This place is easy to miss as it is located above another store. You have to buzz an intercom system that looks quite residential. The interior is bright, clean, and tastefully designed. When I was there, the receptionist spoke minimal English but she was quite patient with my broken Spanish. The waxing rooms are located down the hall far away from the reception and nails area so you have complete privacy. My beautician was Lara who was very friendly. The wax they use here is incredible! It's very thick and velvety. It was by far the most painless waxing session I've ever experienced- and yes it was for everything down there. The price for "pubis sencer del tot" was only 18 euros- a bargain by US standards. Everything on the price list seemed very cheap compared to other places in Barcelona. I highly recommend this place- ask for Lara!

The place is small, clean, modern and there were several people working at the same time which allowed me to walk right in on a Friday afternoon. I got a shellac mani/pedi and it was one of the best services I have received. They are very thorough, and did a beautiful job. Though there is very little English spoken the staff are warm and friendly. Also the services were right around 55 euros total which is less expensive than LA. Boys- I saw a couple of business men in there as well :-) All in all, a great find, highly recommend.

Update** After…read morewriting this review on their page, they texted me saying "Fuck you" for writing this review. (I attached the photo below however just like a lot of other customers that have written reviews on here, they deleted the photos. How unprofessional. I'm sure their massages are great but don't get a manicure here. I asked for a black shellac manicure, they started to put it on my nails, then she realized the color was terrible and they ran out of black. Then they told me they don't have time to give me a shellac manicure so they instead painted my nails black (non-shellac). However when she painted them black, she only put one coat on and it looked terrible because she didn't care to even make it look good because they gave it to me for free. Then I told them I was disappointed with my experience and she responded with telling me that "I'm sure you make mistakes with the job you have so we all make mistakes" instead of just owning up to it. Not a way of handling customer service. I wish the woman realized that the color was terrible before putting it on me instead of just putting it on me. It was not professional and she didn't seem to care. I regret spending my last vacation day getting my nails done here in Barcelona.

GREAT FROM FAR, GREAT FROM START TO FINISH…read more How does one describe perfection? The Beautery does an amazing job from beginning to end. The staff speak English, the space is airy and inviting and the nail technicians are on point. Desperately needed a mani / pedi: as my godson would say my feet looking like I was "playing soccer with rocks", and I had two hangnails that were driving me to distraction Normally, I have a nail job every 2 weeks. I had changed jobs, changed countries, was flying considerable distances for work, renovating a house and clearing out another: let's just say that after months of being hidden away in work boots and woollen socks, the feet had seen better days. Enter The Beautery I was so relaxed, I forgot to give my technician instructions on how I like the nails shaped. I needn't have bothered: not only did my technician complete one foot without me noticing but also rendered the nails to perfection I had to stop working on my computer multiple times to see of the technician had fallen asleep: I could not feel a thing. And the nail job -- EASILY one of the best manicures I've ever enjoyed. If I was being really nitpicky I would mention that the sofa in reception has small stains on it, the little cup of water they offered just felt like an afterthought and the way the foot tub area is designed is awkward for men and taller women. And in the grand scheme of things? I really couldn't give a damn. For service this good, tiny failings aren't even in the equation VERDICT: NEAR PERFECTION ACROSS THE BOARD,

She really did an amazing job- I don't think any one has ever taken so much care for a pedicure!!!! I also revived a manicure which was also amazing and had my armpits waxed.

Small but mighty - this is your location for inexpensive and quick waxing…read more You enter a non-descriptive door off of a crazy busy tourist street and go up to 1st floor (2nd floor lol). Even though they buzzed you on the front door, they will need to buzz you in to the establishment. She'll take your name. You'll have a seat in the very sparse waiting room and they'll be with you quickly. To get the lower legs waxed you go into a room that's curtained off you step up onto a funky shelf where there's a little bars to hold onto. She comes in with a pot of hot wax and has you tested on your leg. If it's a little too hot, she'll stir it some more. Then you get slapped with wax on both side sides of the legs all the way around and she peels it off quickly. Totally painless. And then because this is not only a efficient establishment they are thoughtful one they do it a second time around so that all the tiny little hairs get taken off. When you come to get down, she'll give you cotton an alcohol to clean your feet off before you put your shoes on. You go upfront to pay, leave a tiny tip (1€ or so) in CASH (they prefer), and you're on your way. Easy Peezy. No appointment needed and you should be done within 15 minutes or so. TL/dr: fast and easy but super efficient and cheap leg waxing
