Uni K WAX-Pinecrest

This location is horrible. I’ve been here a couple of times and every time I come in it’s an issue. I don’t mind waiting, but the first time I waited almost thirty minutes when there was only one young girl waiting with me. Her mom came in and mentioned she’d been waiting 40 minutes and shed even made an appointment. Today for New Year’s Eve I went to get my nails done at the salon next door, and after walking by to check the closing times to wax,(which were posted like normal,) came in after my nail appointment. They told me they’d closed and that they couldn’t fit me in. She asked the girl in the back, and assuming I couldn’t understand Spanish, she said she just didn’t want to. The girl said she couldn’t DO a lip and eyebrow wax. I’d even offered to pay more. They closed 2 hours earlier and she said times were emailed and posted online– but not on the door??? Okay. Both girls were rude– one of which was there last time and who I remember as being rude before as well. I’m never coming back to this location. There is always an issue and they’re not even nice about it. If they wanted to leave so bad they shouldn’t work there, especially when I offered to pay extra.

I have no complaints! This uni k is very clean and nice. I never have a problem making an appointment whether it’s with time or last minute they attend me. Katherine has been the person I’ve gone to for some time now. She’s amazing! She does a great job, very professional, and fast. I fully recommend her!

I’ve had good experiences but I’m not giving 5 stars because when I did my eyebrows there, the waxer made them so thin, I could’ve outlined them with a sharpie. I’ve had underarms and legs done — the wax is pretty cool, there’s no paper needed. The services are a bit overpriced — it is Pinecrest. All in all, I’ll be coming here again!

Katherine is the very Best! I have had her since I moved back to Miami from Europe. She knows her field well… & is full of Class! Thank you, Besos K. ;)

There is only one woman on this planet that I trust with waxing my eyebrows and her name is Katherine. I will wait weeks and even months without touching my eyebrows since I live out of town before going to anyone else. Katherine is the wax queen and especially talented at shaping eyebrows. I have brought in many of my friends and they all agree that she is the best at what she does. I highly recommend visiting Katherine for all of your waxing needs. She is quick, accommodating, and makes each visit enjoyable with her bubbly personality :)

This is my favorite Unik of all time. Waxing, for me, is a horrible experience no matter what, so whether I like a place is all about how nice the people are. This is the only Unik I’ve been to where everyone, including the receptionist, is nice.
Appointments are always available at this location, even during the holidays, and I have never had to wait more than 10 minutes. I usually don’t wait at all and they take me early.
Unik waxers are always very very thorough. And the best thing about Unik is how FAST they are. This location is no exception. I always go out of my way to come to the Pinecrest location when I’m home in Miami. It’s so worth it.

Cecelia Just gave me a back wax and was AMAZING. Usually when I get a back wax I expect torture, but today it was as painless as possible and quick. They now have a new customer for life.

I found a gem in Katherine! She is so professional and kind! I look forward to seeing her for my appointments. It’s easy to make appointments online and the staff is always courteous. This location is always clean and I’ve never had to wait for my appointment time. Absolutely recommend this location to anyone near Pinecrest! Please be sure to ask for Katherine!

Through Unilocal,I was able to find this Uni K. Wax location and the perfect technician when I was in the area and in serious need of an eyebrow shape. Katherine did an amazing job and I would definitely drive out of my way to visit this location to see her.

Katherine is by far the BEST. She is quick, does a great job and is very friendly! Overall, clean place and you’re in and out! Love it.

Katherine will be the only person to touch my eyebrows until the day I leave this city. She does an amazing job, and is always quick. You’re in and out in 10 min. Book online to earn points, which could take a dollar or two off the service. It’s a bit expensive ($ 17) but worth it.

Katherine is by far the best! So sweet and quick service! She gives great tips on taking care of your skin too: D

I am not new to brazilian waxing but i am new to Uni K Wax. I stepped into the store while shopping a L’Atelier and was very impressed with the cleanliness and Zen atmosphere. Today was my first experience. I was reminded of my appt early in the morning by the receptionist Sophia. Came a bit early to my 10am appt, filled out a form, and waited about 5 minutes to get acquainted with Cecilia, my new and favorite waxing lady :))))
She was very fast and honestly made it almost painless. Like I said it was not my first time doing a Brazilian so I knew what to expect. The procedure is never painless, but the more you do it, the less pain you feel. Cecilia was very professional and very quick. Will definitely return and ask for her again.

At first, I was a little skeptical about having a Brazilian wax done, but it was so easy and painfree with Katherine. She did a fantastic job. I didn’t feel any pain with her and I was completely hair free. Katherine, is truly a professional. I would recommend her even to my own mother. The facility has great parking and the staff was very awesome.

This is the best waxing salon I have ever been to! I always see Katherine and she is excellent! I would not change a thing. Katherine is very professional at what she does and the service is def. 5 star! I plan to stay with them for a long, long time!

I’ve been here a few times and have been pretty frustrated after I’ve left each time. Some of the girls are really nice but the last 2 times I’ve been there the person acted like I was seriously bothering them. I can get over a bad attitude, but they just did a bad job! The last time I was there, the girl left patches of hair and my eyebrows didn’t match. Unfortunately, I didn’t realize this until after I left and they were closed.
They’re pretty cheap, so if you’re in a rush and need your eyebrows done then go for it but I definitely wouldn’t recommend letting any of them wax below the belt!

Love love love this Unikwax location. Can’t believe anyone would give it less than 5 stars! I can always get last minute Appointments during my lunch hour. The receptionist is so friendly. Cecilia is usually who I go with. She knows her stuff and always gives me awesome tips. :-)

This was the first place I ever got a full Brazilian wax at, at first everything was fine and the girls were all good (then again I was new to the whole waxing thing and was completely unaware of «clean» techniques and etc)
A few months in about 6 I started developing what I believed were ingrown hairs (the girls all just advised me
To buy their products and exfoliate) meanwhile they continued to wax me (double dipping the stick if I may add) even though my skin was clearly infected
Like I said I was younger and stupid and just took their word for it (meanwhile I was super embarrassed and my skin was getting very infected, I tried everything I could to fix it) it got to the point where I couldn’t take it anymore, and finally went to the dr (something I should have done months prior) I was diagnosed with a staph infection and had to be but on oral and topical meds (2 cycles to be exact) it was horrible /​embarrassing /​traumatizing
I talked to the manager about the issue I had & about how his employees do not practice clean techniques (double dipping etc) and although he was very nice his excuse for the double dipping was that the hot wax kills bacteria… FALSE ! It takes a temp above 100 degrees to kill bacteria (wax at that temperature would severely burn the skin) needless to say I have not been back to Unik or anywhere because I’m scared
My advice is to make sure your technician doesn’t double dip the stick & that they was their hands/​wear
Gloves and disinfect your skin before you allow them to rip the hair
From the follicle and put you at risk

I was hesitant to get a full brazilian wax from someone who I hadn’t known for any more than 2 minutes but they really make the experience comfortable (or as comfortable as you could possibly be!) I don’t necessarily get the same person every time I go (I’m sure you can ask for an appt with the same person, I just don’t care enough) but everyone I’ve dealt with is always professional and the place is VERY clean. The brazilian bikini wax is painful but it gets better as you go– they also use wax with no strips which I like because I feel like the strips make it MORE painful.
I have to give them credit for doing this! I could never wax someone else’s *woohoo* and they do it all day and act like it’s an eyebrow wax!

Oh Man, Yes!!! It is one thing to get the eyes done, it’s another to trust your most sensitive parts to a complete stranger. What a great experience for something that is SOOOOO PAINFUL. Professional yet friendly!!! I was reluctant to spent extra $$$ for something I perceived as a gimmick. Went one day with a girl friend because she had an appointment. What the heck, might as well get cleaned up too. The experience was fine, but nothing to write home about. Very clean facility, warm and responsive receptionist and a fine job done. What changed? I decided not to be a hippy girl and give the BF a surprise. What we do for love. (UGH!) The Full Bikini is NOTHING like getting the eyebrows cleaned up. This is serious stuff! With copious amounts of positive feed back, I survived and was delighted. Great Job!
