Dear reader, I moved…read morefrom Los Angeles to Jacksonville as a social worker affiliated with a well known veteran's service organization and was in desperate need of self care! I tried several places in Jacksonville (med spas, private businesses, etc) and they didn't provide the same kind of luxury in services as I found in places like Beverly Hills and LA. Luckily, I found Carla and Embrace Your Own Esthetics, which was a game changer! Carla REALLY knows her stuff and is quite knowledgeable; she blew me away actually with how individualized her care was: I have gone to her now for eyelash extensions, facials (including a facial using her amazing, top of the line:high-end machine that has done wonders for my skin) and back facials. (I'm also planning to make an appt for a paraffin treatment and eyebrow wax when soon). The amazing thing about Carla is that she cares. In fact, I am pretty sure she is an angel. She has done many things to accommodate me and I get the sense would do so for you, and anyone that goes to her studio for her services. For example, she scheduled me in early in the morning last minute and late at night a couple times per my request as if it was no big deal and that meant so much to me given my ridiculously busy and rigid work schedule so I could enjoy some self-care! Also, her pricing is the best I have ever seen. She offers specials and when I asked about this out of shock because she is so talented, she was also so kind about this; when I asked about it, she said she wants to be sure people from all socioeconomic backgrounds have the opportunity to feel beautiful and/or engage in self care!! Finally, I started to really trust her and her talents, so I asked her to lead an event as a philanthropist for the veterans service org I mentioned earlier. She agreed and then she changed her entire travel schedule around so she could do it and offered quite a bit of goodies and support for clients who have almost nothing because she really cares. If you are a regular with skincare and keep it up, I truly believe you'll love her and appreciate her talent even if it's a change from your regular provider. On the other hand, if you are new to skincare and self care, I think you will love her and appreciate her services. She caters to individuals specific needs and skin care goals like I have never experienced before with such a pro and and will answer any question and help problem solve any skincare question or issue you may have for best possible outcomes for your skin. That said, although she's so humble, I probed a bit and learned she has also been trained in LA, Japan and just got back from Greece essentially training others because she is so skilled as an esthetician. Lastly, her studio is safe, cute and lovely. I fell asleep a couple of times as she worked on my skin and it was amazing and deeply relaxing. (As an aside, also, a month of seeing her, two colleagues have mentioned how great and glowy my skin looks)! As a social worker, our duty is to look out for members of our community, so I say this without any hesitation: don't wait and do yourself a kindness and book an appt (she has such an easy way of doing it on her website)! You deserve it! I truly believe you will be so pleased with your treatment outcomes, Carla's beautiful studio, her astounding attention to detail, your needs and Carla herself (who is so very thoughtful and attentive). She's been the best esthetician I have EVER been to! My skin looks the best it ever has and so are the eyelashes I get to rock because of her attention to detail and patience.

The hairdressers really good. The biggest problem are the sinks…read more A lady had a stroke because of how her head was tilted in the sink. It was on Action News Jax. The condition is called V.A.D. or beauty parlor syndrome. The owner is the one who is responsible for furnishings. Those sinks are antiquated. If you do go there, INSIST you have multiple towels put under your head before you lean back into the sink.

I saw great reviews online and this prompted me to consider this salon…read more I called right away and scheduled an appointment for the following week with the receptionist. The day of the appointment we recieved a phone call to arrive early 15-20 min and not to be late. As requested we arrived early, upon getting there while getting out of car we receive a call from the salon they are about 30-45 min late. It's now 20 min we are waiting and are told it's going to be another hour to one n half hours more. (Strike one) This is not acceptable. We spoke to a woman there and said sue previous client hair didn't turn out right and needs to redo it. That should have been our red flag to leave. (Strike two) Giving them the benefit of the doubt we waited. The appointment was for a full spiral perm with volume. 5 HOURS later the hair if finished? The hair is a regular perm and flat like a pancake. No volume no spiral curled just waves. Called to speak to the manager. No manager available. Asked for the owner, on vacation. Called a few days later said to come in s her best stylist Kathleen will fix.? Really ? Hair still looks flat, perm was not redone and still not happy at all. They charged 125.00 for what Then give you hair care products. I would most definitely NOT recommend this salon.

I can't scream enough positive words about this hair place and the awesome ladies that work here…read more Nikki, the owner, has maintained this small woman owned business for over a decade. With Covid 19 amongst us, they practice CDC safety. The best part is they have always been a clean establishment. Once you walk in you are greeted with a family type atmosphere where you must wash your hands before being shown to your sanitized chair. Nikki is amazing with determining the best style for your hair. Want it to grow? Nikki is amazing at making hair grow. She has a mother's touch with your hair. I believe the greatest part to going to Inner Beauty Boutique is they do not overbook appointments. Any woman that has ever gone to a beauty shop has experienced the long exhausting wait from over booking. You won't have that here. Don't get me wrong. There is a wait list to get in but when you do get an appointment you will not be disappointed for sure. In this time of financial crunch, know that their prices have not gone up. That in itself is an astoundingly wonderful feature. Check out her prices. She can do 99% of any hairstyle you bring her a picture of. If she can't one of her salon staff most certainly may be able to.

I booked at 8:45am appointment with Amelia. I got shampooed around 9:15. The shampoo was Nairobi…read morehowever it didn't have the greatest smell to it. I could barely smell anything for that matter. After she got done washing my hair I was left to sit almost 45 mins at the shampoo bowl with a towel over my head. With the ideology of " letting the water drain out of my dreadlocks" which I have never heard of before. After waiting 45 mins I finally got in the seat for a retwist. I was told she uses a foam and the other product she uses I actually had to look and see what it was myself, because she didn't say what it was. The retwist was ok but it seem to take forever and I finally went under the dryer for and 45-60 mins. After sitting under the dryer she finally comes over and takes out the bands or whatever it was to hold the locs out because it wasn't the typical clips. And then says well your done... didn't spray any type of oil in my locs or anything. I'm glad I only paid 54.00 for a retwist because her salon etiquette was very off. The shop can do better as far as cleanliness, and the young girls that work their look fresh outta beauty school. I left this shop at 12:30 to get a wash and retwist. When I booked online my time slot was for 8:45-10:30. I would never return here. If I hadn't booked online I would have left when I sat at that shampoo bowl for 45 mins with nothing in my hair.
