This location seems to be very inconsistent which is unfortunate as I visit this location the most because it's the most convenient for me. This visit, I went in for an upper lip and brow waxing which they've previously done as a combo for about $12/13 before tips. This time, however, I was not getting what I expected although I asked the salesperson at the desk upon entering the store. I asked her if they still had the upper lip and eyebrow waxing combo to which she replied yes, so I decided to go for it (I know different stores have different prices, so I make sure to ask every time I go just in case changes occur). The lady who did my waxing was quick and efficient, while still taking the care to pluck the tiny hairs that broke during the waxing (the ladies who have done my previous waxes here have all been quick and pretty skilled, which is always a positive!). However, I was in for a shock when I went back to the desk to pay. The girl there asked me if I just had my brows waxed; I told her that I did the upper lip as well, even though she was the one who I asked for the prices first, and billed me $18 before tips (I asked my friend about it after as it didn't sit well with me; she confirmed I was overcharged and that she gets her whole face done for less than that!). When I asked about the combo again she replied that they "never had something like that" before, which was odd to me because the price is one of the reasons I come to this store and the reason I decided to get these services this visit. When I told her that they did before which is why I asked about it in the first place, she was still adamant about never having a deal for the brows and upper lip waxing and asked when I last visited which was a couple of months ago. Having had a previously horrible experience with a botched hair colouring session and knowing how unbudging their associates are here, I decided to cut my losses, paid and was given a stamp card; which I will quite likely not be using as I don't plan on returning.
I understand if prices may have changed and if deals like that aren't offered anymore. But to be told that they never had a deal like that before when it is literally the deal I got the last time I visited just doesn't seem right. I went to their website later to see their new prices, unfortunately, the "beauty bar pricelist" button doesn't work. Read Less
