Such a friendly staff, I've been going to them for almost 2 years now the owner and her ladies are great. They walk you through everything before they start to make it easy for you... read more

Today I tried Essentials Esthetics for the first time for a Brazilian wax, this can be uncomfortable when going to new people due to how personal this is, and I must say my wax tech Siena, was amazing, very friendly and made sure I was comfortable during whole session, talked to me throughout everything and was able to get me in short notice and got my brows too. overall she made the experience great, and will be returning read more

Had the BEST experience with Siena waxing my armpits! It was literally painless (yes, painless), and she made the whole process so comfortable and enjoyable. Her space was clean, cozy, and inviting, and she made sure I felt completely at ease from start to finish. On top of being amazing at what she does, Siena is the absolute sweetest person--great conversation, super reassuring, and just such a gem. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for an stress-free waxing experience! read more

Great experience! Will definitely be returning, in fact, I already have my next appt scheduled! Miss Masako was QUICK! I was in and out within 15 minutes. Granted, I don't have a lot of hair to begin with but stillllllll was very impressed and happy to be in and out so quickly! Will be back! read more

I found this place from a Groupon that I purchased for a waxing. The initial appointment was easy to setup over the phone. Upon arrival I was greeted by Alyssa who was very welcoming and kind. I told her it was my first wax so she was very patient and took her time with me. The entire process was quick without any lingering pain. Since then I've returned a few times for my follow up waxes. Each time has been very smooth process. read more

I love it here. Moving from California I had a hard time finding a new waxing place but found this place and I love them! Diane who sets the appointments is a gem and she makes you feel right at home. Maria who usually does my waxing is the absolute best! She makes you feel at ease, she is really efficient and honestly makes you feel super comfortable. I would definitely recommend anyone to come here. They are definitely great and have great prices. read more

I'll never go here again. I was going to give it 1 star, but the only reason I gave it 2 is bc the very first time I came here I had a good experience-- the boss did my Brazilian wax and she was very professional & did a great job. But the second time I went, I don't remember the ladies name, she was a young Asian lady, her customer service was POOR. But that's not even the worst part. She double dipped my wax stick the whole time she was waxing. I felt disgusted bc at that moment I realized I wasn't the first or last customer she was going to dip their coochie sticks into the pit of wax that many customers use. & it just so happened to be the first & only time I left a wax with a BURNING sensation all over my pubic hair. I literally was burned or had a rash which caused so many ingrowns. I also had a Groupon, but she lied and said they no longer take groupons but I had just bought the Groupon 2 days before and mentioned the Groupon while making my appointment over the phone. Anyways, I wouldn't suggest going here really bc the double dipping of the sticks. That really concerns me. read more

I had a great experience as a first time waxer. I bought a Groupon and they squeezed me in for the next day. The owner greeted me and was incredibly kind and helpful. The other ladies in the waiting room shared that they've been coming to this salon 8-10+ years and that they would never go anywhere else. My waxer Felicia greeted me and showed me to the room, where she continued to share information on what to expect and the process. She was fast and incredibly attentive, and explained each step to me. She made sure I was okay, and we had great conversation the whole time. Based on my research, I wasn't expecting to come out completely bald since I have very thick hair and have been shaving for years. But she got EVERYTHING, even my ingrowns. I genuinely believe it wasn't that painful because of how talented and professional the estheticians are here. After an after-care talk, I booked for my next appointment at the front desk. If you're new to waxing or have had previous bad experiences, I highly recommend Essential Esthetics. They are so welcoming, talented, and professional. I am glad to have found this place and will be a returning customer! read more

I got a Brazilian sugaring done by Anna and she did an amazing job!! Super sweet and went above and beyond to make sure I felt comfortable. I will definitely be coming back on a regular basis. read more

I got my eyebrows waxed here for the first time yesterday, and I wish I remembered the girls name! She did such a good job, I definitely want to get my eyebrows done regularly by her! read more

I just moved to Washington from Arizona and have been searching for a esthetic salon that was decently priced, and boy did I find it! The prices are amazing and the receptionist and esthetician were so sweet and welcoming. Highly recommend and I saw miss Masako and she is very skilled and knowledgeable. Also, it was difficult to find without a sign, but go into the side door and up the stairs and there are plenty of signs inside. read more

Very nice establishment and great waxing services Very friendly and helpful staff. Defiantly will return for more services read more

Tu is fast and friendly. This place is nice and they follow all the Covid guidelines. It's hard to find a place where you can get comfortable. The first time I went, Tu made it so easy and relaxing for me. read more

I have been going to Essential Esthetics for years! I usually always see Dianna, the owner, but I have had the pleasure of being treated by a few of the other girls over the years. And no matter who I have seen, I received the same level of service. Dianna is the perfect balance of professional and down to earth. Every time I go, I feel like I'm going to catch up with my good friend, and quite honestly, I am! Dianna is a perfectionist, so every treatment is of the utmost quality. despite having seen her for years, she'll still talk me through parts of the procedure; which i find so calming. Because let's face it, a Brazilian is no walk in the park, even for a veteran. I totally recommend ! read more

I had a few dermablading treatments here and each time was a pleasant experience. Wendy was super chill and easy to talk to. Sometimes in spa environments you will get catty or fake women coming at you, or trying to sell a product. But Wendy was down to earth and refreshingly honest about what she thought I needed done. She never pushed anything on me or tried to get me to buy any products though. I appreciated that. :) read more

To begin, I LOVE miss D. I've seen Maria a few times now and she's absolutely amazing. Thank you ladies so much for everything. I've been terrified of waxing for ages now and they've helped me transition into regular waxes with ease! I'd absolutely recommend them to anyone. read more

What a phenomenal experience. I will continue to come back. Very knowledgeable staff, and felt very comfortable to be there. I highly reccomend! read more

Got a Groupon for a Brazilian and had Tu as my waxed. She was awesome! I was done in about 10 minutes. The pain wasn't as bad compared to other places I've had it done at. Definitely will be back, especially since maintenance is only $35 versus $55. read more

Very professional and made my experience as comfortable as possible! If you go to the location in bonney lake look for the wax wizard. I was recommended by a friend and was nervous because I have such sensitive skin but I was happy to find such a great spot! read more

I live about 40min-an hour away, and i will not go anywhere else to get waxed. I have been seeing Diana for almost three years, and she is seriously the greatest. Her Brazilian waxes are clean, she is great at what she does and shes funny. I recommend her to all of my friends looking for an esthetician. She's kind, professional and informing! She will inform you on products and skin care that will help and keep you still in your budget. read more

Got a groupon for 3 waxes and I will continue to go here for my Brazilian. She knows what she's doing and wants you to feel beautiful. Fast and efficient she will get the job done with as little pain as possible. HIGHLY recommend coming here. Amazing prices and great service. P.s. try to pay with cash(; read more

The best place to go! I love Tu for my Brazilian waxes. She is a speed waxer, which I prefer, to get the job done quickly. I can appreciate her professionalism and always being on time. read more

I came to Dianna here at Essential Esthetics all because of a Livingsocial offer! Well best offer I have purchased from any of those discount coupon sites! From making my appointment to meeting Dianna in person I knew I could trust her with what I need to get done with professionalism and TLC since it was my first time getting this kind of service done. She was amazing in coaching me through it and I survived! I haven't stopped seeing her, especially since she recommends every 4 weeks to get "touched up". Dianna owns this business and has since moved from leasing a space at Salon Da Vinci to her current space which is adjacent to the Taco Bell on Meridian and into the building where there is a salon on the bottom floor and various other businesses. You can park in the tiny lot or at the Taco Bell. After you have reached the second floor, there is a little doorway which is a set of stairs leading you up to her office. She has her own space up there, just the rooms in suite 300! She has also hired a few more people to help grow and accommodate more people in her business but I prefer my Dianna. She is awesome, listens to me as she works away and before I know it I'm all done! Her prices are way too reasonable than any other place who would charge you an arm and a leg (literally). I have a hard time believing reviews like you, but trust me, I know what I know and if you need any kind of service, as she does way more than just waxing, Essential Esthetics would be the place to go! Check out her site! Just don't book her up too much that I can't get in! read more

Used a Groupon, and I have to say this will be the only place I'll be getting waxed while I'm here in the area!!!! Staff are professional, and very nice. I never felt uncomfortable during my appointment. Never had a "hard wax" wax before, and have to say it was a much better experience than with the strip :) can't wait for my next appointment! read more

Anna did such a great job with my Brazilian wax. The entire service was quick and she made it as pleasant as possible for me. Will be returning. read more

So let me start off with I've been getting a Brazilian wax for over two years, and this being the second time I have come to this establishment. The very first time I went in July, before vacation, the technician was lovely and the Brazilian I received was virtually painless. Only complaint I had at that visit was that she missed a couple areas, and the service seemed rushed. When going to book my next appointment on their webpage, I noticed a lot of the girls changed. Because the girl who first worked on me was no longer an option, I selected the owner to do my next wax so that I would know what her standards were for this service, to prevent confusion with future appointments. Fast forward if you will to yesterday. Not only was I not properly checked in or anything, but they passed me off to what had to have been a new technician, Mariana (I want to say.) Now, I say she must have been new, because within the first 5 minuets you could tell her wax technique wasn't consistent with other technicians. What is supposed to be a 30 minuet window, was an hour and a half long appointment, during which I received burns to my genitals because of the temperature of the wax, and have scabs and bruising from improper technique. Never have I been in so much pain from a Brazilian, that I have cried, especially not while being worked on. Upon returning home, I examine my genitals to see the damage done. There's still hair everywhere she waxed,even though certain areas she went over it 5 times, because her technique is off. There was still blue-green wax on my skin. The skin is pealing in spots. The amount of oil and powder she used loosen wax stuck in hair was excessive and still evident in the hair left on the supposed waxed parts of my body. I have a 3 inch burn on the crease of my thigh from the wax, as well as splotches of burns on the top of my genitals. I sang praises about this shop after my first visit, because I really did think it was great. After the damage of yesterday's appointment, I'm not going back. read more

I had the worst experience! The wax was way too hot and the tech did not stop after I told her! Not a clean environment at all! It was very painful and in the past it's painful but not like this!! read more

Had my first ever facial here and it was amazing! When I called to make the appointment, the receptionist helped me determine which facial would be best for me. I was originally interested in one of their more expensive facials but after asking me some questions, she informed me that facial wasn't really right for me. I really appreciated that she didn't take advantage of my lack of knowledge and just schedule me for a super expensive service. A woman named Tu did my facial and she did such an amazing job! I felt super relaxed and she gave a wonderful massage. She was very friendly and gave me some tips on how I should be taking care of my skin. I will definitely be coming back here! read more

Wanted to update and confirm that my credit card company did find these charges to be unauthorized and unethical so they did refund my card the $55. Like I said before I truly hope this was worth the loss of a trustworthy client. Beware and never give this company your card number or card to swipe!!! read more

I have been coming here since October for waxing and I love this place! I found the offer on groupon and so glad I did! Diana is awesome and so are all her employees. I now come in every 4 weeks and won't go anywhere else. read more

I never do reviews but Wendy was great. Last Brazilian I had was very painful I was left burned and bleeding. Wendy was super sweet and skilled. It was the least painful Brazilian I have had and she was thorough. read more

First let me start by saying WOW Elena was my esti today she gave me a signature facial her touch, technique and knowledge were impeccable! This was my first time in I'll definitely come back, between service quality and sincere friendliness combined with cost this place is hard to beat! Don't be discouraged by the small 3rd floor boutique accommodations the gals working here know there stuff and show pride in their work! I've been receiving skin treatments for 16+ yrs having worked for a few 5 diamond luxury resort spas in Arizona and I can honestly say I was pleasantly surprised to get such a high quality facial in a small town in the Northwest! Thank you so much Elena it was exactly what I needed!!! read more

Best facial I've ever had! Dianna is so sweet and really knows what she is talking about. She took her time and made sure I was relaxed. I will be back! read more

Diana is lovely and highly knowledgeable and Tu did an amazing job! Highly recommend-very professional yet fun and relaxed atmosphere

Bought a Groupon for this place after reading the Yelp reviews and I'm glad I did! The girl who did my wax was awesome and pleasant. Never had a Brazilian before, just bikini. Ouch! But so worth it. Love it! read more

BEST place to get a wax, ANYWHERE. I've been going to Diana for almost 2 years now after seeing a Groupon for a great priced Brazilian. I've moved around in the those last two years, including currently living in Hawaii & I still plan my trips back to WA based on my waxes. No where has ever come close to the delicacy & precision as Essential Esthetics & prices are unbeatable, especially when you're a regular customer (which you will quickly become.) I always did hard wax but recently did sugaring & they're both awesome when you have such great estheticians! read more

Just moved into the area and I'm so glad I found this place. I've been getting Brazilian waxes for 12 years and this is the LEAST painful experience I've had thanks to Elizabeth! She did such an amazing job and made sure she got EVERYTHING! I will be a regular here from now on. Thanks again! read more

Man, Diana really knows what she's doing! Went in for a simple brow wax, and came out with the best looking brows I've had in my life, no joke! Returned again a month later, and Diana cleaned them up again. They have a shape! My brows have never had a shape. Needless to say, Diana is now my forever person. Can't wait to try her other services! read more

So glad I found this place! I've had many brazilians with different kinds of waxes and techniques. Not only was I given the usual after-care instructions, but the reasons behind them were explained. The owner is a master esthetician and educated me on what was being done and why, and even about the different types of hair. The waxing room was very tidy and the single-dip procedure was used. Her prices are unbeatable and I will absolutely return. read more

I saw Dianna for my for my first Brazillian. She was great. Made me very comfortable. She had me laughing. She was very encouraging. Definitely coming back. **** FYI If you have an iPhone use Waze or something else for directions. iPhone directions sends you to nowhere. read more
