Ahhhh yes...I decided to once again, begin waxing my delicate lady parts. I used to do it years ago…read moreat Trim, when I lived in Humboldt Park. However, when I moved south I didn't feel like finding a new person so I broke out the trusty Venus. Yeah, she cool and errythang, but the daily upkeep and prickly, porcupine aftermath was just annoying. So I began my search. After googling Black-owned waxing salons, my search turned up Queen Noir. Location perfect and reviews even better, so I signed up. Was I nervous when I walked in? Yep. Did I have flashbacks to the time my delicate lady parts got scorched from an overly-aggressive waxer? Hellz yeah! But I put my big girl panties on, pimped into the waxing room, hopped on the table and "butterflied". My memories of being waxed in the past overtook me, so with each snatch of the cloth, I braced for the worst...but in all actuality, it really wasn't that bad. Nikki was patient, yet diligent and had me smoother than a baby's tush. Mama was pleased and Mama will be back. Gold star for Queen Noir!

The initial experience was quite positive, and I developed a good rapport with my esthetician after…read moremy first waxing session. However, the situation became less satisfactory when scheduled appointments were disrupted, and I was informed that my esthetician was unavailable, with the suggestion to book with another. Waxing is a very personal and intimate service, and many clients prefer to maintain consistency with their esthetician rather than having a new person for such private procedures. The quality of service provided by Denae was excellent, and I was genuinely disappointed to learn of her departure. Unfortunately, no forwarding contact information was provided, and I was simply told that other estheticians were available.

Threading NIGHTMARE:…read more Pros: Front desk staff was incredibly friendly and welcoming, and it was easy to make a same-day appointment. The actual conversation made during threading was pleasant and nice. Cons: I paid for full-face threading, and when I got home I realized that the person absolutely mangled my face. I have multiple bleeding, open wounds, and cuts on my face. I did not have acne, I have never had accutane, and I have never in my life had a reaction like this to threading. Redness? Puffiness? Totally normal and not cause for concern. Open cuts are another thing. I did not notice at the moment of threading because I was only told to look at my brows, and the appointment was already running late, so I was trying to make it to my next thing on time. In addition to horrible open cuts which I will need to watch for infection and pray will not leave scars...multiple areas of my face still had patchy bits of hair left. So, not only did I pay $50 for the privilege of having my skin cut open by someone....there was also hair left? If you visit, do NOT ask for threading, this is either inexperience or incompetence. Save yourself the embarrassment of walking around like this. I feel like a fool for walking out all smiling and happy because she didn't say ANYTHING about it, and I didn't notice until I got in the uber to leave and looked at myself with my phone camera.

Came here for a lash lift and tint and a brow lamination and tint about 5 weeks ago! Waited to…read morereview because I wanted to give honest results! The place is huge and clean! Staff is very friendly! The girl who did my services was lovely! I like the brow lamination a lot. The tint was wiped off a second after putting it on for my brows and I never noticed a different with the tint. The brow lamination lasted about 3-4 weeks. I wish the tint showed up, maybe it needs to be on more than 1 second, although she did say if left on longer it would be too dark but I did not notice a difference. For the lash lift I am upset about this service. My lashes were pretty crooked/all over the place. The service also made a lot of my lashes fall out. I really wanted to love this. I am open to trying again, I've seen great results on other people. Maybe I just need to try a different technician.

Writing this because the waxers are fantastic however...I have officially left after being a…read morecustomer loyally since last July. I have only had to cancel once after a confirmed flu test. Even when I called then I was asked if I wanted to mask up and come in and I little taken aback at the staff and management's willingness to risk safety. I was then told well do you want to move it to later and my response was, "I will still have the flu later." They charged me but said it would be credited at my next appointment and it was. Fast forward. I have a birthday trip coming up and I originally booked my appointment for Wednesday morning but then changed it to Tuesday evening at 8:30. My car fob died and my car is push to start. I called them immediately and said I could uber but it would get me there five minutes after the grace period. They said I was the last appointment of the day so they wouldn't allow even though they're open til 9 and I would have made it by 8:45. I ask if I can come at 9 as they had complete open avails for Wednesday from 9 to 3 PM.. I was told no. I would be charged for tonight and then again the next day. I say this is ridiculous as I am a regular, this is out of my control and you've had no appointments all night except for me. I did not cost the business money. You are supposed to stay open til 9 and I have offered two solutions. I am not going to pay 150 for a wax because i am being double charged. So, I book elsewhere. This morning at 9 AM, I get a call saying they will grant me a one time courtesy to walk in between 9:30 and 4:00 as they have lots of openings. I state that I said this yesterday and they told me that they are enforcing policy and that yesterday I was told I could not make another appointment and this is different as it is a walk in. I said it isn't given that there's no one on the books. The point is, I could've been accommodated. I told them I booked elsewhere and I wont be back. Marking me as a no-show when I called ahead to explain what was going on is honestly a little crazy to me. They are so callous and cold. The front desk can be very non-chalant and rude. Happy to receive my services elsewhere moving forward. Update - they have responded saying this has happened multiple times. It literally has not. It happened one time when I had the flu. I had a doc appointment the same day and wanted to be proactive. At the end of the day your staff and this response is absolutely why I will not be coming back to your awful customer service. So I guess we are both fortunate and blessed. Calling me to offer an appointment I could have gotten yesterday and not allowing me to arrive three to five minutes after the grace period for a situation beyond my control is nuts. You close at 9. I would have been done by then. This establishment never needs to worry about me. Terrible management. Terrible staff. My favorite waver left and I will be following her regardless. She said she hated working here and your waxers consistently complain about how you make them uncomfortable and that these rules are unnecessary as you all do not stay booked - ie - all time slots open today from 9 to 3. Your turn over is high and it will continue to be because the establishment is run by raggedy, unkind people.

O.M.L. Where do I begin!?…read more.. Well, I used to go to Cortiva in the loop for my deep tissue massages, years ago. Before Covid, I was looking to hopefully return, but learned the masseuses I liked were no longer there :-(. So that killed those plans. Then Covid hit and everything hit the fan. As things started to turn around I started looking for places closer to home. Starting here @Yelp then other engines. I came across Holistic via Google Maps, which had reviews attached. I loved that it is local spot, nice and quaint and virtually 5 to 10 minutes door to door. After going on-line to see services rendered and cost, everything was good. I made an appointment for mid week in the early afternoon. I arrived and the place is pretty nondescript and hidden right off the corner, right in the neighborhood!. It was great... There were a ton of little squirrels running around, a cart vendor was selling his goods, etc,. VERY quiet block/area in the neighbor. Ana met the at the door. I filled out all of the paperwork and proceeded with a 60 min. Sports Massage. She asked all the right questions, (where would I like her to concentrate on, areas not to touch, had I had any procedures done recently, etc,.). She was/is VERY professional and made me feel at home. We talked almost thru the entire massage. She always checked on the pressure used, etc,. She HIT EACH AND EVERY SPOT, NOOK AND CRANNY, CREVIS, MUSCLE, LIGAMENT, ETC. O.M.L.!!!!!!!!......... Although I was a little sore, which said I would be, the massage was ABSOUTELY WONDERFUL. I think I took it well especially; not having a massage in many years!!!... It was a definite treat and I told her I will be back and will be signing my wife up!!!.... Word-Up! WOW...... Gone........ -JV
