Skin Deep Skin & Beauty Concepts

If I could give this place no star I would. DO NOT go into this place. I went their to get my nails done and it was the worst manicure I have ever had. It was uneven and it did not cover my nails. It was a simple French with a silver line underneath, the silver was clumpy and crooked The worst part was when I left its started to come off in minutes.

Yikes. They were very nice but the manicures my friend and I got were laughable. The girl obviously didn’t know what she was doing and made crooked messy lines on my French manicure. They were all over the place. It took so long, I just let her do it after 3 or 4 tries, which she knew on her own were too bad to leave there.
I would have just laughed it off and left it at that but, worse, my friend’s started to peel five minutes after we left. So she went back and asked for her money back. They basically called her a liar and threatened to call the police. After a lot of arguing they refunded $ 20 out of the $ 30 it cost because they «shaped her nails.» That part was weak at best. It’s ok but I’ve had much better elsewhere.
So yeah, don’t waste your time or money.

I’ve been coming here since I went to a prom back in 2010. I began with my eyebrows now Misa is my go to girl for all things wax: eyebrows, chin, underarms, and brazilians. She’s the sweetest woman ever. I have thick eyebrows and I find that people too often slim them up but she never does that. She keeps them thick and neat which is what I prefer. She’s a firm believer in being hairless and she does her best to make you comfortable. Over the years she’s shown an interest in me in general and I feel like more than a client. She asks me questions about my life, follows up on visits so really she’s more like a friend at this point. I honestly love her. She’s the type of woman who will wax something extra if she keeps you waiting for an appointment. If you stumble into Skin Deep Skin I highly recommend Misa although May and Kim are also nice if Misa is booked.

Best facial ever! I did a series of mini facial with glycolic acid treatment with Kim (the owner) who was very attentive and knowledgeable, extremely pleasant. She asked me a lot of questions about my skin and cleansing routine.
The facial she gave me was pure magic. She did lots of extractions and exfoliation. She was precise and gentle, and the products (Dr. Murad) she used were so good. I’ve gone to expensive places before and the results didn’t come close to what I received after my treatments. I’m thrilled with the results and receiving nice compliments — never happened before.
The price is incredible and worth every penny. I was curious that she would push her products for me to buy (like the rest of them) but nothing of the sort, instead, she gave me lots of samples when I left.
The entire staff is so very pleasant and the place is clean. Ok, so the room I went in was small but I don’t live there and nothing will keep me from going back. In fact, from now on I plan on going every 6 weeks for my facial.
Give this place a try and ask for Kim for your facials you won’t regret it!

Randomly I walked in here before getting my nails done next door at Fashion Nails just to ask about prices and services. Kim told me it was
$ 30 for a wash/​cut/​dry and I was flabbergasted. I made an appointment to come in later that evening.
I opted for a bob and I loved it. Kim was awesome. I made a mental note to make an appointment within the next 2 months for a trim to upkeep the style.
I returned about 2 months later (the other day) and decided to keep the style but go a few inches shorter with partial medium blonde highlights. Needless to say I love it and still getting used to how short it is! I was super sleepy that day and they offered me a cup of tea! Super sweet of the salon to do that. Kim was super in terms of giving me a professional opinion for a hair color. I’ll be returning soon for other services that they offer!

$ 7.00 eyebrow wax walk-​in
Misa put a nice arch in & my eyebrows weren’t too thin. She tried getting me to come back for an appointment for a bikini wax. Also she told me she worked there for 19 years (from her wax job she knows what’s she doing. so go see her!!!)

Misa is the best! Go to her for all your waxing appointments. She is super sweet & friendly. Will come back. The price is very reasonable too, definitely a lot cheaper than Boston salons
The salon itself is very clean & the other staff are welcoming & professional

I made a Unilocal account just so that I could post this review. For my experience– 1 star is far too much.
Do NOT enter this place if you are planning to dye your hair an ombré style. I went in yesterday to get an ombré and there was a complete level of miscommunication. First off, she acted like she knew what she was doing– so I didn’t think there was anything to be worried about. She totally misunderstood what I wanted. Not only that but even IF she had understood what I was asking for — she butchered the job. She does not know how to blend leaving me with VISIBLE lines of where she placed the toner. I mean literal layers. (See photo.)
My hair is STRIPED ORANGE and YELLOW. I really can’t even look at myself without crying. I won’t even let my family see my hair, that’s how horrible it is… My hair is currently tucked into a beanie and I’m not leaving my house.
Struggling to keep it together I left the place in hysterics and cried all night because of what K had done to my once beautiful hair. My hair used to be something that me and the people around me cherished. I cannot believe I trusted my virgin hair to a «salon» that was not reccomended to me.
It was such a nightmare and still is. She shouldn’t have acted like she knew what she was doing. Im pretty sure she knew she fucked up. It was so bad that before leaving I made another CORRECTION appointment right away to return for the first slot on Monday.
I’m not even sure if I want to go back to her to get it corrected (if it even can be). To be honest I just want my money back ($ 115) so I can take it to a place that knows what they’re doing.

Just horrible. Got a eyebrow wax done. Went and came out looking the same. All she did was break some hair. Just ughhh. They use to be good now it’s just pure crap.

First off I am a nail tech and I speak Vietnamese (their language) I do not look Vietnamese so you can say I go in“undercover“
I had Misa for my full services and she’s simply amazing. Leaves you spotless down there and quick!!!
I highly recommend her for quality work and if you want to laugh.
The ladies do not talk about customers they talk about the shows they watched last night and their gardens and they make jokes about EACH OTHER when they laugh out loud. Just a fun fact for those who feels like they are talking about you they aren’t they don’t really care if you have bad toes, they see it all the time.

I have been going for waxing here for 6 years and I love it!!! The prices are reasonable and all the staff is great and very polite! I have tried other places when I needed to go on a Sunday and I have regretted it! Highly recommend it for waxing!!!

The only service I get at this place is my eyebrows done. Its a small hole in the wall type of place, but their artisitc ability with eyebrows is the best it gets. Im not sure about their other services as I see some people are complaining. I can only vouch for their eyebrow waxing. Its pretty cheap also (7 bucks) and much better then some spas ive been to. I never have to make an appoointment either. I just was right in usually after getting me nails done accross the street. The only thing that sucks is their parking! Its hard to ever find it. I usually park at a nearby bank hoping i dont get towed.

This place is awful and extremely dirty/​disgusting. I had a scrub here and the woman repeatedly tried to rub my privates — I ended the session and ran out of there covered in salt! I even had to ask for a towel to cover myself — she expected me to lie there entirely naked. They used Dermalogica products so I thought it would a good/​decent salon, even though I thought twice once I was brought into the treatment room which was extremely questionable. It taught me to «go with your gut» — if it looks bad and seems bad it just might be — really bad!!!

You get what you pay for. Even though they are the cheapest, I had a HORRENDOUS EXPERIENCE getting my eyebrows done. They literally took off 90% of one entire brow and that’s DEFINITELY NOT what I wanted. To top it off, they didn’t even apologize and they still expected me to pay.
Never have gone back since.

Tried out this place because I wanted eyelash extensions done and I didn’t want to pay the hefty price ($ 150+) for them to be done at a grand salon.
This place is fairly easy to get to, so 5 stars on location since it is basically on the main road in Quincy, just be careful when you cross the street, Quincy drivers are aggressive!
Loved the girls there since they are clearly very efficient, I barely waited 10 minutes and the whole time, the girl who was going to help me kept coming over to assure me that she would take good care of me and «only 5 more minute, ok?» I had a wedding to go to that day so I was really nervous about time, so these assurances were very welcome.
Now, I adored the girl who did my lashes and clearly, she has done them multiple times, so I had no problem with her or the salon at all. My problem was with the lashes themselves, I guess I should have read Unilocal reviewers more clearly before coming here. The lashes are put on with a thick black glue and no, unlike usual eyelash extensions, here they are put directly on the skin and not on the lash. I only realized this when they started to fall out about 5 days later (that’s some really strong glue), and I wanted to pull the rest out so I wouldn’t look freaky. My god, they hurt like hell. It was like a little black plastic leech that would let go. Eventually, I just accepted that they were just going to have to come off on their own and just wore sunglasses everywhere so no one would notice all the crooked lashes.
But to be fair, this place was good for what you pay — but next time, I think I’ll just shell out the extra $ 80+ and get real eyelash extensions.
This place is very dirt cheap and very popular. I got there when it opened on a Saturday and already there was a small line. They do take walk ins, but it is best to just schedule an appointment and get there EARLY. Otherwise, since they have so much turn over, your spot will be given to someone else.

Love Skin Deep Skin.
The ladies are nice, the work is good, the prices are more than reasonable.
There’s a lot going on in the salon. It’s not super condusive to relaxation and does not have a ‘spa’ atmosphere but the reasonable prices and the fact that you can run in off the street for a mani/​pedi and a wax, and leave with money in your pocket, more than makes up for the décor.
I’ve had my lashes done three times here, two out of three were excellent. Once they seemed a little uneven but I called and they told me to come right in and the fixed them.
They do a great bikini wax as well!

Compared to the hefty Newbury street prices, this salon is DIRT CHEAP! So I trekked out to Quincy to try it out.
It was actually really awkward walking in. Everyone in the salon stopped and stared… and after a bit of hesitation, I mustered «…hi…I would like some eyelash extensions…» after that, everythig went fairly well.
I found it pretty unnerving that my eyelash lady kept going «ai yai yai» and was constantly talking on the phone. It was not conducive to a comfortable environment!
In the end, I’m OK with my extensions… it was my first time afterall… and I feel like my eyes are either crooked or the lashes were applied pretty lopsidedly. However, my friends say they’re pretty symmetrical and that they look great. Hey, if it looks great foe the very low price of 60 bucks, I have nothing more to say.

I have been going here for about 4years now for my eyebrows and i am satisfied every time. The staff is very friendly & you can’t beat the price! $ 7 for eyebrow waxing is great, compared to $ 14 and up at salons closer to my house. It is def worth the drive. Last year, I started treating my grandmother to pedicures there and she is in love with getting them done! She is always excited to go in and chit chat with the staff, who ALWAYS remember her and come walk over to see how she is doing. Recently I started getting my toes done as well and I now see why my nana loves it so much. It is so refreshing and relaxing and the staff does a great job! $ 20 is a great price and the $ 10 manicure to follow is a must! I will be a customer here for a long time

Before I moved away to the west coast, I always go here for waxing. And I always book for May. She is awesome. She understands exactly how I want it and is so consistently — the right arch and thickness. My eyebrow always come out looking clean and sharp. I have tried some other ladies and they all seem to be eyebrow expert, but they don’t know me and give me the perfect eyebrow that I desire like May did.
I still miss the place.

Eyelash Extensions…
Love em but please go to another place to get them done. Went in asking for a natural but glamorous set of lashes and came out looking like a drag queen. The lady was nice and courteous but she went overboard. The glue that they use here was very harsh! Stung my eyes and irritated the crap out of my nasal passages. Price is cheap compared to other places but you get what you paid for.
