She has an incredible eye for shaping eyebrows in a way that flatters your face, and she always gets it just right.

If you are looking for someone who is talented, consistent, and trustworthy, Mariya is the one. Highly recommend.

10/10 Recommend for all your sugaring needs!…read more It was my first time getting sugared and my first Brazilian done by someone else so I was quite nervous but Sharnay did such a good job making the process as quick and comfortable as possible. I wanted to get sugared for a while now and finally decided to contact Sharnay after looking at other Yelp reviews. She was able to fit me in. She is located in the building across from Kaiser Hospital. Her space is upstairs which was easy to find with her very clear directions I received after booking and the signs presented near the door. There is also plenty of street parking across the street near McKinley HS. When I first walked in, I noticed the room was decorated with plants and crystals-- which is just my style. The room for the sugaring was clean and wipes were provided. The process was a lot shorter than I was expecting, around 15-20 minutes for everything GONE! It was also a lot less painful than regular waxing at home. Will be going back for my 7 week maintenance!

Sharnay was awesome from the moment I contacted her until I left her studio! She was prompt and…read moreprofessional the whole way. She responded to me quickly and was able to accommodate me in her schedule the same day. Easy location to find, only issue I had was the parking I missed the spot fast and had to circle around the building. You'd have to be lucky to get out the driveway onto traffic and in a busy intersection to circle around. Anyways, when I got in side the studio Sharnay made me feel comfortable and relaxed. This was my first time sugaring and threading! She was awesome! Kept checking in on me if I'm doing okay, and she was fast. I'd definitely recommend her to anyone that wants to make the switch to a natural alternative for hair removal. Mahalo Sharnay! I'll definitely be back for more

I don't usually write reviews, but my experience with Wax & Sugar Honolulu -- and especially with…read moreMadoka, the owner - absolutely warrants one. I've been a returning customer for years, even if my hectic schedule as a civil servant kept me away longer than I ever wanted. There's a reason she stays booked: she's genuinely the best. Her knowledge, attention to detail, and the level of care she puts into every customized treatment are unmatched. She doesn't just provide a service -- she creates an experience where you feel understood, comfortable, and taken care of. Recently, I returned out of necessity because my teenage son had his first waxing experience elsewhere, and it was a terrible one - on his birthday too:(( I needed someone I could trust completely, and I knew there was no one better than Madoka...She went out of her way to make sure he felt safe, respected, and reassured. Her calm presence and expertise turned what could have become a long-lasting fear into a positive, empowering experience for him. Madoka truly sets the standard for professionalism and genuine care. I am beyond grateful for her, and I won't be going anywhere else again. If you want someone who is knowledgeable, kind, and consistently exceptional, this is the place. Schedule early bc she gets booked fast! Mahalo nui loa!

I'd follow Madoka anywhere! I only had her once at the Waxing Company but I loved the way she did…read moremy brows so much that I was ready to book with her again! When I found out she wasn't there anymore, I legit did an internal sob T___T but someone on Yelp informed me that she opened up her own waxing business so I hurriedly went on her website and booked an appointment with her! The appointment process is really simple. She can even accommodate to your schedule if there's nothing open to your liking (amazing customer service right there) or she can inform you of a cancellation if you let her know. The place is relatively easy to find: just input the address on Google Maps and once you approach the building, you turn right into the lot and VOILA, you have arrived. Park only in the stalls reserved for Salon 2A I believe? The other stalls are for the dentist, HOWEVER you are allowed to park in their stalls after business hours (Contact Madoka to confirm their hours) Her business is up the stairs, to the left. It's very spacious and well lit. You get offered Peach Tea while you get checked in and then it's time for Madoka to work her magic. She takes her time to make sure your brows are literally on fleek and checks with you to make sure you love them. It's always a wonderful experience threading with her P.S TJ from the Waxing Company has her own business too and she shares the space with Madoka!

I sat in the chair and she immediately started without really checking in. Mind you, my eyebrows are naturally very thick. As she was working, I kept thinking something felt off because it was way more sensitive than usual. When she finally showed me the result, my eyebrows were extremely thin. I was completely shocked and disappointed because I've never had my brows this thin, and I'm about to go on a trip. When I got up to pay, she asked if it was cash or card, and while I was in the middle of paying, she walked out. The vibes were off from the very beginning. I asked her how long she'd been doing brows and she said only about a year. I won't be coming back. I feel insecure and sad that I now have to grow my brows out for another six months. I really hope she sees this review. I forgot to get her name.

I booked appointments with Jenny for myself, my mom, and my grandma, and we all had an amazing…read moreexperience! My grandma received the Omakase Facial, something she had wanted to try for a long time. My mom had full-face sugaring and threading, and I had full-face sugaring and threading along with a brow lamination. None of us had experienced these treatments before, so we weren't sure what to expect. From start to finish, Jenny was incredibly knowledgeable, professional, and welcoming. She thoroughly explained how to prepare our skin beforehand and made us feel comfortable throughout each treatment. My grandma, who is not easily impressed, was pleased with the results of her facial. My mom couldn't stop talking about how soft and smooth her skin felt after the sugaring and threading. As for me, it was my first time getting a brow lamination, and Jenny did an amazing job shaping and evening out my brows while giving my entire face a clean, polished look. Because I have extremely sensitive skin, I was a little nervous about having a reaction to the lamination treatment, but everything went perfectly. I also really appreciate that Jenny carefully selects products she personally uses and trusts, choosing only those that meet high international quality standards. What truly stood out was her level of care. She even followed up the next day to check on how each of our skin was doing after our treatments. That personal touch meant so much and speaks volumes about how dedicated she is to her clients. I highly recommend Jenny to anyone considering a facial, sugaring, threading, brow lamination, or any of the other services she offers. Her expertise, attention to detail, and genuine care made this a wonderful experience for all three of us.

Jenny by far is THE person that I can trust when doing my korean lash lift. Let me tell you, Long…read morestory short. I had my first korean lash lift done in Vegas. Bruh, my eyes were burning, the chemical/perm solution smelled horrible. The technician told me that it has a "banana" scent to mask the smell of the chemical perm. I was given a fan supposedly to air out the lash lift. Oh hell, I used it to fan my nose because I started getting nauseous. On top of that, the technician would leave the room and come back every 10 mins just to reapply the solution. I could've had an allergic reaction within 30 seconds! Never again. Anyways, Jenny buys her lash products straight from KOREA and only in Korea. She showed me them products. Being that I buy korean products myself, they're authentic. She had proper training and is very knowledgeable. Did I smell any strong "banana" chemical scent , did my eyes burn or get nauseous ....NOT AT ALL! If I hadn't come across her, I would've had to travel to Korea to get them lash lifts to see how it's actually done. Thanks Jenny for a positive experience. Don't think twice about booking an appointment. Just book it.
