    She didn't get the corners of my thumb...
    Dana D.

    Beautiful establishment. Very clean from what I experienced when I went in. They have so many colors to choose from! I'm giving 3 stars because I booked a regular gel mani and a gel pedi online... I know super basic but it was more basic than I expected lol, it felt rushed, I did not receive any soaking, heel buff (which is what I really came in for as this is my first time since before giving birth getting a pedicure and was so looking forward to nice smooth feet/heels!) or a 5 minute massage as stated on their site. It felt like I went in to just get my nails painted lol. I was thinking maybe it's because I had my baby with me (which wasn't a problem because he is super chill and quiet) but I feel like the lady getting serviced next to me was just as rushed. I will say, everyone was super friendly and welcoming. I was serviced by Trang (Pedi) and Helen (Mani). Updated (2 stars): in less than a week my gel nails started chipping... shine/top coat also did not last

    Gel x manicure

    Service is always done well, staff is very friendly, and location is really clean. There is a lot of parking nearby as well.

    Gel X plus designs! Bring in a picture of ur designs and the nail tech takes a picture to reference as they do you nails. Great service.

    I had a great first time experience at this salon. They work quickly and the front desk host makes sure you are comfortable and feel welcomed from the moment you walk in. She took my jacket and offered me a seat while I waited and checked in with me multiple times. The nail service was great and even when I walked out, they make payment so easy for you given your nails are fresh and you cant dig in your purse as aggressively lol and even got a cuticle oil. 10/10 would recommend!

    french gel pedicure

    i loved this nail salon!!! i happened to walk buy and saw how nice it looked inside so i booked an appointment for a deluxe french gel pedicure. vivian did an amazing job she was very gentle and it came out perfect!! all the staff were very nice, the salon was clean, and they had good music playing. i will definitely be coming here from now on!

    I have gone to Purity a couple of times now for builder gel (with tips and gel polish), and Andrew has done a beautiful job every time! He is so talented, incredibly detailed, and listens to every request. They have tons of color and service selections and are very timely and professional. The establishment is also comfortable and clean. I will be back for more!

    Dip powder on natural nails

    Love this place! Got my usual dip powder on my natural nails and I felt like Tracy really took her time with them! Clean salon space that is modern and has a fun vibe. Conveniently located 5 stops away on the MBTA D line from Fenway where I reside :)

    I've been to so many nail salons and not only is this place well priced but the product is beautiful. They take their time to make sure you are getting what you want. They checked in with me during each step and were able to accommodate the requested I had. Tracy did my nails and I will absolutely be booking with her again! She's so talented!!

    I walk by this place often and have been meaning to find a new nail salon and let me tell you, this place is amazing! Such a cute gem right in the heart of Cleveland Circle, easy to access by train and by Boston College. You have to call to make an appointment and if you want any nail designs you email a picture in advance. I really loved my experience. I felt taken care of and it turned out so good! The attention to detail and precision is really amazing. I previously had gel nails so we had to remove them and do the design. It took l a little over an hour in total but was a really good experience. My friend also gets pedicures here and they have different "experience" options. Would recommend if you're looking for a neighborhood salon. It's pricing is up there with the other salons so keep that in mind, but it's worth it for a quality experience. I've been to salons where I leave dissatisfied and that is not how it goes down here. I will definitely be going back and highly recommend!

    I am beyond impressed with Purity Nail Bar, and I can't say enough nice things ... seriously. Their customer service blew me away, and I will definitely be going back, as well as telling all of my friends about this nail salon. I had an accident as a baby, which led me to only have one hand that is manicure-worthy. The owners of Purity Nail Salon were extremely accommodating ... gave me a reasonable discount and were very professional. The employees there were also extremely professional and did not make me feel like a freakkkkk, which has happened at other nail salons. Alsooooo, they did an amazing job!!! See for yourself!!!

    I had a not so great experience at another salon so I was on the search for a new nail salon. My coworker just started coming here as we work close by, and she suggested I try them out. I had Trinh for a mani pedi. She was professional and did great on my nails. I had to pay in the middle of the appointment before she completed my manicure which I found odd but I didn't mind. They offer more services for a pretty decent price compared to other salons. I will definitely be back here after my first visit !

    The reason why I wrote the review because I would like you to pay more attention to your service. You can obviously see my nail job was unacceptable. As you mentioned, I got the offered from you to redo with the same person who did it for me. In my opinion that's not a good idea to let customers get the sevice from the person who gave them bad experience (As you reply me on yelp that you didn't understand) Even though I got the offered to redo it from you but it doesn't mean I can't review my experience on Yelp. I still have a right to review it even it's good or bad. And the way you answered me on yelp and text messages was rude. I didn't feel any sincerely apologize from you. It was full of sarcasm that's not professional at all. Don't forget that the most important thing to do the business is sincerity.

    I booked a waxing appointment shortly after they opened, and had not been to any of their locations…read moreso I was looking forward to checking out a new one. The woman at the front desk was nice, so I do have one positive memory! It started out on a strange note, the girl who did the waxing just came out of the back waxing area and waved me in; someone else was waiting so I wasn't exactly sure if she meant me at first? One of my BIG pet peeves is someone not introducing themself (and welcoming them to a brand-new location), and that was the case here. Worse than the "just a wave, no introduction" was the actual wax itself: forget about the usual going home and needing to pluck a few hairs (emphasis on FEW); in this case, I went home and looked around to find someone who did "patch areas" AND could get me in quickly because there was an entire section that had not been waxed!!! It didn't occur to me to LOOK before I got dressed, but now I know I should check out the handiwork before leaving. That was another $20 added on (as well as the time of finding someone and going to the appointment), so it definitely wasn't a great experience!

    I've been going here for some time and just getting the basic facial. Its really well priced,…read moreeverything is clean, overall I really liked it. They have periodic sales where you can buy a package of multiple facials. Its nice to be able to come in for a facial that's reasonably priced and they have an online booking system which is convenient. I have not done any add-ons (so can't comment on them); just the basic facial. My esthetician has been Caitlin. They also have plenty of weekend appointment slots if you book early ahead of time.

    Today i experienced by far the WORST wax I've ever had in my life. One thing I've always notice…read morewith this wax company is whenever your regular waxer has to cancel on you, they ALWAYS give you someone that isn't the best and the experience is never good. I've been getting waxes for 3 years now and 2 with this company. I've never had to tell a waxer to stop what they are doing mid wax because the pain is that unbearable. Literally to the point of me crying my eyes out. What pissed me off is the girl that waxed me told me my pain is coming from my hairs being too long. I instantly knew that was BS because I've gotten waxes looking like a bear on the wax table multiple times and NEVER HAS IT BEEN THIS UNBEARABLY PAINFUL. I could also tell she either wasn't trained well or didn't have any experience because she focused on one area of my body vs bouncing off body parts like a waxer would normally do. She focused on my Brazilian area for about 30 mins continuously applying wax over and over again. I asked her if my skin was red or bleeding and she told me no, but the moment i sat up to look my whole Brazilian area was very red and bumpy from the pain and amount of time she went over it. Normally when someone is doing a Brazilian on me, it takes about 5-7 mins if that. I've never experienced a wax session this bad. And on top of all that, she couldn't finish because she felt uncomfortable to do so with is understandable, but the fact that i am literally getting on a plane to Mexico tomorrow is a HUGE inconvenience to me! Now im forced to shave the body parts she didn't get to. I haven't shaved in 3 years because I am a consistent waxer. The fact i have to shave the rest is utterly disappointing and frustrating. I am beyond upset and lost for words at my experience today.

    I had eyebrows, upper and lower lip, and chin done last Sunday. The technician had a nice demeanor,…read morebut her technique left me with sores (that soon turned into scabs) on my lower lip and eyebrow area. Instead of using a single swift pull, this technician (Sheila) used a series of small pulls, which I believe led to the sores. But I'm not sure about that. What I can say is that I'm in my mid-50s, have been waxing for decades, and have never been left with sores/scabs. So this issue is distinct to this visit to EWC in Brookline, MA (and I've been to several others in the area). Additionally troubling is that I wrote a note to EWC stating the above to no avail, even offering to send them photos that I'd taken. Not only did no one contact me, I know they received my complaint because I got a follow-up survey inquiring as to my satisfaction regarding the efficacy of their follow-up. Incredible! You can't make this stuff up. I've even checked Junk, thinking "surely not, surely *someone* would have written back; maybe it went into the Spam folder." Nope. Non. Nada. Anyway, the woman at the front desk was lovely, friendly, chatty, and very welcoming. Despite that, unless I want more scabs, returning to this EWC seems unwise and so I won't.

And there were bits of wax and unattended hairs left on my body. Just go to an independent aesthetician for a better experience, I'm never coming back here.
