I was really nervous because it was my first time getting waxed but she was very gentle! She recommended products to use for aftercare as well. I also got a great discount since it was my first time going to this salon.

I have been going to this location for awhile now and some of the waxers are great. However, last…read moremonth, the front desk person who checked me out thought I was another customer and charged me for the wrong amount. She called me and asked if she could recharge my card for the right amount. I gave her my credit card info over the phone. They charged me for the wrong amount (again). I called them back multiple times to get refunded. I talked to multiple people and they said the manager was going to contact me. It has been a month and no one has followed up with me. No follow up, very unprofessional on the management part.

Her services are very…read morerelaxing, she explains everything thoroughly, and overall I've consistently had good experiences with her over the years. She's knowledgeable and makes you feel comfortable during appointments. The only thing I will say is that at times I felt a little pushed to purchase additional products that honestly are still sitting on my shelf unused. Besides that, she truly does great work. I'd just recommend standing firm on your budget and what you're comfortable spending. Overall, I still highly recommend her services!

Absolutely ridiculous. Look at what my first experience looked like and how FULL AND CUTE my…read moreeyebrows were. MY ENTIRE eyebrow end is GONE?!! I asked for a clean up. Keep thick and full and said this multiple times before and even during the service twice and she gives me the mirror after she's done and I'm horrified. I was like okay so I need a discount or free charge and she was like okay you have to come back Feb 6 and ask the manager and I was like 0% of that makes sense. Who said that day works for me, how would the manager know if she wasn't informed by u guys....and why would I need my eyebrows done aGAIN now that I have to wait MONTHS to get these suckers to grow back in again like literally do not trust these people. So ridiculous

I think they have a 3% fee if paying by card like most small businesses. I got lucky with walking in on a Saturday but the waiting area seats quickly filled up during my service. This was the best/most painless experience I've had in a while and I really appreciated that they were patient when I asked for small corrections afterwards. They ask if you'd like aloe vera and they also do a tiny light massage on the brows afterwards. Highly recommend! They'll ask if you want a punch card and the 6th (or 7th) visit will be free :)

Last week, I went to see the owner Carrie for a gentleman's facial--including hot stone shoulder massage--and realized I need to take better care of myself, even as I am working so hard to take care of those around me. You owe it to yourself to experience the Secret Garden. Then pay it forward and get a gift certificate for someone who needs it!

The shop doesn't have a street-level storefront so you have to use a code to get into the building/upstairs. Really clean and aesthetic space with limited number of stations. I think there were only four pedicure stations and five nail stations in total. I really like the selection of colors and styles but just wanted to do a simple regular pedicure and gel manicure for this visit. My only question was pricing. It's not clear how much each service is and I didn't see a pricing list in store. There's a 10% discount for first-time visitors but somehow I still paid the same as another customer who got a gel mani/pedi when I only did a gel mani. I didn't bother questioning the beauty technician because she did a really good job and gave me the 10% discount. Would go back again (and just pay more attention to the pricing)!

This location is in the old bank of America with lots of other suites. There is a paid parking lot next door or you can find street metered parking. There is a code you need to get into the building that they gave me prior to coming in. I showed them my inspo pic and they got the color and everything right. They were very detailed with my nails & my pedicure. The nail salon is cute itself & I love how they play music. I will definitely be back for my next fill!
