Absolutely loved it! Addi was so fun and nice to be with. Made sure I was comfortable and made sure to make it look good. She did my eyebrows so well which I’m grateful for. She was so sweet to talk to and I just felt so cared for. 1000/10. Will be going back just to get my hair played with.

I had my hair trimmed and eyebrows waxed and both services were great. Also had a hydrating facial which was nice but more of a cleansing and brief massage than a typical facial with extractions etc.
