Skin-Tonic is such a gem!…read more I always look forward to my regular facials. Highly recommend. Excellent service.

First I would like to start of by the saying the energy in the room was great I really did feel at…read morepeace. I came to charm after struggling with my skin for a full year, after having amazing skin. I had tried everything and nothing seemed to be working. I decided to give facials a try to seek professional help. Before this I had done extensive research on skin and like I mentioned previously had my hands on multiple products but nothing was the right fit. The extractions were extremely painful which alarmed me instantly but I had never gotten a facial and didn't know any better. Extractions may be discomforting but should never be painful. Also when doing extractions you're supposed to gently extract until all puss, then blood and finally when the congestion is clear you will see a clear fluid. This clear fluid is called "serous fluid" it's important to clear the sac until you see this fluid or else the sac will fill up again and cause even more inflammation. Therefore defeating the purpose of doing an extraction in the first place. I don't believe this protocol was followed because I was left with painful swollen pimples on my forehead that weren't visible before my visit. Which left me feeling even more insecure. Trusting someone with my skin was a huge step for me and I am dissatisfied and disappointed. I understand results may not have been instant but I shouldn't have been in pain and left with more skin imperfections then when I laid down. I don't believe the right procedure was followed. I do plan to follow up with someone who may be more knowledgeable and hopefully find something that works for my skin. In response to charm: I understand extractions can cause discomfort but they were making me almost want to cry and they should never be that painful extractions should have some discomfort but there should never be pain. you also didn't drain the entire inflammation which left me with more pimples and more scarring due to how harsh your technique was . When doing extractions you were supposed to drain the pus and then all blood until the oil is present and you did not do that which left the pimple even more inflamed. My cheeks were permanently scarred and I still have to seek professional help to get that prepared due to what you did.

I would say if the ladies in the business are not comfortable waxing guys…read more Then they should take it of their menu I went to get my legs waxed and although it was pretty painless and went smooth and inside of my thighs are hairy af and when I asked if she could do it she said I don't feel comfortable going so deep knowing that they do offer men's bikini waxing So overall I wouldn't recommend this to any guy Funny part is I'm gay So yeah Half ass job and female leg waxing is 78 where men's is 90 so if I'm paying extra money why do I have extra hair left !!!!!!!

I am in DC temporarily for cancer treatment so I wanted to find a place to get my lashes done…read morebecause it's the one (vain) thing that makes me feel better right now. This place got good reviews so I booked an appointment at the Eastern Market location since it's near the place I'm staying. The night prior, they called and asked if I'd be willing to go to the Dupont Circle location instead so that the technician could fit in more appointments. It was annoying, but not a huge deal. I was getting lash removal & a new set of classic/hybrid lashes. I've been getting eyelash extensions for 13 years and this is by far the worst experience I've ever had. They were thin, whispy, pre-made fans that were poorly glued onto only some of my lashes. They started falling off almost immediately, and there were visible white clumps of glue that a friend pointed out because she thought I had crumbs on my eyes. One week later when I went to another eyelash studio, they couldn't even tell I had any extensions on until they put me under the lights. I would've been better off just curling my own lashes & using mascara because mine are thicker & longer than whatever they used. I've never had such poor quality.

The service was good, I just think they could pay more attention to details. Like i had to point out my nail lengths weren't the same, and some of my nails have some random specks of dust or whatever in them that they could've gotten out of the gel if they didn't cure it and polish over it again. The nail shapes aren't as clean as I like them, so I will probably file them a little to clean them up. Small things, but they make the experience for me when it comes to nails. I think I would visit again, overall.

Magdalen is absolutely amazing! This was my very first time getting a Brazilian wax, and I was…read morehonestly so nervous walking in. I had read so many horror stories online about pain, irritation, even skin being removed so I was preparing myself for the worst. But from the moment I met Magdalen, she completely calmed my nerves. She's incredibly warm, professional, and downright hilarious, which made the experience so much easier to get through. She walked me through the process, made sure I was comfortable the entire time, and the best part she's fast without making you feel rushed. I didn't experience any of the nightmare scenarios I was bracing for. No pain, no trauma, and definitely no regrets. I left feeling smooth, confident, and honestly wondering why I didn't do this sooner . I'll definitely be back and recommending her to all my friends!

I've been coming to this medi spa regularly for 3yrs now. I first learned of the services through…read moremy Dermatologist, Anita Henderson as this spa has two locations: In the MD office in Columbia & In a private space in Ellicott City. I've gotten services in both locations. In three years, I've had: laser hair removal, dermaplanning, microdermabrasion, facials, Vi Peels, Microneedling, eyebrow threading and Brazilian waxing. Sonia is both owner and my medical Esthetician and Tischna her sister works as Esthetician and master waxer. Coming here in conjunction with seeing my dermatologist, my skin has NEVER been better. The spa is clean and well maintained. In fact, they just remodeled and now carry Aveedo products. The staff is professional and thorough. Your next appointment is indicated on your receipt, via a text message and a confirmation phone call. They are always running package deals which really helps as far as saving coins. Although they offer tons of products, they don't upsell or push products on you... they don't need to. The services speak for themselves and the products they sell are what they use. So, if you like your results, you are more inclined to purchased them to continue the regimen at home. They will often host open houses to present new services & products. Sonia often attends seminars to ensure she is on top of her craft and is offering her clients the best that's available. She's had quite a few articles written on her and has received awards. I've compared prices here with other spas in the area and unlike other spas where they will make a service a la carte (unbeknownst to you), it's a complete service here and it's much cheaper. So if you want high quality spa services from a leader in her craft, come here. You won't be disappointed.
