Super sad to see all the bad reviews, as this place is a real gem! Maria is amazing, and she is the only person I trust with my brows. I've been going to her for a couple of years now, and have recommended several friends to her, and they all LOVE it. I am constantly getting compliments on my brows, and I think it is safe to say that Maria keeps my eyebrows on point! Definitely worth trying, don't let the bad reviews deter you, Maria is AWESOME! (although she just had a baby now, so she may reduce her workload a little)
I am shocked at the bad revies. Maria is so friendly and remembers her clients by name. She even remembered what job I had on my second appointment. She does the best eye brow threading. And the cost can't be beat. She's also continually working on improving the salon's interior!
Rhythm Spa and Maria (the owner) are excellent! I’ve been going here for about 2 years for waxing, specifically Brazilian waxing. I’ve been waxing for about 15 years and have visited too many salons to count over the years so I can tell you from experience that Maria’s spa and technique are absolutely A and hit all of my required criteria. I have not visited another salon since I found hers and I have no desire to go elsewhere – I would highly recommend! My requirements; 1. Sanitary – there is no unsanitary double dipping here! The salon, waxing table/bedding are clean and also very nicely decorated and welcoming. 2. Technique: Maria is a quality estitician, she applies wax and removes it swiftly and seamlessly. Her technique reduces the pain that can be caused by inexperienced/sloppy estiticians and it also allows for quick sessions (about 15 min) which is great if you have a very low tolerance for pain (like myself). 3. Thorough: Maria get’s everything! There are no missing spots when I get home, back to front she is very thorough. 4. Professional and friendly: Maria is a quality business woman and also very friendly. She’s great to talk to about all issues you may want to discuss in general or just casual conversation to distract you from any pain. She is very good at her job and comforting with her clients so if this is your first Brazilian & you feel embarassed, there is absolutely no need. 5. PRICE! Hands down the best around and she’s always offering promotions like student discounts and pre-paid yearly waxing packages. Don’t let her low prices fool you, you get Trump quality for a fraction of the cost!!! Lastly, she’s always been able to fit me in even on last minute requests and she is conveniently located downtown a quick walk from the Eaton’s Centre so I go there on lunch (12 min walk from the Financial District). If you live in the ‘burbs like me (Markham) she is definitely worth the trip downtown!!!
I've been to this place twice, both for Brazillian's I've bought coupons for. At first it was hard to get an appointment, but the second time was a breeze, and I actually had to reschedule this appointment twice, which they very politely accepted and even extended my coupon with a gift certificate for me, which was really nice of them. When I was waiting to be called in for my wax, I read their screen that said how only 1% of their customers leave reviews that effects 99% of their new customers, so I wanted to return the favor.
At the first waxing appointment, the owner took care of me, I believe her name was Maria. She was very gentle (I'm a bikini wax wuss, and usually complain a lot around the central areas), was quick and it hardly hurt at all. And she didn't make me do weird leg lifts that some spas do.
The second one was another worker, Nazma I wanna say. Her English wasn't the best but she tried making conversations to get my mind off of the waxing, which was nice of her. She was also very gentle and quick. I was out of there in 10-15 minutes.
Oh and neither of them double dipped in the wax, and they both used gloves. So thumbs up.
I will definitely be going back.
