Her office is clean, easy to get to but do know street parking is limited. (I parked at Tangram.) I had both my brows and eyeliner done, and although initially the price felt steep, I can say on this side of the procedure, that it was worth it! Now, my morning routines are so much simpler. Getting ready is minimally stressful and wearing less makeup overall is a much healthier choice for my skin. I wake up feeling more confident and less stressed. At night, I can concentrate on self care with make up removal steps gone. Moms of young kids, if you want to simplify your life - this is an excellent way to do it.

Very welcoming and friendly. I forgot to asked her name. She is the only one speak English, she is very accommodating my needs. The facial went smoothly, i snoreeeee thats mean it was good.

I can't stop looking at my nails!…read more I've never done my nails outside before, so I was excited when my friend suggested doing our nails here. The spa is located on the second floor. Make sure to call to secure a spot, as they can easily get booked! The place is cash only, with tax if you Venmo/Zelle. The place was very chill, with the nail techs chatting with each other throughout my experience while they casually work their magic. I got the Gel Manicure ($40). They started off asking me to pick a color from a selection of books. Then the nail tech asked what shape I wanted, and began filing, shaping, and trimming my cuticles. Note to self and other nail newbies that nails need to grow out super long if you want square gel nails, to prevent the gel from touching your skin. The process was overall very relaxing, and fascinating for me to see the amount of care the lady puts into perfecting my nails. The process took around 1 hour 30 minutes, and even with my first time nails, the lady was chill and accommodated with patience, tips, and skill in making the gel manicure work on my short nails. Both my friend and I were very satisfied. My friend had the Regular Manicure ($15) and she noted how they added a finishing nail enamel spray, which other places don't do. Consider Arete for your next girls self care day!

Extremely Disappointed After 2+ Years of Loyalty -- Very Money-Hungry Business That Doesn't Value…read moreCustomers My sister and I have been loyal, consistent clients at this salon for over two years. Sadly, our recent experience has shown that they care more about money than treating their customers with basic respect and professionalism. I sent a deposit to secure an appointment, clearly expecting it to go toward the booking. At no point did I say it was a tip. The owner had previously canceled on me last minute, and I was understanding. Instead of asking for a refund, I chose to reschedule. When rescheduling, I was told a time with no clarification of AM or PM. Since I asked for the earliest slot, I assumed AM. I traveled from Brooklyn to Queens early in the morning and waited 45 minutes without a single response to my texts or calls. Hours later, I was finally told to come back. Frustrated but still loyal, I canceled other plans and returned--only to be offered a free manicure to make up for the mix-up. That day, my Uber costs alone were over $100--more than the cost of the service. Given all the inconvenience, I chose not to leave a tip, which is well within my rights as tipping is optional. I usually always tip, but not after that experience. Later, I was refused service completely--because I wanted to apply the deposit I had already sent toward a new appointment rather than let them keep it as a tip. Denying a loyal customer over something so small and unjustified is beyond unprofessional. This business lost two long-time clients over a situation that could've been resolved with basic communication and decency. If you value your time, money, and being treated with respect--go elsewhere And I'm happy you responded the way you did because you only proved my point more of how viewed your customers as optional and I wasn't valued as a customer after 2 years of loyalty and consistent tipping !

I did not book through a link. She messaged me to confirm 48 hours in advance. I asked her if she by chance had anything later and she said no. Instead she canceled my appointment. I am extremely upset that she just canceled it instead of asking me if I needed to cancel. I was curious if she had anything later but I did not tell her I could not make it. Immediately when I saw the cancellation text I asked her to reinstate it and told her I will let her know if I needed to cancel before the 24 hour mark. She refused. She told me I have to rebook via a link when she is the one who booked the appointment through text last time. If she did not want it booked via the link she could have said no to begin with. Very very rude that she canceled my appointment when I never asked her too. last time she canceled on me because of the snow when she said l've canceled in the past. I asked her when I canceled and got no response. Very unprofessional.

This…read morebeauty spa is located on Union Street on the second floor of one of the buildings so it might be a bit difficult to find the first time going there. I like that the doors are locked and you must be buzzed in to enter. You can either ring the doorbell or knock the door. There is a sofa waiting area in case all the rooms are occupied and a restroom with a bunch of general beauty supplies. There are 4 rooms, 2 larger rooms with 2 beds each and 2 smaller rooms with 1 bed each. The place offers a wide variety of services from facial, to massage, to microblading. Even for facials, there are so many different packages! I like the various machines they have to suit your needs. I have tried micro dermabrasion, oyxgenation, an infrared light machine, and a depuffing cold machine. I also like the icy refreshing mask they put at the end for about 20 minutes along with a heated shoulder/neck pad which allows me to relax and take a nap. Most of all, I like how the staff truly wants to help you look your best and not just sell you their products and packages. The first time I was helped by Amy who was very friendly and I felt was not pushy at all. As a result, I purchased one of their packages which includes 10 facials and continued to return. Since then, I've been serviced by Linda who is also amazing! At the end of the facial, they usually pour you a cup of water to keep you hydrated! And they have a little snack bar in case you're hungry as well as mints. Very cute and safe environment! Highly recommend!

[QUICK STATS]…read more Business: Asian Lash Studio Service: Courteous and Skilled Staff Interior: Spotless and Tidy, with Soft Holiday-Ambient Music Price: $$ Reasonably Priced for a Luxury Beauty Service [REVIEW] Up on the third floor in the bustling center of Flushing is a Lash Studio like no other. A simple, yet intimate atmosphere paired with a clean layout and soft lighting awaits you in this cozy beauty parlor. This business also offers a comprehensive website for aftercare and other inquiries, including a detailed price list! I scheduled my appointment for 10am this past Monday, and though I had train traffic, my technician Lia was very understanding as I kept her updated about my arrival. After climbing up to the third floor, I was greeted with a smile and gently ushered to her workspace. Though I wish there was a place to hang my coat, she allowed me to take my time to settle in before we began. Lia's consultation with me was concise and informative, explaining how the process would work, easing my nerves as she was aware it was my first time. The studio itself We settled on a natural finish, with the largest lash being 12mm. There isn't much to say about the process itself, as I ended up falling asleep halfway through the hour! I was able to listen to a podcast off my phone without any trouble, and even caught some of the alluring lullabies that play inside the studio. There was little to no pinching at all, marking up the reputation of the studio to the upmost expertise and quality of service. The session was over before I knew it (definite A+ on the speed) and Lia provided a cute mirror and handheld fan to view her work. The lashes were placed perfectly, and provided beautiful, yet subtle volume to my natural eyes to accentuate their look. No signs of redness or stinging at all: just a gorgeous, luxurious look. From this experience, I know what beauty sleep means now-- especially if I wake up looking prettier with a new set of lashes!
