First I thought it was fluke I would leave message to book and never hear back so I had to stop by physically to book. When I asked about why they didn't call back. They seem dumbfounded and said they return all messages. Well I decided I wanted to give my daughter a manicure party with her best friend. So called Monday and left a message. No response still by Thursday night so I decided to email them and I get a response by text saying 10am booking when I asked for 4:30 pm. I text back and it's been 24 hours no response. Well I guess they don't want my business. I found another nail place and called them at 9pm thinking to leave a message and booked in 5 minutes what I needed. Not coming back here.

I visited back in May and did a brow lamination and tint, and lash lift and tint. I have had this service done at several places before without issue. Upon leaving I thought it was different than i had done it before and maybe just needed to adjust. Idk. On further reflection she must have switched the products or burned them somehow. Half my eyelashes were kinked. Yes i followed aftercare perfectly. Then my eyelashes fell out and at some point were itchy and my lid was swollen. I'm not post photos but have them, and she has seen them. My eyebrows also were like hard and wouldn't move. Later they started falling out too. She gave me a full refund when I send her pics. But this is before everything started falling out. I had to buy a lash serum to grow them back. And then in August I started noticing that my eyebrows were falling out. I thought they were shedding normally and going back to blonde. NOPE! They weren't growing back at all. I went to the dr and it is 100% because of what she did. I now am using rogaine to regrow them. It's taking forever and she also refused to pay for product to help grown them back. It's probably going to be another 2-3 months of me looking awful because of Perri. Have the Holiday you deserve.

The tint was also incomplete and left me with half dark, half blonde hairs. I left looking like a monster.

Julia is great! She has been accomodative to my schedule, since I usually book my waxes at the last minute. I'll usually have a glass of wine and talk for a few minutes first. She makes the appointment very comfortable and laid back. Julia is so easy to talk to that the time passes so quickly and my mind isn't on the wax at all. It almost makes me look forward to my waxing because I know that I will be relaxed, be treated well and have a good end result. read more

Not to mention she was a fabulous listener about everything else, too! She is professional and clearly skilled at her craft. I looked forward to every appointment.
