However now I was unsuccessful in contacting anyone to schedule a facial that I bought on Groupon. Every time I texted the number to make an appointment I wouldn't receive a response immediately. Weeks will pass before I would receive a response. When I finally received a text message I was limited to a single time and day that did not work for my schedule. I am disappointed that I wasted $55 on this Groupon. I will find another esthetician.

I make sure to visit Afterglow Oasis every month to maintain my beauty regimen. Kamilliah's…read moretransparency and product knowledge improves her credibility and the trust I have in her as an esthetician. I appreciate her providing expert knowledge concerning ingredients in skin care products and the impact the components have on a particular skin type instead of simply pushing a brand name product. She recommends detailed skin care regimens along with safe and healthy products to use. I'm always happy to splurge on these items and appreciate how well the solutions are crafted for her clients .   Services I have received typically include facials, chemical peels, and micro- needling.  She greets me with assuredness, remaining professional and engaging while applying different treatments as she observes how the skin responds during treatment. As a client, I feel immediately secure, and I do not take for granted that I am in the skilled hands of greatness when I am being serviced at Afterglow Oasis. Kamiliah consistently displays a heightened level of understanding, application, and attention to detail when working to remedy & beautify her clients while prioritizing the usage of safe & sumptuous products. I appreciate her knowledge as a trained professional to produce the ultimate level of quality at an affordable price, and because of her personalized care I can "glow" as well.

A lot of the items in the shop are broken/taped together. however, pricing is fair. They are quick and typically you never have to wait long. I think the longest I have ever waited was about 10 minutes because I came at opening and they opened late. I hear this happens frequently so I never go at opening anymore.

Kudos to Yelp for connecting me with this jewel. Not only was Shayla pleasant and engaging, she…read moreprovided a fabulous experience. I particularly want to point out the following: - Shayla asked numerous questions to get an understanding of my skin's history and regimen. - She doesn't recommend aggressive-peels during winter months. - Shayla's an advocate of customized facials, as everyone's needs are different, and thus, there isn't a "one size fits all" solution. - Advised me to steer-clear of aggressive methods to deal with breakouts, as it can lead to hyper-pigmentation. - Product recommendations were made, but no pushy sales-tactics. ... all indicative of a stellar esthetician. Unfortunately not all of them operate with such integrity. And if this wasn't good enough, I received a discount based on the current Groupon special I wasn't even aware of... she's located 15 minutes away from my house... offers later weekday AND weekend appointments. Excellent customer service and professionalism from a fellow brown girl... please take my money!

I was referred to her by the salon's owner, Ja'narria, and I am consistently happy with the results.

I highly recommend Symphony for your waxing needs and look forward to trying the other services offered at the salon.

I found out about Nahla's Beauty Lounge by accidentally walking past it after an appointment. I…read morehad been to the Tribeca shops plenty of times and never realized it was there. I walked in to check out their services. Melanie, a very professional and friendly stylist greeted me and offered to see me same-day for a blowout. I have natural hair and have been struggling to figure out what to do with it. I sit on the fence about wearing it out naturally versus doing a blowout because I simply don't know how to style it naturally and it takes too long for me to blow out my hair. During the appointment, Melanie educated me on styling products for my hair type and style type (natural with curls out, twists, blown-out, sew-in, protective styles). As someone who is not well-versed in natural hair care, it was a breath of fresh air to learn so much in a short period of time. The wash/deep conditioning/blow-dry/styling took just a little over an hour and change--I couldn't believe it--I have never been able to do my hair in under 2 hours! I'm already scheduled for a follow-up appointment. My appointment was actually over a week ago and my hair is still soft, straight and neither feels oily nor dry. I'm excited about my next appointment and about learning how to care for my hair. I highly recommend this salon especially for anyone in the DC/PG County/Northern VA area. It's worth the visit and the salon is beautiful!

Check in at the gym front desk and head straight back through the door that says "Aura Spa." There's street and garage parking nearby and a metro only blocks away. 2) Price: For a 60-minute quality massage in a nice environment, it only cost $115 not including tip. For this area, that's not bad. 3) Experience: It was a great experience. They made sure you stay hydrated, don't make you wait, and don't talk to you during the massage so you can relax.
