My friend was visiting from out of town and had made an appointment at the Wax Brow Bar. She said…read morethey did her brows when she used to live here. I went with her and was very impressed. The place is on 5th street in San Rafael in the two story building above the Propaganda Museum and next to the Mission Church. It's on the second floor down the hallway. This place is a family business of sisters Alexis,Taylor, and Madeline. My friend had brow dye, brow wax, tweeze and trim done for a flawless natural look. It was so impressive I had my eyebrows waxed too. They used a blue back dye on my friend's brows that was a perfect match to her hair and skin. Her whole process took about thirty minutes. My brow waxing was $30. If you want a modern look and want the best in the business- this is your place. Everything was clean and products used were top notch. This is a wonderful little salon.

They always made my skin look okay, but never enough to want to go back to the same person. I went to Melanie for the first time about 8 years ago. I was immediately hooked! She looked at my skin and knew instantly what was needed. She uses incredible products and is extremely gentle, and I saw a noticeable difference in my skin after my very first visit. After all these years, my skin still looks incredibly healthy, and I get tons of compliments. I know it's because of Melanie. Not only does my skin look and feel great, but after every treatment, I feel so relaxed and rejuvenated. It also doesn't hurt that Melanie is such a warm and caring person. I just love her and highly recommend her services! Lynn W., Corte Madera"

I checked several places online, but most didn't have any availability. Smooth Operations happened to have one appointment left, so I booked it. When I arrived, I noticed how open the space was and was greeted by Libby, who apologized for the ongoing construction going on. Honestly, it wasn't a big deal at all, but I really appreciated how thoughtful and considerate she was. Libby was incredibly kind, sweet, and so easy to talk to, which made the whole experience even more enjoyable. The service was excellent, and Libby did a fantastic job on my eyebrows.

Hannah is just... the coolest. But more than that, she is the holy grail of what I look for in a stylist (as a long-time beauty industry nerd). She is the EXACT thing you want... a combination of METICULOUS and utterly artistic and creative. That's just something you don't find a lot. Both qualities have to be innate, they can't be taught. On my last visit, I had her chop off all my previously thermally straightened ends to just have ONLY my natural texture. The thing is... I'm a long hair girlie. Like... really long. I love my long hair and have been quite identified with it for a long time. But I was ready to let go of like, a good 8" and the beautiful cut she did... didn't even make me flinch at the end. I am just enjoying how great it is now. And for something as scary as losing a lot of length... that's saying a lot.
