So I will keep coming back to Top Notch Waxing because they are great at what they do and always have a great attitude. I will keep coming back unless I live extremely far. So far the 15 min drive is always worth the beautiful results.

I've been going to Top Notch for years, which is why this experience was especially disappointing…read more After my eyebrow wax, the technician pointed out that my left upper eyelid looked much redder than the right. When I got home, I realized part of the skin on my upper eyelid had been ripped off during the waxing. I contacted the salon immediately, and the owner was trying to help me... however, I understand asking whether I was on antibiotics is a standard question, but even after I explained that I wasn't on any medication and sent a photo clearly showing a skin tear, I felt the focus was more on finding another explanation than acknowledging the injury. I followed every aftercare instruction exactly as advised, applying ointment every three hours and avoiding hot water for the next 36 hours. When my eyelid remained swollen and painful, I reached out again and asked if they could refund my eyebrow service. Instead, I was told : " I'm sorry it still is in bad condition but it looks like you didn't use any ointment like I suggested" As someone who cares about my skin and previously worked in the aesthetics industry, that assumption was extremely disappointing because I had followed their instructions carefully. I understand that accidents can happen during waxing. What disappointed me was how that was handled afterward. As a long-time customer, I expected more professionalism and accountability.

Your relationship with your eyebrow lady is a working relationship and only gets better over time!

After careful reviews on Yelp, decided to give European Wax Center a try.

Very kind staff. Luckily, it was exactly what fellow yelpers had raved about -- KJ is incredibly calming, kind and talented. I had an appointment for a brow wax and before we began, I explained that I wanted to keep my arch and I also don't want it to be too thin. I wanted to maintain the shape. And KJ listened to rant and concerns. The results exceeded my expectations and I'm so grateful to her. Love my brows! Looking forward to my next appointment! Would highly recommend KJ at European Wax Center! Very welcoming, kind and talented team!

For threading brows, waxed upper lip, and underarms I pay $24 before tip which would easily be $50+ at another facility. Pari is kind, warm, and efficient which I appreciate greatly as I don't have to make an appt and have at most waited 10 minutes. The business accepts cash and card/Apple Pay which is a plus. It is a great small business in Newark I love to support to get my monthly maintenance done. I highly recommend if you want a quick service, it is not a spa or boujee place it does the job and for the price you're paying that's all you can ask for. I actually enjoy going here since I know Pari will be the only one cleaning my brows which she has been for the past 4-5 years now with her previous employer.

5 stars for Cindy - she was wonderful and thank you for taking great care of my mom!…read more Took my mom and myself to get a pedicure as a treat for Mother's Day. We did the same thing last year here as well and unfortunately I was disappointed with my service both times. I got one of the older women both times (I didn't ask her name as I was unhappy and just wanted to get out of there). The paint job is nice, nothing wrong with that. But this is a huge treat and part of the service they offer is a 4 minute massage. Both times this woman just rubbed my legs the entire time (after she wasted almost a minute drying my gel). I work on my feet and looked forward to get my feet rubbed even if it was just a couple minutes but unfortunately after paying $106 for both pedicures I didn't even get to enjoy the full service. It felt extremely rushed even with absolutely no one else in there and having to say something about not getting the full service. Everyone else was very nice and the atmosphere is clean enough. Just maybe don't go for the older woman if you want a decent service besides the color. Will probably be trying out a new salon after two strikes
