Alina is the OG of facials and skin treatment particularly acne treatments, I mean knowledge level God. Wax 10/10 and I've been to many ever since I lived in NY. She knows what she is doing . Facials 10/10 never fails , took a few friend of mines for severe acne within a month cured, clear skin And now she is doing micro-needling another 10/10 and on top she will provide you with after care lotions included in the cost. She is the true example that you do not need to break the bank to have beautiful skin. Thank you Alina for the many years of caring for my skin. Much appreciated read more

As the other reviewers wrote the same things. I agree with them. Please believe the reviews. And see more people reacted to those reviews. So not only reviewers but also more people had similar experiences. She is a racist. And she was rude from the moment I called her for an appointment. Seems like she hasn't learnt anything since over 10 years ago. She is the one from outside of the states but she treated me like a foreigner when I have a citizenship and from here. And she evaluated my face. And she talked about her friend's privacy to me forever. only because I have only one common thing with her friend. But for me, that was nonsense talking about that to me ... so wasting of my time. And she is super rude. One star is for the wax she used. That's it. If you go, prepare yourself for her rude interviews and her bad attitude. read more

Amazing facial. Alina is very knowledgeable and did a great job! I will definitely come back whenever my skin needs to be cleaned up a bit

I giving this review not because she is not a nice person, this review is just about my facial experience. I went there I think in total 3 times. In April 2018 I saw her for the first time and when I got home my face started to itch. I didn't think much of it until 2 days later I wasn't able to open my eyes because my face was completely swollen. I was desvated. It was itchy, it burnt and swollen. I didn't know what products that she used caused that but it was a painful experience. Alina Said she will try something different. So I went for the 2nd time. This time was ok I had no issues. But we did avoid the exfoliater that might have caused the allergic reaction before. But I stopped seeing her until a week ago, I went there and it was nice to see her again, but I think she forgot I had issues with the exfoliater, so when she put it on, it burnt so bad and we had to stop and she cleaned my face and uses another more gentle exfoliater. All went ok. The last step would be the cream that has sulfur in it. She asked me if Iam also allergic to that one and I said Iam Not sure but let's try. 2days later the same thing happened like 2 years ago, my whole face was itchy, it was swollen like a ballon ( I guess not even my parents would be able to recognize me). I took meds and had to put a cream on it. Bought tons of stuff to fix it. Again, it was not her fault BUT I wish she would have insisted putting the cream on my hand first and then see my reaction after 48 hours, since we both were unsure. And I think it was not only the cream but the exfoliater that caused that the server reaction. I won't come back as I think my skin is just not made for her products. Overall she is a nice person and we had a good talk but I wish she wouldn't touch her phone while doing a facial ( many people point it out here on yelp but she seems to be ok with it). She asked me why I haven't put a review on yelp yet, because I was never sure if I would want to give her a great review. I didn't feel I got what I have paid for. Just my experience. read more

Upon relocating to the area the hunt was on for a new skilled esthetician- key word skilled. African American skin has its own set of issues so I knew I needed to do my research. Alina is a GEM that I found on Groupon. Alina is truly skilled in her craft, she has been in the industry for over 20 years. She made me feel comfortable from the first phone call by swiftly scheduling me and giving me instructions on how to find the location. Brazilian waxes can be painful but Alina moves quickly yet gently, we had great conversation too which made the time go by even quicker! There is ample street parking. Her waxing and full facial services are extremely affordable. I will be returning for my facial in a few weeks. Thank you Alina! read more

This review is for Alina. Great Brazilian wax experience. She's extremely professional and sweet. I've gone to plenty places for a wax but this is my now go to because she's quick and does it the right way to feel less pain. Extremely clean in the lobby and her studio. Cash only Check the parking signs for street parking, the ticket patrols are always out read more

Purchased a Groupon for a wax at a GREAT deal. Had difficulty finding street parking so I ended up parking at the Dollar Tree lot which was a short walk away. When I first walked into the business, I noticed right away how nice the interior was. Very nice, warm and inviting. Alina was waiting for me in the waiting area. She led me into a room that appeared nice and clean. Warm colors, not sterile looking. Alina had me get prepared right away for the wax. She didn't step out of the room while I prepared which made me a little uncomfortable. I'm used to undressing in private then laying down with a towel for privacy, but oh well, I guess the price I had to pay for being a few minutes late. Alina was quick and appeared to be thorough in her search for unwanted hair. The wax temperature was just right and didn't feel to hot when she applied it with a wooden tongue blade. I couldn't tell if she changed the wooden stick between each application of wax. I would hope so. The thought of double dipping is not only gross, but I would think it would be a health hazard. Would I go back? Probably not, only because of the original price. Waxing is definitely a luxury, and this place is a nice place to do it though. read more

I've gone to Alina for about 2 years for waxing exclusively. This last time I went in I was struggling with bad chin inflammation and breakouts. Inflammation is a nightmare, especially since it seems to look worse when you attempt to cover it with makeup. I took her up on her offer for a facial treatment. She was very articulate and detailed. Your face will look not-so-pretty directly after treatment. But just trust the process. read more

I tried calling to book an appt and the woman who answered, Alina, was rude and difficult. I told her "I'd like to make an appt" she straight up cut me off and said "No, I'm busy today". Well I wasn't looking for today, I was trying to book for within the next couple of weeks. She lost my business. Waste of time. read more

My 500th review, woohoo! :D Used my Groupon deal to get a Brazilan wax with Alina today. Also, the Groupon deal is only for first timers, and afterwards, when you come back as a regular, it's $35 - not bad!!! Nice and acommodating lady, and of course, if she cannot make the appointment with you, she wil definitely call you back to reschedule. Something I appreciate with any professional since they are also respectful of your time as well. Alina is lightning fast, and I was done within 15mins. Stripping the exterior sting a little, but the interior didn't hurt as much, yay!!! I also dig that she got all the wax off, and so I didn't have a sticky residue feeling after. She kept me distracted the whole time (talked about dim sum, Din Tai Fung in Glendale, and both Carousel Restaurant locations in Hollywood and Glendale) while she worked her magic - very pleased with her work! :) She's located in a beige building called Touch of Class Medspa and Laser. There's street parking, or you can park in the lot down the street that Dollar Tree and Chipotle shares. The place where she works is nicely decorated, very serene and relaxing. Worth the trip coming back here whenever I'm getting waxed in Glendale. read more

I keep getting compliments about my glowing skin. I LOVE IT. I first met Alina when she had a salon in DTLA. As much as I liked her, I hated going there since parking is terrible. She mentioned she was moving to Glendale and I kinda forgot about it until I came upon an ad for her new spot. I made two appointments within a couple of weeks with her (for two different things) and was super pleased with the results both times. As I was leaving her office, one of the girls I usually go to texted that she was moving to a different location so I decided on the spot that Alina would be my new go-to for all my spa needs. Trust me - go see her. She can work miracles on you. read more

Excellent waxing experience. Definitely deserves 5 stars. I'm new to the state and needed waxing since May, it is now October. Yes, it took me five months, but it was worth the wait. Alina was offering a Groupon deal for Brazilian waxing like so many other people in California do year round. He reviews were the only ones that impressed me though. I loved that her customers spanned a variety of ethnicities and that they all had great experiences. I felt she'd be safe but perhaps not perfect. She truly exceeded my expectations. I didn't have an appointment, but she graciously fit me in. I told her over the phone that I had a Groupon and she was still very eager to get me in and provide full service. She was quick and thorough as she took time to repair an ingrown that I had been picking at doe a while. She definitely went above and beyond with that. I'm so happy I trusted her, I will return next month. read more

BEST aesthetician in town...& out! I have been going to Alina for many years and have followed her from salon to salon because I won't trust anyone else with my skincare needs. She knows just what to do for a flawless finish; I look 16 again! I have always had good skin (knock on wood), so I do not require extensive treatment. However, I have referred many friends that have more drastic needs and WOW! Everyone I've referred to Alina has become a regular because Alina truly knows skin and beauty!!!!! Resourceful, too! From masks to machines, she has everything to perfect your skin and offers advice on easy, daily routines for up-keep! My sister, who has explored the world of cosmetology more in depth than I, swears by Alina! Alina offers a number of daily, easy techniques to keep your skin looking fresh and flawless. She is extremely knowledgable in skincare solutions, from natural to cosmetic practices and loves to share her knowledge with her clients. As for pricing - very reasonable and affordable, especially when you consider the results! Skincare is no matter to be stingy about, however, you also shouldn't feel like you're being taken advantage of also. Come and visit Alina, you won't be disappointed! & don't forget to share your experience ;) read more

Came here for a Brazilian after finding Alina on Groupon. It literally was the fastest wax I've ever gotten - it only took ten minutes. It was easy making an appointment with her on the phone and when the time came, I was in and out of her salon. She uses a combination of hard wax and soft wax and it wasn't too painful. The prices here are great, I'll definitely be back for her great services. Thank you, Alina! read more

I am so thankful to have found Alina! After reading her yelp reviews, I came to her in a very desperate state. I had been trying just about anything to get my skin better and after starting my new dermatologist medications, it went through the purge cycle. Every single pore in my face had to purge before it started to clear the acne. I originally went to my highly reviewed dermatologists office esthetician, but after their "acne facial" my skin got so much worse. Alina's prices are very reasonable and she is incredibly thorough. I now am seeing her regularly and I have not had my skin feel like this since the last year. Thank you, Thank you, Thank you. You are in good hands. read more

Avant Esthetic Skin Solutions - Alina truly does wonders. Just after two visits I am left in awe of what she is able to change and improve in your own skin. - Hair Removal Near Me - Glendale, California

Warning: THIS PLACE IS NOT GOOD FOR BRAZILIAN WAXES!! I had my Brazilian by Alina and I bought a Groupon. I showed up at 4:15pm for my 4:30pm appointment. I tell the receptionist that I am here for Alina and she tells me to take a seat. I sit in the waiting room until about 4:35pm and I wonder why I haven't been called in yet. I walk up to the receptionist and I reiterate that I am here for Alina for 4:30 and nobody has called me in. Just when I was telling them the situation, Alina opens the door behind me and tells me, "you're late". Wait, wtf. I've been here for 20 minutes and nobody called me in and I'm the one who's late?! I walk inside and I tried to explain to Alina that I've been waiting outside for a while and she cuts me off while I'm talking and repeats that I am late, and goes on and on about how I'm late and how it's strange nobody called me in. How about hiring some better trained receptionists? .... I ignore her rude remarks about me being late, but she keeps bringing it up and I just say, "yeah, ok". I already have a bad feeling about this place by this point. She starts waxing and the wax was BEYOND HOT. I've done Brazilian for about a year now and I know that when wax is too hot, you tell your wax lady. I tell her that it's too hot and she says, "yeah, you're fine. It's okay." No I am freaking not, this shit is hot and I know when it burns, lady. She continues putting it on and eventually the wax cools. I do not appreciate her unprofessionalism at this point. During this wax, she points out that I'm breaking out hormonally and I should go see her for a facial. What the hell, I came here for a wax not a facial. I know I don't have the best skin, but I did not need her pointing it out and being rude about it. She begins to go on about how she specializes in acne treatment and she repeats again that im breaking out. I understand that businesses need to advertise their services, but I don't appreciate it when someone tells you to receive their services and points it out over and over again. On the pain level of the wax, it was pretty freaking painful. Because of the wax being too hot, my skin is severely burned now and the skin is peeling off. I've been doing Brazilian for a while and I can tolerate pain, but I will never come back here for any services. Alina's unprofessionalism and rude manner speaks a lot for this business. Beware of this place. read more

I moved to Glendale 6 years ago and I have been so lucky to find Alina. I have stayed with her ever since the first time I met her. She does Fast and Painless Brazilian waxing. It's only takes 15min or less. It only takes 15min if she sees I have ingrown hairs; she meticulously takes it out for me. Today I tried her FACIAL. I am glowing from the inside and out. The most painful part of a real facial are the extractions. Alina did it so well that I had minimal discomfort. I have gone to other ppl who have beat up and scabbed my face ... not Alina. I was able to leave her office today feeling happy and confident without any makeup. I didn't have to hide my face like I had been beat up haha . She is direct and straight to the point. I feel and believe she is a strong and sweet woman. She doesn't have time to bullshit and baby your feelings. She gets the job done and the results speak for itself. Alina, you are so wonderful and meticulous. I love going to you and I hope to see you again read more

ummm where has Alina been all my life? She has literally saved my face from what feels like a lifetime battle with acne prone skin. I was having such bad break outs right before I found her, i felt so defeated! i finally found her through Groupon, decided to test my luck since everything else i had already tried had not worked. I booked an appointment with her with little to no expectations, but i'm not even joking when i say that all it took was the first session for me to notice a HUGE difference in my skin. I kept scheduling appointments every month and now my skin is the best it has EVER been. People are always commenting on how nice my skin has gotten. I dont even have to wear make up all the time anymore to hide imperfections. She truly is a miracle worker. Not to mention that her prices are the best i have ever seen a facialist have in the LA area. Her approach is very straight forward and in a sense i guess you can say she's very "motherly" because she really has your best interest in bettering your skin and suggests products you should use depending on your skin type. Highly, Highly recommend her if you are struggling with acne prone skin. Or any kind of skin issue you may be having. read more

Found Alina on Groupon for a Brazilian wax appointment and will be returning for facial services. Very happy with the discovery.

The last couple years I've struggled with big cystic acne. I've tried everything from proactive, curology, oils, and topical treatments. Nothing has really worked for me until I magically stumbled upon Alina. I've been coming to Alina for about two years now and she's the best thing to ever happen to me for my acne. She really knows what's she's doing and she'll take great care of your skin. I'd highly recommend for anyone who's ever struggled with acne. read more

I'm going to be 100% honest, I hardly do reviews unless the service was either amazing or horrible. But all I can say... if you ever want to get a facial you have to come here ! Alina is super friendly and helpful. I've struggled with acne as an adult and I've been to many dermatologist seeking medical help. Yet without the proper knowledge you won't be able to actually treat your skin. She took the time to educate me on products that will benefit my skin and how to properly use each product. She's honest and tells you what is going to help and not what's not. Most places will try to up sell you on $$$ products that won't make a slightest difference in your appearance. I Will definitely come back!!! I'm excited to come back for a second session !!!! read more

Alina is my go-to! She is so experienced, fast, efficient, and affordable. I am in and out for a waxing in less than 15 minutes! She is THE BEST. read more

Alina is amazing! She is very nice and her work area is always clean and ready for the next appointment. She is a positive person who does her job very well. I go to her for waxing, first found her through Groupon and was so happy I keep going back for my waxing needs. Her prices are also great especially for her years of experience ! read more

This review is long overdue, I went to see her months ago but haven't had time to write a review. Alina is probably good for people with bad acne, based on her reviews. I don't know since I haven't had acne for a long time, but I did get a Lifebooker voucher for her ultrasonic facial and enzyme mask. My experience was far from good. She is very UNPROFESSIONAL, here's why: I arrived on time for my appointment but had to wait for her to finish another appointment. I waited about 10 mins before she saw me. During the treatment, her cell phone rang and she answered it without leaving the room and was on the phone with her 35 year old son, speaking loudly in the room for more than 5 mins! After her call, she explained that her son had injured his arm due to a hockey accident and she doesn't "why he's going to a Vietnamese doctor when there are so many doctors out there." Those were her actual words, and this was after she asked where I was from and I mentioned I was born in Vietnam. Seems like a racist thing for her to say. There are lots of good Vietnamese doctors out there. Finally, the 2 stars I gave her is not based only on her unprofessionalism and racist comments, but because her facial and the toner she adamantly told me I should buy from her have done absolutely nothing positive for my skin. read more

Bottom line: my Before and Current pictures say it all. My first facial with Alina was 12 weeks ago, and both pictures are taken without makeup, and without a filter. I found Alina through researching the best acne facials in all of Los Angeles. I spent hours researching estheticians primarily through reading Yelp reviews. Alina was by far the most consistently highest-rated facialist, and this is the second salon I have seen her in (her previous reviews are under her previous salon). She fulfilled every expectation I had of her during the first appointment. It was my first skin treatment/facial ever. She studied my skin and I asked a lot of questions. She was very warm-hearted, kind, and felt out what I needed (to be talked to, to be quiet, etc.). I wanted her to explain bacteria, acne, facials, treatments, ETC., and she did. She was a bacterial biologist internationally, and moved to the States, and is now (obviously) an esthetician. Because her education and YEARS of experience are rooted in bacteria, she is an expert in acne (caused and spread by bacteria). In just three months my inflamed acne is now fully gone, I have no active breakouts, and the redness is continuing to lessen by the day. Her results speak for themselves, however it is how she interacts with me beyond the treatments that impresses me. Throughout these three months she has text me to ask how I'm doing, works around my availability for appointments, remembers what's going on in my life and asks for updates, and genuinely cares about how I'm doing, in addition to my skin. I am not the type to seek out friendships in doctor/dentist/skincare appointments, however because my acne was so painful (physically painful and emotionally painful) it was extremely helpful to have Alina be as sincere as she was and continues to be regarding my progress. Without hesitation, I consider Alina to be the best esthetician in the Los Angeles area, and know that other clients of hers drive hours for their appointments with her. Parking is simple (some spots are reserved right outside, and street parking is plentiful). It is very easy to setup appointments with Alina, as she is flexible and will work around your schedule, as long as she isn't already booked. I have done this via over the phone, or texting. I have never needed to wait to be seen, either, as she respects her clients' time and makes sure as not to double-book. I also took Alina's advice and got two products she recommended for my skin recovery. It is clear that she doesn't suggest another appointment or a product simply to make money, but she is very passionate about skincare/health. read more

Brought to this place by the groupon gods, I came to Alina, who must have been a medieval torturer in her past life for my first ever Brazilian wax. Avoiding all do Cosmo Do's and Don't I went in without having taken a pain killer beforehand and wearing some tight ass pants. Once in the small room Alina immediately tells me to get undressed and I am brought back to my days in middle school gym. I undressed and began to tug on my shirt to cover more to which Alina said" honey, no need to be shy, I'm gonna see everything anyway" I jump on the table and Alina gets right to it. I get the most action Id gotten in months. My eyes were closed the whole time and my head turned away. At one point Alina asks me if I'm crying. Only on the inside I say to myself. Just when I wanted to walk out there, Alina said she was just about done. In total it was about a 15 minute process, which was a relief as most articles I'd read online said it would take about 30. would have probably walked half furball if that's the case. Alina may be tough, but she'll have you looking like your 10 year old self real quick read more

It was my first time seeing Alina. I got a deal for my facial and it was $49. I wasn't sure if this treatment would be beneficial but gave it a try anyway. She started off by exfoliating my skin and doing a mild peel then she did an extraction. She applied couple stuff to my face, including vitamin c and she used this stuff called high frequency. Whatever she did to my face, i feel my face is smoother. it helped some stubborn blemishes and scars. She will recommend her products to you but doesn't pressure you into buying. Overall, i was very impressed by her skills. I recommend her to anyone with problematic skin. read more

Love Alina & both her waxing and facial skills !! Receiving a deep thermal treatment. Her wax treatments never leaves ingrown hairs. Her facial was soooo cleansing! read more

Avant Esthetic Skin Solutions - Deep thermal mask after deep pore cleansing. - Hair Removal Near Me - Glendale, California

Alina is excellent Her wax procedures are professional and fast For a Brazilian wax, you want fast but also thorough Alina is both. She did an excellent job Did I mention it was fast ? I felt like 5 minutes passed and my entire Brazilian was done. I'm a wax veteran and she still stood out to me as comforting and kind. No matter how many waxes you get in life , you always want it to be as painless as possible. She made it as close to pain free as possible. I appreciated at that. Her price is lower than others (less than $50 is superb for the area ) I am now interested in a facial, and I feel like I will be happy about those results The location is great and parking all over, not an issue at all I'm new to LA and she made me feel welcome and gave me suggestions for places to go for grocery and fun etc She is my new "beauty lady" :) read more

I've been going to Alina for over a year, since I moved to LA. I never believed in facials until Alina. She is friendly, accommodating and patient, but most importantly, she does amazing work. Don't be fooled, this is not the place to have a relaxing experience- she performs painful extractions on areas of your face you didn't even know needed extractions. Your face will look mauled for the next several hours... But then you will be blemish free for at least the next few weeks and i promise you, you'll get tons of compliments on your glowing skin. Think of it as a preventative measure. I've tried going months without her, but I'm addicted to whatever magic she performs and just keep coming back. Pro tip: don't be late. She is a busy gal. read more

I have received two acne facial treatments from Alina. What can I say.. she is amazing and knows what she is doing. Acne is something I've struggled with for so long and did not know where else to turn to. I've seen dermatologists who prescribed me topical cream that did nothing for me. I got to the point where I just accepted my acne despite being unhappy with my appearance for so long. Now that I've received treatments from Alina, I've seen such a HUGE difference in my face. My face is so much more clearer and smooth. I use the toner Alina recommended and notice that my face no longer breaks out as much as it used to. I will continue to receive facials from Alina and love the transformation I've seen in regards to my acne. Thank you for your hard work Alina read more

It was my first time meeting Alina. I got a Groupon for Brazilian waxing. Alina is the first master who did it in 15 minutes. For me, it's amazing. The less time - the less pain. But the results were great no matter of the time spent. Next, I went to Alina for a facial. I'm really glad that I chose her. My skin looks much better and feels so soft and refreshed. Alina works very professionally and friendly. She does an amazing job with skin, quick and excellent. I give Alina five stars and recommend her to people who love efficient and successful procedures. I'll definitely visit her again. read more

I bought my first Brazilian wax session thru Groupon. When i called I felt like a lot of the people on here, Alina comes off strong and some take that as rude. I took my chance and went to the appointment anyway. When she called me in I told her i was nervous because it was my first time. She asked if she could take care of the person who should have been after me so she could take extra time with me. I agreed and waited, still feeling like this might not be a good experience. Once it was my turn she was a bit short and when i laid down i was tense. She started to explain everything and went over what she would do and what i would need to do. I started to ease and realized she was actually very nice, just a strong personality. She was quick and kept me distracted, yes it was painful, I expected that, yes there was some bleeding but nothing excessive. Most people are used to the fake niceness of so many business, Alina is great, with a tough exterior but sweet interior I guess it's not for everyone but i will definitely come back. read more

Alina is simply the best! Called her for an appointment for that same day, saying straightforward that I have Groupon for Brazilian waxing (I know how some places react on the word "Groupon"), but she was nice and found time that suited us both the same exact day. The place was very clean and with a lot of light, which is important. Alina was very friendly, professional, fast and payed attention to details! Waxing took only 15 mins, wasn't painful at all and we had a nice chat in Russian meanwhile. I'm glad I finally found my waxing lady! :) read more

Groupon led me to Alina. At less than $30 for a Brazilian, I had to go, even if it meant driving to Glendale during traffic hours! I called for an appointment and that same day, she had she had one available. She even bumped me up an hour and half before an appointment because of a no show. I took it! Although, my GPS got me a little lost, I called Alina & she was able to guide me in the right direction. I was able to find parking in a residential street across the street from the location. Finally, the moment of truth, waxing time! I arrive and the location is cute, professional and clean! I was nervous and shy, but Alina made it comfortable for me to trust her expertise. I came in at 5:45 and was out the door by 6! In 15 mins and I was a new woman! She treated me so well and she was able to get every single hair, unlike my other wax experiences. I'm so happy I found her! I even want to try her facials for my acne prone skin. I'm definitely going back to Alina so I can be as pretty as I feel more often read more

Alina is the bee's knees!!! My skin has gone bonkers the last few months and just when I had given up hope, Alina came to the rescue! I've never struggled with acne before, nor had a facial, so i was very apprehensive. I began searching for a place to get my first facial at and Alina had amazing reviews (rightfully so) AND i found a groupon for her facials! Score, done and done. The office is clean and welcoming. The extractions were terrible, obviously, but Alina kept me comfortable by talking to me about funny movies and music. She definitely put me at ease with her knowledge and explanations throughout the whole process. One week after she worked her magic and I am cured! My skin has not looked so clear and healthy in years! She even checked in on me a few days after to see how everything was healing. I couldn't recommend her more! read more

Yeah Alina for sure has a personality to herself, just a cranky lady lol who knows exactly what she is doing tho, I've been treating my face with her for my acne, and every single time I love the experience, I pay no mind to her, she is GREAT, we have very pleasant conversations in the middle of the process although I rather just lay there and let her do her thing. My face is absolutely amazziiiing,I love it the most when I apply make up, looks just perfect, my skin so soft. She really goes thru every inch of your face, great extraction. If your acne is making you not feel so pretty , go to her. She will fix it, also her face products are good good , and not expensive at all. read more

I have been going to Alina for over a year now for Acne facials, eyebrow waxing and facial waxing. I get the best care when I go to her. She never makes me feel rushed. She does quality work and I can see the results right away. Eyebrow waxing - I am extremely picky about who I go to for eyebrow waxing. Therefore, I go to Alina, I know she will make them look absolutely beautiful. She takes her time and my brows come out looking sharp thanks to her. Facial Waxing - She uses hard wax. My skin is sensitive. She is aware of skin conditions and is extremely gentle with it. I have never had skin issues after facial waxing with her. In the past, I would break out after facial waxing, but not with Alina. Acne Facial - I have been going to Alina for Acne facial for a while now. My skin is a 100000x better than when I started seeing her. She never pushes her products on me. Although, anytime I have ever bought something from her, it has definitely worked. I absolutely adore Alina, and I can't imagine going to anyone else. I trust her with my skin completely. She is kind and very caring. Some of the reviews here gave her a 1 start. Alina is fantastic people, show up on time. She is a busy lady, respect her time, and expect great facial results. read more

Alina is so great! Ive been using her for about a year now. She is easy to book with, I just text her and she gets me in pretty fast. She is friendly and makes getting a Brazilian wax so much less uncomfortable. She does an amazing job!! And makes it's as painless as possible. I'm now 7 month pregnant so I expected it to be more difficult, but it was super easy. Her rates are so affordable. She is professional. Highly recommend. read more

I have had problem skin my entire life. It has bad acne, showed every scar, and was very clogged with blackheads. I can use all those descriptions in the past tense now, all because of Alina. I found Alina on a whim about 6 years ago because I needed my eyebrows shaped. (My eyebrows are very curly and temperamental and need to be tamed on the regular.) She did such a fantastic job with that, I came to her for my underarms and Brazilian as well. Every time I would go she would say "your skin is so bad, just let me give you a facial. Just one" I finally let her do it and it was the best decision I ever made. My skin is clear, acne and blackhead free. She does peels and treatments so that my scars , even old ones, are few and far between. Alina is the only girl who will ever take care of my skin because she is truly the best at it! Best esthetician ever! read more
