    I was in serious need of a self-care day and wanted to get my nails and brows done before an upcoming wedding. I kept seeing rave reviews about Emma's work, so I decided to book with her and now I totally get the hype! She's incredibly talented and pays such close attention to detail, making sure the shape and size were absolutely perfect. She recommended Gel-X for my nails, and I'm officially obsessed! They feel so lightweight and natural. I'm so glad I skipped the acrylics. I showed her an inspiration photo, and she nailed it (pun fully intended). I also had my brows waxed by Emily, and she did an amazing job keeping my natural shape while cleaning everything up beautifully. The whole space has great energy with a cute flower wall and classic throwback tunes playing in the background. The vibes are truly vibing! I'll definitely be coming back as a regular.

    I walked in and immediately I was greeted, asked to sign in, and sat. I came in for a fill. It was quick and painless and relaxing. Nicole Vu was my tech and she's amazing! I also think it was affordable, but maybe because I'm so used to Seattle prices. I attached a picture and it was $60 :)

    i called in the morning to try and get a last minute appointment, and they were able to accommodate me within the hour! when i got there they were able to take me immediately, and sam did a great job! i got a gel polish change on most of my nails, and gel x extensions on two that were broken. i was super happy with the shaping, as a spent a LONG time researching salons in the area with evidence of good nail shaping i liked. i was in and out in 30ish minutes, and it was super reasonably priced. for the polish change and gel x i paid $38! the salon itself is cute, and i liked how the manicure and pedicure areas were spaced out!

    I rly enjoyed my time here! They pay rly close attention to detail and make sure u feel comfortable speaking up if anything is not to your liking. Fortunately, they gave me no reason to speak up

    I would say if the ladies in the business are not comfortable waxing guys…read more Then they should take it of their menu I went to get my legs waxed and although it was pretty painless and went smooth and inside of my thighs are hairy af and when I asked if she could do it she said I don't feel comfortable going so deep knowing that they do offer men's bikini waxing So overall I wouldn't recommend this to any guy Funny part is I'm gay So yeah Half ass job and female leg waxing is 78 where men's is 90 so if I'm paying extra money why do I have extra hair left !!!!!!!

    I am in DC temporarily for cancer treatment so I wanted to find a place to get my lashes done…read morebecause it's the one (vain) thing that makes me feel better right now. This place got good reviews so I booked an appointment at the Eastern Market location since it's near the place I'm staying. The night prior, they called and asked if I'd be willing to go to the Dupont Circle location instead so that the technician could fit in more appointments. It was annoying, but not a huge deal. I was getting lash removal & a new set of classic/hybrid lashes. I've been getting eyelash extensions for 13 years and this is by far the worst experience I've ever had. They were thin, whispy, pre-made fans that were poorly glued onto only some of my lashes. They started falling off almost immediately, and there were visible white clumps of glue that a friend pointed out because she thought I had crumbs on my eyes. One week later when I went to another eyelash studio, they couldn't even tell I had any extensions on until they put me under the lights. I would've been better off just curling my own lashes & using mascara because mine are thicker & longer than whatever they used. I've never had such poor quality.

    this place is very dependent on the threader(is that what they are called?) i like this location…read morebecause of its proximity and plenty of free parking nearby, some of the threaders(yeah im just gonna keep using that term) are good, but some are exquisitely bad. the one today was in the latter category. i have full, thick brows and they look good even when they are NOT threaded(hey i tried to be humble, but ...it...didnt..work..). on occasion, i will get them threaded for a more refined look. the threader today did not do that. one of my brows got hair removed excessively and looked uneven by comparison and there were no sharp lines. i did point this out to the threader(who willl remain nameless) who insisted everything was good. she also applied lotion to my brows without asking me first, which is made my face all itchy and i washed it off immediately. i usually get an astringent like witch hazel, which P.E. has too but the threader usually will ask me first what I want. gee, gosh damn , is that so hard? anyway, once a threader messes up, i do NOT want them to fix it, bc that usually makes it worse...way worse. so i will have to get creative with my pencil and mascara brush. and honestly, im very irritated. im putting my pic from today and one from another salon where i got my brows done before.picture is worth a thousand brows after all. btw, i PREFER the P.E. in tysons corner mall, i have NEVER had any issues there.

    I love love love this place. I've been going to this place to get my lashes done for almost three…read moreyears. I get the yumi keratin lash lift done every 10-12 weeks. I use to get them done every 8 weeks, but now that my lashes are longer I noticed they can last up to 10-12 weeks. I also noticed my lashes got so much longer after I was doing these lifts for a year. Semra is amazing. She's always gentle with my lashes and takes amazing care to make sure they look good. I always leave satisfied with my lashes. My eyes are usually very sensitive as well. When I use to get regular lash lifts, my eyes would get irritated. But with the yumi lash lifts, my eyes aren't irritated. I think the chemicals are more gentle than regular lash lifts. Also I love the natural look of these lashes. They're so curly and long and just naturally pretty. I also got my brows done twice here. I usually don't get my brows done because I don't really care about my brows as much as I do my lashes lol, but Semra made my brows look really nice as well. I was impressed by how different I look with them shaped better. I will think about doing my brows more often here

    TL;DR (long version in the photos)--I never write reviews of businesses, let alone small businesses…read morebut I am hoping that doing this will save someone else what I went through. I visited Semra's studio twice and she gave me a severe allergic reaction (Google PPD allergic reaction and HD Brows and BrowSculpt) that left me with severe hives on my face and extreme swelling of the eyes/ face for which I had to see three doctors and had to use six separate medications. It took me over a month to fully recover (I visited her salon Sept. 17, and am only now fully recovered as of late Oct.). After I told her about it, the only apology she gave me was "sorry to hear about it :(" I asked her for a refund and she refused, not even refunding me the tip or the cost of the service that caused the allergic reaction. On top of that, when I sent her the pictures, her reaction most generously could be understood as ignorance about a very common allergy that occurs due to the chemicals she uses in the line of work she's been in for ~30 years and at worst as accusing me of lying. She refused to take any accountability even when her actions seriously harmed a customer. I'll let you draw whatever conclusions you believe appropriate from my experience.
