I thought this place was pretty great. I booked online and was able to get in the same morning and…read morewas seen quickly after arriving. I got a delux pedicure and overall it was a good experience. I have sensitive skin so something they used did upset my skin a bit, but it was temporary and was gone the next day. The only other issue I have is I'm unable to remove the polish with my own nail polish remover, but I'll just go back. I just wish they would let you know ahead of time they prefer cash payment as I never carry cash on me.

I really wanted to like this nail salon because they're always busy, which usually says good things…read moreabout the quality of their work. Since they're almost always full, I decided to do what they recommend and make an appointment. I booked my appointment through their website, entered my name, email, phone number, selected my services, and even chose "random" for the technician. The booking appeared to go through, so I showed up at my scheduled time. When I arrived, I was told they were too busy and that they didn't have my appointment. After explaining that I booked through their website, I was told, "Oh, the website doesn't work for booking." That was incredibly frustrating. If the online booking system doesn't actually work, why is it still accepting appointments and collecting customers' information? What disappointed me most was that there was no effort to accommodate me or make the situation right. Instead, I was simply told to come back the next day. I explained that I specifically made an appointment because I couldn't come another day, and the response was basically, "Oh well." My advice to anyone planning to visit: don't rely on the website. If you think you've made an appointment online, call the salon to confirm it before showing up. Hopefully they either fix the online booking system or remove it altogether so other customers don't waste their time.

I have always been extremely particular about my eyebrows. Before moving to the States, I saw a…read moreprofessional wax aesthetician every month, so when I arrived here, my first mission was to find a brow artist who could truly rival the one I had in Beijing, and Anita did exactly that. I've now had my brows done by Anita three times, all with threading (I was curious to try something new instead of my usual waxing). Her technique is consistently impressive. She shapes my brows in a way that feels clean, refined, and very natural for my face. Plus, the shape consistently lasts for about a month before needing a touch-up. On top of her skill, Anita is also incredibly warm and kind. She finishes the service with a soft, soothing massage, and the vibe in the salon is calm and relaxing too. If you're someone who has high standards for your brows, you really won't regret coming to see Anita.

I needed a wax for an upcoming trip and refused to go back to the "chain" wax establishment. On a whim I booked the service here as I LOVED the name and the price point! Best decision.

I absolutely adore the Yoni Temple! I've been coming here for a little over a year now and I can…read morehonestly say that this has been the best waxing salon that I've ever been to. The salon is bright and inviting and the staff is incredible. I'm always greeted by Elliott's big smile and super charm. She is always so sweet and I love chatting with her in the waiting room. Shymell is an absolute doll and one hell of a waxer! I've been seeing Shymell since last October and every experience has been wonderful. Of course this isn't a painless experience, but Shymell makes the environment really comfortable and quick. Shymell is so fun and easy to talk to. It really feels like I'm chatting with an old friend during our sessions. She is clean, thorough and articulate. In the past, I've found that previous waxers have left quite a bit of hair from time to time. Nothing will ever be perfect and there will always been fine hairs left behind, but Shymell makes sure that there is virtually no hair left. I love that the salon carries many of the products that are used as well as other trinkets like greeting cards. You might be able to find cheaper prices elsewhere for the same services, but you won't find this kind of high quality service and care anywhere else. Ashley and her team have done a swell job with this waxing studio. I'm so grateful to have them around. Thank you for all that you do!

I booked a 45-min back treatment with Shannon, and the experience could not be even more perfect…read more The spa/clinic was light-filled with minimal aesthetics. Luckily their location was not terrible to find, as there was ample street parking. When I walked in, the warm and friendly receptionist greeted and made me feel right at home. Throughout my visit, Shannon shared me with her wealth of knowledge of the various AHAs as well as retinoid products. I love that we were able to geek out on which products to use to achieve brightening effects. She also made some recommendations based on my skin type such as mandelic acid instead of glycolic acid for gentle exfoliation. Without trying to oversell me her products, she suggested that I try over-the-counter Nizoral antifungal wash for possible white-heads that pop up occasionally as well as prescription tretinoin since I had a few hyperpigmented spots that I wanted to fade/brighten. Given it was my first time there, she did allow me to use my credit card to pay but informed me that she only accepted cash or checks to help keep operating costs down. Since my back issues were minor based on her assessment, I did not schedule a return visit. I so very much appreciate her sound and scientifically backed advice (I also follow various certified dermatologists on IG for general aging skin care maintenance); I definitely will be making a visit if future skin issues arrive!

They also give you numbing spray which is super helpful and other great tips to minimize hair grow growth. Totally worth it and highly recommended!
