Ambience: warm, cozy, clean aesthetic. Smells so nice and calming when you enter. You enter through the Girl on the Go spa facility, which has items for sale and Ariel's studio has lots of nice smelling candles, cleaning materials for your bottom if you need and Aesop hand sanitizer. Very well curated space Parking: So easy to find which makes coming to the facility an easy task. Service: Ariel is so down to earth and has a calming presence. She is so smooth with her technique, that I barely register any pain when Sugaring with her. She is very gentle! She is great about appointments as well. I appreciate that she still wears a mask when servicing to protect others and herself. My hair grows back way less than before which is a testament to her technique. I usually book Brazilian for every other month and it does not grow that much when I see her which is great. I love how long I can last, especially when I tend to grow body hair thick and fast. Highly recommend for Sugaring！ read more

Oh my goodness, I don't even know where to begin with Ariel and Bloom Sugaring! For background, I came across an Instagram giveaway Ariel had back in October 2020, won the giveaway, and have been coming here ever since for my hair removal services. This place is located inside the Girl on the Go Spa in Golden Hill. There's plenty of parking and I never have issues finding a place to park for my appointments. Ariel is such a wonderful, vivacious, and bubbly businesswoman. She runs Bloom Sugaring all on her own and is a complete badass. Her comforting personality definitely makes each appointment more like a catch up with a friend while simultaneously sugaring hair off ALL parts of my body, haha. For new clients, Ariel is very knowledgeable about her craft and has no problem educating and answering any questions. Ariel is great with all of her clients, new and returning. The types of sugaring services I've gotten here are: Brazilian, under arms, half arms, and sometimes eyebrows or lip. Naturally, the Brazilian hurts the most while under arms hurt the least (for me). I've never gotten a wax before aside from my eyebrows and lip, but I couldn't imagine getting a waxed Brazilian; a sugared one is very tolerable! Ariel is quick with her sugar flicks and quick to apply pressure to prevent any pain; I've never had any issues with pain during or after appointments. I originally started getting Brazilians monthly, but over time I've been able to go as long as 2 months in between appointments! I've come to discover that 6 weeks is my sweet spot. After getting sugared for 2yrs, I've noticed that my hair is coming in thinner and more sparse. I always leave feeling smooth and soft with the results lasting for several weeks. Sugaring works, y'all! Girl on the Go Spa is very clean and tidy, and Bloom Sugaring continues that vibe. Ariel has done an amazing job at creating a comfortable and inviting space. Whenever I come in for my appointments, I really feel like I'm giving myself some well deserved time for self care. There's usually vibe-y music playing with some lit candles, and Ariel ALWAYS has fresh flowers on deck (she puts the "bloom" in Bloom Sugaring). There are also drawings she created hung up on 1 wall and shelves with her products she recommends on another. Next time I come here, I'll make sure to post pictures! I could go on, but I'd be typing forever. If you've ever been curious about sugaring, I highly suggest coming to Ariel at Bloom Sugaring. Trust in Ariel and the process because it works! read more

I have been a client of Ariel's for several years and have nothing but great things to say about her and her business! She is incredibly skilled at her job while simultaneously making every visit seem like you are just catching up with a bestie! She makes sure to educate you and answer any questions while also keeping your pain in mind (without you having to say anything). I also have loved that she does more than just the bikini area so it's a one stop shop for some self pampering! She is a total vibe and I cannot recommend her enough! read more

Ariel is THE BEST! She is professional, thoughtful, funny, and can truly brighten your day with her positivity. Sessions with her are pretty much pain free, she listens, and she genuinely cares about providing the best sugaring experience while honoring the human sharing her space. She is a gem! And she was able to bring back to life my eyebrows after years of irrational plucking (elder millennial here)! She's your girl and her studio is a vibe! read more

I LOVE Ariel! She was recommended to me by my cousin and i am so pleased ! i was unable to see her the last few months due to having my baby and some personal matters , but during my time with Ariel as my sugarista, I was never disappointed! The conversation was always phenomenal and so personal. I felt like she had been my friend forever ! She will greatly be missed ! read more

Ariel has been such an incredible sugarista to me. She has made me so comfortable with myself and confidence and most importantly my body. I think allowing someone to get close into your physical personal life is a big deal but the longer you were her client the more she felt and became a close a friend. She is a LEGEND and makes the sugaring experience a breeze read more

How have I skipped rating this place for so long?!? First off the services are amazing. Ariel makes you feel like besties. She so positive and loving. She makes you comfortable from the get go! I mean it's never fun having hit removed from your body but she's professional and quick. Location has decent to ample parking in the area. She sells some amazing body butters and scrubs. And just yesterday I got this oil! Worth it! read more

I have been a loyal client of Ariel's for years now and have not found anyone better!! Ariel's skill in her craft is unparalleled, and she never fails to make me laugh, hype me up, and keep the process as painless as possible every time (and keep in mind, I am a HAIRY LADY - so this can be hard to achieve). I trust her like a sister, and I am going to be remiss to find anyone as skilled and personable as her. She is welcoming, witty, and a super safe space for all people. This doesn't even *begin* to scratch the surface of the respect and loyalty I have for her and her craft; don't pass up the opportunity to book with Ariel!! It feels like chatting with a bestie AND taking care of your body at the same time. A treat through and through! read more
