| - I saw this place listed on Groupon and because of the reviews listed on Yelp, I decided to buy it. I'm not sure what the other reviewers had threaded, because maybe this place is only decent when working on eyebrows, but I had an absolutely horrible experience. Not sure what the lady's name was but she was middle-aged, heavy-set, and wore glasses. Here are the details:
My Groupon was $12 for eyebrows, upper lip, and chin threading. When I arrived I let the lady know that I'd like my sides done too. She said it would be $12, I said fine. When I got in the chair the lady exclaimed about 3 times, "That's a lot of hair!" Now, I'm a woman. I don't have hair on my face like a man. I have a layer of fine hair on my face that I'm weary about constantly removing because of numerous bad experiences I've had with waxing AND threading. Last time I was threaded by a different place, I broke out really badly after. I was a bit offended that she was saying I had so much hair and thought that was unprofessional. Then she does the threading and I'm half holding my breath the whole time because the lady had bad body odor. When she was done, she hands me a mirror and I see numerous spots that she missed. I pointed these out to her and I had to tell her to do more 2 more times still. Not sure if she just can't see well or if it was the dim lighting or if she just didn't care, but she did a terrible job. By that time I was so over the whole experience, I just wanted to leave, so I said that's fine. I get up to pay and she tells the cashier, "It's $24 for her. And she has that Groupon thingy." I tell the cashier, $24?!! She told me $12. It was only my sides that she did beyond the Groupon. The cashier looks at me and says it was $12 for 1 side. I shook my head, held my tongue(because I'm not the type to cause a scene) and paid. That was a complete lie. The price menu says "SideS" not "SidE" and that was not the price I was told before I sat down. I ended up paying $36 total for upper lip, cheeks, chin, and eyebrows(which I only asked her to get the stray hairs because my eyebrows are pencil thin)... that's MORE THAN THE COST FOR FULL FACE, which is $30!!!! What a SCAM!! So as you can imagine, I left EXTREMELY upset about the whole experience. And on top of that, when I get outside and look at my face in the car mirror, this lady left spots of hair EVERYWHERE!! I felt horrified and ANGRY. I was going to have to go to another place to get the hair removed or go home and spend an hour tweezing them myself. Because I will NEVER step a foot in this place ever again and I will tell EVERYONE I know about what a horrific CON this place is!! I hope that extra money they scammed me out of was worth losing a lot of business.
