Such a great experience with Katie at The Ten Spot! Friendly and efficient service, always happy with the quality waxing job done by Ten Spot employees! They were able to squeeze me in last minute for a same day appointment. Always worth the extra drive to make it to a Ten Spot location.

I've been going here for about a year now, and have had waxing services from Megan and Leah who have both done a fabulous job every time. The prices are a bit higher than other places, but it's well worth it for the level of service and care provided. I find the online booking system very convenient when I've forgotten to call within business hours.

I've just recently moved into the area, and was in DESPERATE need of a manicure. Kaite was AMAZING. She made my grubby fingers look so much better after a weekend of moving heavy boxes. The store is clean, and organized. I was warmly greeted by the receptionist and offered a beverage. The coffee was delicious! There is a ton of colour options, and got the colour I had envisioned walking into the store. Kaite really took her time, wasn't rushed, and the end result is perfect. I cannot wait to go back!

Love this place!!! I primarily get my upper lip waxed here and they do an amazing thorough job. I also have really sensitive skin, and none of their products have given me a reaction. All of the estheticians I’ve had have been so caring and do such a great job. I highly recommend going here.

I came in to fix a sad manicure that had chipped and come off quickly from a different salon, and Charis did an amazing job! She removed my chipped gel polish with care, gave a wonderful hand massage, and she was great suggesting colours for me after I changed my mind on my first choice. My nails are still killing it a week later! The salon was clean and quiet (which was very nice first thing in the morning). Ainsley was very kind while cashing us out, and helped accomodate my last minute change of service (from just a removal and re-polish into a full gel Mani minus shaping of nails). Thank you Ten Spot! I'll be back for sure 🙂

Love these ladies! They make you feel right at home, comfortable and their great personalities make the visit fun! Charlie did the waxing, she’s lots of fun and did an amazing job. Gabby did my pedicure, she is very sweet, kind and did a beautiful job. I will be back next month and every month after that. Thank you guys so much!

I love the ladies at the ten spot! Charlie is my #1 and only person I’d go to for waxing (seriously, the best wax I’ve gotten in 8 years of getting waxes) and Gabby does a fantastic manicure! I go here at least once a month and am never disappointed with the service 🙂

All of the staff is so nice and friendly as well as super professional. I went for the first time to try it out and really enjoyed it. They have TVs in the waxing rooms which is such a good distraction! I’ll definitely be coming back!

No exaggeration: Charlie is probably the city's best waxer! She really takes the stress out of what can be a stressful experience. Highly recommended!All the nail technicians are great, too. Friendly, professional and most importantly, 10 Spot is serious about hygiene and sanitizing.

I love being able to book online, and the staff are all very kind and knowledgeable. Katie was very thorough and was great to chat with. She also made sure I knew everything she was doing as she did it. The Ten Spot is the only place I go for my waxes!

I went here for my first ever pedicure. I was a little nervous and had no idea what to expect. I was greeted very warmly when I arrived and the next hour was amazing. I really can't say enough about my experience at the Ten Spot. I loved every moment and it was worth every penny for me. I felt so special at this place and it made my day big time. Leah did my pedicure and she did just such a wonderful job 🙂

I have been going to The Ten Spot on and off for a few years now for their waxing and am always pleased with the excellent customer service I receive while I am there! All the ladies I have met and been treated by, have been super friendly and accommodating and highly professional. I would definitely recommend this location for anyone who is curious about waxing but has never had it done before as they are very gentle and understanding towards the "virgins"!!

My initial appointment was fine experience wise, but unfortunately my gel polish had began chipping within three days so I called them and explained my situation. The staff were friendly and were able to book me in for another appointment within a couple of days to fix my manicure free of charge. I'm happy to say that my nails still look great almost two weeks later, with very minimal and expected level of wear. I wish I remembered the name of the person who had done my nails the second time around (they said she was a senior staff member) because I'd book her again in a heart beat! The photos are of the nails almost two weeks later

The place is cute and clean and you want to stay once you arrive and have every service they offer. If you want professional, quality service - then you don't have to think twice! Go to Ten Spot!

I was finally able to use my Christmas gift certificate for a facial (delayed due to Covid). It was wonderful. I wish I could remember the name of the technician who did this service for me (I am terrible at remembering names) because she did a fabulous job. I have had facials in the past from other providers, and I would say this one was as good if not better that the others I have had. I was impressed with how she asked me what my skin was like and if there was anything I did or didn't want done. I would definitely recommend this business for a facial. I haven't tried any of their other services, but would guess that they would be as good as the service I had.

Hey - huge shout out to Charlie, who was so lovely and welcoming at The Ten Spot! She did such a great job with my shellac mani - excellent colour recommendations and 10/10 quality on the finish! Thanks for a fun appointment and super high quality service. Highly recommend booking Charlie for your next gel mani!

I was fortunate enough to have a full leg wax and my first Brazilian today at Tenspot Hamilton with ERIN. I was a bit nervous. ERIN was pleasant, quick, professional and did not make me feel at all self-conscious. The process and after care were thoroughly explained. ERIN was capable, confident and very gentle and thorough in her work. Everything feels so smooth. The studio was very clean and cheerful. The other staff were very courteous and friendly. It was an excellent experience and I felt very pampered by it. I would definitely recommend Tenspot and ERIN to everyone 100%! I would definitely choose to go there again! Thank you ERIN for your wonderful service. Lily.

I went in to get a manicure today and had a wonderful experience. The staff are very friendly and made me feel welcome.I was offered a drink, and we started immediately, I didn't have to wait. Olivia did my manicure for me and it turned out great. I got sparkly purple polish which was so nice for spring. She was very quick and finished sooner than expected. A staff member (didn't catch her name) even helped me put on my coat as I was leaving, so I didn't smudge my polish. Overall a great experience and highly recommend.

This team is so wonderful and welcoming. I go to The Ten Spot for different treatments, but every time I am greeted with such a warm welcome. The staff are very pleasant and attentive. I could not recommend them more, I encourage all my friends to go here! They make you feel at ease and comfortable, which is so important when you are dealing with wax and sensitive body parts! 10/10 would recommend!

I went to THE TEN SPOT in Hamilton for the first time last week and had an absolutely incredible experience. The staff were very warm and welcoming. I was greeted with a smile and a complimentary beverage (chai tea, please and thank you!). I received a manicure from the esthetician, Tracey, who was friendly, an excellent conversationalist, and made me feel super comfortable in the new environment I was in. I could tell the employees of THE TEN SPOT loved their jobs and it made a difference in how they welcomed customers! I will definitely be returning to THE TEN SPOT in Hamilton and would recommend the same for anyone!

A really welcoming and friendly place. I had my first ever bikini wax here, a potentially intimidating experience. I needn't have worried, I was made to feel comfortable and (relatively) relaxed. I have since been back a bunch of times, and will continue to do so.

The Ten Spot Hamilton always makes us feel very welcome, relaxed and in great hands. They go the extra distance in terms of providing quality services and making us feel valued and comfortable. Whenever we have the chance to book pedicures or other stuff with The Ten Spot, I know we will have a great experience!

I had a manicure and pedicure yesterday and had such a lovely experience! Everyone there is so friendly and kind, in addition to always wanting to make sure that customers are looked after. I had Olivia for my appointment and she was amazing and looked after me very well. Lastly, this location is very, VERY clean, which is something I need to see when going to places like this. Overall, I will definitely be returning here for future treatments, and you should too!

The Ten Spot is the most amazing place I have ever been to to get a manicure. Upon entering the salon I was created right away. Once seated and waiting my turn I had a girl offer me something to drink. As I waited I had at least three more girls ask me if I wanted a drink and ask me how I was doing. The ladies there were so friendly. And not fake friendly either but genuine. Once it was my turn for my nails to be done they asked if I had an allergies and then throughout checked their product to make sure none of the ingredients in it were what I am allergic to. The girl who did my nails was amazing as well. I walked away so happy and feeling so lucky. My nails looked fabulous and I felt amazing after having been in such a positive atmosphere. The team at The Ten Spot are amazing and I can not wait to go back. If I could give more then 5 stars I would.

Had a “below the waist” wax from Leah and left feeling awesome! She was so professional, quick and I left feeling free of pain and so smooth. Haven’t had any post irritation or anything either. Really see the difference in the quality of waxing style as opposed to some other places I’ve been. Also bonus, she had Friends playing on a tv during my appointment. Brilliant way to pass the time.

I had the most lovely time here! All the workers are so kind and welcoming and I felt at home the moment I entered. My nails were done by Brittany and I absolutely loved her. She was so sweet and we had an amazing conversation while she did my nails beautifully. I would definitely recommend The Ten Spot to all my friends and I will be coming back very soon!

I felt warmly welcomed from the time I arrived to the time I left. Leah did a thorough job with my waxing. She tidied up my brows really nice and I have a smooth upper lip now as well as my chin and neck. It hardly hurt.Very punctual too.

Super easy to schedule my appointment online, had my waxing done with Leah who was really nice, super quick and very thorough. I had my armpits, upper legs and bikini - I would have had a full brazilly and legs had I known how quickly Leah works! Next time for sure. TV's in treatment room are a great distraction too.Definitely recommend the Ten Spot for waxing services.

I just moved to the area and was looking for a great place to get waxed. I have had unfortunately more bad experiences than good. I'm so happy that there is a ten spot in the area and couldn't be more happier to have Meagan work on me. She is kind and took the time to make me relax and walk me through her technique. She was very thorough and fast! I will be a regular there for sure.

GF visits here for some select spa treatments. Never heard any complaints apart from the price although this is definitely one of the better quality spas in Hamilton. The location is perfect if you live or work downtown. The website works great and has all the info you need if you want to book anything. Staff are friendly. Definitely recommend the TEN Spot if you're looking for the best spa/salon in Hamilton.

Loved the experience I had getting my nails done, all staff were friendly and amazing to talk with. They offered me a drink when I sat down, and the salon is very clean and professional looking.My gel nails did chip before a full week which was slightly disappointing for the price I paid but I will definitely return for a better experience.
