Bumps everywhere, uneven
Jessielein C.

I am the most understanding and willing to hear people out. As a real estate agent for the past 11yrs I pride myself in customer service and I am on the end of dealing with customers and making sure they are content with there purchases and it's my prerogative to make sure they are guided from start to finish.I get no joy in having to review my procedure especially being a very private person. Regardless I feel people need to know before they spend there time, money, body and in the end trust there face to this place. With that said, Allison was very good at answering me to get me to the door to use her services. Once I got there it was a completely different scenario. I was told to come on a specific day under the impression I had an appt to get a procedure done (lip flip filler, this is not my first time). I show up tells me to wait she's slammed with people. I'm thrown in between appts, she has construction workers the place has only an open waiting area and just one procedure room. I literally walked in and out of the procedure room 4xs. Didn't have the filler available had to step out and pick it up from her vendor. I waited for my lips to numb in the open main area in front of several ppl with cream all over my mouth (they do not use lidocaine injections and charge the same amount and none of this is discussed until you agree to the procedure and price). Finally my lips were numb but still I felt everything. She even had a video taken after I specifically said I did not want my entire face shown. In the video I'm clearly in pain. Finally my procedure is done (most painful lip filler I've ever had) I was told I would get a half syringe. She was not clear at all that meant half of one on each lip .25 I had an half a syringe on each lip not half of one before. My lips were way fuller before I did the procedure and now they look smaller than before. Initially at the spa yes they looked full given I just had my lips injected there were swollen. By the next day I had bruising everywhere and bumps all inside my mouth. (Now I'm well aware this is normal) however I still have bumps. We are going on 4 weeks!!! I called over and over to get back to the spa and have the nurse check me out. Allison gave me the run around for 24hrs couldn't give me a direct reply and finally gave me a time an hour before mine you it's Sunday and clearly I can't just drop kids family I needed a time to which she said "i told you to come today" that's what she said. Not hey come at 330 you will be the last client and you may be here an hour. No direct anything. She said it was the only day her nurse would be available for the next two weeks which I thought is ridiculous. How is the nurse going to be absent for that long? Anyhow after being accused I was "attacking her" I really became untrusting and since her nurse couldn't see me on a Monday or any day after I asked her to be fair and just reimburse me for the lip filler. I accepted the lip flip but wanted to fix the filler to her response was NO. Which I was shocked. Her nurse at the spa couldn't see me for two weeks and then tells me I won't see results for several weeks. Again not my first time my lips have NEVER looked the way they are now. Please do your research and ask questions. Also they are shady with the pricing. She quoted me $900 for full face Botox, lip flip and lip filler and then when I asked to break down the price it didn't match her original pricing. I'm not the only one this has happened to. My friend did Botox and it came out great but lip fillers I'd check out the many other options in Miami.

Best place ever to get ANY service done . Amazing and super welcoming staff. 10/10 recommend

I never usually leave reviews no matter how great or bad the service/experience was but after my experience with Ally it was a must. First let me separate the 1st service I received from the customer service experience I encounter the 2nd time around. I received a wonderful facial from the esthetician Ally's mother because of this first service I re-booked via the So Vain Beauty Bar online scheduling system. The day before my scheduled appointment I received a text message from Ally informing me that the esthetician was sick and asking me if I could reschedule. I could not reschedule due to planned prior commitments for the week and ask for my deposit to be refunded. After offering time slots I was not available for she agreed to send me my deposit back but she fail to mention I would be charged a convenience fee. I asked for the fee back and Ally's tone then became unprofessional and rude. See text messages below. I love supporting local business especially when they are good but I will not be treated with disrespect or deal with unprofessional behavior no matter the cost. Customer service is lacking at this business. I refuse to accept bad customer service when there are other options for service providers. The old saying remains "you pay for what you get". I would rather pay more and deal with professional attitudes of owners/employees that make good customer service a priority. The one star rating is based totally on my customer service experience with Ally if I could give no stars I would. If you schedule an appointment you will have to deal with her so be aware and schedule at your own risk.

Before and after, Lash Lift
Ines F.

Allison had great reviews on Yelp so I decided to give her a try. SHE DID NOT DISAPPOINT! We had great conversations throughout my lash lift procedure which made the time fly by. Her table so confortable and I love the cozy atmosphere. Will try other services that she provides little by little.

I got my lashes done here on Monday. Today is now Saturday and pretty much all of my lashes have fallen off. The first one fell of 30 minutes after l left her house. I didn't wet them or brush them the first day and they still dropped off. She did a good job with applying them but her glue might be old or something. I took this pic this morning after washing my face and patting my right eye dry and a whole gang of my lashes had fallen off. Nice girl but waste of money.

Hannia F.

I loved my service! I really liked that she explained to me how to better take care of my eye lashes since I used to go with another lady and they kept falling off too fast. The place is super cozy and she's super understanding; I was 30 mins later to my appointment due to traffic and she still took her time on my service and made me feel right at home! I love how my lashes turned out and my eye brows as well! Not going back anywhere else !

Katie L.

Have been waiting to get my lashes done because I was looking for someone that does good work for an afforable price. Ali is so nice and tells you exactly how to make your lashes last. Her work is amazing! I found my forever Lash artist! Oh and she is quick, I was in and out in a little over an hour! Clean and professional. Would recommend her to anyone.

Chabely P.

great service! Allison will make sure your lashes come out just how you want them. Never disappoints! love love love my lashes. I wanted a natural wispy look and she delivered, the picture does it no justice, they look 1000x better in person.

classic lashes
Jessica P.

I loved my lashes! Allison is very professional and sweet. It was my first time getting eyelash extensions. I loved the experience! I got a classic set. Will be continuing to use her services such as lashes, eyebrow shaping (tint), and facials. Place is very clean, cozy, and relaxing.

After facial
Allie H.

Allison and her mom Marlene are amazing! I got a hydro facial done with dermaplanning, extractions, microdermabrasion, a jelly mask and an LED mask all for a great price! My skin is glowing and it's all thanks to them! Checkout my amazing before and after photos!!

Amazing

Everything is perfect the young lady that takes the appointments really nice Raisa is the best I…read morebeen doing my nails for a while very professional

I called on Saturday, 7/12, to see if they had availability for a pedicure, and they were able to…read morefit me in an hour before closing. I was visiting from out of town and had limited time in the area so I appreciated them accommodating me on short notice. The technician who started my service was very kind, but she mentioned a few times that she wasn't feeling well. Out of concern, I told her she could skip the polish and stop early. Later, I regretted that decision and called back to see if I could return to have the polish applied. The receptionist was not particularly friendly, but eventually agreed I could come back the next day, Sunday. When I returned, the overall vibe was a bit off. The receptionist and the new technician seemed cold, and it felt like there may have been some internal discussion about the situation. Nonetheless, the service was completed. Unfortunately, by today, Monday (7/14), the polish on one of my toenails has already chipped, which is frustrating so soon after the appointment. When I used to live in Miami Lakes and when I come to visit, I typically go to the other location by Veterans Park and see Magalys, and I've always had great experiences with her. They were unfortunately booked for the rest of the weekend. While I've had consistently positive experiences at their other location, this visit was disappointing by comparison.

Pampering I must say!…read more I have been coming to the Hand and Stone Miami Lakes for a few years now. I have been a member on and off a few times. I can't seem to stay away. My original Facial Girl left a bit after Covid... but I've been seeing Claudia! ( but all the techs are amazing) Claudia would be my preferred she is just amazing and knowledgeable. She analyzes the skin and provides options on the services that my skin may benefit. My skin is VERY sensitive so many times I'll choose for the sensitive skin care products ( that's like $20-$30 additional upgrade) . The facial includes extraction of white/black heads, scrubs, moisturizer. Even an upper chest /shoulder massage. I tend to always fall into " I want to get pampered" so I tend to upgrade my services. Facials I will upgrade with something like the LED light (red or blue) I have requested combination and the tech has accommodated my needs with both!! I've upgraded my facials cold stones that feels amazing and helps with puffy/redness. (Me) As for my Massages my lady is no doubt Lydia! She is excellent! She will ask on your expectations and she knows how to target the tense shoulders! She is firm but won't leave you sore. Oh! With my facial service last week with Claudia I mentioned to her if any services that could be added for my sore feet. She recommended the "Foot Treatment" that targets tired soles and restore step. That includes a foot scrub, massage with lotion. ( totally helped me) I would recommend as an added service. Back to Massages... well I have upgraded my massages with CBD oil , aromatherapy, hot stones (amazing) . Highly recommend adding the mini or the Himalayan Salt Stone. Feels so healing! At the end of the service you are offered water or tea. The front desk girls are friendly. Parking free and plenty near the front door. Also they have accommodating hours Sunday-Saturday 7 days a week from 9am to 9pm. So it works with busy schedules and preferences on the relaxation time. If you can it's definitely worth becoming a member! The points earned are an extra bonus to add services!

In my opinion there are some of the girls who do facials are not very good. And this place is…read moresoooo expensive. For instance, I once had a facial and when the girl was passing a device along my forehead the device grabbed my hair and she didn't stop she kept on. I was livid. There are better places in Miami Lakes.
