I was a bit skeptical about trying a new eyebrow place from fear of my eyebrows being butchered but…read moreI had to find a new place to go to in Ithaca. I found this place through yelp and the accolades are well deserved. The environment is so comfortable and welcoming and service is very fast. I didn't get her name but the lady who does the eyebrows here is very personable and lovely to talk to. She did an amazing job with my eyebrows and was very detail oriented with my eyebrows. I felt very special as a customer because of how careful she was with my eyebrows. This will definitely be my new go-to place for eyebrows from now on!

The first time I went the business was not open though I arrived during business hours according to Yelp. I had arrived on the Hindu holiday Karva Chauth. You might want to call ahead before you come, though keep in mind she probably has to leave a customer in order to answer the phone. Also, she has a limited range of conversational English, just a heads up. The venue sits across from Victoria's Secret as a standalone booth with one Esthetician, presumably the (co-)owner, attending to all customers. When I arrived I was the fourth customer on line, and had to wait approximaty 30 mintues, which may be fatiguing for some; her partner was kind to offer me their only seat. The Ithaca Mall does not offer free Wifi but my cellular signal was sufficient while I waited. Once seated I did Not feel that service was rushed. After an initial pass the Esthetician spent some time touching up both my brows. She'll hand you a mirror before you leave and you can point to anything you think was overlooked which you might wanted addressed. Cash is the preferred method of payment but I only had my debit card. I input my credit card number, expiration, CRV, and zip into the SquareUp App on her phone myself. There was the option to leave a tip within the app and choice between receiving receipt by text or email (my number automatically appeared once my card information was entered). Shortly thereafter I received a text containing a link to view my receipt. From the receipt you have the further option to rate your service experience. Great service and kind demur, I'll be back.

Audia is the owner of Skinique and she is one of the most down to earth, kindest, and funniest…read moreestheticians I've ever gotten waxed from. She truly enjoys her work and is easy to talk to. The "wax" she uses is soy-based and does not contain wax, making it a more natural and gentle alternative to traditional waxing. I've gotten my brows done here numerous times and loved the results. I especially recommend Skinique to someone new to getting waxed because Audia is guaranteed to make it a pleasant experience with her friendliness.

I called Audia to book an appointment, and she was able to squeeze me in that day, which was great! The process was quick and painless--her technique feels gentler than other places I've visited. The only downside of my visit was that Audia somehow got the "wax" into my hair, which was a bit of a sticky mess. I was a little surprised since my experience there went really well--perhaps this was just a one time mistake? Thankfully, the "wax" came out in the shower, but I was a little disappointed about that. I'm still deciding about whether or not I'll go back.

To make matters worse no one seem to have the ability to get them back under control. When I look at social media I find myself focusing on beautifully sculpted eyebrows and longing for the same. I literally fell into Beauty Box at 317 N Meadow St the other day and whoosh my eyebrow issues were expertly taken away. My brows have NEVER looked this good. Laura spent more time focusing on each hair and the shape of my brows than any previous technician. If you want great brows or great anything Beauty Box is the place to go for expert care, attention and advice. Whew! One last thing in my life to worry about managing.

Beware. This salon uses counterfeit devices. I bought a package of Emsculpt treatments (advertised…read moreas "Emsculpt") but the machine did not look or feel like an Emsculpt treatment and left me with a burn. When I inquired into the authenticity of the machine, I was told it was actually different, cheaper product from a different manufacturer. The owner, Natalie, was aggressive, rude, mocking, and insisted she had a right to use a copyrighted name for a fake product (!). This is just ridiculous: if I bought a Chanel handbag and found out it was a fake, I would have the right to return it. If I went to a pharmacy and the pharmacist had swapped out Tylenol for Advil, they would be horrified and apologetic. The owner broke multiple laws, including theft of intellectual property and false advertising. She is currently being investigated by the state and the owners of Emsculpt. I have friends who work in the aesthetics industry and they always say do your research before choosing a med spa. These machines can really hurt you and it's clear that Natalie does not care about safety or consumer satisfaction. She is a dangerous. and irresponsible liar. The salon is also dirty and dingy looking. (On a positive note, the technician Drea was great, professional, and friendly. I've encountered her at other salons and hope she finds employment elsewhere. If Natalie treats her customers so badly, I can only imagine how poorly she must treat her employees).

Do not get laser hair removal here, it is both over priced and needlessly painful. Previously back…read morehome I was getting lasering on my face and neck for $40 per treatment. There was slight to no pain, it was over in 1-2 mins and any inflammation disappeared by the end of the day. It was gorgeous, clean, and knowledgeable while this looked like somewhere I'd get a regretful back tattoo. On the topic of tattoos, I have plenty, on my arms, back, collar bone, and not a single one of those compared to the pain I felt here. As a matter of fact even breaking my leg or toe and walking / running on them was more bearable than this. The only pain worse than this was when my appendix ruptured. Regardless I sucked it up, and dealt with the pain (and smell of my burned face which is a uniquely awful and disgusting smell btw). There was apparently no way to turn down the Candella settings or she simply didn't care. When I finished there was definitely a moment of shock on her face, perhaps at the fact that I looked like I'd had acid poured on my skin. She sprayed some sunscreen on (which burned and also not a single spray spf is FDA approved in the United States because they mostly don't offer full or completely needed spf coverage). I paid and was sent on my merry way. It cost $215.00 not including tip... $215.00 for the worst pain imaginable. The best part, is this is simply the precursor to the fact that now 5 days later my face is STILL erupting in red, swollen cystic acne and burns, with no signs of slowing down. I'm Asian, so I also know my skin if it does ever heal will be covered in dark marks / spots (post inflammatory hyper pigmentation) that I will then have to spend $100's-$1000's of dollars to get rid of either through more treatments OR topical products. Every other Derm and Esthi I have talked to / facetimed to show the now lunar landscape that is my face has an audible gasp and cringe. I used to have good skin, my job involves me being on camera, and now my face is so screwed up I have barely left my house in 5 days, and am embarrassed to be around any other human being. As someone who had previously gotten FIVE rounds of laser and never had a problem, this is a particularly awful experience, and now I am forced to deal with intense pain, and semi-permanent scarring. Do Not Get Laser here, I promise you the pain is not worth it, at all. PS: I'd just like to throw in stop trying to sell people the coffee scrub too, the claims made about it on the website aren't even scientifically or biologically possible... No activated charcoal does not "make your pores smaller" (that's actually physically impossible!) nor does it "suck out dirt or toxins" re: There is "little to no" evidence to substantiate the claims skincare companies are making, according to a July 2019 article by researchers at the University of Miami. Beyond that, they write, the use of activated charcoal in skincare products is unregulated. Because these products don't claim to treat or cure a diagnosable medical condition, the FDA isn't forced to regulate what goes in them or how else they advertise themselves. - https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0738081X19301361 Further claiming it can help cellulite is also a BS claim, the only scientifically proven procedures involve lasers, liposuctions, or cryofreezing application. "No over-the-counter remedy has been shown to be effective in treating cellulite. That includes creams marketed to cure cellulite that have ingredients such as caffeine, antioxidants and herbal supplements," -- Dr. Dawn Davis, Dermatology, Mayo Clinic, Rochester, Minnesota Maybe I'm the idiot for not doing my due diligence, and reading reviews vs seeing a website chockfull of pseudo science, but either way I cannot express emphatically enough how horrible this experience has been. If you have scars (which if you go here you most likely will) a scrub wont fix your face, at least not the coffee scrub in a plastic bag. Alpha Hydroxy, Beta Hydroxy, or Poly Hydroxy acids, Vitamin C, or topical Retinoids are your best bet.
