Hadiyah is awesome. She's really professional and clearly knows her stuff. I'd never been into getting facials or any professional skin care treatment, but I had a terrible breakout after a trip abroad and my sister recommended I see Hadiyah. She worked her magic and my skin felt great. I recently went last week for the second time and had a super positive experience again. She works evening weeknights which is awesome for people who are busy during the day, and her services are really friendly for black and brown folks! Check her out if you're in need of premium skin care services!! read more

I found Hadiyah on Twitter awhile ago and got a facial with her today as a Christmas present. I got the deluxe glow customized facial. The treatment was really relaxing and thorough. Hadiyah gave me great product recommendations and was super friendly and chill. She also has great music-I was so relaxed I fell asleep for a little while. Can't wait for my next treatment. read more

I got a facial from Hadiyah back in December before she had a yelp so I thought I'd leave a review here! I got great results from my treatment even though I hadn't been keeping up with my skin care routine that well prior to seeing her and had a bunch of stress acne, etc. She's so nice and lets you know what every product does. I will definitely be seeing her regularly once I move back to the bay! read more

Honestly, if you live in the Bay Area and need an esthetician, you need to see Hadiyah ASAP. I came in a few days ago for a facial and it was everything! Her studio has a very welcoming vibe and she makes you feel comfortable and let's you know everything she will be doing throughout the facial and what products she is using. While there is music playing in the background, it's not loud at all and is relaxing. I highly recommend going to Hadiyah for facial as well as the other services she provides. Thank you so much, Hadiyah for making my first facial very comfortable and for making my skin healthier. Can't wait to book my next appointment! read more

I saw Hadiyah recently for a couple waxing services, and was instantly impressed with her professionalism and attention to detail. Unlike some estheticians I've booked in the past, she really took her time and even offered tips on exfoliating. On top of that, I love how she's working on making self-care more inclusive and accessible: not only is Fairy Glow Mother open when most spas/salons are closed, but Hadiyah specializes in providing services to multicultural and transgender clients. The true cherry on top, though, is her excellent taste in music (she shares her Spotify playlist with all clients)! read more

One week after my visit and my skin has made amazing progress. Hadiyah throughly looked through my skincare routine and let me know what I was doing right and where I could improve. I purchased the recommended items and I'm skin has been glowing and clearing up. I would highly suggest visiting Hadiyah if you're looking to improve your skin read more

Love, love, love everything about my experience here at the Fairy Glow Mother. Very clean space, very professional service, and fairly quick from start to finish. When you first walk in the space is very welcoming and relaxing. There's great mood music going which already makes you feel less tense, especially anticipating a Brazilian. She has everything very clean and i experienced relatively little pain. I felt EXTRA prepared for my upcoming birthday trip to Cabo! I also got my armpits waxed and it was my first time. Quick and not as painful as I thought it would be. I would absolutely recommend this Salon to anyone seeking a professional experience and want to avoid any of the big chain salons. I will definitely be rebooking for future services THANKS AGAIN for making me feel so comfortable. read more

Hadiyah is the best! She is extremely warm and welcoming while remaining professional and extremely knowledgeable. This was my first time ever having a facial, and she made me feel very comfortable and explained everything she was going to do. It goes without saying, my skin is already GLOWING (hence her business name!) and I'm seeing great improvements after just one appointment. She reserves weekend and evening appointments for members only, so I went ahead and signed up for her membership! If you're looking for monthly facials and can only do nights or weekends like me, sign up for her membership! It's affordable and you get discounts on products! Don't sleep on it, do it before she's too booked up! read more

I had my first-ever sugaring experience with Hadiyah and she was wonderful and professional! She is so knowledgeable about the entire process. Her product recommendations were life changing. I would trust this woman with my life! read more

After two sessions and coming up on my third, I can confidently say I will continue to be a part of the Glow Gang. After some medical issues caused my face to take on a life of its own, Hadiyah got this mug all the way together. Very relaxing atmostphere and although I try not to fall asleep, those magical hands do it every time. I'd definitely recommend giving this female business a try. read more

I've been here a few times & every time I leave, my skin feels super smooth & I am more informed about my skin & what products would work for my skin type. As a brown skinned black woman, I am very apprehensive about going to ppl for skin care because I've had bad experiences in the past & most skin care caters to lighter tones so finding Hadiyah has been heaven sent for me. She is very sweet, caring, personable, and really knows skincare. She also plays GREAT music to listen to during treatment :) ! read more

I went in for a facial w/ extractions during my bday week in early May and really loved my experience. The vibe and music was great as was Hadiyah's service. She gave great advice/tips to improve my skin and since my facial and implementing some changes to my routine my skin has improved greatly. I will definitely return and hope to make facials a part of my self-care routine. When I do, FGM will be the place! read more

I was lucky enough to get a summer time fine appointment which included a complete Brazilian wax, eyebrow, lip and underarms wax! Plus an incredible custom facial all for 135. To start, it was my first time getting waxed and Hadiyah was so thoughtful in her approach. She checked in after every pull even towards the end. The wax used was the most comfortable I've ever felt on my brows and in general. I can't wait for the studio to be open again cause I am now a wax fan and want nobody else to do it. Now the facial !! I might be wrong but I assume the facial I got was shorter or not as extensive because it was part of this incredible bundle but even so!! It did wonders on my face. She really took extra time and attention to my very problematic areas and clearly is an expert because by the next day my skin was truly GLOWING and dewy (I have dry skin) and my acne scars were visibly softer and less prominent. All this from a bundled special and first time meet. I already booked another custom facial I'm so excited to be able to continue seeing and working on my skin with thee fairy flow mother! Also the music is on point and a good distraction from the less than comfortable wax moments! read more

Don't hesitate, just book the appointment! Hadiyah is very knowledgeable and walks you through every step. She told me exactly what product she was using and why she is using it. Hadiyah is really kind and did a great facial on me. Over a week after and my skin stills feel amazing. read more

Had a great experience with Fairy Glow Mother; did a hydrating facial and waxing (which was, by waxing standards, pretty painless). Got some super helpful product recommendations, and will be back for for a follow-up in 4-6 weeks. (Music was fire too!) read more

By some fortunate blessing, I found Hadiyah through Twitter and followed her, taking in her skincare advice for months before actually booking an appointment. I finally booked and had a wonderful experience - as a Black woman it was dope to actually have a more in-depth conversation with a Black female esthetician. From the initial consultation when we reviewed my skincare routine to the facial itself to the amazing skin analysis follow up that included a large variety of product recommendations, the whole experience was wonderful. And as an added bonus, her playlist during the facial was perfect. As someone who has had a less than positive experience with my dermatologist, it was great to actually engage with someone who seemed passionate about skincare and my skin needs. I highly, highly recommend you check her out! read more

FGM is the best! I've seen her thrice now for a Brazilian. I was definitely nervous coming in for my first appointment but she was very reassuring and made the whole session comfortable. I plan on trying the facials next time. She's very personable, knowledgeable, and gives good advice in person and on her IG. suite - 5/5 clean/organized, smells good (love the music!) service - 5/5 takes her time/thorough making an appointment - 5/5 very easy/convenient and if you do have any questions or concerns before your session it's also easy to contact her and get answers. read more

What an amazing experience I had with Hadiyah! I went in to get the Full Meal from her during the middle of November which included: a Brazillian, lip, eyebrow, and underarm wax, and an Essential Glow Facial. The date I booked was a booking error and she apologized promptly, rebooked me for the next available date she had and took $25 off my service. She was so nice and welcoming, and made me feel very comfortable. Very easy to talk to and the music she had playing in the background was *chef kiss* perfection! So relaxing and definitely looked up her playlist after. She was so gentle during the waxed and during the facial as well. She let me know what she was doing, talked to my about my skin care routine and asked my concerns with my skin. After she was done she sent me a customized skin care plan with my skin type, and new products she suggested for each step of my routine, a cheap suggestion, moderate priced one, and a more expensive suggestion. I just got all of the products she suggested in bold from my skin care plan and I'm so excited to see my skin glow! Will definitely be going back to Hadiyah! read more

I have been following Hadiyah on twitter for awhile and for my birthday I decided to treat myself for the essential glow facial and it was the best! I felt so relaxed and Hadiyah explained every product she was using on my face and why. She really is super knowledgeable and you can tell she loves what she does. I love how she gave me my own skincare plan for my skin type and gives you more information on how to use products. She's really great and I am so happy to have found her. I get a lot of compliments on my skin with some of the products I have gotten from her. 10/10 recommend:) read more

I have had problems with my skin forever. With the pandemic and wearing a masks my face was very dry. I looked on Yelp for a esthetician and found Fairy Glow Mother. Hadiyah is very professional and knowledgeable. I will be returning to her for services. read more

To say that Hadiyah is amazing would be an understatement. And, to simply say she's talented would not do her justice. Hadiyah is by far one of the most knowledgeable, meticulous, and welcoming skin care professionals I've had the pleasure of meeting. Whether you're meeting with her for a virtual appointment; or meeting in person, Hadiyah's aura is golden. Her studio has an unmatched energy. From the moment you walk into the door, to the moment you begin and complete your service, you feel a sense of tranquility. She's very thorough during your appointment and let's you know exactly what it is she's doing and what to expect. She's also very graceful when handling extractions. My skin has never been more smooth & supple. You can see she wholeheartedly put a lot of time, thought and dedication into everything she presents and provides to you. I am very thankful I found her as she is TRULY, The Fairy Glow Mother. I can't wait for my next appointment! Thank you, Hadiyah! read more

Fantastic service, both facial and skin care consultation. Super clean and sanitized experience. She listened to my skin care concerns and made excellent suggestions and referrals. My skin felt so soft and clean afterwards. It was a relaxing and rejuvenating experience. Highly recommended. read more

I'm going to start off by saying I love the place and the atmosphere, it is so calming and well maintained. Overall I loved the experience of getting a facial and Hadiyah was super nice as well. However, it definitely was not what I was expecting. I was expecting to walk out feeling like I learned something new. I felt as if there was more info I could have learned. If you plan on going here opt for the more expensive beginner facial because I felt as if the knowledge shared was based on how much you are paying from what I understood. I had questions written down but only got half-answers, as well as barely any product recommendations. I am not sure if it was because Hadiyah was super tired (which she disclosed due to having multiple appointments). I felt as if she was rushed as well throughout my experience because she was running behind. The facial itself was relaxing, enjoyed the extractions and how she explained everything that she was doing. She even provided a new mask for when the treatment was over! On the way out I felt super pushed into purchasing two products which I did not felt I needed but went ahead anyway (one was from her own brand, and the other was not), which I do not know how to incorporate into my routine because when I asked this question she answered in a way I quite did not understand. I felt as if she could have answered my product questions better especially because my main concern was around hyperpigmentation. I was planning to become a member pending my first experience but I feel as if my appointments will be the same following, so unfortunately I will not. But I did enjoy my facial experience and Hadiyah is very nice! I just felt as if my experience was not as great as it could have been given my questions got answered and I understood my skin more. The experience could have been better, but overall nice studio and very nice owner!! read more

A MUST for all your needs! I got my first snatch & grab wax by her and it was perfect! Her studio is such a vibe aesthetically and she is very personable which is extremely comforting. She also gave me post-wax tips which was helped me stay smooth and ingrown-free!Have recommended her and will continue to go back for my up-keeping! You won't regret it. Also you can follow her on social media if you would like to learn more about her! @fairyglowmother read more

Recently visited Hadiyah, and I have to say--one of the smoothest and most comfortable services I've ever had. She is a consummate professional and she keeps a very clean workspace. I advise anyone in the area to check her out for quick and top-notch services. I will return. read more

After only a month after only one appointment, I have seen results already. Hadiyah is very dedicated to helping you reach your skincare goals. During the customized facial, she makes you feel comfortable and she explains everything she is doing. The facial was 100% worth it and I would recommend it to anyone seeking to learn more about your skin. After the facial, she sends you a customized skin care plan, with different products varying different price points. If it's your first time booking an esthetician, Hadiyah is the best to go to. read more

Hadiyah is amazing!! I've came in for two facials already and I'm set with her being my esthetician. Hadiyah is very informative with any questions you may have and makes you feel super comfortable and relaxed. I love that she lets me know she is available by text or email in case I have any questions. My skin has cleared up so much more after visiting her. I look forward to being a regular customer. Keep up the great work Hadiyah!! read more

Hadiyah is very good at what she does. When I first met her she was so nice and understanding. Her space was so nice comfortable and very clean. The facial felt amazing especially the facial cleansing and massage part. My skin was dehydrated before the facial but after my skin was glowing and hydrated. After the appointment Hadiyah gives you a helpful skin regimen which is a bonus. And she also answers every question and concern. read more

This was my first time ever going an esthetician and my first time receiving a facial. I got the Essential Glow Customized Facial because it was my first time & her website said initial skin analysis which was what I needed I messed up my skin because I didn't know what it wanted/needed. My face was so bad, not even make up could save it, foundation would emphasize my textured skin & break apart from the oils. No matter what I did, my face was constantly breaking out or just reacting to something. Everything I put on it had a sting but at the same time it felt like I had a dry crusty layer on my face that cause no type of hydration to be absorbed but was too damaged/sensitive to be exfoliated at home. So I decided to go to Hadiyah, especially after seeing her stuff on Twitter, which I've been following for a while. & oh my god was the experience amazing. I almost fell asleep multiple times during the session. & my skin felt amazing afterwards, we both were kind of disappointed we didn't take before & after pictures. My skin instantly looked better, more hydrated & felt softer. Even a week after, my skin was still having the glowing effects. I ended up buying the recommended products over the next couple of days & my skin has never been better. Still some acne, but no more stinging or dry crusty layer. I haven't tried putting make up on yet, mostly because I don't want to! I like how my skin is reacting to everything. I love how soft my face feels when I'm washing my face. I can't wait to see her again :) read more

Highly recommend coming here! Hadiyah gives amazing facials, thorough consultations, and has a great playlist. This is my third time coming to Fairy Glow Mother, and each time my face significantly improves in appearance. Her facials are good investments because she does more than slather on a mask. She'll walk you through the process and, after you're done, she'll give you great recommendations for products. I haven't tried her waxes, but I've heard great results from her. read more

I've been with Hadiyah for about 3 months now, I've done various facials (essential glow, acne, and detox) and after every appointment my texture has been drastically improved. She takes care to assure that every experience is customized to your skin with *purpose* beyond relaxation (although it's mega relaxing too!). I've also done two smooth criminal Brazilians and let me just say, if you are scared/worried about your first wax just get down to Fairy Glow Mother and take my word that it will be a great experience! Her playlist is so good and imparts such a pleasant vibe I've played it in the small business I manage. The studio itself is clean and comfortable, near tons of food and shopping so you can make a full relaxing treat yo self evening out of it. Hadiyah is also super responsive and helpful if you have any questions after you've left. She's very transparent about her own pricing and most importantly, the price of products in your day-to-day routine. Girl has saved me some money! I'm about to start a chemical peel series and will update with before and after pics, I just know they're about to be fire. Thanks Fairy Glow Mother! read more
