I've been going to Peggy L. for about 2 years now. I struggle with cystic acne and oily skin. I am…read morevery picky when it comes to my skin because as a melanated girl, I have to be mindful. I have to say she is wonderful, attentive and overall a kind lady. The atmosphere is very relaxing and calming. My skin has been doing very well since I've been to her. Although I moved out of state, whenever I come back it is a must I go in to see her. I've seen a significant difference in my skin these past 2 years. I 10/10 recommend!

I like Peggy. She's a nice person. However the cot she uses for some of her treatments is very…read moreuncomfortable. There appears to be a more comfortable bed that she uses but not for every treatment. I came in for a facial with extractions which is one of her more basic treatments. I hurt my ankle climbing onto her small cot because my foot made contact with the heavy metal frame (big bruises on my ankle after impact on metal frame). There's several blankets but no mattress pad on a hard metal frame and the blankets were lumpy and uncomfortable to lay on top. She should put a thick pad on top of the metal cot so people don't get hurt like I did. Be careful if you have to use her small cot or request to use her more professional bed which she has on display next to this uncomfortable and dangerous hard cot. I have never seen anyone use this kind of cheap and unsafe set-up for a facial bed. Sad. The treatment itself was 50 minutes and involved a lot of hot towels, steaming and chemicals. Since I use tretinon which is a prescription strength retinol, my skin is very sensitive. Everything Peggy put on my skin including aloe vera burnt. The experience was unpleasant. Peggy herself was coughing a lot in the beginning of the treatment. The prices have increased a little bit from the website. Peggy gave me the website price after I pointed it out and I tipped her too. Update: I told Peggy that I wanted one particular milia extracted and this morning I noticed that it was not completely gone. Very disappointed, especially after her cot hurt my ankle.

SO MAKE SURE YOU CHECK WITH HER IF YOU GOT THE GROUPON DEAL AS WELL! (It was pretty easy to get a refund from Groupon) She was really nice and made me feel less awkward by keeping conversation going during the waxing process. However, she wasn't wearing any mask during COVID and the skirt robe she provided me seemed a little dirty so the cleanliness was a bit questionable although it might have been just stains. (Hence, -1 star) Overall, it was a good experience and I'd visit again!
