I came in July for eyebrow threading and a facial wax. Unfortunately, my experience was very…read morenegative. During the facial wax, my face became extremely red, painful, and irritated, and I later required professional medical treatment where I was prescribed burn cream. There was no skin assessment or consultation before the service. When I expressed concern about how much my face was burning and how red it had become, I was told to apply cold water and was reassured that my skin was "just red" and not burned. I was also told it could be related to my menstrual cycle, which did not feel like a reasonable explanation. Wax was left on my nose ring and earring, and I had to remove the wax from my nose ring myself at home while my skin was still very inflamed. After filing a complaint with Fairfax County Consumer Affairs, I learned that the individual who performed my wax did not have a cosmetology license at the time of my service. This was a painful and distressing experience, especially for a facial treatment. I'm sharing this so others can be cautious and informed about who they trust with their skin.

Still in disbelief at the interaction I had here! My parents and fiancée were going all over the DMV shopping for clothes for my wedding (we all needed 3-4 outfits!). This was one of our last stops of the day, everyone was exhausted so I quickly ran in to check it out while they waited in the car. We had just gone to Patel Brothers so had 4 empty chai cups in the car that I wanted to throw away, so I took them to throw away before going in the store - but there wasn't a trash can to be seen on the whole strip. So I went in the store and said I didn't see any trash cans outside and asked if I can throw them away. Response - "we don't have any public trash cans". Ok so they're confused, I said that hey, I'm here to shop, I'm not just coming to throw this away. Again they go "we don't have any public trash cans" - I go "I know, I'm not looking for a public trash can, I want to shop and have people in the car coming into shop, I want to throw these away so I can shop" (both my hands were full! How can I look at stuff like that!). They said it AGAIN!!!! Once AGAIN I said HEY I'm here to SHOP, I came all the way here for this store, I want to look around without trash in my hands." This time the lady goes, "oh you can put it right there and pick it up when you go" (gestures to a table). W. T. F. I'm potentially going to spend literally thousands of dollars, and I can't throw my trash away?? It's not like I had spoiled chicken or old shrimp - it was literally empty cups!! I was like no thanks, I won't be shopping here and walked out. Super disappointing as I had planned out 2 full days of shopping going from store to store to find stuff for the 4 of us, and I was excited about going here because I read another review saying they hand a lot of chudas and kaleera - but oh well, I have no tolerance for unnecessary rudeness. Good luck with your empty store! We went to Bridal Bazaar in Dulles Town Center right after - it all worked out because they had amazing stuff and Ayesha was so helpful, nice, and attentive!! If we had wasted time looking at Shringaar's crappy looking stuff we wouldn't have gone to Bridal Bazaar, so to the rude couple at Shringaar - THANK YOU for being such rude jerks, we happily took our business elsewhere and spent $1600 (to start). Your loss! In the words of Julia Robert's - Big Mistake. HUGE!! *You may have seen this review on google reviews, I posted it there and the owner had the audacity to say: "We're a Boutique, not a trash can. Please take your trash somewhere else :)"* WOW. Since I can't respond there I'll do so here - that place was the sorriest excuse for a boutique I've ever seen, but seriously, can you not read? Do you *still* not understand that I WAS THERE TO SHOP AT YOUR "boutique"? I'm a young Indian woman with a giant rock on my finger, what did you think when you saw me? That I'm some hobo who came to this tiny strip mall, to your store to throw away chai cups? Or hey, she's the target customer! Honey please google me, I'm an attorney, was dressed well, and was wearing jewelry worth more than your entire "boutique", I'm not some random homeless person who you wouldn't expect to come in there - I am EXACTLY your target customer. I drove 45 min to get to you TO SHOP. TO SHOP. TO SHOP. Why is this so difficult for you to understand? You must have paid people for the other reviews, with this rude attitude you won't be in business much longer - and with me telling all my connections in the desi community, the south asian bar, AAPI, etc I'll help that process along :) If you're still reading - go ANYWHERE but here!! Bridal Bazaar, Star Fashion, Mohini Boutique, Tanya's Collection - all amazing stores not only with great selection, but NICE PEOPLE. Skip this shthole.

My friends had recently tried a similar experience in Brooklyn New York and they came back raving about it, so we were really excited to go when we realized it was available in our area. The prices are a little high for phone cases, and mirrors, when considering the quality of the items I also didn't like that they charged additional fees for specific charms when I'm fairly certain they cost a few cents to order. that would have been forgivable if the experience was more welcoming, or if they offered more guidance, we were kind of left on our own to figure out how to pipe our glue, whereas, at my friends experience, they had employees who taught different piping techniques and helped you practice. here it was very uncomfortable to stop an employee for assistance. They did not seem very interested in helping us out. The selection of charms was limited as well. There was a lot of Kirby representation, which is cute but not super helpful if you don't care about Kirby. Overall, I am glad I tried, but I do not think I will return for any of their workshops offered.

I did so much research before booking an appointment with Jen because I specifically wanted to get my nipples pierced. I wanted to go to someone with experience and all the reviews online pointed to Jen! getting an appointment was not difficult, you can book online. paperwork must be completed prior to your appointment. when you first arrive, you need to text the number on the door before they let you in. once you are inside, they'll confirm your piercing of choice with you and then Jen pops out of nowhere and takes you into a room! she let me start off with any questions I had and boy, did I have a lot. I had gone down an internet rabbit hole and I knew I needed to speak to an actual professional before the piercing. Jen is a saint with the patience of an angel. she showed me a few photos and helped me figure out if I wanted a vertical or horizontal nipple piercing. she will make sure everything is consensual prior to doing it. I got to pick out my jewelry prior to the piercing and she sanitized the jewelry in the room. now, I knew I went with the right piercer when Jen took her sweet, sweet time marking my nipples. not only did she take her time, she made sure it was even and looked good. I was so impressed with her ability to eyeball a nipple and to get it centered. Jen will mark your nipples a few dozen times, but you want that because the last thing you want is a freaking lopsided piercing so trust the process! when we started the actual process of piercing, she went through how she was going to pierce it and had me take a deep breath to help with the nerves. a nipple piercing seriously hits a little differently than a piercing on your ear. the pain didn't last very long and Jen asked if I needed additional time before piercing my other nipple....which I declined because I really just wanted it done after the piercings, she had me lay there for a bit before sitting up. I know getting up too fast can make some people light headed especially after a piercing and she explained, it can happen especially when the blood flow is redirected after a procedure like so. she went over healing, what to do and what not to do after the piercing and cleaning with me. all in all, Brilliance Piercing is highly recommended. I truly can't thank Jen enough for dealing with my hundreds of questions, making sure my piercings would look good, making sure I was comfortable every step of the way and most of all for just being one of the best professional piercers I have ever encountered. if you're interested in piercing your body in anyway, I cannot recommend Jen enough. she only works two days a week now so for me to snag a 4:50 PM appointment on a Thursday with her was a blessing. also big shout out to Keightley and Elizabeth for their fantastic customer service. they answered all my questions and were super patient with me as well!

I initially came here to get my ears repierced after they closed up during my postpartum period. I…read moreswallowed the high price tag expecting premium service, but their customer service is completely rigid and lacking any basic empathy. Be prepared to spend hundreds of dollars once you factor in the premium jewelry they require you to purchase. Their piercing appointments are scheduled for an hour, yet the actual piercing only takes about 5-10 minutes. A significant portion of the appointment is spent discussing and selling jewelry. The real problem came with the follow-up downsizing appointment. After they emailed me to schedule it, the earliest availability was about a month out. As a new mom coordinating childcare for a baby and making a 40-minute drive through NoVA traffic is not easy. The downsizing appointment itself is only scheduled for 20 minutes, which made what happened next even more frustrating. Unfortunately, there was a lot of traffic on a Saturday and I arrived 12 minutes late. When I got there, a front desk lady met me at the door and refused to let me in. My appointment was canceled on the spot because I hadn't called or texted to say I was running late. I was driving and not checking my phone, which apparently didn't matter. There was no flexibility, no understanding, and no sympathy whatsoever for any circumstances. I was told another client was waiting in their car. So after waiting a month for an appointment, arranging my schedule around a baby, and driving 40 minutes, I left without receiving any service at all. Their policies may be their policies, but customer service matters too. The experience felt cold, inflexible, and completely dismissive. Given how much time is built into their appointments and how heavily they emphasize jewelry sales, I was surprised there was absolutely no flexibility for a customer who was a little late due to traffic. There are plenty of piercing studios out there, and after this experience, I would absolutely not waste time here. The prices are already high, and the lack of consideration for customers and new moms made me feel like a lesser person.
