They cleanse first, with a very refreshing product that they also sell there. So, Hard wax means that There are no paper strips involved. The indigo colored wax Nina used with me, Literally dries after they let it set. The wax itself is also the strip! Genius. The wax I started with was eyebrows. Bonus: Your first wax is free! They offer points/rewards and have custom payment plans as well. 5 star service. Pristine, bright, relaxing environment, lovely, gorgeous.

I never have breakouts or any side effects from her waxing at all since I've been coming in to her. Her shop is always clean and cozy and feels very homey too. I really enjoy coming to Sarah for my waxes and I know you will to. She practices great cleanliness and sanitizes everything she uses which is a really big thing for me. Overall Sarah is the best and the wax she uses is high quality. Once you try waxing with Sarah you'll never need to look for another shop for your waxing needs.

I have seen Dafne on two occasions for two separate services. The first service was an Eyelash tint…read moreand lift. My right eye didn't take the lift as well as my left eye did but Dafne did not hesitate to reschedule me for a redo. As the weeks went on both sets of lashes settled to the same "height" and I no longer needed to keep my appointment. During the original appointment we talked about eyebrows and how I had an Ombre service done but how they're kind of faded now and how I wasn't happy with how thin they were. We talked about her eyebrow services and how I should grow my eyebrows out. So I did for 3 months. As California settles in for our 2nd lock down and the Salons/Spa's THIRD shutdown, I knew I had to try to get in to tame this circus. I hit up Dafne on Ig, she is super fast at responding, sent her pictures of my eyebrows and we scheduled an appointment. She cleaned up and reshaped my brows and tinted them. We decided to go a little thicker than normal and I am so glad we did. She brought me back to life. She will be my new go to. Her prices are right, her space is clean and her tint and lift products are CF and Vegan friendly. Plus I get my skin treatments and hair done all in the same vicinity, so it just works out well for me. Hopefully 3 weeks will go by fast and you all will be busier than ever! xo

On top of that, I booked for a full body wax that was not completed. Please make sure to read everything before booking! I booked last minute because I have been a loyal client for going onto 3 years now. Never been anywhere else. I had no idea it was going to take a pretty lengthy time to get a full body ... The Brazilian itself took 1 hour & a half because the wax kept breaking & she kept burning my skin. She kept moving up & down the temperature on the wax & wasnt confident in her pulls. She then did my legs, & cheeks, & there was no time for my upper torso & arms. Now the owner is sending me threatening me messages because I didn't pay the second half of the uncompleted service. Why would I do that! Our text messages also speak for themselves. This girl is crazy. I am NEVER returning back! The girl who did the wax was SO COOL but she needs to learn some boundaries on what areas to touch when trimming & waxing but it's the owner who makes this a complete nightmare. AVOID this place at ALL COST.
