I've been here now a couple of times and my pedicure experience was great!! my manicure experience…read morews just ok. I thought I would share my experience for both! Pedicure- My husband and I came here together early on the weekend. I had made appointments ahead of time and we were seated right away. I loved the range of colors they offer. We both really enjoyed our pedicures and I thought they did a great job. The woman who did my nails was so nice. The chairs were comfy and it was such a nice way to relax at the start of the weekend. I would totally get a pedicure here again! Manicure- We came back here together and this time I got a manicure while my husband got another pedicure. The woman who did my manicure I think was just having a bad day or might have ben distracted. She was really rough when it came to pushing back my cuticles and even nicked me a few times. My fingers were bleeding during the manicure just a bit. It quickly stopped but wasn't off to a great start. She did a great job at massaging my hands and I love the shape she filed my nails into. When it came time for top coat she accidentally spilled the whole bottle and it got my my hands. Again, I think she might have just been having an off day. Overall, I was happy with the color and they looked nice but wasn't the best manicure I've had. I know nails salons work so hard which is why even though my manicure wasn't the best, I still wanted to give them 4 stars because I'd come back for a pedicure.

When we were finished with our massage, he had full range of motion in his back without feeling like he was ran over by a semi!

Annie is a money hungry stylist that overcharges her clients for haircolor, highlights. Its…read morefreaking ridiculous how much she charges. She intentionally started charging me extra after she was complaining to another stylist that I used up all the "toner, bleach" As you can see in the receipt that I posted, she charges me extra for "product, toner, and olaplex treatment" oh wow. Charges me a whole bottle of toner. And the olaplex treatment? That should have been complimentary. Rude. Seeing that shes a master stylist and already charges "starting at 160" no clue as to why. Whats next? Charge people for hairbrush and water usage? Basically if you go to beauty brands-you are paying for their rent, utilities, heater, air conditioner, brush, combs, capes. Just know that next time you pay. I won't be going back to beauty brands to get my hair done nor any other salon in town, cuz you know what? I'm coloring my OWN hair. I'm learning all the lingo stylists use. Thanks to the internet, there are tons of do it yourself. And honesty its not that hard. Also as far as using "professional salon hair color products" that only licensed stylists can buy yes, there's a website where non licensed people can buy. Probably a good reason why they don't sell the "secret" use only licensed hair color products at the stores is because they want people to go to the salon and spend hundreds of $$$$ on bleach, toner, hair color. Now why is it they sell bleach and hair color at the stores like sally beauty supplies but don't allow non licensed people to get their hands on salon professional hair products?! Cuz they don't want the public getting their hands on them and do their own hair -which means all those hairstylists would be out of a job. $300 -$400 going to a salon and pay that?! Ridiculous. Since when is hair considered luxury? Cosmetic surgery is luxury. It makes sense it costs thousands of dollars, it takes 10 years to become a doctor. But a stylist goes to cosmetology school for what 9 months and tuition is $18,000 to learn colors on the wheel and how to look at swatches? You people keep overcharging for your prices and you'll be out of a job cuz no one wants to pay $300 just for bleach.

Praises first: Lilly was AWESOME! Very polished and personable stylist. If she were to relocate to…read moreanother shop, we would definitely patronize her services. But, here is the reason why we will not be back to Beauty Brands on The Plaza: I imagine that you would have to actually go out of your way to hire a staff so impersonal, rude, and condescending as the group that were on staff on a recent Saturday morning. We are sympathetic to the challenges of hiring and retaining qualified personnel in recent years, but what we ran into at Beauty Brands on Ward Parkway was almost comically dysfunctional. We may have been witnessing the second stringers, but it cannot be excused, the hiring of people of this callous disposition toward paying customers.

In April 2024, Andrea, the business owner, referred me to Tiffany for my Brazilian wax. Like Andrea, Tiffany was polite, punctual, and highly competent. Tiffany admitted that she was new to aesthetic work which was reflected in the speed at which she worked. Regardless, Tiffany was thorough and performed one of the best waxes I had received to-date. In July 2024, Tiffany performed a second wax. Like our first meeting, I was greeted on time and led to a properly equipped treatment room that was both warm and inviting. The waxing was expertly performed. I was especially pleased to find that Tiffany had increased the pace at which she worked. As you may know, gentlemen, waxing services for men are difficult to find in Kansas City. Tiffany is truly concerned with the quality of her service. The fact that I have no stray hairs after a waxing is just one of the reasons I will have another waxing in November 2024 and for the foreseeable future. Tiffany (as well as other Back 2 Body resources) is a true Kansas City gem that deserves our support and recommendations.

I went to a nice salon before I found Back 2 Body and paid $35 more for the same service...and was swollen for days! It took almost an hour there and Andrea gets you in and out in 10-15 minutes. There's no signage at her business - it looks like a big white apartment complex from the outside and if you come after 6:00, the front door might be locked - just text her to let you in. I have been in to see Andrea at least 4 times now and will continue to be a loyal customer. She really does produce great results and it's a lot less painful than most places. You will be happy with the results and process!

It took me many, many years to find a permanent makeup artist that I liked and trusted. I found…read morethis place on Instagram and went in for a free consultation to have my eyebrows done. I envy people who have perfectly symmetrical faces, but I do not. To make things worse, one of my eyebrows grew higher and was shorter in length than the other. I wanted to get my eyebrows done in a way that would help make them more symmetrical and I was able to achieve that here! She was so kind and soft-spoken. Plus she was very meticulous on helping to achieve the desired look you're going for. After the initial consultation I made an appt to go in and have them permanently tattooed and then a follow-up appointment weeks after they healed to have a touch up. She explained to me that during the healing process my eyebrows were going to look dark and huge, but that it would quickly shrink and lighten up. She also gave me a small kit with an ointment to apply to the area along with written instructions on how to care for them. She was right! My eyebrows looked crazy for a bit, but they healed up nicely. In the future when I need to have them touched up again I will be coming back here. It's easy to make an appointment through her website. Not all places have easy appt scheduling, so I appreciate the ones that do.
