Essence Skin Clinic, under the ownership & direction of Jennifer Sanneman CLP, is an excellent resource in Midwest. They offer and exclusive and exhaustive list of skin care treatments that address each individual's concern to help you leave feeling your absolute best. Jennifer treated me like gold, giving me highly personalized service. I have had 3 major laser resurfacing treatments and could not be more happy with my results. Her eye for perfection and that standards by which she trains her staff are far superior to that of any staff in MN. The wide range of services they offer are cutting edge in technology. A poor review of this place would just mean that that person's issues go much deeper than a cosmetic visit. Unhappy people are hurting people that lash out at others. As far as I am concerned. This place is a little "slice of Heaven" in the midwest & Jennifer and her "angels" can help me out with my appearance anytime!!!!! ;)

My experience was not up to standard. There was no "welcome to the european wax center" or "thank…read moreyou for coming in today". The receptionist was very rude- she was short in her responses and was rushing me through the payment process. I haven't been to a European wax center for 10+ years so I asked if I could get the free wax, which she simply said "no". It seemed grimy and dirty in the front desk check in area with excess boxes around and dirty plexiglass at the desk. Then, my waxer did not even talk or spark conversation with me. (I know that an important part of a wax is the distraction...) I was the one asking the questions and keeping the conversation rolling. She didn't explain to me what she was going to do. It was hard to relax in her presence. In terms of the waxing- she would put on pretty large pieces/areas of wax. In my experience, I have had people use smaller strips so that it was more precise and not as painful. It also seemed like she lost her grip on the wax sometimes so she took smaller pieces of the larger piece of wax. I asked how much the inner thy add on would be and she said "$12", so I said that I would like to add it. (It was actually $20). At the end, I looked down and she missed some spots. I asked her to wax another strip where there was a HUGE line of hair (I have no idea how she missed it). There were some sparse hairs that she missed too and she told me to "tweeze them because it turns out I have very sensitive skin". I knew that I had sensitive skin.... I will not be returning due to their lack of professionalism and experience.

Jasmine is the person I see for my services and is efficient, meticulous, professional and a delight to be around. Another thing I appreciate about this place is they are very respectful of their clients time. I'm a busy working professional and don't have the schedule that would allow me to sit and wait in a waiting room for an extended period. The client as well as the business are held accountable and have a set schedule to keep. I know I will be able to make my next obligation with no concerns because of waiting. The prices here are also unbeatable. The packages have saved me a ton of money.

The stylists would not try to force annoying, pointless small talk through the whole appointment. I get some people like to be chatty and I'm sure they'd pick up on that too.
