I used the UD Razor sharp eyeliner once and was unhappy with the results. It flaked off in a matter of minutes. It is supposed to be long lasting water resistant. I decided to go to the store to return it and hoped to be directed to another product to try. I was not greeted as I entered the store. There were several employees on the floor and I walked to the counter where there was a customer making a purchase. I waited , an employee asked if I was being helped with the return. I said no. And she walked away After several minutes an employee opened another cash and asked how she could help. I explained the issue with the eyeliner, and I asked if she could suggest a replacement. She didn't seem very knowledgeable about the products, and even though I repeatedly told her that I wanted a liquid liner, she kept showing me pencils Liner. Finally another employee asked if we needed help. She suggested a liquid liner, but I needed a colour, not just black. Both said that there were no other liquid water resistant liner available In colours. I finally settled on a Stila liner. When I got home I looked at the sephora site and discovered that there were other options for what I wanted. Had the employees been more knowledgeable, I would have gotten a refund and ordered the item I really wanted online. I reached out to customer service and was told that I would be contacted by the manager of the store within 5-7 business days. It has been 2 weeks and have NOT heard word one !!!!

I convinced my friend it would be a good opportunity to get a mani-pedi together, so we thought that we'd try MK out. Owing to the fact that this business is run out of her home, the setting seems a bit odd at first, but immediately becomes comfortable and, of course, homey. Maria has been in business for many years in various locations, but now runs everything from the comfort of her own house. Maria uses OPI products and provided us with a great foot mask and scrub. She's attentive to detail, and we both had a lot of fun trading stories and relaxing while we had our mani-pedis done. If you are looking for a relaxing place that is much less fussy that a large salon, I'd suggest you trust Maria. Prices are fair and her selection of polish colours are great. Also, she has a range of products available on site, too!

Her salon, which is within her very respectable home, is amazingly calming and lets me release any stresses of my life while I am pampered with a pedicure, manicure, facial, hair cut or body wraps. Being apart of her email distribution list keeps me updated on the excellent specials she releases. (Sometimes I purchase multiple purchases up front at a discounted rate, and then it allows me to make sure to take time for myself throughout the year, everyone needs a little deserved R&R :)) Thanks Maria for your continued great service!

Last month I realized I needed a haircut more then I have ever needed a haircut in my entire life…read more My hair had not been trimmed in several months, I had 6-month old half-grown out colour that had faded to the max, and I was *thisclose* to taking the razor to the whole thing ala. Britney. I am particular about my hair and about it looking good so I don't like to trust it to just anyone. Seeing as my hairstylist I have had since BIRTH is in Cole Harbour, I now live in the North end of Halifax with no car, and she is extremely hard to get an appointment with anyway, I decided it was high time to find a place in my own hood. I had noticed Flaunt salon open up a few months before (it opened mid-October 2010) because I walk by the old house it's located in every day after work (you can't miss that big, round window in the front!). It looked like a nice, fun place, plus, you can't beat a 5 minute walk from my apartment. So, I thought I would give it a try. Well, seriously I think I had the best haircut of my LIFE that day. Now, I really really needed a haircut so to be honest, ANY change to my style would probably have made me completely over-the-moon, but it was more than that. I was randomly paired up with Laurel and she was lovely - very friendly with a sunny personality - so I felt in good hands right from the beginning. I brought a picture to give her an idea of the kind of look I wanted and she made it look exactly like that! She gave me a great asymmetrical bob style with tons of layers, but kept it long enough that I could still pull at least the front back - you know, she actually LISTENED to me (which doesn't always happen at salons, am I right, other high-maintainence hair people?). The salon itself is small (I think only 5 chairs) and so it's quiet but also encourages conversation amongst patrons. There is an air of exclusivity to it - like you are at a place that requires you to make an appointment 6 months in advance and where you could easily shell out $200 for a cut. Now, don't get me wrong, this place is a tad pricey - I was actually surprised when she told me the total at the end of my appointment and it came to $57 before tip (so almost $70 total - eeps). However, to me it was worth it because she did a great job with my cut. Also, I don't necessarily mind paying a bit more money for the convenience and experienced stylists. Unfortunately I can't speak for how much a colour or other treatments would cost but I imagine they are not cheap either. One thing that I also found a tad odd was that they don't take credit cards (only debit, cash or cheque) so those of you on a budget and who like your plastic, be forewarned. Also keep in mind that they have more limited hours than other salons (the latest they are open is 8pm and that's only one or two nights a week I think...the other nights I believe it is 6pm) and they are limiting their hours even more over the summer, so book at least a week ahead. One thing is for sure about this place - you will definitely walk out of here with something to Flaunt!

Also, don't expect a hand exfoliation, massage or even simple buffing of your nails. What you get is quite basic! Not a great selection of nail polish colours but that depends on individual taste. Friendly staff though and very good pedicures, if you're lucky and got a good tech.

I went to Imagine (IN TEARS) with hair that was literally fried off to the point that I didn't want to leave the house. I was so used to having long healthy hair. Marcy calmed me down, and went over my options. After the first appointment my hair was on the mend. After a few treatments and Marcy getting my hair to where it needed to be we decided to do Babe Extensions. VOILA I had long hair again. She did such an amazing job installing my extensions, there was no issues with them, and I am now addicted to them. Thank you Marcy, You truly are amazing!! The rest of the staff is very friendly and helpful, its an all around enjoyment to go to the salon. Always filled with interesting conversations and laughs. Can't wait for my next appointment!
