Shelly is The Brazilian wax gueen of Pittsburgh
by fijifu
I just started school in Pittsburgh, so I needed a new place for my Brazilian waxes. I found Shelly on line and thought I would give her a try. Well her reviews were all correct. She really is so professional and fast, I was amazed.
Thanks again Shelly for the best Brazilian wax I ever had.
- Pros: Very fast and doesn"t miss a hair
- Cons: parking
loved it the first time with kim
by NicoleA20
I have went to Kim a few times for highlights ...she does a really good job and takes her time but the past couple times I went she didn't really listen to what I wanted. She also left the bleach in a really long time without checking them...There were very very white then!
Shelly's Brazilian waxes are by far the best
by kereast
I heard about Shelly's Brazilian wax techniques so I drove 2 hrs to see her. I had waxes before that were not great.
Shelly met all my expectations. She was so fast and missed nothing. Before Shelly waxed me, I had to go home and clean up what others left behind. Shelly knows her stuff. Very professional as well.
Thanks girl,
Tiff
- Pros: Fast and Proffessional
- Cons: non
Best Massage Therapist in Town!
by riverrider18
Never have I had the results that I have from Eileen. She is an amazing Massage Therapist and I would tell everyone and anyone that it is a mistake to not experience one of her massages! I am a football, soccer and sometimes baseball player and she has saved my sporting career! She has done wonders with my injuries in just an hours time! I have had massages from numerous therapists in the area. Until now it was always a search for someone who could actually do something for my aches and pains. No longer am I searching! I wouldn't waste my time or money going anywhere else. The whole experience is always great. Her personality rocks! The atmosphere is calming and relaxed in the new spa. If you are looking for MAGIC - she is the one!
Kim
by CSMobileUser
I had orange hair due to dying my hair out of a box and kim performed miracles. Not 100 percent but it is close and am excited to see my hair after one more time. Very skilled!
Anita is AMAZING
by zstarbrite
Anita has been doing my hair for over a year now. She is the absolute best! She has an amazing personality and is so much fun to talk with that I really look forward to every appointment! She worked with me to find the perfect red (and for anyone who goes red you all know this is truly difficult) and has made sure to keep my formula written down so it will be perfect every time. She colored my hair right before my engagement pictures and when I felt it was still a tich too bright, she came in early to put a rinse on me so that it would be perfect for the pictures. In July she did my hair and my bridal party’s hair for my wedding. It was a COMPLETELY stress FREE experience. My hair was gorgeous and I have gotten a million times more compliments on my hair than anything else I had on that day! Seriously I think most people liked my hair more than my dress! She really listens to what you are looking for and the hair styles my bridesmaids had chosen REALLY fit all of their personalities and were all so different and unique. She is truly an artist! I would recommend her to anyone and everyone! I also went to her to donate my hair after my wedding and she did an amazing job! I donated 11 inches and my post-donation cut is SUPER cute!! LOVE LOVE LOVE HER!!!
I also went to Lydia for my pre-wedding waxing and she is awesome. That woman is a stray hair's arch enemy! My eyebrows and my mom's eyebrows both looked gorgeous and the bikini wax was SO FAST! Absolutely awesome!
- Pros: Wonderful updo, fantastic color, amazing cuts
- Cons: none!
Great experience for Massage
by Lady4Real
It was my first professional massage and the masseuse made me feel so comfortable and relaxed. I was nervous at the beginning but by the end of it I wanted to come back and do it some more. You will find places with cheaper prices but I think Capristo is worth the extra money. I'll definitely be back, and I'm telling everyone I know.
- Pros: Easy to Find, great massage and service, amazing
- Cons: No parking
loved Dana
by vmfs125
I went to Capristos for a cut and went to Dana based on the reviews I read here. She did not disappoint. She did a fabulous job on my hair- I've gotten tons of compliments on it since I got it done. Very rarely do I ever leave a salon looking presentable. I have thick wavy hair that takes a long time to dry and straighten and stylists usually don't take the time to make it look right. Dana took the time needed to do an excellent job. Also, while I was there another stylist asked her for advice on a color and I take that as a good sign that she knows what she's doing and is respected by her coworkers. I'm so pleased and will definitely be going back to her.
Best waxing by Lydia
by lbell320
Lydia does a Brazilian wax that is is very quick, virtually painless, and clean in a matter of 15 minutes. She is a seasoned professional and I hope she never leaves the salon. The rest of the staff is super friendly and helpful. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this salon to anyone.
- Pros: Friendly, full service salon
Best Salon in town
by Sylph22
I've been going to Capristo for about a year now, and I love it. Especially my hairstylist Dana she is the best! I have very curly hair and have always had a hard time finding a stylist that I like, until I met Dana!
- Pros: Awesome haircuts, color, etc
