One of the Business' Favorite Reviews What's This?
I have been going to Luiz Salon for over 2 years now. Simone does the best brazilian waxes in the world. She actually goes in and makes sure she gets every last piece of hair. If you are looking for a nice place with a great decor, you won't find it there. For $30 a wax, you are definitely getting your monies worth.
My first Brazilian wax. Cue dramatic music. Sigh. I was completely nervous as hell entering Luiz Hair Salon. I came with a friend of mine who wasn't new to waxes down town. She assured me that it wasn't that bad. We'll see about that, I told her.
Simone was really sweet and took me to the waxing room in the back where she told me to remove my underwear. This wasn't something I'd typically do upon meeting someone new - but the circumstances called for it. She asked me how I wanted it waxed to which I told her, Take it all off. I thought this was going to be the most painful experience of my life only to realize it wasn't bad at all! The whole process lasted about 20 minutes and wasn't even all that painful. I've had worse paper cuts.
This place is not some super swank salon, but if what you're concerned with is quality services then its the right place for you. Simone did a great job. She was knowledgeable about her craft and really wanted to get every last hair. I will definitely be returning!
After I saw this $30 brazilian offer, I had to try it.
I made my appt. for 6pm Tuesday. The green line sux.
Its a little walk from Harvard Ave T stop, but I still had to hustle since I made the appt. during rush hour. (Note to self: never again!)
I get there right at 6. Its kind of chaotic at first impression, theres like a little shop or some kind of business to the left as soon as you walk in. The reception area to the salon is just a ltitle pass this small narrow hallway.
Simone greeted me but asked if I could wait a few minutes while she finished her coffee ( I think i heard her say) but i keep telling myself customer just to make myself feel like she didnt seriously ask me to wait while she finished her coffee..
12 minutes later, she was ready. She takes me to the back and its a bit sketchy but then leads me to a tiny room in the back.
She is in the room as you undress, this I have tiffs about. can I have some privacy as I undress waist down?
Ok down to business, the table/bed is a bit high for me as I had to hop up on it.
So it begins, aside from waxing the usual, she also plucks, pops and attempts to get out alll ingrown hair ( sorry TMI)
the finished product is awesome.
hairfree and very clean. she also cleans you up very nicely making sure to leave no trace of wax.
We didnt talk at all during the prcoess which is fine by me, i rather relax.
overall, Simone did a great job and for $30, you cant beat the price.
If you dont need a fancy schmancy spa/salon, then Luiz hair Salon is a good stop for your waxing needs.
so in my attempt to find a cheaper, i mean, less expensive brazilian wax, (cheap and brazilian wax should never be in the same sentence, btw) i researched and found..nothing. boo soooo i just asked a friend. haha and that is how i was led to Simone.
getting a brazilian wax from a brazilian is pretty cool. at least in my book. and it's a pretty darn good one (for $30!) she waxes you and gets all up in your business so she can pluck every last hair. appt. itself lasts maybe 20-30min. since she makes sure she gets every hair and that you like what you see when she's done, well, that is if you don't take everything off.
Simone is the owner, and she is also the woman who will be waxing you. she's laid-back and easy going. she'll talk to you about whatever throughout your whole appointment, if you want to talk, that is.
if you want to be waxed in a nice, fancy schmancy, pretty looking place, then you'd better go somewhere else. this is a very small salon. it's located in the little parking lot where Brooks/Dunkin Donuts is in Allston across from Burger King.
fyi, if you go at off peak hours say mon-fri between 1-4pm, you can just walk-in. no need for an appt.
OH,and if you refer 3 people, you get a free wax. =D
