Haven't gotten any other services done, but 100% recommend eyebrow threading! Best place I've been to for it. It's always a fast service even as a walk in. Accurate and as painless as possible too. If you're looking for a new place or even a first ever experience this is the place! 10/10 all the way around.

She is great. She's been my go to while in Albany and I highly recommend her. As per COVID concerns, she is strict about taking precautions and does not put the thread in her mouth while threading. She wraps it around her neck instead. She offers other services as well (waxing is with a roller not with popsicle sticks). But have only gotten my eyebrows threaded with her. I just want to add that I'm a bit obnoxious and picky about places that I go to, but Reema is truly great. She is the owner and the ONLY one there so you know you'll always get a great job done.

The room that the wax process takes place in is clean and comfortable. Her process is quick, yet through. Somehow the way she does the brazilian wax here is the least painful of all other places I've ever been to. Now I'll only be going to her for those! Her site recommends advance booking and that service is usually by appointment evenings (5:30 pm +) Tuesday through Friday, and Saturday 9am - 4pm. The space is above Kristin's Termé on Jay. I'm not quite sure if her business is part of Kristin's or separate. Either way, you enter through Kristin's Terme. If you have an evening appointment, Kristin's may be closed, but Beth will come an unlock the entrance a few minutes before your appointment if she is with another client beforehand. So don't be alarmed if you arrive early and find that the front door is locked. I parked on the street; if you can't find parking, there is additional parking behind Perreca's and Cornell's across the street.

Katerina is hilarious, terrifying, gorgeous, and welcoming, all at once. This woman understands…read morethat making a customer feel comfortable is absolutely necessary before ripping out all the hair in their ladybits. And Kat doesn't let you *not* feel comfortable. You WILL laugh and joke and chat and feel like you made a friend, and leave her business sort of stunned that you got all that plus a fantastic wax. You don't have a choice. Because Kat is THROUGH. I have never had a wax this smooth or this complete. She even denuded my lower belly ("this happy trail is not so happy") and parts of my upper thighs I'm too lazy to always shave ("it's messing up my masterpiece"). She used three different kinds of wax and was intensely efficient without ever making me feel rushed. She also didn't make me feel like a fat glob of rolling and undulating lard deposits, as is so often the case for big girls when we get waxed. She asked me to hold some of my skin tight, but I never felt grotesque or like I didn't belong there. I also had much less irritation than I've had with other wax experiences, and I really like that she didn't tell me to come back in four weeks. Six to eight. That seems so much more rational, manageable. Very refreshing. Bottom line: go see Kat. Your confidence will skyrocket ... but it might be difficult to resist the urge to show everyone how dang smooth you are down there.

I echo everything in Susan's review: Kat is a perfectionist, professional, efficient and SO much fun. Since moving back to NY and trying a few places around CP, I tried Kat in June. I haven't missed an appointment since, and wouldn't go anywhere else! She uses hard and soft wax, will talk you through exactly what you want and makes the whole experience 10/10!!

I can't say enough great things about Penny Williams & her hair salon…read more Penny's been doing my extensions for years now, and I can't imagine letting anyone else even touch my hair! As soon as you walk in you feel the creative ambiance. The atmosphere and decor of the salon is inspiring within itself. Above all, it's the expertise, and genuine passion that makes Penny and her salon so brilliant. I naturally have short, curly and very challenging hair. Penny is literally able to transform my hair with extensions. The way she is able to blend my own hair with extension hair is simply amazing. Penny is a master stylist & it's very apparent in her work. Penny's passion for her business is another reason she's a notch above the rest. She genuinely cares about her clients and their satisfaction. I once got a cut I wasn't thrilled with-Penny took the time to rearrange her schedule and fit me in on one of her days off to ensure I was happy. She goes above and beyond and I can't imagine being with anyone else!

The service was great from everyone who worked there. First I had my massage with Carolyn, and it was hands-down, the best massage of my life. There is nothing I hate more than a massage where you feel more tightness because they didn't work the spot enough or with enough pressure. She was sure to work thoroughly, and it paid off, I felt a million times better than when I walked in. Then I had a facial with MaryAnn, and she was excellent as well! I am a super nerd so I like to understand the process, and MaryAnn explained each step to me, why they use certain things, how it helps, etc. They also told us of several specials they are currently offering, or will be in the coming months, which is great considering how expensive it can be to pamper yourself! A great spa, highly recommended!

She continued to explain I could use the credit for products and services . What a relief of knowing this information . Because , I was so not interested in buying over $500 in products lol . But , after talking to her today . She actually made me want to try coming back to this location to get waxes. Her professionalism and how calm she stayed , while I expressed myself . Was top tier ! I truly appreciate her . So , yea ! If an owner reads this . Taylor needs a raise ! She deserves it , because I can be a sticker sometimes .
