Svetlana did a spectacular job with my facial and my eyebrows…read more My face looks and feels... lighter. I really love when people approach their work thoughtfully, with acute attention to details. This is how Svetlana works. She noticed things I've never would had thought of, she explained what and why we should do, and in general, went above and beyond what I expected. And I had a great time throughout the process, which say a lot for someone who usually views cosmetic treatments as a necessary evil.

Svetlana took extra special care and attention to the overall care and health of my feet.

UPDATE: I did hear back from the salon, two days before my wedding. I appreciate that they did get…read morein touch but it was a very mixed message (kind of apologetic, but also a bit accusatory; offering to bring me back in to make it right, but 48 hours before my wedding). I do want to note that I sound pretty angry in my review, and my language isn't the nicest. I thought about editing it but ultimately, this was an honest reflection of my experience. I'm letting it stand, keeping in mind that two stars on Yelp is, as they note, "Meh. I've experienced better"--not "aaah the world is ending." (I did take out one line that was a little unnecessary at the end!) ----------------- Perhaps you should just go here for other services Yelpers recommend, but I tried going--based on the glowing reviews here--for a bridal hair and makeup trial and could not have been more disappointed. Neither the stylist (Trish) nor the makeup artist (Preeti) paid any attention whatsoever to what I asked for, and both were very resistant to make any changes and just told me they could do things differently on my wedding day. Um. Not the point of a trial. Maybe it was late in the day and they wanted to go home, or had bad days, whatever, but it sucked. Plus I went with two friends and they were made to feel about as uncomfortable as guests could possibly feel--in a basically empty salon. I left feeling absolutely terrible about myself, with an updo that frizzed out within two hours, and makeup I washed off when I got home it made me so unhappy. (Also: when a makeup artist stabs you in the eye, it happens; but they should probably say a quick "sorry" rather than point out how now they're going to have to redo your bottom lid liner.) I left a voicemail at the salon saying I was unhappy with services and canceling my bridal appointment. They did not call back. Two weeks before my wedding and $125 invested, I have to find somewhere else to go. Two stars because the salon uses high quality makeup, and people were generally friendly.

I probably had my lashes done about 4 times, including a full set, and each time she listens and makes sure you leave happy. Anyways, I made the mistake of missing one of my fill appointments and let my lashes fall off and breathe. Fast forward to 2 weeks before a holiday event and desperately trying to get in with her, unfortunately she was booked (although she will try her best to get you in if she has any cancellations) and I tried another salon/spa. WORST MISTAKE OF MY LIFE!! They gave me a full set, but the minute I opened my eyes, they were burning, and my lashes looked fake and heavy. Immediately after, they were rock hard to the touch and all stuck together- I couldn't even comb a mascara wand through them. I called Maria and begged her to help me. She got me in the next day and safely removed my poorly done extensions. I literally felt like she saved my life! Maria is knowledgeable, sweet and professional. She is passionate about lashes and takes her craft very serious! Her prices are reasonable and most importantly, she is certified in lash extensions and removal. Go see her if you're thinking about lashes!

Never has my face looked this fierce…read more Renu is a true artist and joyful businesswoman who resolved years worth of wax/tweeze damage in less than 10 minutes. No exaggeration! I started waxing my brows at the age of 13, and after years and years of follicle damage I stopped getting ANY work on my brows for the past few years and still had to fill them in with tinted brow gel and pencil. They are naturally asymmetrical and I am so nervous to let anyone touch my brows. A good friend took me in just to sit by as she got HER brows threaded and tinted, and just witnessing my friend's beautiful brows and how friendly and talented Renu is, I decided to give it a shot after more than 2 years. Renu is an excellent listener and kept my brown's shape without removing too much hair. It took no time at all either! I really wish I lived closer because this is the best my brows have ever looked--no joke! If you live in the area (or are just passing through like I was) you should visit Renu! She also does a stellar job on men's brows.

You'll wish she was your friend. Pretty Chic offers some of the best micropigmentation in Boston for eyebrows, eyeliner and lips... BUT... Full disclosure, so you know I'm telling the truth, I was not five star 100% happy with my original eyebrow permanent makeup. Yet, as soon as May found out, she got me right back in to do another "touch-up," and to add more hair strokes, until it looked... PERFECT. THAT is how much she cares about her clients' getting the best permanent makeup in Boston. THE PRICE: the prices at Pretty Chic are pretty reasonable too... especially compared to high-end city salons that have to pay Newberry Street rent and fund an expensive advertising budget. THE DEAL: if you're looking for some of Boston's best micropigmentation, at an affordable price, look no further than Pretty Chic!
