capristo – I never thought guys had the option to get rid of their pubic hair until I met Shelly at Capristo. I'm a straight guy who always had to shave, not anymore. Shelly made me feel extremely comfortable and the pain was quite tolerable. Best of all my lady loved the results and we are both reaping the benefits of a smooth brazilian wax job. Thank you to Shelly and Capristo I will be back.

GREAT WAXING, AND NAILS – SHELLY SMITH HAS BEEN DOING MY WAXING AND NAILS FOR A FEW YEARS NOW. I HAVE NEVER HAD SOMEONE AS PROFESSIONAL AS HER. SHE PAYS ATTENTION TO DETAILS AND IS ALWAYS CONCERNED ABOUT MAKING HER CUSTOMERS HAPPY. SHE HAS A GREAT PERSONALITY AND I LOOK FORWARD TO MY VISITS WITH HER. THE WAXINGS ARE ALWAYS QUICK AND NEVER HURT. SHELLY IS ALSO VERY TALENTED WITH NAIL SERVICES. SHE HAS PAINTED PICTURES BY HAND ON MY NAILS, AND THE POLISH NEVER CHIPS. I WOULD RECCOMEND SHELLY TO ANYONE.

Waxing and Facials – I have been getting my legs waxed, and brazilian for a while now, and have never been happier when I switched to Capristo's. Compared to the place I used to go to, I would HIGHLY recommend Shelly for any type of waxing. She is so friendly, professional, quick, and makes me feel so comfortable. She greets you with a smile, explains everything clearly, and tells you what you need to do to maintain a good waxing. As far as facials, I also recieve one from her once a month. I have never felt so relaxed in a ... read more

nails and waxing – I am a poor (laughs!) grad student at a nearby university. I heard through word of mouth that Capristos salon offered a variety of salon & spa services. I had an upcoming event to attend to and decided to try them out. I scheduled my frist time braz. wax (thats all hair) and underarm wax. Upon arriving at the salon, i was greeted by a very friendly front desk staff. I was then introduced to the woman that would be working with me. Her name is Shelly Smith. She explained in deatail what was going to done, a... read more

brazilian and leg wax! – I just spent an hour with Shelly getting a brazilian and leg wax for the first time. She was amazing! She made me feel very comfortable, and did a wonderful job. The atmosphere is very comfortable... with a nice private warm, clean room and relaxing music. I highly recommend this salon.

The best Brazilian wax – I would like to recomend Shelly at Capristo to anyone who would like a brazilian or any waxing service, for that matter. She was very qualified and made me feel very comfortable. The room was kept very sanatiary. Thank you Shelly for a great experience.

the hand-off – first visit. found reception area unorganized and distracting. who likes waiting where there are manicures being done? the reception area itself was an afterthought. no good, current reading material normally found in a salon (i.e. fashion/ hair mags). once my stylist was ready, she handed me off to her assistant for a sub-par shampoo in another cramped, noisy area. the stylist spent about 8 minutes, giving me a crooked haircut. I have blunt, long hair with blunt bangs; she left the right side about 1/2 inch l... read more

Rude Receptionist – I come in from out of town at least 6 times a year, and take my mother in for hair and nails because all of her friends go there. I've had several manicures and pedicures which were fine quality, but it's very noisy where I receive the manicure. The receptionist were often times very rude. My mother is hard of hearing, and they get very upset with her when she asks them to repeat themselves. Not very well trained in the patients department.
