I was recommended this place from a trusted friend & so happy I came here! Jessie was super sweet, so welcoming, and made me feel really comfortable throughout my waxing appointment. I was nervous when I walked in and left feeling great! Highly recommend Dirty Bird! read more

From booking the appointment to leaving the salon, this was an overall great experience. Booking was very easy and online! Appointments were available later in the day after work, and I had no problem finding an appt the same day. Parking was also simple but I know this may not always be the case given the location. Brows looked great and I felt super welcomed . Will definitely be coming back ! read more

Rating this place 4.5 stars. One of my favorite places to get my waxing done. I was recommended to go to this place by a friend. Meghan, the owner is so friendly and welcoming. Pros: I love this space. You can tell it's very clean and the decor is very intentional. The process from booking to getting your service done is seamless and straightforward. I have not tried the other waxers outside of Meghan and Madeline (she has her own space now) but have heard great things. Cons: parking can be hard to find since it's on K Street which has some popular spots. read more

Evelyn was fantastic! She made me feel super comfortable while doing my Brazilian and was so nice to chat with! The best wax service I've ever received. She went above and beyond to remove every bit of hair on my lip and chin too. I highly recommend! The shop was so cute and cozy too! read more

I had a major hairy emergency! I typically wax myself but completely forgot to take care of it prior to my annual office party, where there's a lot of dancing. I didn't want to be a hairy party goer, so I came straight to Yelp! for a recco, and found Dirty Bird Esthetics. I was able to easily make an appointment online with Jessi. The salon is tucked away in a cute brick building on K Street, near 23rd. I arrived a little early for my appointment, and as soon as I walked in, I was taken aback by how adorable, pink, and girly it is! It's a total vibe, with a girly vintage aesthetic, and it smelled good in there too. It's not only an esthetics salon, but also a bonified gift shop with jewelry, lighters, lip gloss, and witchy stuff. Right up my ally. Jessi's room was clean and comfortable, she is very personable, a great conversationalist, and her waxing skills are quick and efficient. She cleaned and prepped the area first, waxed, and applied after care. I felt so comfortable with her, and her skills that I didn't even check to see if she did a good a good job. I just knew that there wasn't a single hair left behind - and there was not. I was able to run over on my lunch break, and was back at work right on time. If I ever have another hair emergency, and find my self in a sticky situation (no pun intended), I will go see Jessi at Dirty Bird without hesitation. read more

I almost never write reviews, but Dirty Bird deserves some praise. I've been getting waxed here for about a year now and every single time I have the best experience. Jessi is my girl!! She's sweet, charismatic and always gives me a great wax (and gossip sesh). She feels like one of my friends at this point! The vibe is amazing and it feels so cozy and welcoming in there. The owner, Megan, seems to be a great boss who really cares about her team and clients. I used to get waxed at a different local waxing studio (take a guess where) for years, and after too many so-so experiences, I decided to make a change. I'm sooo glad I found Dirty Bird. I've never been met with such a welcoming staff and environment. I highly encourage you to support this local girl boss studio!! read more

I've been a loyal client of Meghan Vanderford at Dirty Bird Esthetics for years, and I honestly wouldn't trust anyone else with my waxing needs! From the very beginning, when it was just her doing everything on her own, I knew she was something special. Now, even though she's expanded and has a team, the quality of service and the warm, personal touch she provides have never changed. I travel all the way from Roseville to see her because I can't imagine going anywhere else for my full-body waxes. Her Brazilian waxes are quick, efficient, and virtually painless--seriously, she's a master at what she does. The results always leave me feeling smooth, confident, and well taken care of. What I love about Dirty Bird Esthetics is not just the skill, but the entire vibe of the place. It's always clean, comfortable, and welcoming. Plus, Meghan Vanderford is incredibly professional and personable, making every appointment feel like a relaxing experience. I've been recommending her to everyone I know, and I'll keep doing so for years to come. If you're looking for a skilled esthetician who genuinely cares about her clients, Dirty Bird Esthetics is where you need to be! read more

first off, i had to change my appointment time the day before. Not only were they so accommodating, but they even called back with suggestions that might have worked better for me and my schedule. totally considerate and definitely giving that little extra to make me feel like they care. At the actual place, it's so welcoming and funky looking. in the best way. It felt like going to a cool friend's apartment who has nice shit and definite insta worthy picture opportunities. I had been waxed before, but not there. they were amazing at explaining what was going to happen and what to expect. the wax was quick and efficient, and my lady (I think Brittany?) was hella nice. she made me feel comfortable and relaxed. Conversation flowed easy, and she was super chill. Definitely would recommend. It'll absolutely be my go-to for all my waxing needs! read more

I came to Dirty Bird for my first ever Brazilian wax with Evelyn. She was an absolute gem and made my first experience very easy-going and comfortable. I was admittedly nervous and self conscious, but I just had to remind myself that she's probably already seen it all. Evelyn is so sweet and personable, and she was super easy to talk to - never did I feel judged or insecure by her. She answered my many questions and did a great job of explaining aftercare to me as well. She takes sanitation seriously and keeps her area very clean and tidy. She provided a mini aftercare kit at the end of my appointment, which was greatly appreciated. As for the shop itself - it's super vibrant, pretty, and clean! 10/10 recommend, and will definitely be back in a month for my next appt with Evelyn! read more

I appreciate the owner's great customer service skills as she kept a calm friendly atmosphere while I got a Brazilian done. I'm always appreciative of the chat to get the mind off the task at hand, and prompts to breathe is always helpful before the pull! She never made the appointment feel like a rush as she did use the tweezers on some stubborn hair. the aftercare kit was also a nice touch h for the first timer at her establishment. thank you for great service! read more

Always great service! All the ladies are so lovely and a fun vibe. Great business. Note: yes, they are in midtown so street parking (not their fault!)- just allow a few minutes to park. read more

This place is sooo fire guys let me be honest. It's my first wax in like 10 years, I'm like "I have a real job now, let me get a freaking wax" so I book one. I browse the internet and I choose the one closest to my house with the coolest logo and the easiest website. I walk in on the day of my appt, immediately I feel like I'm inside of a creamsicle. It smells great in there, everyone is so nice and helpful. You guys know that episode of greys anatomy where Christina discovers the dermatology floor. That's how I felt. I had a wax with Jessi, let me clarify, full Brazilian. I'm going bald for the winter. Pubes b gone type beat. I don't know what Ted talks Jessi has watched or what kind of books she's read about being a conversationalist but I fear i need her to make a skillshare on how to be cool and likable. I'm kind of an awkward person already and then you stack that with being naked on the bottom half in front of a stranger about to rip my pubes off and yeah, I'm gonna be more awkward. Not here! Not with Jessi! Getting actually waxed is arguably not that fun, but I will be doing it again because I think this is just about as fun as a wax can get. Jessi was so chill and made me so comfortable and made me feel pretty and cool. I also got a fun little goodie bag and detailed instructions for aftercare and now I'm bald and I know where the creamsicle waxing palace of goddesses is. If u need a wax go here. I didn't look at their other services but I'm sure they are just as wonderful and I will be trying them. Thank u Dirty Bird. read more

I cannot express how amazing this place is. I had been a client of European Wax Centers for a decade, and now this bird has joined the Dirty Bird Flock. I've been doing all my services with Brittney, and she is an absolute treasure. Although, honestly the whole entire team is lovely. They just make you so comfortable and really take care of you. It's very easy to set up an appointment, and it's pretty easy to get to their location too. Once you're inside it's like walking into what feels like home. The décor, AMAZING, the music, AMAZING, the books and candles, AMAZING! I would say its a safe and inclusive environment that I definitely cannot recommend this place enough! read more

I usually get sugared but the person I normally go to canceled all her appointments due to being sick. Normally this isn't a problem, but I was heading out on vacation the next day, so I needed to rip out some hairs. I frantically checked around Sacramento and saw Dirty Bird had availability for the morning. Booking was all online, and super fast. Brittany was incredibly responsive. I got there a little early and we started right away. I was in and out with an underarm and Brazilian in about 40 minutes. Brittany was incredibly professional and easy to talk to. When I didn't understand something she was asking, she took the time to explain it. Also, waxing is so much less painful than sugaring! I'll still be loyal to my sugaring person, but once she retires, I'll be getting waxed. read more

I came in for a lip, under arm and eyebrow wax. It was my first time getting waxed so I was not sure what to expect , Brittney was amazing and explained everything to me. She was very sweet and gentle. The place is very clean and smells so good! You can tell everyone enjoys working there. They put their touch on the decor, it looks so pretty in there! I am excited to be back in 5 weeks or so. read more

Absolutely love Dirty Bird Esthetics! Evelyn is truly the best--she's a waxing wizard who makes you feel totally at ease. The whole vibe is safe, welcoming, and exactly what every girl needs. Can't recommend enough! read more

I'm so glad I switched from a chain waxing spot, to this AWESOME local business. Very clean and a fun, groovy vibe. Evelyn is excellent!

Great vibe in this place and friendly, professional service. I got a face wax and was very pleased. I plan to return .

Came to Dirty Bird for the first time since I moved to the Sacramento area and I'm so glad I did! Evelyn was so friendly and welcoming, the place is beautifully decorated. Will definitely be returning! Thanks Evelyn!! read more

First of all, how cute is this place ?! From the bathroom, to the waxing room the aesthetics are unmatched. Today was my first time ever getting a wax at this spot, booking was easy I just went on their site and requested an appointment for a Brazilian wax ($60) I just wish they had packages! Some places do like 4 Brazilians for a set price that you can redeem throughout the year and I really like that concept. My request was accepted almost immediately. I was greeted immediately by my wax artist Evelyn, she made me feel comfortable from start to finish. She asked me my preferences and if I would like any designs. She explained the different approaches to make me feel as comfortable as possible (ex. counting down, breath work, or to not tell me when she will be pulling the strip). This was very much appreciated. I also really appreciated her attention to detail and making sure that I left feeling better than before I walked in. She also gave me a little care package while explaining the products to me. Amazing customer service, clean and cute interior. Thank you Evelyn ! read more

I LOVE coming to Dirty Birds every 4 weeks!! The service here is TOP NOTCH, from the front desk, to the waxers and to the owner herself is AMAZING!! The decor in each wax room and also the bathroom is so darn cute! Let's not forget my favorite, the "Oh hey, Sexy!" On the wall to your left as soon as you walk inside to check in. I also love that there are different displays of products for sale that anyone can purchase before or after an appointment. Dirty Birds has a wide range of products for sale! From aftercare to candles to keychains! Every visit here, I feel the love from everyone! All the lovely ladies here at Dirty Birds have created such a loving, safe, and judgement free waxing studio. There have been multiple times where I've been self conscious about how I look prior to coming here and these ladies always make me feel so damn comfortable. It always feels like i'm catching up with old friends here. If you have been debating about whether or not you should schedule that wax appointment, DO IT! YOU WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED!! Meghan, Evelyn and Madeleine are amazing at what they do! All 3 of them are very thorough and make sure you're happy with your services and remove any unwanted hair that you do not want! I also forgot to mention that Jessi up front can also help you prebook your next appointment so that you stay on schedule with your wax appointments! I love you ladies, can't wait to see you in 4 weeks!! read more

I got a brazilian and my brows done for the first time ever. Everything ran super smoothly and all of the staff members were so welcoming. Definitely recommend getting waxed here!! read more

Love this place. The ladies are so friendly and make you feel comfortable. The interior is super cute

The decor at Dirty Bird is very cute and welcoming and I love that they hired a local artist for the fun flower designs. I saw someone post about Dirty Bird and I decided to give them a try. I got my eyebrows done by Madeleine and she was so nice and very detail oriented. She asked what I wanted and I told her I wanted them cleaned up and I'm trying to keep them as thick as they can be. (The skinny eyebrow trend of the 2000s made it hard to have really thick eyebrows. RIP by eyebrows). She really took her time and walked me through everything. She used a really bright light to make sure that they my brows were looking good. She even offered to fill them in! I've been getting my eyebrows waxed for a long time but no one has offered to do that in quite some time. The shop is in on the first floor in an office building with individual suites. You walk through a hallway on the left side and their shop is on the right towards the back. It's right in midtown on K Street, it's a great location but there's only street parking. You definitely want to give yourself enough time to find a spot, especially on weekends when it gets really busy. Dirty Bird is definitely my new wax spot and you should check it out too. Top notch service! read more

Dirty Bird is above and beyond what anyone could expect. The girls are so kind and welcoming, and the services they perform are always a 10/10. They truly deserve a 5 star rating. I regularly get a Brazilian wax and underarms as well. I leave feeling clean and set up for my at-home care. There are products for every down-there-care need and I've tried just about every recommendation Meghan has given. Speaking of Meghan - talk about an inspiring person! The world she's created within the walls of Dirty Bird is EPIC. Thank YOU Meghan, for the years (wild!) of conversation and advice. read more

Meghan is an absolute delight -- I went in to get my brows done after a traumatizing over-waxing at a chain. I was nervous, but Meghan is so kind and disarming and immediately had a plan. She shaped them in such a perfect, flattering, modern way and filled them in (which helped me see how to replicate them at home). As an elder millennial who suffered through the overplucked thin brows of the 2000s, I thankfully never went super skinny; however, I'd never updated my shape and Meghan did it perfectly. Beyond that, Meghan is so friendly and open and the decor, vibe, and look of the space is clean and so FUN! It's such a special place -- I love it (truly something I never thought I'd say about waxing place). read more

Okay, so I never leave Yelp reviews but Dirty Bird is just THAT GOOD. I've officially waxed with all of the girls and can confidently say that everyone is amazing at everything! I recently moved to the area and am very protective with my brows (prior to Dirty Bird, I went to the same esthetician from my hometown for 20+ years). Despite my nervousness, both Meghan and Madeleine (on separate occasions) listened to my waxing preferences and did a MAGNIFICENT job. I received lots of compliments on my brows in the days following. For Brazilians, everyone is amazing, but when I first started going, I booked with Evelyn and she made my first wax at Dirty Bird very comfortable and relaxed, and I was very happy with the results. Also, these studios are incredibly clean. I'm a bit particular about cleanliness in waxing studios, and Dirty Bird most definitely exceeded my standards. I typically book after work, which notoriously will keep me later than anticipated, but any time I call the front desk and inform them I am running a couple of minutes late, Dirty Bird is incredibly understanding and still very welcoming and kind despite any inconveniences. Overall, I trusted a Yelp review to try out Dirty Bird in the first place, and this studio is soooo good that it deserved a review! I recommend to new waxees, anxious waxees, waxees looking to switch estheticians, or transition away from European Wax Center (no shade haha). 10/10! read more

100/100 stars Meghan! I have been professionally waxed once before at another establishment and from that extremely painful experience I never went anywhere else again and started waxing on my own. Yes, on my own.... Ouch! Which would take me about a week to do in small stages and often I wouldn't even complete the task and give up... hello razor. Fast forward today, after much research I finally decided to take the plunge once more with Meghan at Dirty Bird.... And I'm never looking back. I was nicely greeted upon walking in and let's talk about the decor! The place is so cutely curated down to the bathroom and toilet paper. It's in those moments I started to feel at ease and confident nothing was going to be overlooked during the service. You can tell there is thought, care and attention to detail. The service was ....can I say?.... Fun! I received the Brazilian and full legs waxed, all in all took a little over an hour. I felt like I was hanging out with a friend and felt very comfortable. I have extremely thick hair and overall the pain level of the whole service I would say was about a 4. I can't believe I have been in pain doing this myself!! Upon checkout I was given a little sample bag with products to help with ingrown hair, a mask, skin oil, a branded lollipop and stickers. Thank you so much Meghan and I will see you again in 5 weeks! read more

I got my underarms waxed for the first time by Meghan and the results turned out amazing! Such a cute spot that made me feel comfortable. Great service and pricing for an experienced team! Will definitely be coming back. read more

My experience at Dirty Bird truly was the best wax experience I've had! very excited to have found this gem in Sacramento!

I'm so glad I finally got the time to go see Meghan at Dirty Bird. It's been on my wishlist for a long time and she's a wonderful women and a great waxer. The place is super cute, the vibe is great, and the Brazilian is epic. Glad to see she is doing what she loves and being a boss ass bitch while at it. :) read more

I had my first appointment at Dirty Bird and I was blown away by the whole experience!! When I walked in I was warmly greeted by the beautiful women of Dirty Bird and they instantly made me feel welcomed. The salon itself blew me away with its thoughtfully curated designs, decorations and even scent. I went to the bathroom before my service and audibly gasped when I opened the door because I was not expecting it to be as cute as it was! You can tell so much thought and love went into decorating every inch of that place and it really is a unique spot. I had a full Brazilian done by Brittney and she was amazing and did an incredible job! She was super easy to talk to, very detailed and asked along the way my preferences and what I would like during the service, and she left me feeling sooo smooth. Her technique was gentle (as gentle as it can be getting your hairs ripped out) and meticulous. I would 1000% come back to her! To top it off, I was gifted a free aftercare goodie bag with some skin care samples for maintenance between appointments, a cutie lollipop, sticker and of course a pamphlet with all of the aftercare info you need. Safe to say Dirty Bird makes ripping your hair out actually an enjoyable experience to look forward to lol. Overall, I had such a positive experience at Dirty Bird and I will definitely be adding this place to my list for beauty maintenance :) read more

Moving to Sacramento from Boston I was thrilled to find Dirty Bird Esthetics!

1000/10 recommend! The best waxing in Sacramento! I don't even know where to start... when you immediately walk in the atmosphere is so girly, I love it. They have a sticker machine and gum-ball machine so I'll definitely be making sure I have quarters for every visit! The staff is so friendly and the receptionist is so bubbly. I booked with Madeline and I couldn't have been more satisfied with my decision. She's so attentive to detail and she definitely knows how to keep the conversation going, I will be coming back REGULARLY. Thank you ladies read more

Amazing customer service and the decorations inside are mesmerizing. I had a great experience unfortunately I can't upload pictures of my results because that would be a little bit too much information but just let me tell you that everything went well and everything looks well thank you ladies.!!! read more
