I wasn't too impressed with the service I received. I probably would've gone even lower in my rating, but I liked the technician and the receptionist. I went in there before a big trip and got a full leg and bikini wax. My hair was definitely long enough on my lower leg, and I asked the question if it was long enough on my upper leg and was told it was fine. The result was not great. It felt like I had stubble after the service... As if I had shaved recently, which I intentionally has not shaving in two months to make sure the hair was long enough. Both the technician and the receptionist felt the patches on my leg and agreed with me. We contacted the owner who said that sometimes hair remains on the leg even after a waxing. This might be true, but it would've been good to have known that upfront. And the top leg hair was definitely not long enough and I think that was the issue there, but I should've been told. It would've been a less expensive and less painful treatment. The owner said there was nothing she could do, but she offered a 15% discount on my next visit - she never took down my information or even gave me her name or anything so I know it was basically a bogus offer. And unfortunately, I won't be going back. read more

After moving to Baltimore I was very skeptical about trying a new wax place (as most of us are). After months of avoiding the inevitable, I stumbled across one of the only wax studios that still performs sugar waxing. I have been getting sugar waxing for 5 years prior to moving and Mittal is the best! She is so quick and her process is pain free. She is traditionally and professionally trained and it shows in her skill and customer service. I have never felt so comfortable with someone, as I have extremely thick hair. I am usually surrounded by comments making me feel uncomfortable and strange for my hair type. Hot Wax is a clean and beautiful atmosphere with an amazing Wax Specialist. Be sure to book Mittal for your next wax! read more

Fantastic place for all you skin care needs! Everyone is so wonderful, but Becky is fantastic! I highly recommend their services! I am officially a repeat offender!!!!!! They have gotten me through a pinch and I came back and the service was still just as great! read more

I had a very great waxing experience here with Mittal. She made me feel comfortable through the excruciating post quarantine wax lol. The place is nice and pretty welcoming. They are also taking awesome precautions during the current climate. They're very responsive and make sure that you get what you need! Can't wait for my next service with them! read more

great customer service and great lash lift/tint results!! I recommend Jen, she was very knowledgeable and professional !

If you are looking for threading or any skin care services I highly recommend seeing Mittal at HotWax! So happy with the results of just one chemical peel, sun damage is already fading and fine lines are improving. I highly recommend you schedule an appointment today! read more

Booked an appointment same day based on the reviews. Loooved this waxing experience. I have very sensitive skin so I usually shy away from wax and lean toward sugaring but the wax I got here was the most gentle wax I've ever had (ask about the white wax)! Robin was FAST and very talkative. read more

I had a Brazilian today with Robin and she was great. I've been getting waxed for years so I know what to expect but she was friendly and talked through the process (mainly to take my mind off being waxed lol). It was practically painless and no patches left behind. I'll definitely be back. read more

Melissa was great!! Personable, friendly, funny and puts you at ease. I've been getting Brazilians a long time and it's never easy when you have to find a new person and I'm so lucky I found her!! read more

I got a Brazilian wax from Lindsey today and she was awesome! She walked me through the process and helped me breathe through some of the tough parts. Honestly it didn't hurt that much, less than I remember from past times... it had been a while lol. I was left feeling totally smooth and clean and am excited to show off my new look for my anniversary! Thank you Lindsey! See you soon!! read more

I can't say enough wonderful things about Rebecca and HotWax!!! She makes you feel so comfortable and at ease. I am so glad I decided to get my services done with her. I got both a signature facial and a Brazilian wax done by her. The facial was so divine and relaxing. My skin has become so much smoother and clearer just from one session! She uses Dermalogica products and I felt like she did such a wonderful job in choosing the best products/masks that were best suited for my skin type. She also did extractions for me too since my skin has been really congested and hormonal lately. Now to the Brazilian! So I have been to many places in Cali along with other waxing places in Bmore such as Charm City Skin, but man oh man, I literally had the most painless wax ever with Rebecca. She used a combo of hard and regular wax on me and is extremely thorough and meticulous. I could not recommend her enough if you are trying to find a good esthetician to get a Brazilian/waxing services with. You will be in good hands! Although I have now moved to Anne Arundel County, I will still continue drive down to Hampden to see her! I am so happy I found my new Esthetican. I will not go to any one else now! Thank you so much Hotwax! :D read more

Let's face it....no one wakes up in the morning thinking, "Yes! Today I'm getting waxed! Woot woot!" But, when you get waxed by Becky, you're kind of close to that sentiment. She is the ultimate professional and does the quickest (but also cleanest) Brazilian waxes I've experienced. She is so easy to talk to that you almost feel like you're hanging out and catching up with a girlfriend. Becky does amazing facials, too. She really knows what she is talking about and doesn't push products on you to purchase. I would highly recommend Hot Wax Baltimore to anyone in need of any skin care service. read more

Recently moved to Baltimore, so I've been on the search for a good wax place out here... I came across HotWax on yelp, and their good reviews persuaded me to give them a try.. Very easy to book appointments online. Arrived and was promptly escorted to the room.. I got a Brazilian from Lindsey and she was great! Very friendly, sweet, and skilled.. she was quick and thorough. She was also helpful in recommending products and services to consider in the future to improve my skin. I will definitely be going back to HotWax from now on, and requesting Lindsey read more

Absolutely enjoyed Rebecca's service! I went in for a basic facial and I swear I looked 10 years younger. She explains everything she is doing and gives you great tips on how to keep your skin looking amazing. She talks about your skin and recommends what works for you! She really knows what she is doing and makes it easy to ask questions and get skin advice. She knows her products very well. The atmosphere is very relaxing, peaceful and an overall good experience. I personally can't wait to go back for my next set of skin care services. Highly recommend Rebecca for her experience and service read more

I loved this place! Katie did my brazilian and she was a delight the entire time. She was a perfectionist and let me know when the painful parts were coming. She was very attentive and I'd recommend this place to anyone wanting a wax read more

Mittal gave me the best Brazilian of my life, I can't recommend her highly enough! Clean and professional atmosphere as well as being on time and fast. 10/10 will be back read more

Lindsay is the best!! I will follow her anywhere ‍ I trust her with all my waxing needs

Mittal was amazing. I got a Brazilian from her (my first) and it barely hurt. She made the experience so easy. Will 100% be going back to her!! read more

I got a wax with Amanda and loved her!! I'd definitely go back. The only part that's questionable is that you lay on a plastic feeling sheet that's wiped down rather than a new clean sheet - it made my skin get super sweaty and gross, and though it was Clorox wiped down, I'm not convinced how thoroughly / how sanitary it is. She recommended some product which I bought and so far am happy with. Nice and clean in the lobby. Apparently they used to do a student discount, but don't in the summer because people aren't in school? Which is funny because I'm only in Baltimore for summer courses. So that was a bummer, but I guess you're also not allowed to get bummed about not getting a discount ha! read more

Mitral did an excellent job of both threading my brows and waxing under my arms. My skin is very sensitive yet it was almost painless, she was so good. Plus they have good-quality products for post-wax skin and skin care in general. I will go there again. read more

Moved to Baltimore a year ago and have been going to Brittany H for the past year. She has been the best for every type of wax I have gotten. Her eyebrow waxes are exceptional as well - she can keep it natural looking, while cleaning up your brows. She is incredibly friendly and will make you feel comfortable right away. read more

Great service, and a wonderfully welcoming energy. Robin was professional, efficient, humble and hilarious with some of her life perspectives on people, life and politics. I kind of fibbed to Robin, and told her that thid was my first Manzilian (Brazilian) wax, and she was so surprised at how calm and at ease I was Once she was done, she was singing my praises of how easy it was to do my waxing. Then I told her, that I've done this before and wanted to see how she'd do. Her eyes opened wide and she said "I knew it!" Robin is a good sport, and I am very thankful that I got her for my waxing. And the ocean sound, playing in the background was great too. I will definitely come back to Hot Wax again, and book Robin. Highly recommend read more

I came to Rebecca for my first facial back in January, and again last month. I have received both the Signature Facial and Express Facial- and strongly recommend either! Between her exemplary service and knowledge of the Dermalogica products, my face has never looked better. I was struggling with acne, and am so pleased with the way I look after becoming a regular at HotWax. Rebecca also waxes my eyebrows- and again, I can't sing her praises enough! I have thick eyebrows, and have never been completely satisfied with the way other people have shaped them (but I HATE tweezing, so doing it myself was never an option). The pain is minimal, the shape is great, and her waxing skills are so on point that the dreaded tweezers (seriously, I hate them) are hardly, if at all, needed afterwards. The setting is clean and peaceful. I leave feeling pampered, relaxed, and beautiful! Overall- 5 star rating for great prices, service, location and setting! read more

As always, Mittal was quick and effective about my wax and eye brow threading. I would recommend her to everyone!

This is my very first time doing wax and I was kinda afarid of it...so I make an appointment for armpit and lower arm to see how it goes. The environment is comfortable, bright and clean. Britteny is friendly and professional at the job - the procedure is fast, the wax smells really good (rose scene) and also not hurtful! I am definitely going back for more waxing and other services they have there :-) read more

I had a facial by Amanda and it was the absolute best facial of my life! She was knowledgeable, gentle and efficient. My skin looked radiant and felt baby soft! I swear she took 10 years off my face, I will definitely be going back! read more

Wow... Mittal is so quick and efficient! I've been getting waxed on and off at other places for about a year and it's always so painful I dread it... BUT not now! I'm not sure what she does differently but it's quick and painless comparing to before. She is super kind and makes you feel at home. All of the staff was very kind, I was way early and they continued to check on me and make sure I was comfortable waiting. I will definitely be returning and won't put it off like before! read more

I got a Brazilian and Olivia did a fantastic job! So professional, so nice, and a great conversationalist. The waxing was quick and nearly painless. I will definitely be coming back here for more of Olivia's work. Thanks so much! read more

Today was my first time at Hot Wax and my first time getting a lash tint and lift... Mittal made it a breeze and I absolutely LOVE how they turned out!!! I even ended up getting brow threading and tinting, which I never thought I'd do (I am reallllly picky about my brows) and my brows look fantastic!! Thank you for a great experience, I will be back :) read more

Hotwax - Skin Care Near Me - Baltimore, Maryland

First if all, it's open on Sunday! This is not your usual cheap nail salon that's open on Sundays, either! Mittal was relatively quick and lighthearted about my messy brows and bikini area. I loved her!i had facial waxing done and then she quickly threaded the smaller and more stubborn hairs which was a great combo for those that prefer wax to thread but also get small strays that the wax never gets. The place is small, bright, and clean and the only minor complaint I have is that when you're lying on your back and staring at the ceiling the overhead lights are really harsh. That said, I'll definitely be back! read more

I just visited for the first time and Mittal was great! She is very kind and made it a quick and easy appointment for me.

Robin was fantastic. A Brazilian wax is not fun but she made it so much better. I drive 2.5 hours just to get my wax done here. Robin is my go to. read more

It's been some time since I had my brows waxed, they were a bit unruly when Melissa worked her magic & tamed them! No redness (sensitive skin) or pain. Will be returning to try other services! read more

Brazilian was rushed. Wax to hot. Esthetician wasn't very interactive at all. No pressure was applied after pulling strip. I'm an licensed esthetician myself and would never come back here again unless I get serviced my someone else. Results weren't what I expected either. I had stubble a couple hours later. It's like I shaved and never had a wax. read more

I love Rebecca she is awesome. Very knowledgeable and has always made me feel very comfortable. Booking is very easy, and convenient. The new shop is beautiful. Super clean and professional. Also they have been super helpful the few times I have had to change an appointment time. Highly recommend this place. read more

I got my first ever Brazilian with Olivia and she made what could be a scary experience a very comfortable and relaxed one. I don't like to normally talk at waxing appts, but she made everything super easy and made me feel safe. Also my first time at HotWax, super clean in there. read more

I love this place! I travel from Westminster to Hampden every two weeks because of how wonderful the service is here. The owner, Rebecca, has taken years off of my face with her amazing advice on my skin care. I have also seen Robyn and Mittal. Both of whom are superb. I can't say enough good things about Hotwax! read more

5 stars for the all-star Robin! Robin is an incredible esthetician and it shows in her services. She was friendly, FUN, very sweet and an absolute professional. I always get a little nervous trying out new spa places because it can be hit or miss but this visit was amazing! I can't wait to go back and keep up with my lashes. Robin got me super duper prettified for my vacation. Thank you so much! read more

Robin for the win! It was my first time at HotWax--I tried a couple of their services and I must say that Robin is, hands down, the best esthetician I've ever had. She's really great at what she does and definitely takes away any awkwardness. Robin has years of experience and definitely gave me some great skin recommendations that I know I can trust. Overall, it was also my least painful session ever. She did a really great job and I'll definitely keep going back. Totally a fair price too. read more

Had my first Brazilian here...can't say I wasn't nervous since I have Spanish hair and have been shaving for over a decade. Rebecca made me feel comfortable and she promised if I gave it at least 3 tries that I wouldn't ever go back to shaving. She was done within 20 minutes and i loved the results. The results lasted for a lot longer than I anticipated. I waited a little over 3 weeks until I came back and this time I had an appointment with Robin..Rebecca was right. It wasn't half as painful (still super manageable) and Robin talked through the whole thing keeping my mind at ease. I simply loved Robins personality and humor! She was awesome in her work, in the way she explained everything and was very focused despite the fact that she had me laughing on the table. I already made my third appointment with her. I'm glad I did my research on this place. The reviews have been spot on. read more
