I usually cut my own hair but my brothers wedding is this weekend so I wanted a professional haircut. I would've been better off doing it myself. Plus $50 for a fade and a beard trim??

When it comes to the craft and art of cutting hair, clippers or scissors, the folks behind the chairs are talented. You want a fresh cut or beard trim by the some of the best? Stop in, you won't regret it. (Many of the the Iowa Hawkeyes athletes get their haircuts for the games here!) Look, I'll be honest, I read some of the other reviews and I have never seen any unprofessionalism or racial slurs ever in my time at The Lounge. I'm in there once or twice a month depending on what I have going on for the last three years, and I've never felt uncomfortable. Do they laugh, crack jokes, and banter a bit between each other? Yup! Do they talk about how the Celtics and Jason Tatum should have won last year's NBA Finals over the Warriors? Yup! But it's never anything that is rude or unprofessional. Literally kids are in there all the time with their parents getting fades for the school year if that means anything. The chairs are comfy, the music is good, and you can rest assured that you'll come out looking fly. Immaculate vibes. I've already recommended one buddy to stop going to chain places and come here, and he's never looked back. Do you want to risk a bad haircut? I don't!

All of the tattoos were done by Scotty Potty and he is a great artist, just don't let him scare you with his bitter, angry, old man thing. He is actually a super friendly guy and has a lot of interesting things to say. My one piercing done here was from Steve and it was a 0g punch on my left lobe to fix some old scar tissue. It turned out wonderfully and I couldn't be happier. Steve has a great "bed side" manner and really knows his stuff. He always explains what he is doing and what to expect next which is great. The prices are good, they have a nice selection of jewelry, and their are plenty of artists to choose from so you will probably find someone that can do whatever you have in mind. Just bring in some reference material or a solid idea and they can draw it up and jam it into your body permanently!

No razor or straight blade was use during my cut, and I wanted my head shaved bold, the gentleman that took care of me said he could only use clippers (I can do that at home myself, but I was already there), it is my birthday, so I said "oh well". Barber shops do a lot more than running clippers on your head, they use hot towels, razors, etc, this place does not qualify as a babes shop to me. I am sure they give great haircuts, just not what I wanted. Otherwise, place looks clean, the women's stylists seemed nice and very busy.

Temple Body Arts is a clean, cool looking studio. It does not try to be pretentiously hip nor over the top swanky. I worked with Nic, the owner on my latest piece. Nic was great with communication. Setting up the appointment was easy. Putting down the deposit was also very simple. He told me he would have something drawn up for me when I got there and to my surprise, he did. This was literally the first time I have ever had a tattoo artist have something drawn up before I got there. Typically they tell you they will, then they forget or get busy doing other things and have to draw something up on the spot. He worked with me on the sizing of the tattoo and the placement. In hindsight, this was also the least painful tattoo I have ever gotten. Of course, depending on where you get a tattoo will determine a lot of the pain, however, I felt he had a soft touch. Of course, none of that means anything unless the tattoo turned out the way I wanted it. I can honestly say that I am thrilled with how it turned out. So much so that I will definitely be returning for future pieces. Highly recommend the shop!

The shape was not uniform on all, and they appeared rippled, not smooth. They were wider at the tip and curved upwards. I have photos of all my fingers looking awful.

I've had nails for years and never have had any looking this horrible. Absolutely discourage anyone from going there. I would give negative stars if possible but have to pick 1 to post.

Over the 20 some years I have had waxing services, I have been to salons in multiple states and countries and not one of them can hold a candle to the professionalism, the cleanliness, and the skill of Janet.

I wish my budget would also allow for a monthly facial. She is amazing. As a matter of fact, I wish my budget would allow for ALL Of her services. Janet is one of a kind and will make you feel comfortable and cared for. I am a raving fan!!!
