Queens Waxing Center — Attraction in New York

It seems she reports reviews on here but you can see on YELP that others have had the same issues I did.

I came here a couple of times. The waxes were always painful but she was quick, so I tolerated it but the real reason I'm leaving a review now is due to my last two experiences. Problems: Skin ripped off/burned/scabbed for eyebrows and Brazilian wax, over charges, unsanitary practices & dishonesty

My skin burned and ripped off for an eyebrow wax and also burned badly and was in pain after the Brazilian wax. The second to last time I went the burn wasn't as bad. It still scabbed my eyebrows but I thought perhaps it was a fluke, my medication or hormones so I went once more (last time).

I mentioned and asked her about her using hard wax or changing products and she said she did not.

The last time my eyebrows instantly and painfully burned. I was almost in tears and splashing cold water all over my face. What really turned me off was, although she can be pleasant and nice, she has made rude comments in previous appointments but I let them go as I thought maybe we are just culturally different.

This time (the second time she burned me and ripped off skin) and I was in pain, she was unsympathetic, looked at me with disdain with a mean face (as though I was overreacting when you could see my skin torn off) and blamed ME and my skin as being the problem. I was VERY understanding and kind about this and REALLY thought perhaps it was just me..until I read other reviews online. She has had this issue before and is irresponsible and doesn't take accountability and blames others. No cultural differences. She showed she's just not that nice of a person.

Furthermore, as a test on myself, later when my hair grew out I had some hard wax at home (just a cheap hard wax brand) and decided to do a test wax to see if possibly my hormones had just changed a lot and my skin was too sensitive. I did this a day before my monthly cycle (when the skin is the VERY most sensitive) and used a cooling gel after just to make sure it was not reacting to wax OR cooling gel. Surprise-- not even HALF the pain waxing with this wax and ZERO burn, skin ripping off or redness. It was NEVER me all along and it was her and her awful products. I have never had something happen like that to me in almost 20 years of waxing.

I can accept mistakes but seeing others had the same issue and she is dishonest, doesn't take accountability and is rude is enough for me to leave this review. If anything else happens, I'll edit and update my review.

Also, here are some things she needs to improve:

A) Her prices.. she shows as charging $35 for a Brazilian and $5 for eyebrows.. $40 total... yet I was always charged $65 (and had no extras).. her pricing list needs to be updated and clear.. it's like she just thinks of what she wants to charge you and charges it

B) She re-dips the same stick back into the wax about 20-30 times. How is this sanitary? This means that we are essentially being exposed to dozens of other peoples' germs and bodily byproducts, etc.

C) It would be nice if she stepped out of the room to give a person decency to get dressed again. Not the biggest deal but would be a nice touch.

All in all, I will not be going back there. I looked up another waxing place with great reviews that describes their wax ingredients and, although a few dollars more, I went there and had a nearly painless Brazilian wax, zero burn and no bumps... just another comparison that (AGAIN) reconfirmed it was never me that was the problem but was her and her practices.

Update: It has now been over a week since I had my Brazilian wax done at the new place and I just realized I am still smooth with no painful bumps or flare ups. I got ingrowns after waxing with her all the time and really thought it was just my hair. By day 3-4 it would be bumpy and red. So this all really boils down to bad products and possibly technique but of course she blamed this on me and my hair type. EVERY....

I recently had the pleasure of visiting Queens Waxing Center, and I have to say, it was a fantastic experience from start to finish! The staff is incredibly friendly and professional, instantly putting me at ease. The space is clean, welcoming, and has a relaxed vibe, which made me feel comfortable throughout my entire visit.

The waxing service itself was quick and efficient, with attention to detail that shows they really care about their clients. The technician was gentle, explained the process, and made sure I was as comfortable as possible. I was impressed by how smooth and hassle-free the entire experience was.

If you're looking for a reliable and high-quality waxing spot, I highly recommend Queens Waxing Center. I'll definitely be...

I find it difficult to find a waxing place where my needs/wants are fulfilled. After coming here once around the beginning of this year, I became a regular customer. Its friendly customer service, cleanliness on site, good pricing and delivering efficient task are the qualities that makes me become a regular. After the Covid peak, Khrisna was kind enough to remind and offer me her service (with proper and safety precaution) despite this difficult times. I’m glad that I didn’t have to struggle dealing with my issues. They have been accommodating and communicative to me as always. I hope people will try this place and get a good experience. Keep up the...
