If I could give 0 stars, I truly would. This has been the…read moreworst and most stressful experience I've ever had with any business. I trusted Ideal Image with more than $6,092.56 of my hard-earned money money I spent two full years saving because they promised me "amazing results," "life-changing improvement," and "professional care." Instead, I received misleading information, pressure, and treatments that did not work at all. Laser Hair Removal I completed almost all my sessions. I only had two small sessions left, but the results were almost nonexistent. The hair still grows back nearly the same. Every time I showed them photos proving nothing was improving, they kept telling me to "keep going," instead of acknowledging the problem. Credits Instead of Real Help When I asked about my payments, they said my money was "already used" and that everything was turned into credits in their system. Credits for WHAT? for treatments that had no benefit? for services I never asked for? These credits stay with them, not with me. They trap your money so you can never get it back. Microneedling They convinced me to buy 3 sessions and promised major improvement. After the first session, I had: no peeling no reaction no change no improvement When I asked for a refund, I was told: "Ideal Image does not give refunds." Then they tried to pressure me into switching my money into other services I didn't want. Fake Refunds & Pressure to Pay More They kept pushing me to pay an additional $1,300, promising "you will see results later." I trusted them again and again absolutely nothing improved. The Worst Part: There was no record of my file After I complained and demanded a refund, I contacted HFD, the third-party finance company they use. When I called HFD myself, they confirmed: There is no account affiliated with my name (Sara Majali). This makes it look like I never made any payments at all even though I paid everything in full. This is extremely suspicious, unethical, and feels intentional. "Refunds" That Are NOT Refunds The receipts they gave me list "refunds," but these are NOT real refunds. They are only internal credits inside their own system. I did not receive even $1 back to my bank. Not a single dollar. High Prices, Pressure, and Manipulative Behavior Their prices are extremely high, they push nonstop, and they make you feel obligated to buy things you never wanted. When I asked for my original receipt, they printed a different version to make it seem like nothing wrong happened. No professional or honest business behaves like this. I Will Not Stop Fighting for Every Dollar People work hard for their money. Mine didn't grow on a tree. I will keep fighting until every dollar is returned, and I hope others think twice before trusting this company. Invoices Attached I attached the exact invoices that Ideal Image themselves provided to me, which clearly show: charges "refunds" that are only internal credits no money actually returned I am sharing this experience so others can be aware and protect themselves from going through the same stress and financial loss.

Wah I'm sad to write this post but I think it's really important to discuss. I recently moved to…read moreSeattle and wanted to find my "home salon". Conveniently it's nearby and I decided to give it a shot. The first time I came here for a mani, it was a fairly good experience. Nothing fancy and very straight to the point. Kathy was friendly and I figured I'd give it another go since the work and pricing was fairly reasonable. However, I'm sad to write about my second experience :( I was hoping to get Kathy again but I was paired with another nail technician. I'm hoping it was just "a bad day" for her but the moment I walked in, the energy was heavy and even a bit aggressive lol. I've never felt so tense throughout the entire session, which I was hoping to be relaxing. She made comments as to why I had long nails before and told me never to do that "hard gel". I've also never got my nails dunked in a bowl of acetone before. It's usually wrapped so the smell isn't overwhelming? I've went back and forth about whether or not to write this review since I'm usually one to promote businesses! I am hoping it was just a bad day but I fear I won't be back as the energy of this particular tech was a lot/she seemed unhappy... I wish I could say it was good work but my nails and polish didn't even last a week, even with GEL!! :( Two nails broke and the paint peeled off. I was sad because this was my birthday nails lol. Hopefully that was just a bad day and it's not their baseline. Sadly I'm still on the hunt for a nail salon lol.

The wax in the…read moretreatment room was not warm because the wax warmer was turned off, so the esthetician had to bring in a smaller container of wax from the front. During the service, I observed repeated double-dipping of the applicator stick, which is unsanitary and can increase the risk of spreading infections or disease between clients. The waxing room itself appeared dusty and unclean. Additionally, the curtain was left partially open during the appointment, showing a lack of regard for client privacy. Overall, the experience felt unprofessional, unhygienic, and uncomfortable.

She was careful and did a quality long hair cut. I also saw her finish up another customer's bob and it looked fantastic. The salon was clean and well lit and airy.

Very reasonable and I was just as happy as I have been in the past with a $65 hair cut and blow out. Highly recommend for a budget- minded customer looking for a quality hair cut. Their products are reasonably priced, as well. They carry Paul Mitchell, Regis products, Ask for Linda!
