Look and feel your best; this is how I feel every time I leave Face Value Beauty Bar for my waxing…read moreand skin care needs. I've been seeing Julie for a few years now and she's always given the best-in-class service leaving me looking and feeling great. Aside from the high-quality job her prices are super competitive compared to big brand names and commercial enterprises who offer the same within the area and charge twice as much and take twice as long. That being said, it's a no-brainer to go with Julie as her skill is in a top-tier class all on its own. Aside from this, Julie is very personable, and it feels like interacting with a friend for a more humanized experience vs something transactional as just another customer/client. This adds a layer of personal touch thus she makes you feel understood with a more consultative approach to understanding human relations as much as she knows the technicalities of her services and skin care itself. Which is a great foundation of Face Value Beauty Bar being so successful. All in all, if you're reading this then without a doubt, I highly recommend Julie for your waxing and skin care needs. You'll love the outcome of the services you get, how you look, and how you feel! I 100% guarantee it!

I've been a loyal client at the Algonquin Sugaring NYC location for almost two years, and I've…read morealways had good experiences, including two previous 5 star review.. until this week. This was the worst service I've had since my early days at European Wax Center, and I actually left my appointment crying. I had booked my usual Brazilian + butt cheeks. Last week, I called to reschedule and learned--only because I called--that the waxer I've been seeing for the past year was no longer there. Management never informed me ahead of time, which I found unprofessional. When I rescheduled, I was told there were two other stylists available, so I agreed to book with anyone. When I arrived, I found out mid-appointment that my waxer had only started a week ago. She was very nice personality-wise, but the process was extremely messy--sugar in my hair, on my legs, all over the table, and on my clothes. She went over the same area 10-15 times, causing intense pain and burning. The service, which normally takes 20-30 minutes, dragged out to an hour and 15 minutes. I left sticky, covered in powder, and feeling awful. When I got home, I discovered I was bleeding, raw, and still had numerous hairs left. I immediately called and went back today for a "retouch" with Kristin. She was kind, professional, and quick--exactly how it should have been the first time. At checkout, I brought up the situation and requested a refund for yesterday's service. Unfortunately, the front desk employee was too new to process it, so I was told management would call me. As of now, I'm still waiting for that call. I used to love coming here, but all the skilled waxers seem to be gone, and management's lack of communication and follow-up is disappointing. For such a personal and vulnerable service, clients deserve to feel safe, respected, and cared for. Sadly, I can no longer recommend this location.

The spa pedicure with Sam B. Was amazing today! I was able to book online for the same day, and she…read moreeven got me in a tad early. First of all this pedicure is truly a spa experience. It is in a quiet room with one other pedicure chair, with low lighting, soft music playing, and fresh smelling aromatherapy. I'm not a huge fan of scents but they used real essential oils (not fragrance), and they were so calming and pleasant. The pedicure starts with a brief foot soak in a warm and relaxing seat. Once you soak for a few minutes they give you a blanket, a warm neck wrap, and recline the chair to zero gravity, and give you an eye cover. I genuinely fell asleep as soon as she started to massage my feet. The experience was 10/10, and I will definitely be recommending this place to everyone! Thanks Sam for an amazing pedicure.

She really wanted a massage but was nervous- so I figured being in the same room would help. She has Jessica who was so sweet and explained everything to her. I don't recall the name of the lovely person who worked on me, but she was sublime! I swear at one point I thought she had extra hands.. haha. Both of our massages were top notch. I've had a lot of massages in a lot of fancy places, but this massage was probably the best one I've ever had. I came back for a hydra facial and saw Jessica, again. She did such an amazing job, I ended up getting a massage package deal. I feel like that one facial did wonders. I don't plan ever going anywhere else.

Seemed like we'd been friends for years. Super clean and cute salon. Maddie is hilarious and adorable. And she made me gorgeous. I have 2 young kids and having my eyebrows always done helps me be at least a little bit more presentable when I have to make pretend YouTube videos and tik toks with them. I'm also now super pretty while I frantically run them to preschool because I spent too much time, I don't know what I do. The time just disappears. I'll be going back soon to get a touch up and to get my lashes done. Thanks Maddie!!

If you are looking for an AMAZING and I mean OUT OF THIS WORLD experience with your eye brows,…read moreplease look no further! Hear me out... I was super skeptical to try a new place to get my eyebrows done because I did not think that there would be much difference when it came to who did my eyebrows but WOW was I wrong, and I am so glad that I made a change. From the moment that I walked into the studio to the moment I left I felt totally comfortable and welcomed. Madeline is honestly one of the nicest, if not the nicest, person you will ever meet. Not only is she incredibly kind, but she is also meticulous and super professional in her work. Since COVID hit, it is safe to say I totally let my eyebrows grow wild and I was worried that my eyebrows would be hard to shape again but Madeline assured me that this was not the case and she would be able to get me looking fabulous again. Before waxing my eyebrows, she took the time and made a plan on how to do my eyebrows based on my facial features and explained everything to me. I appreciate that she explained everything because I felt like I was a part of the whole process and understood why certain things were being done. She truly understands that each and every person's facials features are different, and as such every person's eyebrows need to reflect that. Did I already say WOW because let me just say again WOW. When I left, I honestly could not believe how outstanding my eyebrows looked. Madeline made me feel like a totally new person, and next time I need my brows done I know exactly where I am going ! Thanks so much Mad Beauty Bar !!

She made me feel comfortable and welcomed She also is very knowledgeable about the wax and medical hx/medications due to illinesses/diseases/medicationa can interfere with things you get done I will be coming back to her! She does facials also!
