BEWARE!!! Nami Beauty is a joke and a waste of time - HORRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE! Let me start by saying I was a loyal customer of this salon so this is an HONEST review of what happened to me. In short, I got my lashes done on a Friday (with their Thanksgiving promo) at their Manhattan location and by Sunday, I experienced a substantial amount of my extensions falling out.
Naturally as a unsatisfied customer, I reached out to Nami Beauty via their DMs to resolve the situation. They responded quickly and said that I could come in the next day and have them redone for free. I was delighted to hear this and asked if I should return to their Manhattan location and they confirmed yes. Mind you, this is the day before Christmas Eve so traveling to the city during this time of year isn't the most conducive because of the holidays. Nevertheless, to be safe, I arrived 30 minutes before my appointment and when I tried to open the building door - it was LOCKED. I went ahead and called the Manhattan location's front desk, no answer - I called the Queens location and find out there is no one there to service me - WOW! So now I'm on the phone with the Queens location and they asked me if I could come to Queens instead - at 5pm from Manhattan?! No. So they asked if I could come on Christmas Eve - HELL NO!
So, after 15 minutes of back and forth, they said I could choose another date and time. From here, I really should have called it quits and requested a refund but I'm attending a NYE wedding and wanted to have my eyelashes done so I went ahead and book another appointment - when booking this one, I reconfirmed that I wanted the original service of 2D Cat Eye lashes. Would you believe that they tried to make me pay $20 to get the original service I paid for - NO WAY! IM COMING TO GET A REDO SERVICE, WHY WOULD I BE PAYING ANYTHING?! RIDICULOUS!!
Fast forward, now I'm at my current (and LAST) appointment in Queens - thinking this would be a better option/location to come to, WRONG!!! I come in today and was ushered into a back room for almost 2.5 hrs just to open my eyes and see that I have natural looking lashes - WTF - my lashes look like I'm a teenager and I know I'm right because another lash tech came in and said "oh, natural" - what about 2D Cat Eye lashes should look short and natural?!! When I complained about it at the front, they said they can add more lashes to make it look like a cat eye - NO MA'AM - YOU ALL HAVE WASTED TOO MUCH OF MY TIME! SO I LEFT DEEPLY DISAPPOINTED AGAIN!
Upon leaving, I called back because I really couldn't believe this happened and I let them know that at this point I need a refund. After being on hold and a bunch of back and forth with management, they said that they would give me a refund if I came back and TOOK OFF THE LASHES. ARE YOU KIDDING ME?!!! I'm at the train station and you're telling me I need to come back and take off these teenager eyelashes to get a refund? Absolutely not, you wasted my time THREE damn times - I'm not giving you another second and with my eyes closed?! Absolutely not.
So goodbye and good riddance to Nami Beauty - I really loved their work at one point in time but this experience has completely and utterly turned me off. Should you go, please be very intentional about who you choose to do your lashes and know that if you don't like them, you're stuck with them and you're better off handling it with your bank. read more
