I found EllaGance on GroupOn and decided to get the $20 Brazilian wax for one time only. Even though there weren't any reviews on Yelp yet, I decided to give it a shot. She was absolutely amazing!!!! The room was extremely clean and relaxing. Ella made sure that I was comfortable and talked me through every thing that she did. Getting a Brazilian is not the most relaxing procedure and can be extremely painful but she was extremely gentle and went slowly to make sure I felt no discomfort. This is definitely the best waxing I have ever gotten and I am never going to anyone else after going to Ella. Extremely friendly and sweet personality. She was very detailed and aware of making sure I was comfortable to the whole time. I have already recommended her to all of my friends and even made this account just so I could give her the amazing review she deserves. I am VERY pleased with my Brazilian and I would definitely recommend her to anyone wanting a painless waxing! read more

My name is Caroline and I got a sweet deal groupon at Ellagance for 3 brazilian waxes for 55$ and more so because Ellagance got such great reviews! I felt secure even before going in and had such a relaxing and light experience. Ella is such a sweet, welcoming, friendly and beautiful person and I felt so comfortable in her presence. I have only had one brazilian wax before but I could tell Ella definitely knew what she was doing and made it practically painless...but a lil pain never hurt anybody! I didn't have any skin problems in the days after and I'm still smooth as water thanks to Ella and her gentleness! I also had a good time talking with her and connecting on a few levels! She's a cool person and an awesome waxer. Go to her! read more

Oh...my... God. This woman is gold. Hands down the most painless Brazilian wax I've had in my life. And being Brazilian myself, I've had many wax experiences, in many places, including Brazil... Don't know how she does it but she blew me away. She might be young but she's a pro & has mastered her craft. Besides that everything else was impeccable as well. Great atmosphere, & she's a lovely person. Highly recommend. read more
