I've been coming to Moss Beauty for over 6 years and cannot recommend it enough. Rhonda the owner…read moreis the most amazing waxer. She uses two different types of wax and makes the process as close to painless with her incredible skills. She now focuses solely on body waxing and especially bikini and legs/arms. She's been doing this a long time and even when I've been traveling and had to go to other places nowhere compares to Moss. She is also a great sex educator and sells high quality and well-curated toys in her store. She'll give you great advice and is just fun and easy to be around and talk to. Lastly she's super LGBTQ+ welcoming and embracing - so it doesn't matter who you are you will be welcomed and made to feel very comfortable at Moss.

The attitude of the person I dealt with makes me never want to go again. My family has paid for a half dozen services and yet there is no thought to a long term relationship.

They are actually just around the corner from me and I would have considered making this a more regular stop, but one interaction has cost them a lifetime of business.

You can tell she really cares about her work and wants you to leave feeling confident. The salon itself is clean, relaxing, and everyone there is friendly.

I'm back with another review of this salon! I love this place…read more After a year of coming here I have had my nails done by many of the different nail techs and each time I have been impressed by how much they seem to care about the job they are doing. With that said, there are varying levels of skill at this salon. Just like you would find at any salon. You can pick a specific nail tech of your choosing if you prefer. Cynthia, the owner, is wonderful. It's not easy to run this sort of business but she does a great job and genuinely cares about the customers and her employees. You can tell by the regular laughter floating around the place. I will keep coming to this local salon for a long time to come.

I was so excited for my pedicure once I landed in Durham. I called two days in advance and made an…read moreappointment for 5pm on 7/3. I walked in and let them know about my appointment, I saw them check their book and confirm I was on there. She then told me to check in on the kiosk and pick my color. I followed the woman to a pedicure chair where she informed me that I shouldn't sit there and it was for someone else. About two minutes later, a woman walks in and thanks her for squeezing in an appointment. Wow. She tells me to go speak to the manager. He asks can I wait because there are three other people ahead of me, I said no I really couldn't and that's why I made an appointment. Very, very disappointing experience. Why let me check in for my appointment but then don't service me? Why was another woman with an appointment serviced before me? Why was there no real solution offered except wait for an undisclosed amount of time? I thought people were friendlier down south but clearly the businesses are not. 0/10.

So 20 minutes later, I'm at her place getting groomed. I was back in my car after another 20 minutes. She was fast. Which was surprising to me considering I haven't been waxed in a long time. This was my first time sugaring and it was better than I expected. Since I haven't waxed in awhile, I was pretty embarrassed. But Viktoria made me feel comfortable. This isn't a typical salon, but she keeps it clean. This is not a typical spa experience, and the location wasn't what I was expecting. Sugarland is more like going over to your girlfriend's house for some grooming help. I saw her changing her gloves when she needed to get more from the jar, so that was reassuring in terms of cleanliness. While I was changing, she already started removing the disposable liner and spraying down the table already. I was actually surprised at the smoothness of my skin afterwards. I guess I'm hooked on sugaring. It's more than I'd like to pay compared to regular waxing (eg. $50).... But I think sugaring is better for my skin. I will be requesting more appointments in the future.

The girl at the front desk began to stutter just saying "she's um" over and over again so I leave. Then I get an email that they rescheduled me for 12:30. So I call and ask what that's about, the front desk girl lets me know that the stylist had an "emergency" in their bathroom and had to go so I can just disregard that. If the stylist was having an emergency why not communicate that to your guest, or even reschedule them with someone else? Gas is not cheap and neither is time in this economy.
