    6 out of five starts! As other reviewers have written, Melissa and her bee-themed beauty studio…read moreMaebee's are TOP NOTCH, a true gem. I have been going to see Melissa for bikini and brow waxing for about two years. I first decided to make an appointment because of the stellar reviews and because her previous Kensington location was walking distance from my house. Although she has since moved, I would not think of going anywhere else at this point because Melissa really is the "bee's knees" (sorry, I had to). Melissa is professional, personable and fun to talk to, which makes the experience of someone peering up your downside far less awkward. She is also just very good at waxing: very little pain/redness and absolutely smooth. She checks in during the entire process to make sure that you are comfortable. I am not over-selling when I tell you that she has consistently given me the best waxes I have ever had. She will also make sure that the wax is aesthetically perfect: even on both sides, every stray hair gone and every rogue one put back in its place. She is meticulously clean and careful, which I appreciate immeasurably during COVID times. The prices are lower than or comparable to other Philly beauty studios that I've frequented. I should mention that I also always request "a la carte" additions to my waxes, so that they are somewhere in-between bikini/full Brazilians. In the spirit of avoiding the exhaustive pricing list many other salons utilize, Melissa has never once up-charged me for my hybrid bush-- and she definitely could. I don't often write reviews but Melissa really is an all-star who cares so much about her clients. I happened to be the only scheduled appointment today and Melissa opened up the studio and came in anyway. That is dedication! The past ten months have been particularly hard on small businesses, and I am very glad that Maebee's has persevered. Besides Melissa's tenacity, I imagine that this is also because many, many other people feel the same way that I do: Maebee's is where it's at! If you need a wax (or facial/make-up once COVID restrictions relax), do yourself a favor and come to this place!!

    I have been going to Maebee's for a few years, mostly for Brazilian waxes. Her pricing is excellent…read moreand her work is careful, gentle (as much as one can be with waxing), and meticulous. Given the part I get waxed, one can imagine I am scrupulous as to to whom I will go and Melissa is only one of two beauticians I trust in the city. The other is more expensive and farther from home. Last year I got married and Melissa did my makeup. Again, the price was fair and her flexibility, responsiveness and availability (with this and my waxes) always impresses me and simply makes my life (and my attempts to beautify myself) easier.

    Liz is amazing! She really takes the time to decide on the best tan for you based on when your…read moreevent is and your skin tone. Have had two lovely experiences thus far and she is thorough each time. When I first came here I had never gotten a spray tan before and Liz made the whole experience seamless!

    In LOVE with my tan given by Fran! I achieved such amazing natural color... fast!!…read more We did a mini consultation before we began and decided to go with "mocha", which is the most popular color. I've had my fair share of spray tans over the years (my husband eve part owned a salon that gave them), and I have never had a color choice like the ones given here. I thought it was awesome! Originally I thought I would want to go darker with the "espresso" and Fran sprayed me, let me look at my tan line, and let me decide. But she was right, "mocha" was just perfect. It's your option to wear (or not) whatever you want. They do have disposable thongs available if you don't want to go au naturale, but want as much color as possible. Fran took her time with me, and even applied baby powder to soak up excess moisture on a very hot day to prevent streaking. Conversation was great and she was super professional. This can certainly be an awkward thing and Fran made me feel completely at ease. If this is your first spray tan be prepared to not get wet for 8-12 hours although for $10 more they have an express option which allows for showering in just 3 hours. Wear baggy dark clothes, exfoliate and shave prior to your appointment. Booking same day was super simple, but I would recommend calling at least a few days in advance. There's 10% with Yelp check-in and BOGO half for first timers. Went with the latter option and cannot wait to return the next time and get sprayed again when I have another special occasion or just want to feel extra golden and sexy. I UV tan regularly and this color is so incredibly difficult to attain that way. Plus, this spray is organic and much bette for you! They also have a full spa downstairs offering facials and lash services. Parking unmetered out front was super simple. Went perfectly with grabbing a bite at Suraya down the street. Awesome find!!

    This place was recommended to me by a friend that I know is particular about service so I didn't…read morehave any reservations when booking but I did still look at reviews and was pleased to see that others also had positive experiences. I browsed the website, which was easy to navigate and then made an appointment online. Also, I was excited to see that one of the service offerings was for 2 of the services that are my usual (underarms and Brazilian). I was able to get an appointment scheduled for the next day. When I arrived, I was greeted by the owner who was pleasant and very down to earth. She escorted me to the room where my services were rendered. We chatted while the services were happening and music played softly in the background so everything seemed to go fast... Hard wax is used, which is what works best for me. Note to all - be sure to read the tips on the website to ensure that you prepare accordingly for your appointment (especially for those new to waxing or not seasoned at getting waxed) and heed the follow up text messages for after care. I was thoroughly satisfied with the service, atmosphere and my overall experience and look forward to returning. P.S. there is free street parking.

    I came in for a wax before Thanksgiving. It was my first time, but I'd been recommended this place…read morea year prior by an uber driver. I had the absolute best time, everyone was warm, I felt like I was around my good folks, the vibes were great. Only one person in at the time, but everything flowed beautifully. I got a good education about products I used before, and left with a couple goodies. I forgot my rain hat, and they went above and beyond while I was in. So very grateful and can't wait to come back!

Also, it seems like only one or two people do gel x nails because other people were attending before me even though I got in way ahead.

    I gave this place a try a handful of times since it's so close to me but I had more bad experiences…read morethan good. A few times it was fine, not great but fine, but some of the technicians need training to not damage your nails. Once I went in and got gel polish removed and she was so rough she put a dent/pit in one of my nails that took a while to grow out. I've also had two different people clip my cuticles so aggressively I bled, which has never happened to me anywhere else. The last time it wouldn't stop bleeding where she cut me and instead of waiting a few more minutes she started to paint over the cut, at that point I had it and told her to just remove the color and left. I don't want to constantly leave a place worrying if I'm going to get an infection because they gave me an open wound. In addition they take appointments but then don't actually hold a spot for you, so you either have to wait a while or awkwardly sit in a pedicure chair to get a mani. It's a shame, I hardly get my nails done anymore because there's no good spots nearby.
