    This is the BEST nail salon I have ever been too. Diana is a pro, I always walked out with immaculate nails that stayed perfect for a month. I am so sad that I moved out of Boston and can't go here anymore. Also everyone who works here is incredibly friendly and welcoming!

    Gel manicure.

    Lovely staff and great service. Helpful with color choice and always honest about opinion if you want help with colors. Gel color, clean and comfortable environment.

    This is my new favorite nail salon. I've been shopping around lately just not fully satisfied with the places in Brighton for a gel manicure. Diana is thorough, precise, and speaks English! A different woman wrapped my nails initially and noticed I was stretching my neck and gave me a neck massage! It was glorious.

    Was walking by and decided to see if they took walkins. I was greeted by Diana who was pleasant and cheerful. I asked to have my dip removed then added on a manicure. My manicure was performed by some else but Diana wrapped my nails. I was accommodated but felt like the manicure took longer than normal and I was nicked twice by my manicurist who may have been a little zealous with my cuticles. Other than that the place was clean and I practiced COVID-19 procedures.

    3 weeks !! with 2 activity filled weeks in Hawaii

    This place is awesome, there are no shortage of nail salons in Brookline, but this place is above all others (even the fancy chain). My previous salon closed during covid so I've been coming here for the last couple years. Diana is professional and meticulous. My review picture speaks for itself, this was today, 3.5 weeks after manicure, with 2 activity filled weeks in Hawaii. You can see that there was no chips or peel whatsoever.

    I saw Amy and she did a fantastic and thorough job!! Gel never stays on my nails and they have now stayed for 2 weeks now !!

    3 years ago I left a great rating for Nail Stylus and I'm happy to report that they still get 5 stars from me. I continuously go to Diana and her customer service, talent, kindness, and patience is unmatched. I have gone to other more posh places in Brookline and boston and have not had a manicure (primarily I get gel but sometimes regular) last as long as when I get them done by Diana. She is meticulous with her work and always goes above and beyond. They practice great safety measures and I typically call a few days in advance to secure a reservation. This past time I got a gel manicure and regular pedicure and the picture is of my manicure 3 WEEKS LATER to the date. It's funny, sometimes I'll go in and Diana mentions I haven't been in for a while and I say it's because your manicures are TOO GOOD. I'm pretty rough on my hands and workout a lot, so with a simple cuticle oil daily, this manicure has been preserved for 21 days now. I plan to get another week out of them before I go in and get fresh paint before a trip. Seriously. All the women at Nail Stylus are great to be around and always so kind!

    Diana gives one of the best manicures in Brookline and in the business. She is precise, very detailed, patient and does not rush her work. It's hard to find this kind of skill thee days. Call for an appointment with her she is busy busy. All the ladies that work here give amazing pedicures and are very friendly.

The word on the street was that Karen Golden was the person you went to if you were coming into this from a place of trauma and the street wasn't kidding. If you're kind of a hot mess, you won't find a more compassionate person. She's not judgy, she's not unkind, and she makes the process of ripping your pubic hair out of your body as not-awful as it possibly could be. The room is clean and smells nice. Her assistant Lara is also as kind as can be. She takes cash or checks and everyone is understanding if you don't come by on the regular or have to cancel at the last minute (I disappear for months at a time: my income ain't what it used to be) but if you can only go to one place for the rest of your life for waxing, this is where you should go. She's the best.

I have done single process, partial highlights, full highlights, and hair cuts with her. She has done a perfect job each and every time. I would highly recommend her to anyone! Her prices are more than fair and her work product is priceless. Further, she is efficient with her time without sacrificing the end result. I greatly appreciate that I am not sitting in the chair for an unnecessary amount of time which is what happens at most other salons. And for the time I am sitting in the chair, she is great conversation! Not only does she do amazing work, she cultivates a safe space through her radiant and kind personality. I am so lucky to have been referred to her by a friend and I hope to have her do my hair forever! I have curly dark brown hair and she has safely got me to the blonde shade I desire. Her highlights add so much dimension to my hair and I feel so confident after she does my hair. My hair is so healthy and she is very knowledgeable on how to safely bleach hair, especially curly hair. Douja is so talented and everyone should get their hair done by her!!

    Hello, so this post may be TMI - so if you aren't into that, keep scrolling and just look at the 5…read morestars ~ I am a light skinned black women w/ very coarse curly hair. My private area hairs HATE being waxed. I always end up getting ingrown hairs after a wax. I have had nothing but issues with waxing, even after visiting European Wax Center. Once upon a time I lived in Atlanta and would get waxes from Andreas, but I no longer live there. STRAVROULA, the waxer, was the absolute best. She works in the basement of a hair salon, but the wax room is clean and tidy. I told her I don't usually wax because of getting ingrown hairs. I was only getting a bikini wax, so she gave me a pair of disposable underwear. I thought that was great and professional. I told her I wanted to try the Sugar wax, as I had read about it, and wanted to try it out. She tried the sugar wax on me and the sensitive skin wax on me. She would use the different waxes for different parts of my skin. She payed attention to me, engaged in conversation and the wax did not hurt as much as I thought. The pain level was about the same with other waxes that I have had. After the wax, my skin was very bumpy and red, but within the next few hours that went away. I wanted to write a review the day I got the wax, but decided to wait because my issues usually pop up AFTER the wax with ingrown hairs, but I can say 1 week later, my extended bikini line is still bump free. I will ONLY be going to STRAVOULA and actually look forward to getting another before my next vacation. Side bar: I always HATE how people who wax you, tell you to come more often to reduce the pain and the amount of hair and I really think that is a myth and a way for the shop to make more money. At European Wax Center they always try and make you buy a package to save $X.00 over time and they wax you so fast, there is no personal touch. I feel that they only care about profits. I felt that Stravoula actually cared about my skin and wanted me to have a great experience. I do not hate EWC, but they are both near eachother and one is franchise, while the other is a small business owner who has been doing this sort of work for 20+ years. Good luck hairy gals!

    I go to Stavroula regularly for spray tans, and she is the best of the best!! Professional, kind,…read moreand does an outstanding job every time. Highly recommend!!

The technician had a nice demeanor,…read morebut her technique left me with sores (that soon turned into scabs) on my lower lip and eyebrow area. Instead of using a single swift pull, this technician (Sheila) used a series of small pulls, which I believe led to the sores. But I'm not sure about that. What I can say is that I'm in my mid-50s, have been waxing for decades, and have never been left with sores/scabs. So this issue is distinct to this visit to EWC in Brookline, MA (and I've been to several others in the area). Additionally troubling is that I wrote a note to EWC stating the above to no avail, even offering to send them photos that I'd taken. Not only did no one contact me, I know they received my complaint because I got a follow-up survey inquiring as to my satisfaction regarding the efficacy of their follow-up. Incredible! You can't make this stuff up. I've even checked Junk, thinking "surely not, surely *someone* would have written back; maybe it went into the Spam folder." Nope. Non. Nada. Anyway, the woman at the front desk was lovely, friendly, chatty, and very welcoming. Despite that, unless I want more scabs, returning to this EWC seems unwise and so I won't.
