I had a Lash Lift and Tint treatment, and my experience was underwhelming. The appointment felt rushed from the start. Update: My lashes weren't washed beforehand with water, but Ashley mentioned they were cleaned with a solution instead. I personally prefer when lashes are washed with water, since that's how other salons I've visited have done it. It still felt a bit unhygienic to begin without a water cleanse. The silicone pads also weren't sticking at all for quite a while, likely because I had moisturizer on. Again, that's exactly why lash techs wet the lashes before starting , to prevent that issue. When the service was finished, the result looked okay at first, but because I felt so rushed, I didn't get a proper look. I genuinely felt like I needed to hurry out so Ashley could go about her day, she actually left the building before I did. Later, I noticed that one side of my lashes was curled higher than the other. When I reached out to express my concern, I was told it's "uncommon" to give a refund without seeing the service in person, even though I sent the requested photos. I found that response disappointing, especially since the prep and overall service were already below standard. I honestly don't understand how this place has five stars. Even if the treatment had turned out perfectly, my experience itself was maybe a three-star one at best. In my opinion the customer service and communication just weren't professional. I also wasn't talked through the process at all, which is I personally find unusual for a lash service where your eyes are closed the entire time. Regardless, I wanted to share my honest experience so others know what to expect. Lastly, if you're driving yourself, note that there's no mention of parking in the confirmation email, and you'll have to pay for public parking nearby. It would've been helpful if that information was disclosed beforehand, since it adds to the cost and inconvenience of the visit. Updated with photos I sent to Ashley before leaving this review. There was no "demanding" I simply wanted to see what the customer service would be like before posting. The photos were taken two to three days apart and show that the curl is losing shape even with normal face washing. My concern wasn't about getting a refund, it was about how the situation was handled. I booked expecting five star service and my treatment didn't reflect that. If I was truly money hungry I would've accepted the $10. I also ONLY asked for a partial refund! I didn't want to return because my experience wasn't good and I'd rather do this at home on my own since I haven't had much success getting it done by a professional. Which is why I reached out to Ashley giving the benefit of the doubt, thinking my experience might have been a rare occurrence. My review reflects my personal experience and opinion. Any statements about "extortion" , "demanding a refund" , "defame" made in response by the salon are incorrect. I communicated my concerns politely and professionally, simply to see if anything could be done before posting a review. I now feel threatened and distressed by the response I received. Information I shared privately and in confidence has been made public, and false statements have been written about me. I reached out in good faith to resolve my concern, not to harm anyone's business. I'm disappointed that my honest feedback has been met with personal attacks instead of professionalism. read more

I've been going to The Pretty Palace for facials with Ashley for a little over a year now, and every single visit has been amazing! Ashley is so sweet, patient, and really takes her time with each treatment. The room is super cozy and relaxing. I literally look forward to my appointments every month. My skin always feels so clean and glowy afterward, and I get tons of compliments for days! If you're thinking about booking a facial, definitely go see Ashley. She's the best! read more

Love this place! I have never been one to prioritize facials, or much else beauty wise but I really enjoy my two experiences getting facials with Ashley. Running and cycling I spend a lot of time in the Sun and I naturally have very dry skin. When I leave pretty parlor, I feel so rejuvenated and my husband comments on how nice my skin looks. It feels great too!‍‍ I highly recommend Ashley's services! I am going to try waxing and lashes from her next! read more

Ashley is a knowledgeable professional. She thoroughly assessed my skin and made recommendations on avenues of treatment for my facial. My face glowed for weeks! Her studio is in a shared building, but the space is quiet and relaxing. Highly recommend! read more

Had my first ever facial at Pretty Palace through ClassPass. It was a little hard to find the salon, but once I arrived Ashley took great care of me! I got the nanochanneling facial - very relaxing space, almost fell right asleep. The extraction process can be a little uncomfortable, but I can't argue with the results. My face looked visibly brighter for a week afterwards. This trip was just for fun, but I might need to come back for special occasions in the future. Thank you Ashley! read more

I have been getting facials regularly for the last 10 years, but it was my first time with Ashley. She is definitely one of the better estheticians I have had the pleasure of seeing. I booked an appointment for the Barbie Botox facial, and I was pleasantly surprised with the attention to detail and time she took with the appointment. She is very thorough yet gentle, and prefaces the treatment/mask she is applying. I'm not a huge fan of the location, but she is definitely worth it.
