Nicole Alexis

Let’s Seee… I’ve been with Nicole for about a little over a year now and she’s changed my life. Her services have actually enhanced my beauty as well as my confidence as a woman. Anyone who is into the latest and greatest trends of health & beauty knows that brows are a major factor. I was randomly looking one day for something different than the usual brow wax and I found Nicole through social media. Upon arriving to her facility, I was greeted and they showed me her suite. It is such a cute and welcoming space. She is very clean and her supplies are readily available. I clearly love her work (brow shaping and tinting) because I try and get in AT LEAST every two weeks. I would try and do every week but shes booked because she is truly talented. She’s also done my makeup for weddings and everyone loved my look and her work! I would definitely recommend Nicole Alexis, she is As Good As it Gets :)

Nicole was in time and courteous. Her space is clean and well organized, which immediately relaxed me. She asked pertinent questions, but wasnt judgmental. It was like having a nice chat with your girlfriend. I was advised about my eyebrows and how to treat them in between appointments. Not only did I learn a lot but my brows have never looked better. I will definitely be going back!

Great experience from start to finish. She is professional, moderately priced and very patient. I was really impressed that started right on time and ended right on time (a rarity for these types of appointments) The only thing is that its hard to get an appointment. Good for her bad for you and me.
I would definitely recommend her for eyebrows.

First, let me say I didn’t just get my eyebrows done, I had an experience! As I walked in, the room was clean and smelled so good. The vibe was calm and zen. Nicole was knowledgeable and professional from beginning to end. The waxing was painless and had me wondering what the hell they were doing to me at the nail salons?!
I got a wax and tint. My brows were growing out but I still had sparse areas. Once Nicole was done I was really shocked at how awesome (and natural) they looked! I normally take about 15 mins in the morning to fill in, conceal, blah blah blah… Now, I can go without doing all that.
Then, after my wax & tint, she gave me this amazing brow massage! (insert ugly face emoji here). When she was done I literally thought to myself «Can I come back tomorrow?» Lol. It was really relaxing.
Needless to say, I will be back and I’m telling all my friends to go too. And ladies, the nail salon is for nails, not brows.

Lets be clear, every woman has had an horrible brow-​waxing experience. You walk into some shady NAIL salon and they ask you what you want, you say eyebrows, *gulp* and then it feels like you are walking to the gallows. After burns, pain, and too much tweezing, you end up with thin, non-​shaped brows. You pay, go home, and cry about it and vow to grow your eyebrows back, and never return again.
These experiences are what let me to seek Nicole’s services. Nicole is situated in a beautiful salon suite near the newly renovated (gentrified) Rhode Island Row. By beautiful salon suite, I mean CLEAN… I mean INTIMATE. It is literally just you and her which is awesome because then you can spill all the tea you want to her while she slays your brows.
My first visit was for my birthday in September, Nicole made me fill out an informational questionnaire, asking me questions about my brows, which made me super happy. Nicole listened attentively to what I wanted to achieve with my brows and she also was very honest.
By honest, I mean, she explained what she could do, what would look good, and what should not be done. Nicole will not perform a service that will diminish the integrity of her business and that will harm you and end up jacked in long run.
All in all, Nicole is amazing. Everyone knows this thats why her online scheduling is always full and booked up — so book in advance ladies.
*Nicole’s price point is moderate compared to nail salons and what she provides (waxing, tweezing, cool press, tint). Don’t be cheap with your body. It will not thank you when you are 65.

It took a while for me to get an appointment with Nicole, but I was definitely happy when I did. I have suppppper thin brows, like non existent, and had previously been burned at my last eyebrow space. Nicole did an excellent job asking questions about my skin care routine, in addition to giving suggestions on how to fill my brows and tend to the burn.
She did a great job waxing, and I was nervous about getting my eyebrows tinted, but I figured go big or go home. I was extremely pleased at the natural appearance of the tint. I don’t wear a lot of makeup so I didn’t want to try tint that would be overwhelming. It looked great! I’m looking forward to going back to Nicole in December.

Newly transplant from California, I was really hesitant in going to just anyone. I love my brows and am really anal about keeping them full and shaped. After looking through Nicole’s previous reviews I decided to give it a shot. The online scheduling system was easy and efficient and she is right off the metro station which is really convenient. Nicole really listened to want I wanted. The waxing was painless and she really took her time. I also got the Under Eye Collagen Mask (after not enough sleep the night before) and I noticed the difference. She made my brows look even fuller and applied the tint (which is included for first time clients). Bit pricey, but you get what you pay for. My brows looked perfect after. Def will be going back! Thanks Nicole!

Nicole is awesome! She’s friendly, professional and a brow snatcher! My brows never looked better. I live in Gaithersburg MD but will definitely take an extra 30 mins just to make sure my brows are to perfection.

So i got a virgin brazilian and vajacial earlier this morning. So upon arriving I was very nervous but i walked through and she was very down to earth. She was informative throughout every process that she did and was also very detailed when i meant i wanted it as bare as can be. She kept checking up o me making sure the wax wasnt to hot, if when she pressed the after sting wasnt too harsh, just every detail was covered when it came to Nicole. Because of her I lvoed the experience so i have legit already booked my monthly appointments until January. Next time ill add on more services. She can NOT be mimicked! This woman is amazing.

Listen! If you need your eyebrows waxed… Nicole is the person to go to! Not only does she do a great job on my eyebrows, but a superb job when I get my Brazilian wax as well. I am *very* dramatic when it comes to pain and she deals with me so professionally. I have seen two other people for waxing prior to Nicole and when I say the pain is significantly less, I mean it. As long as she is in business, she has a customer out of me.

I have known Nicole for years and finally saw her for my eyebrows. I went on my lunch break and was in and out promptly. We discussed the vision for my eyebrows and she shaped them perfectly. She is very professional! This location is convenient to the Metro Station. I have already scheduled my next appointment.

Nicole is professional and very skilled with all of her services. Your brows are very important to her and she treats them like her own. Everyone raves about her brows, but be sure to schedule a waxing appointment or skin services for the face, etc.

Nicole is great! She’s very knowledgable in what she’s doing and is very personable. Prices are a tad bit expensive but sometimes it’s quality over quantity. I trust her equipment and expertise. And I love that she doesn’t overbook and respects other people’s time and her own schedule. I’ve been a client for several months and will continue.

I volunteered to be a brow model for Nicole a few weeks ago. I was eager to meet her and for her to bless my brows. From the beginning to end she was very sweet and professional. The energy of her studio was peaceful and calming. As soothing music played in the background she worked her magic on my brows. They looked and still look amazing. It was the most relaxing waxing experience I’ve ever had. I will be going back to her for another session and taking my mother with me. She has definitely gained two new clients!

I should just stick to what/​who I know. Unfortunately, I had to find out how great Nicole after visiting another salon. She made my first Brazilian about 90% painless (the other 10% was me probably being dramatic, as usual). I appreciated how sweet, calm and patient and gentle she was. Primp Studio is truly the best place in town to get your wing done. I’ve also gotten my eyebrows waxed here and they were, as the kids say, on FLEEK! Lol look no further, Nicole is where you need to be.

Let me just start off by saying I live in Atlanta but I was in DC for a family event and had previously heard about Nicole Alexis and her superb eyebrow services. I knew of my trip a month before so I let my eyebrows grow out so she could fix them; they were over arched and just a hot mess. I saw her work via her Instagram page @nicolealexis and was very excited to make an appointment once I got to DC and knew my schedule for the week of events. I called to make an appointment but she was booked up so I told her I came from ATL and heard about her and really wanted to get my brows done by her. By the grace of God she fit me into her schedule and I was BLESSED by her expert hands. I got my brows waxed and tinted and they were amazing! It’s been almost a month, the tint wore off after about 2 weeks, but my eyebrows still look great. They are full & pretty. Although she referred me to someone in ATL, I have a trip to DC in August for a wedding so I will be making an appointment with her. Am I pressed or nah? LOL! She is sooo worth the wait

So sweet, calm. And professional. Love that the facilities are in a space for black business women to congregate (all are welcomed). It was nice to see. I hadn’t done a wax for fear of going to a bad place and this is the best. Going back next month for maintenance and brow consultation. Thanks Nicole!

FINALLY found an artist who I can trust with my brows. Hands down one of the best brow artist in the DC area! She goes above and beyond for her clients.

I have had many bad experiences with my brows, most recently the person I was going to just up and disappeared with no forwarding information. I found Nicole Alexis through another follower sending her page link on Instagram. I made my appointment and went in for my first session today! I am a now a client for life!!! Nicole was super professional. Her space was clean and organized which I am a huge fan of.
She is awesome and I would recommend her to anyone!

Living in D.C. for the last three years has been wonderful. I’ve nestled in as a transplanted Washingtonian very well. I have a favorite restaurant (Room 11), a favorite tailor (Ginger Root) and my favorite coffee shop (The Coupe), but in all my nestling I was having the hardest time finding a good aesthetician for my eyebrows.
This was until I discovered Nicole Alexis’s Primp Beauty Studio. Nicole did a superior job on my brows that needed some extra lovin’ after several botched jobs from inexperienced «brow ladies.»
Her approach was gentle and clean. She was extremely knowledgable, which was refreshing and comforting. You could tell Nicole genuinely cares about the work she does and her clientele. After Nicole did her thing my eye brows looked amazing! They have never looked better!
I highly recommend her services. If you’re going for some brow work, it is best to let your eye brows to grow all the way in so she has a full palette (if you will) to work from.
