I have been going to Elena for waxing for 5 years and was thrilled that she was starting her own…read morebusiness. Prior to moving to Rochester I had many questionable bikini waxes and never found someone I really trusted who not only made me feel comfortable but did a fantastic job. After going to Elena I knew I would never need to experiment again. Her new studio is cozy and comfortable. I have been there both for waxing and for a hydradermabrasion facial which was delightful and such a bargain compared to what you'd pay in a major city or at a big salon. I will definitely be making her facials a regular part of my beauty routine. If you're looking to treat yourself, improve your beauty routine, or get any sort of waxing done, you seriously won't find a better option! I can't recommend Elena highly enough! Love the ease of the online appointment scheduling as an added bonus.

I vowed to never let anyone thread my eyebrows anymore after 1 visit here. I've had my eyebrows…read morethreaded for the past 7 years and this one was probably the worst. I don't live in Rochester, MN but was due for a cleaning. There was a woman who sat behind the counter on the phone. She approached the girl who was next up but that girl requested for another woman. So, that woman behind the counter came towards me. I specifically told her not to thread my eyebrows a certain way but she didn't seem to listen. My eyebrows turned out exactly what I told her not to do. I told her how I wanted it fixed. She attempted to fix it then handed me the mirror. My eyebrows were very thin and uneven! It looked like two different eyebrows on my face. I wanted to cry but told her I will just pay for it and fix it at home. Be cautious. It is true. Service is inconsistent. I wouldn't do it unless you know who will be threading your eyebrows.

I stopped in here to get my eyebrows threaded. There wasn't a wait circa 8:15 pm on a Tuesday. The…read morelady that did my eyebrows was friendly but was asking a lot of questions .. very chatty gal. I asked just for a simple clean-up and not to make them too thin. The shape turned out really nice but more thin than I would have liked. This is a decent place if you need a quick fix.

So this review is for the place specifically as a hair salon. Haven't had anything else done there…read moreso can't comment on nails etc. But wow - what a setup! First off, I love the layout. There's a bar area where you can drink a cup of coffee (thank you Lord) while you get foiled, with magazines and a TV, and it's open and warm into the rest of the salon. Then the decor is great too, modern but colorful and interesting. Great for getting those creative juices flowing during your biannual hair-must-change-drastically crisis! Which brings me to the true gem of this place. Erica. She is actually an artist with hair and she'll be straight up with you about what ideas are good ideas and what ideas are not so good. I've pulled out pictures of the general idea I've had, and she's talked through with me what we can do and what to expect - and if she can't do an excellent job with it, she won't. Full stop. I've shown for a 2h appointment before with an idea that would take 2 at a rush and 3 to be perfect, and she actually had me reschedule (just did a quick cut) so she could give it the time and attention it would need. The colors look GREAT. I stay, if obviously not "natural," at least within the range of natural for the purposes of professionalism at my job, and she manages to bring out all the highs and lows and depths I never knew my relatively thin hair could achieve!! I've sent several friends and coworkers her way which is the ultimate positive review. You want a color whiz, head to Erica. She'll deliver, and keep you relaxed and engaged while she does it!

I was searching around for a brow artist for microblading a friend shared this company's portfolio…read morewith me as a buyer beware for local people. Boy am I glad she did. It was horrible to the point it needs to be public. In fact at first, I thought it was a joke and was photoshopped an could not possibly be that bad. The online portfolio for this company is embarassing. Lack of experience, terrible attention to detail and a lack of knowledge in the tattooing industry by a company that has changed business names twice. That's a red flag. Look at references and portfolios before permanent change are made to your face. Its not reversible. After posting an online review about this company i was threatened by an attorney claiming the company owner wants to sue me for defamation. Reviews are protected under Free Speech laws so I left it up. They clearly do not want their shoddy work being made public. Bad ownership, bad work, bad reputation. STAY AWAY.

Came for a prenatal massage. Left very disappointed. I've had prenatal massages in the past and…read morethis one was the most expensive and the most lackluster. I'm an OBGYN and from their services today you can tell they don't accommodate pregnant women often. 2 stars are because everyone was nice. I just don't think they're trained in depth to serve the needs of pregnant women (ie I was told they couldn't do a foot scrub because it's too "vigorous" and I reported edema.) that's medically not a thing. I also feel my massage therapist was very dainty and soft. I wanted more of a lymphatic style massage to help relieve foot, ankle, and lower leg edema which we discussed at the start. I feel like time was wasted doing ineffective things (ie holding pressure on my neck for several minutes with no movement.) Pregnancy pillow was also extremely uncomfortable. I wasn't asked at all how the pressure was (which is odd since that's a basic of any massage.) I was looking for a bells and whistles massage. Despite their advertising, this was extremely basic (not even a hot towel on the feet or face was used.) Leaving disappointed and $160 (for a 70 min massage) in the hole with no relief.

This was hands down one of the best massages I've ever had! Jenn did an absolutely amazing job. I…read morehighly Recommend using the hot Stones. I left a message and they immediately called me back.
