La Jolie Femme Salon & Spa

Best ladies around! Tanisha is the Queen B! For brazilian waxes!

Tinisha is amazing. She is so good at what she does and is so caring and sweet. I’ve always had a great experience here.

Had an amazing experience with Sascha and Tanisha yesterday who did an updo and makeup application for me. They are lovely, friendly and extremely skilled. Great work! Would highly recommend!

I tried La Jolie Femme for the first time today and I am impressed! My manicure is awesome! Tinisha is excellent — she has a lovely & friendly manner about her that makes you feel at ease. The location is in a very convenient nook near University & Wellington. I’ll be back :)

I had an event at a hotel down the street and booked style and makeup the girls listened to what I asked for and the results were excellent the price was exactly as advertised the salon was clean and the staff was friendly

Tinisha was so great! Been a while since my last wax and she made me feel so comfortable throughout the appointment. Super professional and friendly! Will absolutely be returning to check out the other services they offer.

This place is amazing, the woman who did my treatment was honestly amazing. I’m going to go here for everything. The time and attention and great conversation made the experience lovely.

I had a Buytopia voucher for a manicure and pedicure that I’ve been keeping for the longest time, and I finally got a chance to redeem it!
First off, the salon is a bit hard to find since it is located on the first floor of a round residential building. I had to walk around the whole building just to find the place.
I was greeted by a very sweet lady who was overly enthusiastic about everything that came out of my mouth, which I didn’t mind. Some may be put off by this false pleasantness.
The manicure and pedicure felt very rushed because it was close to their closing time, but the job was decent. I wasn’t charged extra for requesting a French manicure — other places I’ve been to usually charge $ 5 extra.
I am a bit concerned about the level of hygienic care of their manicure tools. They use the same nail file interchangeably and same scrubbing bar. Instead of soaking my hands in warm water, a cuticle softener oil was applied to speed up the process.
For a Buytopia deal, it wasn’t bad at all, however, if I were to pay full price I would go elsewhere with better quality work.

Great experience! Bought a Brazillian wax from groupon. The place is clean, elegant but a little small. The 2 girls working there are very friendly. The girl who did my Brazillian made me feel very comfortable and kept conversation to keep my mind off the awkwardness/​pain. Will defenitly be returning!

I’m not changing my rating given the quality of pedi, mani and threading that Tinisha provides. She’s gentle, got steady hands and is good at what she does. My bigger issue is with the owner, who is a little loud and stingy. She’s really weird about the girls here using too many towels and often doesn’t honour the discount program they have for regular customers. The girls working here are a lot nicer to deal with. It’s not the cheaper places around, but they know what they’re doing.

I recently decided to start getting Brazilian waxes again, and after reading a couple of positive reviews about La Jolie Femme here on Unilocal,I decided to buy a Groupon for three brazilians. My first appointment was with Tynesha, who was very sweet and friendly, making me feel relaxed and comfortable, and that definitely helped when the Brazilian started because it HURT. Tynesha was very reassuring, but after I went home, I had a rash for four days and realized that at least half the hair was broken off, not waxed out. However, I wanted to give them a second chance, so I went back this past week to see Elizabeth. She was terrific, very friendly and accommodating, and thorough. My appointment was almost painless (although I had taken two extra-​strength Advil beforehand as well!) Both girls were lovely people and great to chat with, which was a welcome distraction. I am going back.

I bought a deal from Buytopia for their Manicure and Pedicure.
First, when I got there, they were running out of hot water for pedicure. I had to wait for 15 minutes. In addition to the long wait, they don’t seem to sanitize their tools.
Second, they did not soak my fingers in the nail cleanser before applying the nail polish.
Third, they don’t have proper fans/​lighting to dry hands or feet.
Through out the process, the girls kept gossiping to each other about their other colleagues or clients very loudly. (Come on, this is a spa! I am not paying to listen to your complaints about your life!)
Lastly, despite all the bad things happened, they imposed a mandatory tip and HST of $ 17, on top of $ 19 I already paid to Buytopia.
I ended up paying $ 36 for an awful experience.

I always have a hard time trying new places for waxing and other spa services. Tinisha at La Jolie Femme took care of me and did an excellent job and I have been going back since. She is very good at her job and is very nice. I recommend this spa!
