She asked how I wanted them done, I asked for just a clean up as we both agreed that going thinner would not look good. However, after my eyebrows were done, I felt there were just a touch thinner than I wanted but still very smooth and clean. The tech was friendly and the price was more than reasonable. They share a parking lot with their plaza. 4/5.

I want to start off this review by stating that I am VERY particular about the way I get my brows…read moreshaped. I will only go to places that offer threading as an option. I also have a very strong preference for Indian salons, as threading for eyebrows is a part of their culture. Finding an Indian-owned salon to get my brows done in South Jersey was hard, until I found Padma's. Voorhees has a wide variety of Indian-owned stores ranging from clothing, to food, to salons. Padma's offers many types of salon services and henna. I have now been going every few weeks for my brow threading over the course of several months. Padma's is located in a strip mall in Voorhees. It's not your average fancy or aesthetically-pleasing salon. However, it offers a good variety of salon/spa services as well as Indian wedding makeup. The women who work here are dedicated and do a great job. Because Padma's is well-staffed, they are able to accommodate a good number of customers at once. For eyebrow threading/waxing, appointments aren't required. I have never waited longer than 10 minutes to get my threading done. Overall, I really like this place. The women who work here all do a great job. While they're not focused on exceptional customer service, they still do their best to make conversation and be friendly. For anyone who is familiar with foreign-owned businesses, Padma's has some of that sentimental "back home" feel. Their pricing is also much lower than others in the area; they charge $6 for brows and $4 for upper lip. This place is a true gem; I always make sure to plan my threading around the times in the area.

So you ask.. how did I turn into a Dorothy Dandridge Goddess lookalike? .. Or, more frankly, from…read morea bear to a non-bear? ;) This Indian salon-- my friends have been trying to get in on this so here it is: If there is one thing India prides more than the exquisite cuisine of the land, the lush forests, the stunning palaces, the spectacular fashions: it's the beauty of Indian women. Indian women are so gorgeous! Whether they are young or young-at-heart, there is a grace that shines through. I get inspired and hope to capture a fraction of that Indian beauty, if I can. Yet after quite a few decades on me ;).. I need a bit of help from my salon friends. So I searched far and wide for that perfect Indian salon. Yet I hated the arrogant atmosphere of some of those Indian salons in north NJ/NY. So I avoided them.. and ended up paying a fortune at "nicer expensive" places. The gorgeous Indian NJ girls kindly let me in on their secret of one right here in South Jersey... and this place is an oasis! They do hair, skin, waxing, nails, et all. I hear they even do incredible thermal reconditioning / japanese hair straightening-- at a very low rates. Now that's rare. Moreover, they do it with no hoo-haaa or airs of the other places.. nor do they force your wallet to go on a diet. The prices are so right-- an incredible fraction of those expensive places. Who would have thought a simple little hidden salon in the back of an Indian grocery store would turn up such treasures? It is run by two lovely sisters, Sital and Sonal.. and they are so sweet and talented. It is also nice because if you bring your friend(s) along, they can shop at the Indian botique across of it, do Indian groceries, and can eat in the complex restaurants (i.e Curry Cafe)-- and not get bored waiting for you. So it's an all-in-one place.. nice. I've tried their eyebrow threading numerous times and it's a thumbs up: Eyebrow threading is de-facto Indian beauty treatment -- an ancient art. Eyebrow threading is so much preferable to waxing (much more elegant precision, much faster, no allergies, less pain.. and much more refined-- as the thread is expertly used to create the removal/precision.). All this for a mere $4.00!! And me being a total bear, the sweet girl spent nearly a half hour perfecting it-- whereareas most places start giving you attitude if you want more than 5 minutes (actually threading is fast and takes only about 5 minutes-- so to be fair, spending more than 5 minutes may be a bit too much... but she will do it if you want that). I never get more compliments than after she threads it for me-- I literally get transformed-- and with my years-- that's quite a feat. People say... came back from a vacation...? you look so fresh.. This is not the case when I have it done by others. I went to an expensive spa recently and they all wanted to know where I got my brows done-- even the spa personnel who does eyebrow waxing wanted to know. She's that good.. that sweet.. to take her time to do it right. She listens to what you want. Bring photos (or not) and she will work with you. Just the other day, I needed an elaborate extensive hair service for an event and they were booked for a month. Seeing my dire need, the girls actually rescheduled their hectic schedules, placed me in for the whole day, and will be doing it for me. **Update: The hair turned out incredible. They took all day to do it- they even skipped lunch to finish up. They are SUPER. ** So now you know my secret to being the Dorothy Dandrige - Goddess. :) well.. almost. ;)

The thing you must prepare for is language barrier or not, these ladies, 1 in particular is very very rough. I like to refer to this one as 'the madam'. She is no nonsense, what do u want? Why are you bothering me? kinda rough. I'm pretty tough & I quite enjoy the random 'nasty' that I may have the 'pleasure' of dealing with during my business dealings. I find it a challenge and tend to sweetly antagonize these types. Therefore these mani/pedi trips are both entertaining & functional. The actual technicians are all very sweet, however fairly browbeaten by their Madam, therefore sum what void of a full personality. They are, however, all very good at what they do. Plus who couldn't enjoy getting a pedi surrounded by decorations from every holiday of the year. Yep, from Christmas to Easter, it's all here. Enjoy!!

I was confused because with Gel X the nails are already shaped and in different sizes ( short, medium square nails and more).

I had to let them know that I know the shape and size that I want is available and what do you know somehow they found short oval nails! The lady that assisted me was nice. The location is clean.

The lady who started working on my pedicure was actually good, but then the boss came in, pull her to another client in the middle of the work and took over herself. It was the worst experience. She applied the nail polish on my toes very sloppy and uneven. Then she did gel manicure. Very unprofessional. She did not cut cuticles or any usual routine before applying gel. She rushed through the work. My nails look disaster. The gel is all over my fingers and it looks like I am wearing my nails for two weeks already. I asked to fixed a few nails , but she looked annoyed by it. Finally, when I was ready to pay she made up a price , much higher than their website says. And she also was telling her technicians to charge their clients different prices ( not what it says on the website). I left very disappointed and upset with the service and the price I had to pay for it. I know there a few nice and professional technicians, but it's not guaranteed you will get them even if you make an appointment. I would not recommend this place unless you know exactly how much you will pay and who you are going to get. Do not rely on their website.

I usually like to stick with a classic French look given my job so they suggested a french ombré style nail they can do with the dip which turned out incredible. I've been getting it ever since! The dip is much lighter on my nails (they don't have that "can't breathe" feeling) and actually thinner than usual acrylic yet somehow they've lasted me up to a month on a few occasions when I wasn't able to go sooner. Plus it has the added benefit of allowing my natural nails to grow and when they take off the dip acrylic they don't break or feel paper thin. My lady always takes her time, making sure everything's perfect, and does an incredible job on a consistent basis. They are so sweet, always welcoming, and provide me with cute ideas that they think I'll like which I appreciate. I recently got a light glitter over the ombré nails which they suggested and I couldn't be happier. I honestly have no complaints. If you're looking for high frills like they have in the city then go to the city - but if you're looking for high quality nails, artistry and kindness at a local spot then this place is perfection.
