I've been a loyal customer since 2020! Brenda was so gracious enough to help me with my skin when I was really going through it. I've continued to see my skin improve through my time with her. She always provides such a welcoming space. Definitely recommend booking her if you're in the area. read more

At Fully committed Esthetics I had an amazing experience with my facial. Thanks to Branda she provided excellent service.

Super nice, super friendly. The results have been great. She helped me clear up razor bumps I had had for months.

I became a client of Brenda's back in 2022 on my 21st birthday and since then I've remained her client. She is kind, relatable, and attentive to your skins needs. The atmosphere is always calming and she creates a space that allows you to determine the vibe that meets your needs. I'm truly grateful for her teaching me about my skin and being apart of my journey from girl to womanhood!! read more

BOOK WITH BRENDA IMMEDIATELY!!!! Do not hesitate, book that appt, you won't regret it! I have never gotten a professional facial or full body wax before, and I was feeling nervous about this being my first experience. I am so grateful to have found Brenda because she surpassed my expectations of the entire experience and debunked all the biases and fears I had. When I walked in, Brenda greeted me and was so kind and welcoming. She made sure she took the time to understand my goals and was even patient and understanding to the fact that I didn't exactly know my skin type or any sensitivity/reactivity problems. We started off with the facial and Brenda prioritized my comfortability throughout the entire process. She reminded me that she wanted to cater this appointment to my preference whether I would be more relaxed talking or quiet. I appreciated the thoughtfulness about centering my relaxation and comfort in the experience. I requested for us to talk so I could feel more comfortable. I found out that Brenda's goals and values have been towards women empowerment, and making individuals feel safe. I could tell that she is so passionate about what she does and her hands are truly magic. When we were done with the facial, she checked in about the full body wax service as I was hesitant and worried about the pain. Since Brenda was so thoughtful and intentional, I felt comfortable to move forward with the full body wax. Brenda was absolutely so encouraging and supportive! She would remind me to breathe and directed me when to breathe in to minimize pain. During the Brazilian wax portion, I was telling her how I felt shy and worried about the appearance of my body. Brenda made me feel so confident and during the process I felt really empowered and proud for challenging all the fears I had about this service. At the end of the appointment, Brenda ensured that I was satisfied and emphasized the importance of women and people of color advocating for their needs. I let her know how it was so easy to speak up for myself because of how intentional she was through this appointment. I think she gave me some confidence that I didn't know how to find. I didn't realize how healing Brenda's services were and for that I thank her so much for the joy and safety she provided me. read more

Brenda is amazing. She is professional, knowledgeable and kind. I had never had a facial before as I didn't think men even got facials. Very relaxing and I am happy with the results. I highly recommend. read more

My previous experience with waxing left me scared!!! I knew I wanted to begin to get bikini waxes again but fear would always linger...that is until I found Brenda! Her personal demeanor was so calming. For my first appointment I did a full bikini, my butt, and I treated myself to a facial! From start to finish Brenda was so professional and explained to me everything she was doing. She answered all of my questions and moved at my pace. The facial was also perfection!! Needless to say I have been back regularly, the pain is tolerable and the environment is peaceful and CLEAN!! Also please note that I am a black woman and I feel like a lot of places don't specialize or prioritize our care/health...NoT here. My existence as a black woman was taken into consideration which I love. read more

Brenda has the most healing hands & her joyful energy is contagious!! I've been going to her for the last few years. I highly recommend her waxing, facial, and massage services.

I had my first facial with the lovely and talented Brenda today! Her touch is so intuitive and her skills are amazing that my VERY sensitive skin did not react to her products and even extractions, which we know are a little painful, were done quickly! The biggest surprise was how great my skin looked! I'm used to a little blotchy redness the day of a facial. Everyone knows you don't get a facial right before an event because of the blotchiness! But I would confidently get a facial with Brenda the day of a wedding, Ted talk, acceptance speech, etc. She is still building out her space, conveniently located downtown. I can't wait to see it fully outfitted! read more

Brenda is amazing at what she does! Every time I see her I leave refreshed, relaxed, and rejuvenated. She listens, she cares, she makes me feel comfortable in my skin. Her customer experience is unforgettable, that's why I keep coming back! And those facial naps are to die for! I also love that she uses high-quality products on my face and body. I trust her with my skin and I come out looking like a brand new woman! You seriously have to treat yourself to one of Brenda's amazing services! read more

Truly an incredible experience from start to finish. Brenda is so kind, gentle, and really amazing at her skill. The facial went above and beyond expectations, the hand massage and mask on my arms was next level. I was sad when it ended because I was ready to pass out asleep. My skin felt SO clean and healthy, I struggle with hormonal acne/ very sensitive skin. Brenda was incredibly attentive to this and ensured to use the right products. Grateful to have found this spot! read more

Brenda has been my esthetician for my waxes for the past 2 years. I drive 45 minutes just to see her because she's that good! Thorough, patient, and her & her shop consistently bring the best vibe. 10/10 recommend booking with Fully Committed Esthetics! read more

Great experience every time I visit, I leave out feeling so refreshed and relaxed. The hot stone treatment is phenomenal and I have to say so are the facials. read more

I remember as a teenager people telling me how great my skin was. I didn't understand our appreciate it then. It wasn't until early adulthood that I started haven't breakouts. I would cover my skin in makeup and didn't know how to care for my skin. Coming to Brenda has been a game changer for my skin and I can safely say that at 37, I love my skin and embrace it's color texture and glow. The best thing about going to Brenda is that my facials last for months. My skin gets better over time! I just had a facial a week and a half ago and my skin is glowing more that the first day. If you have any reservations... Don't... she's the best. Kalé read more

I signed up for the membership and haven't looked back since (worth every penny). The owner is kind and informative I let her know what my skin struggles were and she came up with a plan for me. Has never come across pushy or trying to upset me; just honest and direct. I took a break from waxing for 2 years so needless to say I wasn't a little nervous; she was quick making it seamless and an overall enjoyable experience. Highly recommend her facials and hot stone massages. If you're looking to glow not only from the outside it the inside look no further. read more

Brenda does such a great job each time I go in for a service! From facials to waxes, I really feel comfort and relaxation. The place sets the tone as well, and it's very clean. She also gives great advice afterwards about the health of my skin and she even suggested some products to use that suits my skin well. Brenda is a sweetheart! read more

I got a back facial and a back wax. The back facial was literally one of the most relaxing things Ive ever had. I forgot where I was in the universe. For the wax she got every hair. Super nice natural transition to my arms. I'll be back. read more

Brenda is such an amazing esthetician! I received a back treatment from her and it was absolutely phenomenal.

The vibes inside her salon are amazing & just add to the overall experience. read more

I was looking for a black owned massage place and ended up finding this place for my birthday. Brenda was great, made me feel real comfortable and relaxed. The vibe inside of the building was really cute and relaxing with music and essential oils. The only thing I would say is the inside of the massage room was really cold but other than that it was a great experience. Can't wait to go back. read more

Being new to the area I spent some time looking and was referred to Brenda. This was my first time going to See her and won't be the last! My skin feels amazing and the whole facial was so relaxing and really great. Also Brenda is very professional and personable making the whole experience very comfortable. I definitely would recommend her. read more

I live an hour away, but I thought I'd try out Brenda's services one time to support a growing small business. But after my treatment, I know I'm going to be a repeat customer. I had the back treatment done and Brenda started with an AMAZING massage that worked out a lot of my knots. She exfoliated, took care of a monster extraction and moisturized my back. I left feeling relaxed and refreshed. Her space is not fully set up yet, but I can't wait to return and see what she does with it. read more

Saw Brenda for teeth whitening and the process was easy and effective! Plus she is lovely to be around. Definitely recommend her services to anyone in the neighborhood. read more

I'll start by saying I absolutely hate the amount of hair that's on my face. I used to always shave it until i met Brenda. She gave me her professional opinion on what the razors were doing to my skin and I put them down (pretty much) for good. She's been waxing me for years and though I've bounced around and tried other more permanent hair removal methods (with no success), I always end right back up on Brenda's table because honestly, she's the best as what she does. I always call her a hair removal freak because she makes sure that there isn't one single hair left before I get off of her table. Not only that, she's so bright and welcoming. She's very professional, her space is super calming and inviting, and I feel so at ease every time i hop on her table. Brenda is awesome and she's got a forever client in me. read more

brenda is the only person i will go to for my spa services, she is a genuinely kind and caring person and this translates to her services. i had a facial and i was actually so surprised and very pleased with how great my skin looked, i couldn't stop gazing at myself in my mirror on the drive home! thank you so much!! read more
