On Friday, 9/9/22. I made an appointment online for the following Friday, 9/16/22 at 12:00 PM. I received the usual initial text and email confirmation as soon as I booked the appointment. On Thursday, 9/15/22 at 7:56 AM I received a text asking me to confirm my appointment by replying. I replied as soon as I saw the text on my work break at 11:17 AM to confirm. At 12:05 PM I received a text back stating Uni k was looking forward to seeing me for my scheduled appointment the following day. One hour and 20 minutes later, I received a text stating that due to no confirmation my appointment was given to someone else. Imagine my surprise! I immediately call the office to figure out what is going on and Paola, who states she is the front desk manager tells me I did not confirm my appointment and therefore it was given to someone else. I explain that that is definitely not the case since I have the confirmation text from Uni k directly stating my appointment is set and they "look forward to seeing me." Paola basically tells me that's too bad and the best she can do is give me a different appointment. I explain that I made the appointment at a specific time one week in advance because that is when I can make it. She insists it is my fault for not confirming and offers a discount for my next visit. This adds insult to injury because I have no issue following their confirmation protocols, booking appointments, or paying for the service. A discount won't correct this situation. All I want is to come in for the appointment I scheduled a week in advance. This is the worst customer service experience I have ever had and it is extremely disappointing as I have been a customer of this location for years and of other Uni k wax locations for years before that. Paola's interactions with me were unprofessional and disrespectful. Her tone was rude, dismissive and exasperated. To be transparent, I've attached pictures of the text exchange with this review so that you can judge for yourself.

UNSANITARY and GAVE ME A TERRIBLE INFECTION. I have been getting my eyebrows waxed on and off here for a few years with only a minor breakout after each time. I have a few pesky hairs that grow from my chin that I was annoyed with and decided to get waxed. Worst decision of my life. I came down with a fever two days later, then the worst rash I have ever had. It is clear they do not use fresh wax for each person and G-d only knows the bacteria that is being applied with the wax. Please see my picture attached and STAY AWAY FROM THIS PLACE.

Love love love this Unikwax location. Can't believe anyone would give it less than 5 stars! I can always get last minute Appointments during my lunch hour. The receptionist is so friendly. Cecilia is usually who I go with. She knows her stuff and always gives me awesome tips. :-)

It's been a while, but I remember going here as a first-time customer, when they were offering a…read morefree deep bikini wax in addition to having another service. I arrived on time for my brows, but the technician was late taking me back to the room. So late, in fact, that she told me to get off the table before my free bikini wax because, "my next client is here." Typical South Florida BS customer service. She took ME back late and the next client must have been a friend or something. As I mentioned, it's been a while so hopefully staff is learned about customer service since then.

Not wanting to be difficult I said OK, after proceeding to pay midway through transaction, I was told I had to Zelle for payment. After zelling receptionist, then clarified the payment I just sent for Zelle was for tip and not for the service. At this point, I was annoyed and found on their website the advertisement where it shows first wax free. She says OK but can't do anything about the fact that I just tipped 50% of the service. The company should really find themselves someone who is knowledgeable of the promotions offered by the company itself and can focus on one customer at a time upon checkout instead of trying to answer the phone and schedule other appointments while doing so.

I got gel x and some of the nails she used were too big, which I told my nail tech but she insisted they were right. My fingers hurt for the first week I had the manicure because of the size, even after I tried to release the pressure by filing the nails. I'm not sure if they know how to do gel x at this salon.

I have been hopping from nail salon to nail salon to find my nail home for the last eight years. And this is it. If you're someone pressed for time that wants a good job and a very short amount of time .. then this place is not for you. In my time there I witnessed every tech working to perfection. Everyone was sooo incredibly sweet and kind. And sooooo peaceful, because usually I feel like nail salons are so hectic due to the turnaround and wanting to get you in and out so they can get to the next client. Leyanis!!! She went above and beyond, I have never left with more perfect looking nails in my entire 34 years of living. I even accidentally brushed my hair and ruined one of my nails in the process of them curing, and for the first time in my entire adult life, she is the ONLY nail tech that did not get frustrated. 100000 stars out of ten.

I was desperately looking for a new look and a new hair place. Of course I turned to my fellow…read moreyelpers to find the best salon in my area. After looking around different neighborhoods I found BASE. The first thing I noticed about this salon is that they have appointments available to book online. This is SO convenient to those who work weird hours. I feel it also works with the business because they don't have to be answering the phone constantly. I initially booked an appointment to have a consultation which was free of charge. I showed up and was greeted immediately by name. They knew me from my appointment which was impressive. I then met Ashley. So sweet and thorough. She gave me an estimate on how much my hair was going to be. She asked me what I really wanted for my hair in my dream world. I told her and she told me she would try and make it happen. I returned about two weeks later to finally get it done. WOW WOW WOW. It took many hours to achieve what I wanted but it happened. Ashley and her whole team was so amazing. They made my hair look like it had never looked before. They even offered to come back if I wasn't satisfied with my hair two week guarantee. I have no reason to go back. My hair looks so beautiful and I am so happy. Thank you Ashley and team for the great service and HAIR! :)

Ashley and her assistant and wonderful, professional, and easy to communicate with. Besides being a regular customer for hair color, I have had extensions and many haircuts. They use the highest quality hair extensions and literally no one knew I wore them for over a year. I am a red head client & red is one of the hardest colors to pull off. Ashley is literally the best red specialist I have ever gone to. I literally recommend her and her staff to everyone.

Exceptional Laser and Eyebrow Threading Services at The Parlour!…read more I recently had the pleasure of visiting The Parlour for their laser and eyebrow threading services, and I must say, I am beyond impressed! From start to finish, my experience at with Audrey was nothing short of amazing. First and foremost, the staff at Parlour are incredibly friendly, welcoming, and knowledgeable. They made me feel comfortable and at ease throughout the entire process. The laser treatment was performed with utmost precision and care, ensuring effective results without any discomfort. The technician was well-trained and experienced, answering all my questions and addressing any concerns I had. When it came to eyebrow threading, I was blown away by the level of skill and attention to detail. The beautician took the time to understand my desired shape and meticulously shaped my eyebrows to perfection. I was extremely pleased with the end result, as they looked natural and beautifully defined. Furthermore, the ambiance of The Parlour was soothing and relaxing. The clean and well-maintained salon created a serene environment that enhanced the overall experience. The hygiene protocols followed by the staff were commendable, giving me confidence in their commitment to customer safety. Overall, I cannot recommend The Parlour enough for their exceptional laser and eyebrow threading services. The professionalism, expertise, and results-oriented approach of their staff truly set them apart. Whether you're looking for laser treatments or eyebrow threading, The Parlour is the place to go. Trust me, you won't be disappointed! Thank you, all, for the amazing experience and for helping me look and feel my best. I will definitely be returning for all my future beauty needs!
