I came home from a vacation to find my driver’s side window smashed in. After a bit of calling, I found All Star Glass’ contact information. They gave me a reasonable price estimate over the phone and even offered to come to my home to fix the glass, free of charge. However I ended up driving to their shop where the work was done quickly and efficiently. Needless to say, they did a great job and I haven’t had a problem with the window since!

I went to ASAP Auto on the recommendation of a friend when I needed to have the hoses and belts in my car changed and tightened. On the whole they did a great job, it only took a couple of hours and they had me in and out very quickly. They also itemized everything I paid for from top to bottom and explained each item so I knew what I was paying for. I’m definitely going back next time I need help with my car!

Good Value, a Little Slow

I went to Autopia after hearing rave reviews from my boss and a friend. I had heard about a special which offers a carwash and oil change at a discounted rate, the problem is, you need a coupon in order to get the discount. So definitely keep your eye out for their Pennysaver ads before you go. They offer carwash and general car maintenance services and on the whole they are pretty good, although on the day I went they were pretty busy and therefore a bit slow.

I really like the intimate feel of this venue. It’s nice and small, and you’re right up there next to the stage. The only thing is that parking is difficult to find because you either have the nearly-impossible-to-find street parking or the way-too-expensive pay to park parking lots. Other than that, it’s a good place to spend a night out.

To Get that Perfect Arch

I always go to Excellent Hair and Nails to get my eyebrows done. Kelly, the girl who does the eyebrows, typically does a great job. She uses threading, which gets the job done quickly and precisely. There have been a couple of times where she’s overplucked, and one of my friends complained that the plucking gave her the ‘constantly surprised’ look. One warning is that the wait for a walk-in can take forever – either book an appointment well in advance or go at a time when it’s quiet, like midday.

Cheap.. But!

Shing’s is one of the typical $15 for a haircut places that you find around Asian mini malls. Although I know a lot of people who go there regularly and I’ve heard that they do good cuts for guys (my brother is among one of the regulars), the times that I’ve gone I’ve had really negative haircutting experiences. Last time I cut my hair there, I was pretty traumatized, and didn’t cut my hair for another two years afterward. But some people like it, so maybe it’s just my personal experience.

I’ve gone to Top Line Nails twice. Overall, it’s a good store and the girls are nice and do a good job. The two times that I’ve gotten pedicures there, I was very satisfied. Although just as a warning, one of my friends who accompanied me got infected after getting a pedicure. So even though my experience was positive, I don’t think she’ll be going back.

After a previous traumatizing hair cutting experience, I went to Focus Beauty Center. The stylist pretty much gave me what I wanted and spent a good amount of time working on my hair. Overall, for $20 it was a good value and I think they did a really good job! I was very pleased, and I’ll probably go back next time I’m due for a cut.

I went to this salon back when they had began construction of the retail-cinema project across the street. The owner of the salon was sweet lady. All in all, I was very satisfied with the style and cut she gave me and the prices were extremely affordable, to boot.
