret Fashion shows. She does proms, weddings, birthday's you name it. Her prices are so reasonable, and you aren't suckered into purchasing products just to get your face done, you want to to see if you can repeat the beat...you can't....I tried, lol. Try her out. Give her a call, it's a real treat. Take it from a girl that hated makeup. She also makes clothing and jewelry so if you book her and are interested in custom pieces, tell her at the time you book your appointment. Tell her you found her on Yelp and that I sent you. She's new to the Yelp world, so welcome her with open arms. Thankkkkkks!

I'm posting this review exactly 1 day shy of being 3 months out from my double eyelid surgery. I…read morecan sum my experience up in one statement - I wish I'd done it sooner! I'd debated double eyelid surgery my whole life but got really interested during COVID. I saw some tapes that claimed they could give permanent double eyelids by using for 6 months or more every night. They worked...until they didn't! When the double eyelids stopped showing up one morning, what I did realize was how looser/lower the skin had gotten from the repeated crease tracing and tapes. Not good at all when compounded with how fatty/thick my eyelids naturally are. I also realized how my eyelids were getting in the way. I was unconsciously raising my right eyebrow pretty much the entire day in order to see better as the eyelid was covering so much of my pupil (which is also to say that my eyelashes were basically invisible at that point). I was starting to develop a wrinkle on the right side of my forehead only from this. Given my family has been debating a trip to Korea for a while, I also thought about pushing off getting my eyelids done in Korea. But I didn't want to spend a good week or so of precious vacation time dealing with recovery. Plus, what if something DID go wrong, I wanted a local doctor I could easily follow up with! I booked a consultation with Dr. Chaboki as he had the best portfolio out of all local doctors. This area already has a limited pool so I wasn't too hopeful when I first searched, and was worried I might have to go to NY or CA to find a doctor familiar with Asian eye anatomy. I needn't have worried as Dr. Chaboki gave me the exact results I wanted. I merely wanted my lashline visible and a defined fold. I've heard some doctors push ptosis correction (even in cases where it might not be needed), and epicanthoplasty alongside double eyelid procedures but there was none of that here. After all, ptosis is a medical condition and a whole different procedure. I booked the surgery and took a 1.5 weeks off of work, even though I work from home, because I knew my eyes would be tired. The procedure was easy-peasy, not to minimize anything since it's still a surgical procedure, but it was so tolerable. I had no ill effects (compliance with aftercare instructions is of utmost importance!). I will say there was a big difference at the 6 week mark in terms of healing. A really natural look settled in by then. And now at 3 months there's an even bigger difference and I don't think anyone would be able to tell unless I disclosed it. Very happy with my results and Dr. Chaboki is clearly a master at his craft and he's SO specialized in facial work, it really immediately shows!

They have one laser - the Alma diode - and didn't seem to care that the Alma diode laser is not appropriate for black skin. Also, there is no Dermatologist just a "doctor down the hall" affiliated with this center. When I went for a test dose and it hurt like hell! A day later I had 2nd degree burns from the test dose!! During my first and only visit, I asked what I thought were simple questions: what kind of skin care would be appropriate and inappropriate to use before laser treatment, name of a numbing agent they could recommend. All I got were vague responses. They did not seem the least bit knowledgeable about laser treatment. This was very annoying to me and bells started to go off in my head. To make things worse, one staff even recommended that I do my own online search! Well I did and found out all too late that the only appropriate laser for black skin is the YAG. These people seemed to have no clue. Though I did chose to come to this location because it was close to my home, I will say that if you are a woman of color - you should think twice before coming here. There are other reputable medi spas that have far more experience working with black skin and the Alma diode is the WRONG laser for you! My other problem is that you should never expect that if you call the office during business hours that they will actually pick up the phone. I spent one saturday calling for 2 hours straight with no pick-up. The only good thing I can say is that the staff seemed friendly and the other customers that came in seemed satisfied. Update - I was surprised to discover today that Yelp has an interesting practice of filtering reviews with some long winded and convoluted reasoning to justify their practices (smh). Until today, I didn't know others had written poor reviews of this place for months! So if you don't see all the other negative reviews then scroll to the bottom of my review and click FILTERED and type in the captcha code. Update #2 I found a review on Google Reviews for this sham business by someone named Kelly Young and it just goes to show that this business tries very hard to inflate itself. Clearly this silly Kelly Young has not read the Yelp reviews. I seriously doubt this business is in good standing the BBB and as for Groupon continuing to promote their services, well that really reflects poorly on Groupon given all the complaints and requests for refunds. I included this update because if what Kelly Young says is true then apparently the "Doctor (?owner) is a surgeon with 2 private practices and privileges at the best hospitals in Maryland." This is scary indeed because if this is true then I think the State of MD licensing board would be interested to know that one of its licensees is negligent and harming patients. Since that review is on Google Reviews I have to assume it is true but it if anyone knows for sure that it is wrong information then send me and email...Just food for thought.

Kerri speaks way too fast and the whole staff seemed bothered doing their job. I had to stop her multiple times and ask for clarification. Could be because it was close to closing but definitely not coming back. I'd rather drive an hour plus for my usual dermatologist.

I was looking for a more convenient place to get my hair done, and a friend recommended this salon…read moreto me. Her hair looked great, so I decided to give it a go and booked an appointment with the same person. I was skeptical that enough time had been allotted for my appointment, so I called to ask if I needed to come earlier or more time needed to be set aside, but they assured my my stylist was experienced and someone else could always dry my hair if needed (which was totally fine with me). The stylist and I had a conversation about what I wanted my hair to look like (really just a touch up, partial foil, not too cool) and then he got to work. They put me under the dryer while my hair processed, which no one had ever done before. I assume to speed things up? As predicted, my stylist ran out of time, so another stylist had to dry my hair. As she began drying the front pieces, I realized that my hair was not looking as I had hoped. It was WAY too cool-toned (platinum) for my skin tone, and there was a harsh line about a quarter in from my scalp. It was blended beautifully from side-to-side, with no stripiness whatsoever, but it looked like it had already grown out and I hadn't even left yet. The stylist who was drying my hair was extremely kind and understanding, and ended up putting a toner on it to help blend the roots. My hair ended up being darker than I would normally prefer (we swung from one end to the other!) but at least it didn't look terrible and would hopefully grow out okay. The manager was also very nice and understanding, and she (1) did not charge me for any of the extra services, (2) took a bit off my total, and (3) gave me several sample products. They did the best they could. I considered going back and seeing the stylist who attempted to fix my hair, as she would have really understood what I was looking for and seemed competent, but I was embarrassed to run into my original stylist again, particularly as he was the owner of the salon. I ended up going somewhere else just six weeks later (which is WAY sooner than I normally go--I'm a 3-4x a year person, but it had grown out pretty bad already), and was much happier with their results.
