Esthetique is one of Hamden's best kept secrets. A very busy small salon, they offer a variety of feel good/look good items.
If you're looking for your nails or toes to get done, this is the place. They also offer waxing services.
If you want a massage, they have it here too! This is really the place to go and relax! Prices are comparable with other services of this type.
They also sell essential oils -- the same oils that masseuses use when they are doing massages. My personal favorite is lavender.
They have a terrific line of products that they sell and they are extremely popular. The staff has been there for years and strive to make your visit very pleasant. The place is not very big, but has a nice feel to it.
Complimentary coffee is also served.

I have been a client at Esthetique for seven years and have never been disappointed with a visit. The staff is talented, professional and courteous; they go out of their way to make the clients feel at home. Facials, massages, manicures, pedicures, waxing, sunless tanning--Esthetique does it all and does it well! There is no reason to go anywhere else. If you are in the area, don't miss the opportunity to try Esthetique!
Pros: clean, calm atmosphere, parking, staff skills/talent
Cons: none!

They have some very unqiue items and clothes! The stores smells wonderful from candles. prices are a bit high, but the items are so nice you don't mind paying a little bit more. I have found some great cultural items from all over the world, many items have little index cards near them so you know what they are and how to use them. The best part is most of it is one of a kind, things you never see elsewhere. Great!

I lvoe this store! Not only do they take your childrens clothes and toys they give you cash on the spot! I buy my sons great clothes there and love there sales. After seasons they have terrific clearance sales which I stock up for next years season. They make it easy to afford clothes and toys your kids want without breaking the bank. I've always been treated nicely and they talk with the kids. They even have a kids play area while you shop, its all boxed in so they cant get out and you can shop stress free!

I enjoy going to Exile and sorting through the 8 dollar used CDs or bringing some of my old CDs to try to get 4 dollars of credit for each (which is the best deal I've found for used CDs at any record store). I don't usually buy new CDs if I don't have credit because the prices seem high, but that's mostly because 1. I'm really cheap and 2. CDs are expensive in general, and not because this store is particularly expensive. However, I know that they have a good selection for people looking for indie/emo/punk/hardcore stuff, a lot of which is in its own section for convenience. In conclusion, I highly recommend supporting this independent record store.

Thyme and Season is a pretty nice store. They have your average health food store selection of boxed, canned and frozen organic, natural and vegetarian/vegan products. They actually don't have a very big fresh produce section, though. They have two soups and a few hot dishes every day, and they are pretty inexpensive (especially the by-the-pound hot food, at least when I got it), but the food is not always good and not always replenished when it dries up or runs out. If you shop there on weekends, you will get to try a lot of free samples! I have discovered some yummy new products like Glad Corn and vegan lemon ginger sandwich cookies this way.

I went to Liquor Land looking for a specific brand of pinot grigio. While the selection was excellent, what I wanted was not in stock. I spoke to the owner about what I was looking for and he took down my name and number. A couple of weeks later, I received two bottles of my favorite wine - and at a very competitive price. Though the turnaround time seemed somewhat slow, I was very impressed with the ease at which my order was completed. Service and selection are two of Liquor Land's strong points.

This place has been around forever! Everyone there is just so friendly and helpful. They go the extra mile to make sure you get what you are looking for - even when you're not sure what you want. Not to mention it's easy to get to. Right next to the Skiff Street/Whitney Avenue intersection - it puts you right near everything!
Pros: friendly staff, wide variety of flowers and plants
Cons: parking (not nearly enough)
