Emma is AMAZING! She is so quick. And the wax was so painless that I

i agree with the person who asked where everyone is getting brazillians. i've been getting them for some time in ny/nj and this might be the best for the PRICE, but you get what ...

best eyebrows 6/30/2006

Emma is the best eyebrow waxer! I used to thread my eyebrows only but i've been going to emma for nearly 3 years now. I am terrified of going to anyone else for fear that they will uglify them. If you like fast service and a no-nonsense attitude then this is the salon for you. Pros: fast service more

It happened to me, too. 6/29/2006

I got my five-minute wax from Emma the Crazy Sadist. I didn't care how unusually painful it was and how rude she was, because - hey - bikini wax in five minutes! Sweet! Pros: You may be yelled at and accused of stealing in public; can be a long wait; very painful even for seasoned waxers Cons: Not very expensive; fast brazilian! more

fastest wax ever 5/27/2006

Don't let the atmosphere fool you, when I went, the place was empty. However, I had the fastest and most fuss-free wax in my life. No chatting, just waxing. But, Who want's to have a heart to heart with their waxer? I just want to get in and get out. International salon is like that -- I'd recommend it to all my friends. Pros: Fastest wax ever, skilled waxer Cons: decor more

1st time Brazilian!!! 5/4/2006

I was terrified to get the Brazilian wax, but this place truly is the best (as the owner will tell you...again & again! LOL! :-) It was so fast, and I don't have any pain. Also got a great manicure. Pros: Fair Price, Great Waxing, Great Manicure Cons: So-So pedicure more

Will Never Go Back 5/3/2006

Although Emma's brazilians have been named the best waxing bargain in the city, it's not worth the traumatic experience I endured. Her behavior during my wax was atrocious. She literally talked on the phone the entire time she was giving me my brazilian. No, she wasn't using a headset--she had the phone shoved between her shoulder and head as she was ripping off the wax. When the conversation got really heated, she just stopped paying attention to me entirely, and let the wax sit there for longer than usual. I went with a friend who had a relatively enjoyable experience, but I would caution others of her inconsistency and total lack of customer service. Save your money and go somewhere else. more

Wonderful Family Salon! 12/24/2004

Emma, Natasha, Mama et al make this the most skilled, entertaining and best value for waxing and nails in the Rittenhouse neighborhood. I have been going to Emma for my brows for 4 months now & won't let anyone else touch them (everyone else makes them too thin). She's the best, and it's only $8! Pros: excellent skill, character, atmosphere, ultra-cheap! Cons: , sanitary- just barely more
