The first time I went to Dehams, my experience was ok. I went for a brow and lip wax. My brows weren't shaped as good as they could have been and I still had some hairs on my upper lip, but for the price and convenience of being able to run over at lunch time for a service, it was fine. The next time I went, I noticed a dog running around the salon. Although I thought this a little strange (and somewhat unsanitary), I ignored it, again for the convenience of the salon. The next time I went, I didn't see the dog so I was relieved until we walked back to the waxing room only to find the dog laying on the waxing bed...the same spot where I was supposed to lay. Now that's just gross...she simply shooed the dog away and I had to lay right where the dog was. I'm not a clean-freak by any means...but I also don't want to lay in a dog bed in good work clothes. The LAST time I went, I walked in and the dog jumped right up on me. Then as I'm laying in the waxing bed, the dog again jumped up on me. The person doing my brows just giggled, pick the dog up off of of me, petted it and then went right back to TOUCHING MY FACE. I'm sorry...dog lover or not...that's just unsanitary! She's touching this dog - that has been who-knows-where, then without washing her hands or anything, she goes right back to touching my face. No convenience is worth that! I'm sure Aveda would not approve! I am back to my original salon for my waxes - it's a little out of the way for me, but my brows have never looked better. And guess what...my lip is actually hair-free after a lip wax. The BEST salon is Maxmanii in Robinson - ask for Anita! Not dogs and hair-free!!!
Pros: reasonable prices, downtown location
Cons: DOGS in salon - dirty, dirty, dirty!!
