I'm always greeted warmly by the receptionist and have never had a long wait for my service(s). The salon is clean, quaint, and neat. You will have to walk up a flight of stairs to get to the salon. For a Brazilian appointment I'm always out in about 30 minutes. The service is neat and as comfortable as can be and I like coming to BareSkin because I have limited discomfort during my waxing. The products and techniques the staff employs is phenomenal and they truly care about skincare maintenance in between appointments. There is paid street parking nearby but I recommend earlier appointments for more parking openings (the salon is located in Old Town Alexandria) $$

I have been a loyal customer since they first opened…read more Been coming here for years - first discovered this place over Groupon, and it has been a pleasure to see it grow over the past 3 years in terms of employees and clients. (The salon was originally founded by two women who worked at a salon together and wanted to start their own business,) All the employees are super sweet. I typically get eyebrow threading and eyelash tint done. This is the cheapest (highest quality eyelash tint) in the DMV area (Used to be $20, raised to $25.) The staff give good, honest advice. They advised me not to tint by eyebrows given their color and texture. The staff make all the clients feel beautiful. I've seen them boost confidence of a cancer patient who recently lost most of her hair. The place is wheelchair accessible. Parking is easy but I like to scooter here and leave my scooter in the shop. I'm also a fan of the loyalty program - 7 eyebrows visits and 8th free.

I have visited the Alexandria location a few times and have generally been satisfied with the…read moreservices provided. Today, I arrived on time for my appointment to find the studio closed and locked. I had to call to learn that my service provider was not working. It is a challenge to navigate traffic and parking in the area, so I was frustrated that I wasn't informed about the cancellation prior to my arrival. I was given a discount on the service and given the option to reschedule, but that was not a feasible option for me. In the service industry, proactive communication is important to me to demonstrate respect of people's time.

Was excited to try the facials here because of all the 5 star reviews, but sadly, my experience was…read morea disappointment. Even before going in, I had a gripe with the website lacking in information and prices - why not just make it easy on your customer and just include that info online?? For those wondering, we paid: - $85 for a facial with enzyme peel and extractions (Twinkle Twinkle) - $85 for European facial (Above the Stars). Was supposed to come with massaging for $110 but she forgot so we got a discount. When we got there, we were invited to a very warm and cozy space, but there was a misunderstanding on the services. I had asked for back to back or simultaneous facials (if possible) for myself and my husband. Sarah said that she could do simultaneous facials, so I took that to mean that there would be two rooms and estheticians on site and we would each have our separate treatments at the same time. But no... instead, it was just her when we got there and she led us both to the same room and said that one could sit in a chair while the other was getting their facial done. This was a bit odd to me, but I went with it... she performed an enzyme peel on my face and then put a mask on, and then my husband and I switched spots. While my husband was getting his first 20-30 minutes of treatment, I sat on a chair uncomfortably scrolling through my phone... not exactly a spa experience. And then we switched back and we each got another 10-15 minutes. It felt very unprofessional, especially at the price you are paying. In total, we were there for 1.5 hours. How exactly does that timing add up when we are paying full price for two services, I don't know. Another gripe - there was a lot of time during the facial spent on preparing and opening things while things "sat" on our faces. That is a huge pet peeve for me when getting facials because I am paying for a full hour of service, so that's what I should get. If there is a mask on my face, you can still be massaging my scalp/neck/hands at the same time. If I wanted to lay down with a mask on, I could have done that at home. Now down to the actual quality of facial treatments - meh. A week later, my face is STILL peeling like a lizard from the enzyme peel. That would be ok except that she had not mentioned the possibility of that happening at all. A few days after, my husband's face looked pretty splotchy, and he is blessed with pretty normal and clear skin to begin with. Luckily, we didn't get these facials before a big event like a wedding or something. And also - none of the products she used even smelled good and the towels were pretty rough. The towels smelled faintly like cigarette smoke to me... ick. Little things, but again, I'm paying for an experience when I get a facial and this wasn't it. Maybe she was having an off day, i don't know. But for us, we won't be coming back and will instead be driving the 1+ hour to Maryland to go the esthetician I know and love.

I have somewhat combination skin, with breakouts along my cheek and small bumps in the summer. She recommended a microdermabrasion and mask.

My skin felt a lot better and I think it really helped! Also, there is some original art that is available for sale in front and it is absolutely delightful! :) I will remember to return the next time I am in the area, for sure!

Shawn is friendly, professional, and down to earth. If you're looking for a new wax spot definitely book with her.

https://www.yelp.com/biz/shawn-marie-beauty-arlington?hrid=_x9hj79TEKwTKU9JbiYe6w&utm_source=ishare&…read moretm_content=review It's been 2 years since my initial review and I apologize for the delay! I have been seeing Shawn for 5 years now and I honestly couldn't think of going anyplace else to get a vag shape-up. I provided screenshots of my initial review of Shawn from the first year I started going to her. After a 2yr long wait, I can confidently say that NOTHING in that review has changed except for her using a hard wax (it's my fav now), the place she waxes, and her being her own boss. Outside of those things, my girl has still be on her game and I braved through the quarantine lockdown just to see my favorite "Barber of Vag" again (that's real love if you didn't know). Now while I want all women who are on the lookout for a bomb esthetician to find comfort in knowing that Shawn is definitely the right esthy for you... I specifically like to give info for my fellow black women/people, WOC/POC. LOOK NO FURTHER LADIES!! I know how daunting it is to seek out services that have people like us in mind as well. I hear you, I see you, and I am with you. Some background about myself: I am a 25yr old light skin black woman with really course,curly, and dark body and facial hair. If you were able to check out my review in the screenshots provided, you will know that I consider myself to posses a "wolf-gene" (lol) see how much appreciation and love I have for Shawn for taking care of me and helping me to regain my confidence and get my hair under control. I have suffered from excessive and fast hair growth since 6th grade and my self confidence and skin took a hit from it. A skillful barber specializing in the mons pubis, Shawn is also a bomb a** lash tech as well. It's been a year since I started getting my lashes done by her and I'm not sure if I can go back to not having them. While everyone's experience will be different based on a variety of factors (how strong your natural lashes are, if you wear makeup consistently, how will you take care of them, etc) I personally have great retention from her lash work and nobody can really tell that they aren't mine. Shawn makes sure that her clients have at least a basic knowledge on aftercare and general health of the areas she is providing service to as well. All-in-all, if you are looking for a new esthy for your next vag shape-up, or want to try out some lashes to kick off your "Hot Girl Fall", look no further! It's important for you to feel like you can build a good working relationship with your service providers. Your esthetician is no different and you definitely won't have a problem building that with Shawn. She has such a beautiful spirit and excellent professionalism that I know you won't have any complaints. So what are you waiting for?! Book with Shawn Marie Beauty and tell her Najah sent you!
