COVID Compliance: She is very strict about COVID compliance and I recommend downloading the Vagaro app so you can do your check in there. Parking: Street parking but there is a municipal parking lot a little up the road by East Street. If you have been following me for a while you know that I have had less than stellar (read: terrible) waxing experiences in New Haven County, so please come here. She books fast, and for good reason. Waxes here can last up to 6 weeks which is wild. She is very good if you have coarser hair and very patient. She is prompt and makes you feel welcomed and at ease. Waxes here can last up to 6 weeks which is wild. She is a great communicator and is easily accessible via phone (which if I weren't as shy as I am and had actually contacted her to see if she had openings I would have avoided the Lunchbox debacle of 2019 and the EWC debacle of 2020). The moral of the story is, don't cheat on your esthetician. I highly recommend.

Karolina and Nicole have created not just a beauty studio or a salon but a community. Lashes are done in the front room, it's big and open and sunny and lovely. There is a big window seat and you can look out onto state street while you're waiting. This is going to be the next big thing, book before they get too busy!

We called to ask if she would be able accommodate three of us on a Saturday afternoon, and she was able to squeeze us in with very short notice. The first thing I noticed is that her salon is very clean, bright and spacious, with no chemical smells at all. I loved all of the plants, flowers and cute elephant decor. There are a large selection of colors - I didn't really know what I wanted for my manicure and Rose helped me try on a few options before deciding on a base and design. She is thorough, skillful and detail-oriented. I loved how my nails turned out! Rose and her staff are super kind and personable as well. She really goes above and beyond for her customers and I can't recommend her salon enough!

She kept harshly pushing my face around even as I tried my best to stay still or hold my eyebrows tight.

When I tried to communicate this to her, she ended the session short and headed to the counter to take my payment. I definitely recommend against getting eyebrows done here.

I've been a Tommy's Tanning customer for years and always found it was a well run business which is what made me decide to try the wax center.

I was very nervous and she answered all of my questions and did a great job. I can't say it was painless but they use hard wax which made it less painful.
