Athenian Candle Company has been my go to for various needs for at least 10 years if not longer…read more They are a local business in Greektown with lots of knowledge and the most sincere customer service team. Sometimes I go there with a purpose, like, I need a St Francis and a St Anthony candle, or maybe I need some Morocco oil. Other times I am a complete disaster and I go in and they ask If I need any help, to which I say yes, and tell them my issue. The staff always knows exactly what I need and is more than willing to help. Oftentimes they will offer you a blessing at checkout - Say yes and accept with gratitude. The blessing will bring you goodness and peace and probably whatever else you need. At the beginning of the Athenian Candles gives out catalogues and Christian calendars with purchase. Both are wonderful gifts. The catalogue has a lot of information about products you may not have been aware of. Parking right in front can be tough; it is Greektown. if you go a block or two away you will find likely a free spot.

What a really cool experience!…read more Private session for my friend and I to create and customize a scented soy candle. Personalized attention, great explanations and assistance. After measuring and mixing we picked the perfect vessel for our candle to solidify and were handed a label to name it. We were also signed up for the perfume class. There were fifteen of us present, good energy, nice vibe. It was like a science lab of scents and we worked our magic. We were instructed to choose up to six oils to mix into a beaker. We played around with the scents until it smelled like something we wanted to wear. We were directed to shelves of pretty perfume bottles; some included with the price of the class and upgrades that were not. My pretty pink bottle was an upgrade. When we received our perfumer's alcohol, we poured into our bottles, gave a little shake and came up with a clever name for our signature scent. I was really hoping the owner would pop in. It's good to know that we can refill each perfume bottle and candle jar at a discounted price. I named my candle "Priceless" because the combined scents remind me of my travel experiences. My chosen name for my perfume is "Journey" because that's exactly where each note takes you.

The female sales associate was less than friendly. Didn't seem excited or cared that I saw their business on social media and drove 4 hours to see it. The other guy was helpful though. I was expecting ALL travel sizes though, not regular sizes too. That's fine. It was fun to look at. I felt obligated to purchase something. I felt like it was really overpriced though. A travel sized bottle of Kérastase for $20.99? No thanks! I'll buy the full size from the company and get that for free. Also, the store is very, very, small. It was nice to see it, but I highly doubt I'd ever go back.

If you've ever been inside a beauty supply store, you'll find this to be a poor imitation. For…read moreexample, they have an extremely narrow selection items of like clips, bobby pins, brushes, combs, scissors, and curlers/curling rods. And they're so overpriced. Moreover, I saw few, if any, wigs, makeup, styling tools, and hair dryers, or they were not prominently placed. The dye section consists of small shelf in the back with 1 or 2 brands, all permanent. Also the travel beauty supplies that they advertise on social media were nothing special. There were a lot of drugstore brands. Beauty supply stores are generally known for their variety and lower prices. Sally's and Target, you pretty much have all the same brands at a better price. Also nobody greeted or acknowledged me, except for a tight smile from a woman standing near the front. I was the only customer at the time. Another employee was trying to stock items in the back of the store where the travel beauty supplies are. It was awkward having someone work around you in such a narrow space, but not really acknowledging you, and they seemed kind of annoyed.

There were a few things I considered purchasing, but decided against it after seeing the prices. I left empty handed because of this, but it was still fun sewing everything. I would visit again if I'm in the area. The only down sides were that the staff could be friendlier and I did have a moment of feeling watched and followed. They also allow pets, which I know is pretty typical in this area, but I'm not a fan of.

It was my first time making candles and the whole experience was so much fun and went so smoothly, it was actually quite soothing overall.

Evie is the cutest person who genuinely cares about every pour, and will always suggest the best candle for you and your family. I used to always have a headache whenever I lit candles (which made it hard for someone who loves candles and scents), but ever since I started using Evie's candles, I haven't heard a headache and I haven't been able to go back to my old candles. You absolutely need to check Evie out if you live in the area, and if you're not, I believe she's launching her online store soon so STAY TUNED.
