After the rave reviews on here, I took my daughter to get a facial with Denyse. Unfortunately, we…read moredidn't have the experience that the others had. We found her to be very nice but overpriced, over talkative, and not professional. Our appointment was at 1:30pm and she arrived at 1:35 with her lunch in hand. We had to wait outside until she unlocked the door. Her desk was a mess and she had trouble finding the intake form. We had to wait longer while she set up. It might just be my standards, but I think it shows professionalism and seriousness when the workspace is clean, clear and ready for business when your client arrives, especially to make a good first impression. Then, during the facial, while the mask was setting, she made a personal phone call where we could overhear her discussion. The extractions were quite painful and my daughter winced and moved her feet quite a bit to get through it. The appointment itself was close to 2 hours long. Once again, Denyse was friendly and I like her integrative approach but overall we do not recommend nor will be returning.

Dynese's work is simply magic. As a young girl growing into my adulthood, I've struggled with…read morehormonal acne off and on for years. Before finding Dynese, I had lost all hope and confidence because of my stubborn acne. Not only do I see results immediately after going in for a facial, but Dynese's products that I use at home have consistently proven to be effective. If you struggle with acne, you know how vulnerable it can feel. What sets Dynese apart from others is this: she never pushes you to spend unnecessary money on products or treatments. She also kindly offers advice on other potential factors (diet, hygiene, stress levels, etc.) that could be effecting your skin to get to the root cause of your unique acne, instead of only offering temporary solutions. She is extremely personable, GENUINE, kind, and incredibly dedicated to her practice and clients. In my experience-- nothing, and I mean not a single product on the market, can out perform Dynese's. She's truly the best and I could not recommend her more. :)

With the Bay Area limited on estheticians who do sugaring, I decided to book with Sugaring NYC…read more Booking is fairly easy on their site. They send reminder text messages and emails leading up to your appointment. It is a very cute (all pink) and clean atmosphere and the staff are very professional and friendly. I booked a Brazilian sugaring appointment with Annalyse and boy was she amazing! She really got to know me personally while sugaring to keep me calm and not thinking about the pain. Once completed, I checked out and also was able to book my next appointment. Totally recommend this spot for all your Sugaring & Skincare needs.

Its been almost 2-3 years since my last visit (2020 )- only because I moved and decided to do laser hair removal (which was totally worth it!). Kelli was very professional and meticulous.

I am always impressed with her conversational skills to distract from what she's doing so close to your face or private parts. She has a natural ability to make you feel comfortable and I always leave happy with her work and that cozy feeling as if I had just caught up with a good friend! Scheduling is super easy thru the Vagaro app. If you have been curious about sugaring, I'd highly recommend going to Kelli for your first time!

Serena is one of the best, if not the best, sugarists I've ever been to, and I don't say that…read morelightly. I've lived in several different states and cities, so I've had my fair share of Brazilian sugaring and waxing experiences. She is incredibly detail-oriented, and I've never left an appointment with missed patches or stray hairs. She always makes sure to get everything. Beyond that, she truly goes above and beyond to provide the best care. I tend to get a lot of ingrown hairs, and she's been so helpful in teaching me how to prevent and treat them at home. She also takes the time to address them during each appointment, which has made such a difference. She creates such a comfortable, welcoming environment and checks in throughout the appointment to make sure you're doing okay. Brazilians are never completely painless, but Serena makes the experience as seamless and comfortable as possible. It's easily the least painful Brazilian sugaring experience I've ever had. I can't recommend her enough!

Sugar waxing has never hurt that much to begin with compared to regular waxing but it is still noticeably less painful with Britly, not to mention quicker and smoother. On top of that she's super chill and funny and your waxing appointment will feel like it goes by in a snap.

As someone who was really new to waxing / sugaring, Britly made me feel really comfortable about…read morethe whole experience and does such an amazing job! She's super good at putting you at ease, which is necessary if you have to get vulnerable for the service (for example, for a brazilian).

During the classes at JD Academy, one senior project option was submitting a business plan. I was excited because I already had a written plan and created a product line. I started my company, Midnight Star Esthetics Co., with an additional consideration for a flexible schedule for my daughter and family. When attending JD Academy, I was thrilled that there was a chapter about ingredients. I already had so much Knowledge, and I just wanted to keep learning as much as possible. This information helped me create the all-natural and effective skin care products. With this new knowledge of esthetics, I formulated my beauty line. I have done extensive research for each of my products. Understanding the knowledge of herbalism and aromatherapy, I created natural sugar scrubs, bath soaks, and medicinal salves. I incorporated aromatherapy, herbs, and oils to help rejuvenate and repair the skin. I love to explore old remedies and ancient beauty rituals. I find knowledge from others and peace in assisting individuals with their skincare routine.
