Not only does the spray tan look completely natural, but Chiara does such a wonderful job of always making you feel comfortable! I always thought I would look like an umpa lumpa i...

My savior! 10/5/2011

I have been neglecting my face for too many months, and boom! The moment I cross through the door into Emily's den of beauty, I feel 25 years younger! Never-ending compliments of how dewy and fresh I appear! She works wonders - thank you, Emily! more

I can see my (beauifully-shaped) eyebrows again! 10/5/2011

Before they were light and faded away (which was probably good b/c they were really our of shape so glad no one could see them). But after Emily applied her magic, they were arched, shaped and full of color that looked so natural with my hair. And I love the hard wax method (rather than strip wax). It's almost a painless waxing. Emily really knows her stuff. Thanks for making me presentable! A very pleasant experience indeed! more

Relaxing and rejuvenating! 10/2/2011

I went in to get a Facial Plus, which included a Glycolic peel and foot scrub. Emily was super helpful in answering all of my questions and let me know what she was doing every step of the process. I also opted for a certain wax, which was over before I knew it! Knowing that each skin type and individual works differently, she didn't try and push any products my way either, which I appreciated. I'm going back in 3 weeks for another "Express Facial", too. more

An outstanding lash tint! 9/15/2011

The regular place that I visit for lash tints was booked, so I tried Emily based on all the great reviews on Yelp. I was very impressed with both Emily and my service. In fact, for the first time ever, I didn't experience tearing up from the tint procedure and it is by far the best lash tint I've ever had. Even two weeks later, my lashes look dark and thick. Emily is kind, professional, and totally put me at ease. I look forward to coming back and also trying her facials. more

Best Brazillian Wax I"ve ever Had 9/15/2011

Thank you so much Emily! This was the least painful, quickest, cleanest and generally best experience I've had with a wax. I'm generally hesitant about going in but you made the experience much better than it could have been...especially being 7 months pregnant and generally uncomfortable. I will definitely be returning! more

Thank You Emily! 9/9/2011

After my brow shape and tint and lash tint I have my brows and eyes back. She did an perfect job making my brows look just as I asked - no easy task as I asked for full/thick shape and they are sparse and fine and had been plucked way to much. She did it all with out wax as my skin is to sensitive for wax - she listened. I will be back - I'm new to the area and now have my local spot - hurrah! - Thanks again Emily, you have great skills. more

great! will be back 9/9/2011

Emily is Great. She is nice and easy to talk to and she did a great job on my brows and on my facial. Also it was a great deal! it could have been a little quiter, I suggest that she put some padding on one of the walls to block out sound. more

waxing expert! 9/8/2011

Emily puts you at ease immediately, and she is efficient and thorough! she did a wonderful work on my bikini wax, making it as painfree as possible by being quick and by distracting me with some friendly chatting. The beauty nook is cozy and warm, nicely decorated! Highly recommended! more

outstanding, knowledgeable, friendly, efficient 8/21/2011

I went to see Emily for a facial plus. Emily was very in tuned with my skin type, and made my skin glow beautifully. I also got my eyebrows waxed for the first time ever. I am ADDICTED to this now. I had a real fear of getting this done as I've seen some pretty horrid eyebrow wax jobs. I put my trust in Emily and don't regret it at all. They look fabulous. I will be returning there regularly for all my waxing needs. Thanks Emily!!!! more

Wonderful facial and great spray tan treatment! 8/19/2011

I really enjoyed meeting Emily. She was warm and professional. I had an express facial and loved it. I am going back for a full facial next time to see what that's all about. It was relaxing and enjoyable. Great ambiance. I loved the treatment room and everything was clean. My facial was followed by a spray tan treatment...the color was perfect on my fair skin and just added a kiss of sun...not too much and not too little...she chose a tone that worked well on me. I will definitely be returning. more

Made me a convert! 8/12/2011

Emily gave me my first facial, at 55! Now I know how to pamper myself. She's clear and careful, and really a pro. I'd recommend her services to anyone! more

A Pleasure from Start to Finish 8/12/2011

I booked an appointment for a lash tint after first inspecting the very nice facilities in person. It was nice that Emily was kind, low-key, and professional, but most of all it was great that she was so skilled at doing the process. A friend to whom I recommended Emily also had a very good experience. more

Experience was wonderful 7/29/2011

by Ana at Genbook Provided by Genbook
It was my first brazilian (at 9 months pregnant!) and Emily helped make me feel comfortable as I could be, not only physically but in the situation as well. Nearly painless to what j was expecting! That kind of service doesn't go unnoticed and I will return after my son is born - she's made a believer out of me! Also, I had her Yelp! special where she also dd the uv free tan on me. more

I love Emily and her facials 7/15/2011

My skin was glowing after my facial (and still is!) She gave great advice, didn't try to sell me a lot of expensive products, and provided a dreamy massage as part of the treatment. I will definitely be back! more
