I even asked my point of contact about this exact issue and she assured me this wouldn't happen, but it did! As a busy mom with a young toddler, this is extremely disappointing given that I needed to arrange childcare for my appointment. I requested a refund on my package and wasn't even able to speak to a manager about the situation; they said they'd send an email to someone but there was no guarantee. So disappointing! Update: They still have not replied to me at all for weeks, or since they left a response on this review. Basically they took my money and vanished.

I had an amazing experience at Dollhouse Beauty Parlor! The day before my appointment, I received…read moreclear directions, which made it easy to find the location. I got my eyebrows microshaded by Hannah and am so happy with them. Hannah is incredibly detail-oriented and took the time to work with my existing microbladed eyebrows to ensure everything blended naturally with my face structure. She took her time with the drawing process which is crucial for permanent makeup. She checked in with me multiple times making sure I was happy with the shape. She is great artist and it was a bonus that she's very chill and easy to talk to. After the appointment, she gave me precise aftercare instructions in person and via text, which made a huge difference in my healing process... I love my brows! If you're considering microblading, I highly recommend Hannah at Dollhouse Beauty Parlor!

Beautiful decor and atmosphere, collaborative treatment plan- as I was able to easily ask questions, we discussed potential side effects (I had none!), and scheduled a 2 wk follow up appt since it was my first time. All seamless and easy! The tox treatment felt like tiny little pin pricks, I rate them 1/10 on the pain scale, it was not a big deal. I started to see notable results within 5 days, by 10-12 days my problematic static line across my nasal bridge disappeared and my angry lines (11's) were gone! At my 2 week follow up, I decided to add on some tox to my crows feet! I'm excited to see the smooth changes as time goes by!

I've been meaning to write this for a long time, because my experience with Amy at Boss Brow…read moregenuinely made a difference in my life. Back in 2023, I was going through a really tough time. I was in early recovery from addiction, stressed, and dealing with a lot of heavy emotions. In the middle of all of that, I started losing hair in one of my eyebrows. It might sound small, but when you already feel vulnerable, something like that can hit your confidence hard. I was embarrassed and tried to hide it every day with my girlfriend's eyebrow makeup. After a while, I started to lose hope that it would ever grow back. My girlfriend suggested microblading, and that's how I found Amy. I came across her on Yelp and booked an appointment, but I was honestly nervous going in. From the moment I sat in her studio, Amy made everything feel simple and comfortable. She explained the process clearly, she was gentle, and she's just really, really good at what she does. When she finished, I looked in the mirror and felt relief for the first time in a long time. My eyebrow looked natural and full again. I didn't have to hide anymore. That small change gave me a boost of confidence I really needed while I was rebuilding my life. Now, over 2 years later, my real eyebrow hair has grown back, and I'm in a much healthier and happier place. But I still think about how important that appointment was for me. Amy didn't just do microblading, she helped me feel like myself again at a time when I really needed that. If you're considering seeing her, just do it. She's talented, professional, and genuinely cares about the people she works with. I'm grateful to her in a way that goes far beyond brows. Thank you Amy!

Unprofessional, poor work…read more Despite the review of F. Stoltzfus, I scheduled my daughter with this business for eyebrow treatment. Based on that review and Amy's response, it sounded like she took the scheduling of these appointments seriously, and would not cancel or reschedule the appointments. I couldn't have been more wrong. My daughter is a college athlete with a strict training schedule, so timing the recovery period (no sweating for 10 days post treatment) accordingly was very important. 1. The initial eyebrow treatment was poorly done. My daughter's natural hair color is dark brown, yet for some reason Amy gave her faint light blonde eyebrows. 2. The follow up appointment for the 2nd treatment was scheduled a month in advance according to my daughter's training schedule and to coordinate with another procedure that she was having done, so as to overlap the recovery protocols. However, a few days before that appointment, Amy texted my daughter saying that she needed to reschedule, and suggested an alternate date. My daughter reluctantly agreed to the alternate date. However, Amy wrote back saying that she had already given that appointment to someone else, and wanted to delay her 2nd treatment to the following week. I then called Amy and asked her to fit my daughter in during the week that she had originally agreed to, whether that mean coming in early, staying late, or moving someone else's appointment around, all of which she refused. Not only that, but she accused me of being unreasonable and refused to offer a refund for the cancelled service.

FINAL UPDATE (1/25/14): I ended up needing 22 sessions spread out over a three year period. At the…read more22nd session, the nurse told me I might as well let them fade on their own. 18 months have passed since my last treatment, and the tattoos have faded to the point where they are barely detectable - I'd say 95% gone. The two tattoos I had removed were on either ankle - apparently ankles take longer because they are so far away from the heart, and the blood has to travel further to remove the ink (don't quote me on that). I'm very happy with the final result. ANOTHER UPDATE (10/26/11): I've been in for 20 treatments and the tattoos are about 70% faded. Keep this in mind when deciding on what type of payment plan you're going with. The folks at Blink originally quoted me 10 treatments to remove the tattoos, and it's taken twice that long (and they're not gone). I am SO GLAD I went with the "12 payments and we'll treat you 'til they're gone" plan, or else I would have paid over $5,000 by now. The staff at Blink continues to be awesome. Would still highly recommend, just know that it's impossible to tell at an initial consultation how many treatments you'll need. UPDATE (12/27/10): I've now been in for 14 treatments. Tattoos are coming off slower than expected, but are fading gradually. I would highly advise going with the payment plan option (where you pay "x" number of payments up to a set amount, regardless of how many treatments it takes) or else paying the total up front as opposed to pay-as-you-go because there is just no way to determine how your skin will react to the laser and how long it will take. The staff at Blink is still wonderful as always. I've been in for 5 treatments. Agree with the previous poster, hurts like a SOB every single time, but Joanie is great, my appointment times are accurate, and I'm in and out in about 15 minutes. Plus, they offer 3 different payment plans to choose from. I've had great experiences here so far.

I've been a client of Siobhan's for 21 years now (I know, she looks like she's maybe )! If that…read moredoesn't speak to how good she is at what she does, then I don't know what would! I've had several laser hair removal treatments (I'm one of the lucky people with extremely stubborn hairs and a lot of them). I haven't had to do any touch ups and it's been over 8 years since I've finished treatments. I've been receiving tattoo removal treatments for a couple of years now (not nearly as consistently as I should though)! The two that she has been treating have faded considerably. Both were very old and very dark and I didn't have much hope that they would lighten very much. Boy was I wrong. They have faded so much that some of the line work has disappeared completely. Initially I went into it just hoping that she could lighten them up enough to have coverup pieces done over them. At this rate, they might actually be completely removed! Amazing. Today I just received my first IPL session to correct redness and some melasma. I expected it to be uncomfortable (it was not at all). She prepared me that it may feel like a minor sunburn afterwards and I may notice some redness and swelling. It's been several hours and I haven't experienced any of those things. Siobhan is basically magical at what she does. All of these treatments are an investment for sure, but laser treatments are definitely not where you want to skimp. ALCOS is competitively priced and I wouldn't go anywhere else. These women know what they are doing and are always professional and knowledgeable in every treatment that they offer.

I scheduled an appointment for IPL consultation. Prior to the consultation, I received numerous…read moretext messages, phone calls, and emails asking me questions that would be asked during a consultation. The provider determined I would not be a good candidate prior to treatment. To my dismay, I learned this clinic attempted to charge me an $85 cancellation fee for not following through with their "treatment" (extremely predatory practice, especially since I said I'd contact my dermatologist for medical advice before moving forward with any treatments). Seattle Aesthetic Laser is trying to falsely claim I "cancelled" my appointment, or didn't show up, when nothing could be further from the truth. I engaged in extensive consultative dialogue with the provider spanning the course of DAYS. The only way I could get out of the cancellation fee is by agreeing to a different form of treatment their clinic offers (surprise, surprise). Obviously, I told my card issuer to reject the charge as fraudulent, but on principle, a respectable clinic would never treat patients this way or try this scam.

She was so caring and meticulous in preparing my skin for both treatments that I had very little discomfort during the entire process, and my skin healed beautifully. It's only been a couple of weeks, but I already see a huge difference in my 60 YO skin. The texture is smoother, my pore size has diminished, and any hyperpigmentation I had is significantly lighter.

Linnell Dermatology may have just saved my life!…read more When I found an extremely troubling spot on my arm and worried it was cancer, UW Medical's response was a 1-month wait for a primary doctor for referral to a 2-3 month wait for a dermatologist. Instead of putting my life in UW's waitlist of three months for potential cancer to spread, I searched "emergency dermatologist" and was relieved when Linnell Dermatology created an immediate appointment 2-days later. Nicole Hurley was amazing. She conducted a full body scan which resulted in a biopsy of my arm during the appointment and even more important the notice of lesions on my face and the prescription of chemotherapy facial cream. Red heads, fair skinned and anyone whose had a bad sunburn as a child should go to Linnell Dermatology and Aesthetics. It is more than just cosmetic dermatology. They save lives!

After searching through the first page of my "in network" providers, I quickly got tired at the prospect of sifting through 50 more pages. So, I did what any reasonable person would do when it comes to finding a doc...I closed my eyes, threw a dart and picked a name. On a serious note, Dr. Friedmann was voted best doc in 2002, so I figured like wine, you can only get better with age. I went in, he did his thing, and I walked out. Overall, a pretty painless experience (aside from the blood draw). He's a nice, warm, fuzzy guy. Two thumbs up.

Lucky me, I ended up getting an appointment with Dr. Friedmann. He took so much time and care to try to understand the issue I was having despite my inability to articulate it. He made sure to understand my overall health, activity levels, recent travels and all of the other outside factors that might be causing my pain. I have recently felt so rushed by all of the doctors I've seen but Dr. Friedmann made me feel like I was his only patient. While we never got to the root cause of my pain, he made sure to rule out any possibly dangerous causes and provided me with a prescription and treatment plans to try. Then the most amazing thing happened...I got an unsolicited phone call from him 2 days after my appointment to see how I was doing!!! I'm feeling much better now thanks to Dr. Friedmann. I would absolutely recommend him to anyone in search of a smart, thoughtful and genuinely caring doctor.
