After moving from Dallas, I was never located close to a location. My husband just scheduled us for full men's services at the location in Redwood City, close to our home in Belmont.

If you are looking for good waxing, this is the place. If you are a guy and you are looking for good waxing, you really owe it to yourself to book an appointment with Cat.

Sarah did exactly that, and I truly appreciated it. My entire experience was great from start to finish. The booking process was easy, the greeting when I arrived was warm and welcoming, and the service itself was top-tier. I received a full Brazilian wax and had absolutely no irritation, bumps, or discomfort afterward. That's why I happily drive all the way from San Francisco just to see Sarah she is worth every mile.

I honestly think this place DOESN'T even deserve one star! I went there a couple of weeks ago to get permanent eyeliner done and it was the BIGGEST mistake i had ever done to myself! The woman that did it was the manager/owner and she clearly didn't know what the hell she was doing and YES it is painful! The lines were completely uneven and not a straight line. "UGH! I want my money back!!!" I told her but she said to wait a couple of weeks when my eyes heal. I did, they still look awful. Whats the point of getting permanent makeup if you have to put makeup to cover it!? I'm going back today to get my money and making a big stink about it so that everyone in that place could hear. Oh and btw their English SUCKS! read more

I absolutely hate this place. First off, they have the worst possible customer service. Workers look you up and down and speak in their language and laugh. They don't even try to make conversation with you. Secondly, she messed up my nail. When I told her she said I did it and looked at me right in the eyes and yelled at me "you have to be careful" and grabbed my hand so rudely. Then, my father came in because I was taking so long and he was waiting for me in the car. He asked her when are her nails going to be dry how long does it normally take and once again she yelled at him "SHES DRY SIR SHE CAN LEAVE." For someone to upset my dad is crazy because he is the nicest man. DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS PLACE. read more

Brought my teenager for her first time. Never again! They are so rude, have no social skills especially to new customers.

Parking is super easy. Venmo accepted. I have noticed that each nail salon does the powder dip process a little differently. Helen does the clear, color, then clear again (bc I do translucent colors), double dipping each layer, fan drying each layer, and uses a clear gel topcoat at the end (this is the only part cured w UV lamp). Then cuticle oil, a little lotion hand massage and you're on your way. There is no cuticle work included with powder dip manicures.

I called as soon as their business hours started (instead of not showing up) just to communicate that I would unfortunately not be able to arrive. I was very apologetic but received quite an abrupt response, "Well that's a problem they are already there". I completely understand from a business restrictive how frustrating it can be when a client has to cancel an appointment last minute or even perhaps no call no-show.

I just…read morewanted to get my gel nails off and was told it would cost $10 over the phone, but she ended up charging me $20 bc there was some gel art on a few of my nails. I felt pretty scammed bc I only came here versus another place bc other locations charged $15. She also applied some clear nail polish for me which I didn't need, saying she wasn't going to charge me extra and that it'd be good for my nails since they can get painful but then charged me double the quoted amount saying it was hard to take my gel nails off... I mean, would she charge more if your feet stinks or your nails are shaped weird? It's a really poor way to do business to charge a new amount depending on an unfair evaluation of difficulty on her end. I was planning to tip her generously but was thrown off by her last minute scam and didn't want to argue/create a fuss as I had to head out. The place was also extremely hot, no AC or fan and I had to wait 10min beyond my appointment time despite coming early. It's also not that clean or organized. I didn't get mani or pedi here but would really suggest selecting another spot for a quality experience, especially given she has comparable rates as much nicer nail salons in the area. The lack of transparency in pricing was a huge turn off and I'll never be back here. I would strongly not recommend.
