Love coming here. Once you find a technician you like, just stick with them. They're about the same…read morein cost as other salons. Peaceful environment even though it's in the city.

I read some good reviews about this place so I decided to check them out but unfortunately my…read moreexperience was the total opposite. It's small & clean in a nice looking neighborhood. I went in for a basic mani & French pedi. Now for those that get French - we know it's a specialized service (meaning they upcharge for it). A specialized service needs a specialist. While the nail tech was polite and tried her best, you could tell that wasn't her speciality and with the language barrier it was hard communicating exactly what was needed. Plus I think techs today put more effort into those that get gel/acrylic etc over basic/natural which is disappointing. She asked me if I wanted my toes cut down (I said yes) but she ended up filing them so they were still long. The towels are pretty dingy and they dry your feet with the same towel they work on, cuticle clean up was great but the leg massage was way too much pressure. I asked for bubble bath nail color but they gave me a purple equivalent & I had to ask for a 2nd coat. The white lines aren't crispy, & while I appreciate her trying to emulate the look I had when I came in, I think it would've been better if she just did her own thing. The manicure was standard, she skipped a few nails and had to go back. I asked for square square all around (hands & feet) but ended up with round square. Again, she was sweet & polite but for $78 - it wasn't worth the experience, especially not the French because my toe nails are still long so you can barely see the white tips and the color gives more of a purple than pink

I have been coming to Doan to get my hair done for about 3 years now and I am always so happy with…read moreher work. I get a cut/highlights and I am always so impressed by her coloring work. Before I went to Doan, I went to some high-end salon and spent about 1/3 of my paycheck for okay results. I decided to try Doan in search of a more affordable way to keep up with my blonde highlight habit, and I am so happy I found her. The salon itself is lovely and I am always impressed by how much Doan gets done in a day. She is a one woman powerhouse. My blonde hair is healthy and stylish in Doan's hands.

Doan is super nice and i enjoyed having her bleach my hair for me. I came in asking for grey…read morehighlights and despite her bleaching my hair 2x it came out more of an ashy brown (which I was fine with). She did a great job on the bleaching and it's not damaged at all. The main gripe I have is that the dye she put on top washed out after one wash with purple shampoo, something that had never happened to me before when I had gotten my hair balayaged elsewhere in the past (nor when I'd gotten it toned every two months). She'd recommended using overtone conditioner--unfortunately, the silver overtone conditioner did nothing except give my hair a green twinge (looks a lot like hay currently.) When I panicked and told Doan about this she was kind and offered me useful advice--clarifying shampoo, which I hadn't thought about--and relayed the brand of dye she used so I wouldn't have an alternative salon use it on me in the future. Sadly, only two weeks after getting my hair done I'm going to have to go somewhere else to get it fixed, hence the three stars. :(

Well Family and Friends, Thea and I did it again. Picked up…read moreour favorite Croissants from our favorite Bakery and now we are living our best lives sitting in these incredible massage chairs and letting these highly skilled professionals do their thing sipping on decaf coffee and green tea. Oh what a fantabulous feeling. Had my hands treated with Pariphin wax and tried gel nail polish for the first time. Now we professionals women are ready to face our new normal world.

I am changing my rating from 5 stars to 1 because of a service I just recently received that I now…read morehave to seek medical attention for. On 8/1 I received an eyebrow wax and was happy afterwards only to discover on 8/3 that I had a rash around the eyes and the eyelids. BOTH OF MY EYES!!! I was also burnt that left a scar that I can actually deal with but the rash not too much. I immediately notified the owner, she apologized, she shared with me that this happened to another customer earlier in the day, and to put Neosporin on it. She also shared with me that she saw the bumps starting to appear but failed to tell me until I brought it to her attention 2 days later. Luckily I had both Neosporin and Benadryl handy and started to apply the cream. Now on 8/5 and 8/6 I have woken up to swollen eyes!!! I called her again and asked if she using something new, what did she do different, etc. Of course there is a culture and language barrier that is difficult beyond words; however I am explaining to Christine what she did that day at time of service. She began to draw my eyebrow with a pencil, and then proceeded to wax and tweeze the brow. When she was done, I looked at the good job she did, paid and left. Only to discover this horrific rash and swelling on my face. I called on 8/6 to notify her once again of my concerns and she further explains that it has happened to her as well when she waxes her brows. Clearly this wax is bad, contaminated, or the like and this is a huge problem. The reason that I am going above and beyond is to avoid this happening to anyone else. My face is irritated and I cannot scratch it at all! I am highly upset, frustrated, annoyed, and now inconvenience for seeking attention to correct her negligence. What is sad is that I have been going to this place for 8+ years when she began in the building above her. I actually stopped getting my nails done here because after 3 days my nails are chipped and broken. I pass by too many nail salons that are much cheaper and efficient to have this done to me. So I continued to get my brows done here since I was always satisfied with that service. Christine will never have to worry about me coming back here ever again. The power of the internet and crowd sourcing will play a part when people begin to read many outlets of this unfortunate moment. After visiting urgent care I learned that this reaction is a STAPH INFECTION!! Now I'm on antibiotics until it clears. I wish her and her business the best but she will never receive a penny of my money again!
