For example, I showed a specific inspo pic for som simple nail art before coming to the salon and asked if they had anyone who could do this. They said yes. Once I got there, nail technician said no, she could not, and that no one asked her before saying yes to me. It's unfortunate because this is for a special event with photos, and I would have kept trying to find a different place if I knew. I booked weeks out. Unfortunately, I won't be coming back to this salon.

In terms of shaping, my brows are just okay. But I will second other reviews that talk about the…read moregentleness of the threading. Maybe it was because I didn't wait years to do my upper lip (it was 3 months this time), maybe it's the thread they use, but it barely hurt when the aesthetician got rid of my 'stache. I did not leave the chair wiping off tears, nor did I need any aloe or soothing lotion post-threading. As of today, it's $14 to do brows and upper lip. Credit cards accepted.

I only get my eyebrows done and they do a good job with shaping them but still keeping them thick. Nobody wants fine thin brows. Whew! I tried getting other areas threaded but OUCH! I'll stick to just my brows. The $7 for brows is well worth it. They offer other services but I cannot attest to those. The location is quiet outside of the occasional customer who will chitchat in their phones loudly. There is typically music playing. It can be soothing or uptempo, just depends on the day. They normal ladies (can't remember their names but know their faces) all do good work. I had a younger girl one day and she didn't do them to my liking but that was a one time thing.

First of all, I was super excited to try this place. My normal waxing place is a little far from my…read morenew apartment, and Wax Poetic was like 10 minutes away. This was easily the worst Brazilian wax I've ever had. For starters, my esthetician did not leave the room for me to get undressed and get on the table. I have never had that happen to me, and made me uncomfortable from the jump. For context, I've been waxing for about 2 years now. This wax hurt more than when I tried sugaring a few months back, which hurt like noooobody's business. My esthetician pulled almost every strip off in two pulls, which prolonged the pain. I've had estheticians sometimes pull strips in two rips if it's a big one, but never EVERY SINGLE ONE. At the end of the wax, she went back and did a few clean up strips AND tweezed. I was confident that she did a good job, even though she didn't offer a mirror to look at her work. As soon as I got into my car, I lifted my dress just to peek. When I tell you PATCHES! I have NEVER had an esthetician miss so. many. hairs. And not like thin, lighter hairs that the wax can't grab. Thick, coarse hairs that definitely could have and should have been removed. I was so disappointed. Not to mention, this is the most expensive Brazilian I've ever had ($62 BEFORE TIP). Definitely not worth the money, and I won't be back.
