- Complaint Type:
- Service or Repair Issues
- Status:
- Answered
On January 13,2024 I went to the salon to get my eyelashes nails and eyebrows done. When I was finished the lady told me she put wax on part of my eyebrow that shouldn’t be waxed. I told her I **** ** ******** ******* *** cannot go outside with wax on my eyebrows. She asked when I was off and I told her I cannot wait till then to have it removed. She didn’t have wax removal in the store. When I got home I took a nap and woke up with pink eye. I scratched my stomach and my nails popped off. They did my nails while I was doing my eye lashes so my eyes were closed and I didn’t know what they were doing. I spent $277 for nothing and they could have at least offered me a refund. The next day I found someone to take off the lashes and they said the glue they used was not lash glue because the lashes should just fall off when you apply remover.Business response

1. Eyebrow Waxing:
After an eyebrow waxing session, there may be a minimal amount of wax residue remaining, which can be easily removed during a shower using regular cosmetic cleansers or cooking oils. It's important to emphasize that we have documented evidence post-waxing, clearly showing the absence of any issues. We have immediate post-service photographs available, which can serve as evidence if needed. These pictures can be submitted to offer further clarity, ensuring transparency and addressing any concerns promptly.
2. Eyelash Extension:
In the case of eyelash extensions, a certified beauty supply professional glue is utilized to minimize the risk of allergies in our salon. It's important to note that while the vast majority of clients do not experience issues, a very small number may encounter itchiness or pink eyes due to allergies. Some customers who does not get used to the lash extensions yet could treat them wrongly as well, for example, rubbing her eyes unconsciously. The salon places a high priority on customer care and promptly addresses any post-service concerns that may arise.
3. Nail Extension:
Nail extensions were applied correctly, but it's acknowledged that sometimes, oily nails or some activities may affect the adhesion of fake nails. The salon promptly addresses any complaints and offers immediate service to rectify issues, ensuring customer satisfaction.
