    In a week, I came here three times! First, they are currently going under construction but still operating so make sure to really pay close attention to the sign because you just might miss it! Once again, they are open during construction. Also, the location is so convenient if you're coming from the loop because you can just take the brown line to western. You can also transfer from the red line or purple line onto the brown line from Fullerton or Belmont. In addition, there's multiple buses that run to western and Lawrence. I first came on Monday to get my hair cut by Amela. I had a semi Marilyn Monroe haircut and wanted Amela to trim it shorter by about two inches. She washed my hair, really massaged my scalp and shampooed twice. Once she was done, combed my hair and started cutting. I have a really sensitive scalp so when someone brushes my hair, it's really painful. I told Amela to be careful while she brushes my ends and she was very considerate of that. She removed a lot of damage from my hair. Some hair stylists cut just straight across and style it but I asked her to slightly layer my hair to remove the damage. She constantly asked me if I wanted to chop off more and she was very conscious of my reaction. I wanted shorter hair so I kept telling her to chop it all off! Once she was done, she blow dried my hair and then trimmed the ends a bit. I absolutely loved my haircut and the way she blow dried my hair! She charged me $32 for the cut, wash and blow dry. Very reasonable. Amela is bee sweet On Wednesday I went to see Veronika for a bikini wax. This woman. THIS WOMAN. First of all, she is so kind, charismatic and so wonderful. Don't be surprised when you see a Barbie, she is not only beautiful on the outside but in. She makes you feel really at ease during a process that can be really painful and unpleasant. I usually call in advance to let her know I'm coming because she can be booked up. When you arrive, she checks in and walks you over to the wax room. The room is sanitized and she gives you time to change into a bikini- not really sure how to describe it but it's basically like a thong but for waxing. If she thinks you're nervous, she talks to you during the wax but she moves quickly. If she can't wax off something, she literally takes tweezers and pulls it out, that's how much she pays attention to detail. I personally only use hot wax but I'm sure she does threading too. For a Bikini wax, I'm usually done in 15-20 mins. A bikini wax is $30 and then obviously, remember to tip graciously :) highly recommend Veronika! My last trip here was on Saturday but I didn't get anything done, my mom did. My mom wanted an updo and Olga is usually her go to stylist. My mom had washed her hair the day before and didn't want it to be frizzy if she washed it again so she just asked Olga to style it. Therefore, she did not get her hair washed at the salon. My mom has a big nose and requested Olga to style it in a way where the hair style compliments her nose when she turns to the side. Olga really listened to her suggestions and then first teased her hair before curling the ends. Olga used a lot of bobby pins to bring the hairdo to life but the hair style was beautiful. Olga really takes her job with full pride and it is apparent in her technique. The hair style itself took about an hour but my mom wore it for four days after. That's how durable the style was! Since my mom didn't wash her hair there, the updo cost her $50.

    Veronica is the best! I always go to her for my Brazilian waxes! She is FAST, super thorough, plays great music and is fun to chat with and so sweet! She calls me sweetheart. :) now she's convinced me to wax my arms and I love it!!

    I live in the neighborhood and have been wanting to get my hair cut... it's been 3 years! My hair was dry, flat, and my ends were beat. I walked in and Olga was available. Man did I get lucky! She is an expert. I told her I wanted just a little off the bottom but she knew immediately how to cut and style my hair to frame my face. So I let her do what she thought was best. Olga gave me a truly fabulous haircut and I will definitely be back to see her. She studied at Vidal Sassoon in London!! Thank you, Olga!
