    Ashley M.

    TLDR; amazing cute Instagrammable shop with bar soap, body lotion, face lotion/soap, beard products, bar shampoo/conditioner, chapstick, candles, you name it. Also has an amazing mission - for every purchase, they donate care products to someone in need! They do a lot of amazing work with the homeless population of Akron. Street parking and parking behind the store. Okay I can't get enough of hope soap which is terrible for my bank account but amazing for my friends and family cause I'm constantly coming here to buy them (and myself!) presents!! It's worth the price though, as this small local business values it's community, the environment, and making high quality products. First off, everything is made with high quality ingredients and they have tons of scents of bar soap so they'll definitely have something to suit your fancy. The bar soap is also packaged in plantable paper that has seeds in it ! So cool. If bar soap isn't your jam, they also have body lotions and really high quality face care, like soaps, moisturizer, eye cream, etc. I started using their face soap with tea tree oil and it's helped my breakouts noticeably. My mom really enjoys their bar shampoo, scented like eucalyptus. My partner loves their beard oil and balm! They also have nice combs and stuff. Can't say enough good things about their products. They also value the environment and will give you 10% off if you return the empty bottles of used product - they reuse them! They also have reusable canvas bags as well as paper bags for products. They do a ton of work for the Akron homeless community as well. As for parking - there's minimal street parking available but a lot behind the store you can park in. Can't recommend this store enough- do something nice for your bod - and the community!!

    Great shop, amazing products. Body Butter and Forever Young eye butter are favorites - recently tried the shampoo bar and love it!

    That passion is what also pushed me to create a non-profit called "The Love Truck." The Love Truck assists those who are homeless in Akron, OH.

Finally the girl comes over and says "do you have a question" and I said "I have an appointment". She goes "just so you know once you are 5 mins late we typically move on to the next appointments but since no one is here I will still take you." In this snotty voice. She proceeded to berate me and tell me how I should have called ahead etc so I finally just walked out and left.

    I really don't like leaving negative reviews but decided to cancel my follow up appointment and do…read morethe review. PROS: Clean facility, easy to find, very friendly and almost painless wax CONS: Overcharged for what I asked for and pushy sales tactics. I went in for a bikini wax $40+ and wondered why it was "+" The Brazilian was $65+ but I told Maria I only wanted a basic outer bikini wax. Maria did an excellent job but did a partial Brazilian without asking me first and charged me $55 'because SHE took off more than a regular bikini wax' Sorry but that's where you lost me. Giving me what you wanted vs. what I asked for without consulting me is not good business practice. Then to make it a little more aggravating, she spent 15 minutes pushing sales on me of her crystals and skin care line I wasn't interested in. I wound up buying a very nice crystal paperweight ($30) So a $40 day turned into $100 (I tipped 15%) After thinking about this for a week, I decided to write this review. People go in with a budget and want to get in / out. I understand you have a business to run but overcharging clients, and pushing them to buy things when they just want to go back to work, is a bad way to start out a new client.

    Yelpers my experience was initially good then it began to fall apart at the dishonesty and service…read more Ambiance: Quaint and quiet interior with relaxing decorations. Character: Let me tell you that Maria is amazing!! Her sweet character made my experience with her more exciting. Communication: was greeted with a smile and consistent communication even though she was busy with another client. She made me feel welcome and comfortable as I waited. Experience: I received a chin wax that seemed to take longer than it would at other stores. I remember hearing that waxing the skin (at one time on any side) too often can damage the skin. Well, I was waxed many times before she decided to switch to the tweezers. I was a little worried about that. Then when I went home I still found hairs, which upset me because the service was extremely expensive. Pricing: Before I entered the store I looked up the prices which said the chin wax was $12, I asked for a lip wax as well and expected another $10 or at least $12 to be added to the price. When I went to pay she explained that the bill was $40!!! I asked her why and she said "$12 dollar price is for one pull of the wax strip and done, she spent an hour on me". I was shocked and asked for a discount since I expected the price to be no more than $25. The discounted price was $39.50. When I asked her again about the pricing she told me she did stay after hours to get me in. If I knew she would charge me extra then I would have waited for another day. In conclusion, I'd love to go back to Maria but would need solid pricing info before my service started and a job extremely well done, meaning no hairs found after I arrive home. I never went for waxing services as stated in her google review response.
