I also noticed that they had a tiny bit more merchandise for Pochaco, Hangyodon, Keroppi, & Badtz Maru in comparison to what I've seen at the Westfield Santa Anita.

I rather take my business elsewhere now that there are SO MUCH MORE Asian skincare options in SGV now, and there is really no need to shop at a place that treats customers poorly. I have had decent experiences in the past with some workers who genuinely are helpful, but the past few times have been terrible (some mention it's towards the night, but I've had similar experiences during the day). Unfortunately, most of the workers are EXTREMELY rude and dismissive. If there are multiple, they will be chatting amongst themselves. If it's just one, they are usually on their phone. They do not acknowledge you, and they make you feel terrible if you have to ask a question. Personally, I am someone who do not mind if there is no greeting or if they come up to ask if you need assistance, but if I am only here to grab-and-go what I know and need... they still give you an attitude! I do not get it because *I* try to be nice and polite, but why are they so rude? Takashima used to have good control over the Asian beauty space in SGV as a trusted retailer, but SO many stores have opened up over the years, major commercial retailers have now started to carry affordable Asian beauty/skincare options, and online is much more accessible now. As someone who purchases quite a bit of Asian skincare and make-up and always recommend friends places, this is not on my list anymore.

I came in for downsizing my two piercings after about 2 months since the initial piercing. I'm…read morehappy to report the appointment went smoothly and apparently everything is healing really well, which of course allowed for the downsizing to happen. Kat did the downsizing procedure this time and she was just as cool to work with as the first time I saw her. Kat's great because she makes you feel so comfortable and she really takes her time to explain what she's doing every step of the way. Switching out the helix post was nice and easy, the flat was a little more tender and a tiny bit painful (it got bumped a few more times during healing so far compared to the helix due to its location), but it calmed down after about 20 minutes, so it was not a big deal at all. Kat also told me despite the bumps/snags the flat experienced, the piercing was still lying perpendicular the way it was initially pierced, which is good news. Downsizing costs $15 per post and $10 for the service + tax. You get to keep your old posts too. Best of all, just like last time, they sterilize everything. It's now been a couple of days since downsizing and everything feels and looks great! Looking forward to these piercings healing up nicely, I can't wait! I still highly recommend JuL Head Piercing, they're great!

Jul Head reminds me of Maria Tash but a distant grunge chic cousin who likes a pop of color and…read morecrazy geometric designs. They do piercings here. Walk-in and appointments available. Apparently no navel or nipple piercing here per their website. Jul is a more luxury shop due to the many unique designs and offerings. A lot of offerings from BVLA. That being said-- you get what you pay for. The items are mostly some sort of 14k gold or higher. I'm not sure if they have stainless steel as an option. That being said, they have gorgeous pieces that you probably won't find elsewhere. I went to a piercing shop on Melrose on the West side and their offerings can't even compare to the pieces at Jul. So if you're willing to spend 100-700 bucks for some fine jewelry this is definitely the place. I saw a gold Chinese dragon. Definitely would look cute as a flat. Again-- pieces you can't find elsewhere. I had a thread less piece that got stuck. I wanted to switch to a non-thread less piercing for my flat. They were able to get it off easily and sized me for a new earring easily. Parking in the garage on the street next to Starbucks is the easiest spot I'd recommend.

It made her shopping experience uncomfortable and wanted to leave immediately. I did not know she felt this way. She said she will no longer shop their in the afternoon only mornings because it seems in the mornings they don't make her feel this way. I guess it depends who is working at the time. The cash register girl, was friendly. It was the person who was working the floor that made her feel this way. The pants I purchased were on sale, and they seem to be good quality so far.

Other than a couple of their staff, I was the only male present, and the women shoppers were going crazy for this stuff. Holy cow, that was an experience! The tent was set up in the back parking lot and contained racks and racks of brightly colored clothing (blouses, pants, dresses, etc.), swimsuits, and shoes. Shoppers were even trying stuff on right out in the open in the back of the tent...it was an experience! Trina Turk's clothing style has a cool vibe, and the clothing is all brightly colored. We have a second home in the Palm Springs area, and their fashions go great with that midcentury modern/contemporary look. Regular prices are what I would consider very expensive, but this tent sale had stuff marked down to incredibly reasonable prices. From what I gather reading other Yelp reviews, this is an outlet store. In addition to clothing, their stores also sell accessories, books, and décor items for midcentury modern/contemporary homes.

Homage carries a lot of work by independent artists and artisans, including fine jewelry and ceramics. They also have a very large collection of fragrances in the forms of perfumes, room sprays and reed diffusers. The last time I was here was with an out of town friend who was really tempted to buy a handmade pair of gloves. She ended up not getting them and called me regretting her decision. So, this place is great for worn accessories (scarves, jewelry, gloves...etc.) and beautiful housewares. The prices are maybe a bit high, but the quality of the goods is pretty high. So, while I much more rarely buy from Homage than Retreat or Gold Bug, I would still recommend a look around.
