I love Denise she is truly great at waxing eyebrows, she has a up-beat personality and really makes your eyebrows look purrfection. I

have gotten so many compliments on my eyebrows when I go to her.

• Pros: Great Eyebrow wax!
• Cons: It is pretty pricey.

do not recommend

I had a haircut here with Nina, who is very young and sweet, but just out of high school. I was surprised when I got the bill. She gave me a gloss, I did not ask for. Lots of upcharges. The funny thing is, she gave me a color that was the same as hers. It looks good on Nina because she is so young, but on me it was very unnatural. The prices was way too high for her experience and level. The cut was average. She did not listen to what I asked for, but was very sweet. I thought the hidden charges were misleading.

I had an eyebrow and bikini wax. Eyebrow was very disappointing. The shape was uneven and the ends were waxed off, so now I have to pencil it in. Very disappointing. Some people look good with penciled eyebrows, I have oily skin, so it looks greasy with fake brows.

• Pros: Nina is sweet girl. they sell plastic jewlery at the front counter
• Cons: avoid waxing, watch for upcharges, overpriced for what you get, front desk are rude

poor quality, overpriced, wierd staff, owner doesn't care

I had my hair cut/colored by this 18 year old there and they charged around $200 for someone who was just out of school! I got a better haircut at HAIR CUTTERY on BROADWAY!.

Then I had an eyebrow & lip wax. The first time, they burned my brows. It took about a week for the red to go away, after the skin peeled off. The second time, this girl Julie didn't know how to shape them and didn't trim them. She also waxed them too thin, very unnatural. Think Joan Crawford. The salon is nice inside. The front desk are wierd. I called the manager/owner, but she never bothered to call back. Emily (the older highly strung one at the front desk), wouldn't answer my questions.

Frankly, if your spending $25 plus tip for brows and $15 for lip waxing, which is overpriced to begin with, you would think you would get someone who knows what they are doing. Or the very least, the owner would care that you had a bad experience, and apologize. They are just right in their own minds and the customer doesn't matter. I'm taking my business elsewhere. I wouldn't recommend them at all. It's very disheartening because they seem like a professional business from the outside and all the fancy advertising. I DO NOT RECOMMEND.

• Pros: the shop inside is pretty
• Cons: bad haircut, overpriced, burned my skin waxing, mis-shapen brows

WORST WAXING EVER

by badwax at Citysearch

I had to write after noticing a person who works a Salon Blue writing fake reviews. I have been a client of the salon and the spa for about 3 years now, and they had this great technician, GENEVIVRE, who quit. I got passed off, without asking, so someone whom I hight doubt is trained or licensed. . The women was fast and efficient. A little two fast and efficient. She thinned out my brows so much. I looked like Brooke Shields, now I look like Pamela Anderson except shorter. It was so bad, I had to go to another salon and get them to FI X IT!! Plus they wont tell you where the girls are licensed!!! They are so secretive and I highly doubt these people are licensed. The icing on the cake: The front staff are rude and "fake". This is not LA, but these ladies act like it. I felt so uncomfortable and horrified at the results. I would never recomment them to any of my girlfriends and I have heard two professionals in the beauty business complain about the salon and warn me. DO NOT GO!!

• Pros: Fast. Too fast.
• Cons: Scary unlicensed, untrained technicians
