I am extremely disappointed by my experience at the Smithfield location. I went last month and…read moredidn't have a great experience but I went back the other day since I live five minutes away. I will not be back. The waxes laid the wax all one way, not caring which way my hair grew (especially on my back thigh). She also laid wax the length of my entire leg and left the wax on for a long time while laying 3 other strips. My legs are so irritated. I have been doing monthly leg waxes for years and this has never happened. The wax kept breaking (probably because the wax was left on my legs for so long). There's parts of my legs that look like I shaved because the hair is just cut and not pulled out. Besides that, so much hair was left. She also told me the inner thighs were not included in my leg service. Again, I've been getting leg waxes for years at EWC and have never had strips of inner thigh hair left. She said she would do it for me even though it's not included. However, I'm going to need to get another leg wax in a week to get all the cut hairs left over. What a waste of $100! Also, the waxed was extremely unprofessional. She checked her phone whenever it buzzed, leaving my leg wax on longer. She also talked about how busy she was the other day, waxing forty individuals. She told me when she went home she had to ask someone if she smelled like "coochie and ass". Talk about unprofessional and extremely uncomfortable while I was naked on the table.

I usually have a great experience at European wax but I was very disappointed this time. Bella who…read moredid my eyebrows seems like she might be new? Only took 9 mins on my brows, barely cleaned them up only waxed the stray hairs around the eyebrows did not shape them at all. When I asked her if she could trim the longer hairs, there wasn't a single pair of scissors in the entire place to trim them. $23 is insane for what I received. Very disappointed.

I'm hoping that my relationship with Skin Essentials will be a fruitful one! It started off as…read moresuch! After purchasing a recent Groupon for laser hair removal treatments, I went for my first appointment this afternoon. As a newbie to this method, I was a bit nervous and curious about what to expect. I opted to get my underarms done and was assured by the receptionist (and technician!) that it will be completely worth it in the end. Apparently I'll want to wear tank tops all the time once I'm done! The interior of this business is well decorated, comforting, and exudes the quality of a spa. While I waited for my appointment, I sat on a plush red couch, surrounded by the smell of scented candles, and drawn to the Keurig coffees and teas available. My appointment was actually later in the day than I had originally made it for. I was called the day before and informed that a piece needed to be replaced on the laser machine and that they needed to reschedule with me. After much apologizing, I received an appointment later in the day and was told I'd be called in the morning to inform me of the progress of their fix. I received my call today and drove on over. For having had to reschedule, my wait was very quick. She brought me in the treatment room, explained the whole process, gave me a chance to ask any questions I had, and was very attuned to my needs during the entire procedure. I have to say. . . hair follicles certainly do not go out without a fight! I can't say that the procedure was comfortable, but the staff do their best to decrease your discomfort. I was given stress balls to squeeze (which at first reminded me of the "here bite on this so I can chop off your leg" type medicine of the distant past) and had a blast of cold air on my skin during the procedure to take the edge off. The technician did a good job talking to me throughout which also helped distract me from the needle-like pain of the laser. Had I needed her to stop at any time, she was more than willing to do so to give me a break. The actual procedure took less than 15 minutes and I was truly in and out of the office. I was given post care instructions and encouraged to call if I had any further questions or concerns. While I'm not looking forward to the procedure again, I'm definitely looking forward to the results. I'll have to update a long time from now when all six sessions are complete to review the results!

This place is a good example of "too big for your britches." They use a special kind of laser -…read morethey say its top of the line, etc, etc - but it seems to be less effective for hair removal than the typical candela that shoots you in the face. This one requires gel to be applied to you - which is nice and cool - but very messy. Also, they require you to bring in your own anti-inflammation gel and clean your face before arriving - they don't have any themselves. Usually, spas will give you some witch hazel to clean the area and hydrocortisone afterwards. This place recommends both, but doesn't supply them. Donna, the owner, is superficially very nice but not great with customer service. When I asked her about the equipment used, she told me to ask the woman who would be doing the service. When I asked the woman doing the service, she told me to ask Donna. Hm...

It was fun for me to listen to conversations around, and also be included in them, while not being a regular. I also feel like Tayla really means what she says - I didn't feel pressure to book an appointment, I commented on how my last hair cut was all uneven and I was cutting off like three inch chunks when I left and I know I don't go often but I still want a solid cut when I do and I felt like she meant it when she validated my opinion. The location is convenient for me, it was easy to book, and I have long hair that I actually like right now. I look forward to going back and may try and make it happen sooner than six months.
