I'm not a big consumer of beauty product (high end or otherwise) and really wasn't sure what I needed/wanted but came away set up for sucess with my new skin and make-up regimen. I have to say I LOVE this product (Shiseido) and am a convert. While it is expensive, I'm using less product with better results. There is plenty of parking, but it can get a little tight on the weekends and evenings when the adjoining businesses are busier.

None of the Japanese make-up is carried. There's also a variety of other hair care, lashes, etc. Staff was friendly enough. If you are looking for something specific, I would come here, but if you need something from the US line, there's no need.

So I went in for a waxing the other day and this man behind the counter said he was the resident…read moreesthetician.... I was shocked!!! I had never had a male wax me before and wasn't sure I felt comfortable to start. He boasted that he could wax me in 10 mins! I'm a betting woman so I said to him I would take him up on his offer. He smiled and told it would take him a minute to set up he room. I started to fill out the forms and I started to second guess myself. Before I was able to change my mind he was back and walked me into the room. I was at the point of no return! He told me where to lay down and where I could leave my clothes.... Everything was happening very fast all I know is, he stepped out of the room, I laid on the table, heard a knock on the door and he came back in. *Snap* *slap* of the rubber gloves then I felt the familiar warmth of the hot wax. He started asking me questions about my previous services no be fore I realized it my whole leg was covered in wax!!!!! I thought to my self is this man nuts!!!! What I have gotten my self into????? Oh well conversation time with the girls over wine...... He started laying down the strips on my legs and ripping off the wax. It was amazing how quickly he was done with my legs and so thorough! Highly recommend going to him! I was done in less then 10 mins!!!!! -J

I typically prefer going to the Pike & Rose or The Mall locations. However, today my daughters needed to run in and I decided to stop by despite my usual experience. I want to take a moment to acknowledge one of the sales associates, Ashley. After three other associates walked past us without engaging, Ashley came over, greeted us warmly, and made us feel welcome. Her kindness and personal attention really stood out and made our visit enjoyable. This isn't meant as a complaint about the location overall, just a shout-out to Ashley for going above and beyond. Thank you for making our experience special.

The lady behind the wig counter was tidying up and asked if I needed help finding anything. She was pleasant, smiled and was welcoming. I am very indecisive so I was taking pictures of everything I liked, so I took a lot of pictures. Nobody bothered disturbed my shopping experience. When I checked out, I did ask for the colored gel for the roots and the the young lady at the check-out said they were all out. She did not try to look any further to see if it was someplace else. After walking around, I found a whole rack of the gels with colors and I showed her and she just giggled because she was clueless. Bottom line, this place has tons of hairstyling products and hair as well for braids, crochet, wigs, quick-weaves, everything and all textures and colors.

Also, the prices have gone up and products I can find elsewhere for a few dollars cheaper. At first I was impressed with their product supply and though customer service wasn't helpful, it wasn't particularly offensive. The last few times I've been in there, there has been an armed guard which IS outrageous and offensive! A whole store selling as its sole revenue stream Black hair care products but yet hires an armed guard with a bulletproof vest and tactical gear looking like a paratrooper to patrol patrons.. The audacity and disrespect is outrageous!!! Other reviewers who commented on being followed are absolutely correct. This has now happened to me two times. Today the products I needed were right up front, a few feet away from the front door. This armed guard who was posted at the front entrance had the nerve to leave his "post" to come to where I was to monitor me. I was outraged! I will not return and will tell anyone to avoid this place.

This is not because they aren't busy but because the office staff does an awesome job of scheduling. The issues that bring you to a plastic surgeon are often times very sensitive matters and I really appreciated the fact that I wasn't waiting with 10 other clients. Once you meet Dr. Vincent you quickly understand why everyone likes him so much. He is caring and attentive, calm and comforting and he just makes you relax. I have several friends who have used Dr. Vincent so I've seen firsthand his excellent work. It didn't take me long to decide that Dr. Vincent was going to be "my go to man." Dr. Vincent's office staff mimics the culture he has created and everyone is kind, caring, and professional. I have used Dr. Vincent several times and have referred many friends to him and everyone has been as pleased as I am.

I highly recommend Dr. Vincent and his medical team!

As I told Kimi... "I think I'm at the point in a Gay man's life where he becomes an amateur…read morecolorist" I decided it was a good time to start dying my own hair... cause I had it done a couple of times in the past month or so and that... well that B is expensive So I started watching YouTube tutorials on how to dye one's own hair and almost all of the stylists were saying not to use boxed dyes. So then I went to the internet machine to do regular searches on just that... and they confirmed the YouTube peoples opinions. So how does one dye like a professional stylist. You gotta get professional products Specifically - developer - permanent hair dye -... and booster ? Also a bowl and a brush and gloves if you don't have them. So I went to the Sally's in Tyson's area and they were out of the specific color I wanted in the dye brand I wanted. Professional hair dye is rated on a 1-10 scale. 1 being the darkest and 10 being the lightest. I was going for darker My hairstylist dyed my hair a 5... but all hair dye apparently lightens after a month or so. So I liked it a lot when it was just dyed... but then it faded to a lighter color which I didn't like as much. In any event. I went with a mix of a 4nn, 5nn, and a developer. I opted for the more natural hair dye called Inspired by nature. It was without ammonia. Apparently the nn means it penetrates the hair follicle a bit more. And the developer I used was a 20 level. So... I dyed it myself last night... Shockingly after about 20 minutes of the hair dye in... my hair was turning pretty darn dark. And also this tar like substance start appearing on my scalp.... I think I put in too much dye. Like I said... "amateur colorist". So then I freaked out and washed it out immediately. Hoping I just didn't dye my entire scalp dark dark brown. Lucky me! It worked! And it worked well. Big reveal at the Yelpies tomorrow ;) In any event, I gave this Sally's 5 stars cause the woman there was the most helpful ever. She asked if I needed any help and I instinctively was like... no I'm good... and then I was like... actually one question. Then I asked that question followed up by another... by another... by another. I was like... I must seem crazy cause I just said I didn't need any help... yet I needed ALL the help. The woman had short pinkish hair and was so pleasant and ready to assist. I even asked her about the sample pieces of hair they had and her opinion on dying my hair - mix of 4 and 5 or just 4. I was thinking just 4 and she like my hairstylist agreed it should be a mix ... or like a 4.5. Would go back here. Would seek her help again. Definitely a great customer experience all around.
