I have some brow history, let me tell you. Child of the 90s. This is about my 8th…read moremicroblading/powder brow appointment. I've had them done by two others in St Louis and someone in Cincinnati, chasing that elusive "decent brow". I'm not even looking for perfection, y'all! I'm an oily skinned red head so this isn't easy. I'm also missing the inner part of my brows thanks to the 90s plucking. The color gets pushed out and fades to grey. My person in Cincinnati was working on color correction but I stopped traveling with COVID so I needed to find someone local that wouldn't mangle them like the previous local place. Amber has done a fantastic job trying to color correct my grey. They looked great right after. I didn't even need those few days for them to settle down like before. I'm very hopeful that after my touch up, they will be warmer and coordinate with my red hair. Finding someone that can color correct is NOT EASY! (Another STL person said she couldn't even try). Amber is fantastic!

as the one year anniversary comes up on my decision to get freckles I felt like I did my research…read moreand of course, Amber is lovely in all ways except, the outcome of the faux freckles was an absolute nightmare. It took me eight laser sessions to get them off over a year in time and space not to mention lots and lots of ridicule and questions over that year. I would highly NOT recommend anyone one get faux freckles from this person. If anybody would like to see pictures, I can certainly send them in a private message.

This is absolutely the best nail salon I've ever been to. Why? Because when I explained the problem…read moreI'd been having with the kind of acrylic nail that another salon used, instead of switching to the old-school acrylic, Lila recommended polygel nails. It's made a huge improvement in the health and appearance of my nails. I can wear sheer polish now. My nails don't get nasty discolorations. And Lila never files my living nail like many techs do. (Have you ever had a nail removed and seen all those half circle divets in your nail bed? It's killing your nails!) My nails aren't fake and chunky looking either. I frequently get compliments even though I don't do anything fancy--just simple polish. The salon is near St. Joseph Hospital in old St. Charles and has its own parking lot. So convenient. Its cozy environment is nice--a boutique spot, not 10 techs super busy and trying to fit in walk-ins. They have a scheduling app called Vagaro that I use for appointments. The only drawback you may have is paying a deposit for your appointment. But if you're the kind of person who keeps your appointments, then it will be worth it. In my experience (3 months so far) they've been on time and easy to work with. They just got in some gorgeous new fall colors and I tried a muted pink. But they have rich greens, blues, and browns, too. Maybe I'll go a little bolder next time--a deep blue-- or maybe I'll go back to a sheer. Who knows?

I made an appointment for 330 on a Saturday and they closed at five and I wanted an area highlight,…read morebut something that would cover the gray and potentially a little trim and the employee that was helping me was adamant that she did not have the time for that. I decided I would go with just the color aspect because I had a lot of gray and in talking with her, she said it sounded like I wanted to touch up and highlight, and that she simply did not have the time to do that within an hour and a half and was unable to help me. This is the first time that has happened, but there have been many instances of different things at Fantastic Sam's in general. There's literally no one in the salon and they are all just sitting around. Seems like they don't really want to work.

For the last year or so I have basically not been giving the color that I have wanted when I walk…read morein the door and tell them like Saturday morning I walked in I said my highlights are growing out I just need the roots touched up and I need a trim she said well this hair color looks a little yellow I said well yeah you can do you know fix that if you want to she ends up coloring my whole head mousy Brown and just a few needle slivers of blonde just kind of spread throughout my hair but very infrequently where if you're standing like in front of me like maybe 5 ft you look at me my hair is mousy Brown you don't see any highlights and I didn't tell her to do that so it's pretty pathetic and when I was there and I looked at it I thought maybe the lighting was wrong or something so I got home and I looked in the mirror and I said Jesus I haven't had mousy brown hair in a long time. So I called Saturday and they said they would have the manager (and they acted like they didn't want to give me the manager's first name like what am I going to do look her up find her house and go you know set a fire or explode her house up I mean just wanted to know her first name so I know who I need to speak to but I mean literally it was like pulling teeth just to get her name)call me back but it might not be till the 31st well today is the 1st and I still haven't heard from them I just left a couple messages all I expect is for me to go in there and them to do my hair like I wanted it done in the first place cuz last time they killed my whole head blonde no highlights and I called and said something they never call me back and I never followed up cuz I'm the kind of person that I'm just like don't want to rock the boat don't want to hurt nobody's feelings don't want to piss anybody off so I'll suffer through something because of that well I'm trying to stand up for myself and without being aggressive I'm trying to talk to these people and they're dodging me. I don't want to make it into this big ordeal or this big fiasco or this huge stress upon my shoulders I just want them to talk to me and come to a resolution either refund my money or do my hair the way I want it I'm the customer and I'm sick of being shit on. So no I did not forget get the service I requested and the quality was extremely negative because it wasn't what I asked it for I don't want mousy brown hair I want big blonde highlights.

1/5/18 EDIT -- Final rating: 2 stars. I came here to get my nails done in case my boyfriend…read moreproposed to me, which he ended up doing. My previous review of this place mentioned my dissatisfaction with how Cheryl failed to fix my nails after I messed them up. However, now, looking back at my engagement pictures and reflecting on my manicure, I'm even more disappointed. Please see the attached picture #2 that I added with this update. My nails have tiny little bumps on them. This is from Cheryl filing my nails and failing to clean/dust them off completing before applying polish. I'm so disappointed that this manicure ruined my engagement pictures. I really regret coming here, but sadly I can't change the past, I can only recommend others to stay away. FIRST EDIT -- Updating from 2 to 3 stars: Cheryl called me to apologize and offered to fix my manicure. I really appreciated her reaching out to me, as it shows her professionalism and agreeableness. ORIGINAL REVIEW -- This review is for the gel manicure via Groupon: Found this place on Groupon and regretted buying the manicure deal. Groupon is more expensive than in-store prices, so beware of that. It's $32 on Groupon for a gel manicure but $30 in store. Pros: * Cheryl was really kind and easy to talk to and I enjoyed getting to know her. * Cheryl came in while she was on vacation just to squeeze me in her schedule, which meant a lot to me. * The place itself was clean, fresh, and classy. I felt welcome and comfortable instantly! Cons: * There were limited color options and they didn't have the color I wanted (a simple baby pink). * My manicure turned out sloppy (see attached pictures). I accidentally messed up the nails on my right hand while putting my hand into the light device and when I pointed it out to Cheryl, she said she hoped the top coat would fix it. I went along with it and at the very end, I checked my nails and they were still messed up. * There's excess nail polish on my skin around and under my fingers. This is the first time I walked out of a nail salon with nail polish still on my skin. * The cuticle care and hand massage portions were shorter and less thorough than typical manicures. I hope my manicure was not representative of their usual standards, as I met a couple of regular clients who seemed to love the place. However, based on my experience, I would not recommend this place.
