    Thank you to the wonderfully kind and sweet ladies at WEST Salon By Leah! My mom was recently going…read morethrough high dose radiation and had a large, uncomfortable catheter sitting just above her pectoral muscle. She had not been able to wash her hair in 5 days. We tried to wash her hair at home, but every position we tried struck her with severe pain. We decided to take a shot at West Salon By Leah to see if they could fit her in for a wash. Not only were they happy to fit her in their busy schedule, but they did it free of charge. I can't thank these ladies enough for putting a smile on my mom's face. It's the little things in life that makes others feel good on the inside & out, especially in a time of pain. On another note, I saw a friend of mine walking out and her hair looked fabulous! I will be going back to get my hair done :-)!

    My first experience with Leah was good for a highlight. I went in yesterday for a hair cut. I…read moreshowed Leah the attached pictures of the bob I wanted which I've had in the past. I ended up with a significantly shorter cut that was so thinned out I feel like I have so much disconnection in my hair. The back is so short in parts that I can hardly grab it with my fingers, let alone straighten it. I also have naturally curly hair so I can only imagine the nightmare of how I'm going to deal with those pieces once wet and styling until they're long enough to deal with. I also want to preface, my hair was well past my shoulders, very health and had no face framing or short layers when I walked in so it should have been pretty straightforward. I was shocked when I left the salon yesterday and even more shocked at the lack of accountability in Leah's response in the attached text. I feel like I spent almost $100 to get my hair butchered while also ending up as an emotional dumping ground throughout the entire appointment.

My favorite…read morenail tech left my prior nail salon, so I decided to try Lavish Nails & Spa due to their high Yelp rating. My tech, Lisa, did a good job on my pedicure and was super personable while doing so. In fact, Lisa with her quiet demeanor talked me into a manicure also. Lavish Nails & Spa in Austin, TX, is super clean with massage chairs that manage to massage most of your body...very relaxing. The salon has a number of service offerings including massages, waxing, nail dips and acrylic nails. The salon is located off Capital of Texas Hwy & Hwy 222 right next door to Waterloo Ice House. The interior is bright, well-lit, and inviting. My experience at Lavish Nails & Spa was good one.

    Writing for someone else for anonymous reasons…read more Called in for 2 people and they said it was good. Then tried to add in a 3rd person and they said they can for sure do that as well. The third person came in 2 minutes later and did not get their service/package at all. Completely lied to us and gave the third person 0 updates while she was waiting. The third person ended up waiting over 45 minutes and just left. This place over promised and under delivers. Better off going somewhere. Next time you go, they might not even have a spot for you. Very very poor service.

    I visited this place because I was curious to see how a 15 minute brazilian would go, but it really…read moredidn't impress me. The service was ok, not bad but not great. Wax hurt like a freaking b$%^&. I don't know what they use, but they had to go over the same areas over and over again and it was PAINFUL. Yes, it was quick, but if you don't have good pain tolerance, don't even bother coming here because it will be the worst experience of your life. And this is coming from someone who believes they have relatively high pain tolerance. I can see how a short brazilian wax that saves you time can cost more, but the pain was not worth the extra cost. I ended up with bumps and a really sensitive and inflamed ta-ta afterwards. I will probably not be back. I will give more than 1 star because they were true to their timing.

    First visit: I look…read morelike an extra in Planet Of The Apes, as you all know so well. Decided it was time to evolve into two separate eyebrows. Brazilia took my epic unibrow and made it into two much smaller caterpillars. They did such a good job that I was barely recognized at this week's Mensa meeting. Second visit: So, I was asked to star in a porno movie. Normally, I'd have said no, as it conflicts with my religion (Non-Denominational Catholic Moonie Mormon, with a side of Muslimish Buddhistic Hindu), but when I heard it was local, I figured, why not help the economy. And, to be honest, when I learned the production featured plus-sized women and midgets (interestingly, that's not un-PC; apparently the term Little People is frowned upon in the industry), I had no choice. I am all about Keeping Austin Normal, and supporting diversity. I said yes, to cheers and high fives from the fluffers' room. "Kyley Wadd, your time has come!", said the director. "But wait for my signal, and stay out of her spotlight." All was fine until he insisted that I "shave my package". I got a little queasy, uneasy, and even somewhat skeezy, muh neezy. He said it was standard practice; "it'll make your johnson look tall and lonesome". But I was uncertain. Hitchcock (the director's real name) smiled and handed me a free coupon to what he called "the hippest hottest most 0/1 reviewed happenin'est high-five slappin'est waxin' joint in town. Now go wax your joint." I entered the spa sheepishly (by which I mean that I had more wool than the New Zealand sweater industry). But not to fear! Everyone was super cool and knew just what was up, or soon to be. They really made me feel at home, and when I heard about the 15% discount for writing a positive review on yelp, I regretted having a free coupon. Then I did the math and felt better. They laid me on the table and strapped my limbs down. "For your protection." Sensing my alarm, they soothed my fevered brow with cool washcloths scented with Oil Of Ofay. They turned on the Barry White 8-track I'd brought. Then they poured on the wax. It was hot. My god, it was hot! I yelped. "Do I get 15% off for that?" I asked. They just smiled and said, "This will only hurt for a second." Then they pulled. Guys, let me give you a little tip (said the moyle): Hold on to your scrotal issue during the procedure. Because besides the pain, I now have a sac that sags past my knees. And while I do have "balls like Wilt Chamberlain" (not my quote), they hardly fill out the scene, if you know what I mean. Imagine Morgana the Kissing Bandit at age 124, and you'll get the picture. However, there is a happy ending. (No, it's not that kind of spa.) When Hitch saw me the next day, he merely smiled and affirmed that I would fit into the production even better. "Keepin' It Weird, son!" he chortled, wrapping my sac around my neck like a scarf. The plus-sized gals were impressed, the little people (sorry, "midgets") were envious, and the fluffers took shots on their cell phones to send to something called youtube (?). The movie was made and frankly I could not be prouder. Brazilia is everything all of these other reviewers claim. And so much more. It is so good that most folks who come here swear that "it's the only place in Austin worth reviewing!" It only hurts when I pee.
