I never really understood why a person should pay more than $40 for a haircut. I would never go to Supercuts, but I never wanted to splurge on a haircut because I figured that a $35 at one salon would be about...

This last weekend I went to Capristo Salon in Pittsburgh for my first Brazilian wax. I must say that Shelly is not only consummate professional she is a genuinely warm and inviting person. As a man my fear was that I would embarrass myself and Shelly! Shelly helped me overcome my fear and talked me through the entire process. She said we could stop at any time I felt uncomfortable and never once did I feel rushed. At no point was I uncomfortable in the least. There was some pain, but nothing like I had expected. I fully intend to visit Shelly in the future and have no hesitations in recommending her to anyone. Thanks for a wonderful experience!
