This salon is my third attempt at a male Brazilian in Tampa Bay, and it's a winner. My first place…read morewas good but too far; the second (already reviewed) won't see me again. Booking online was super easy. From the moment I walked in, the front desk staff were warm and inviting. My waxing specialist greeted me right away to prep the room. She was kind, knowledgeable, and made me feel totally at ease. She asked about my previous experiences and consistently checked on the wax temperature and my comfort level. She even noticed I was sweating and immediately turned on a fan, which was a huge relief! I really enjoyed her company throughout the appointment. She also gave excellent, clear aftercare advice, detailing product usage and when to begin. What I appreciated most was her approach to a pre-pay package; it felt like a genuine recommendation to save money, not a pushy upsell. I ended up buying a skin treatment and upgraded to the package because it was truly a fantastic deal.

I got waxed here last month and while the wax itself was great my experience with who ever is…read morehandling book keeping was not. I would not recommend this wax place solely for that reason. managing the membership is a PAIN, I was not able to get set up in the app and had to call to manage my membership. The phone lines run busy and when you finally get to someone it's as if they don't want to talk to you. I was requesting a cancellation of the service due to not living in the area anymore, I was told they would cancel my appointment, suspend my membership for 3 months and send me the cancellation email. I was reassured that I wouldn't be charged and that the suspension would cover the 1 month it takes to actually cancel the membership. not only did I not receive any information regarding the suspension or cancellation via email I was charged again a week later for another month. this is very frustrating to me because it was so easy for them to get me all the information QUICKLY to sign up for the membership but now that I need to manage it they are very slothful in that. again the lady who did my wax was great and I hope soon she branches out and gets her own wax spot. As far as front desk goes better training may be needed in membership management and customer request follow through.

My wife has been coming to Paola's for waxing for sometime now and raves about it.

My daughter was excited, but very nervous before her treatment. Paola was super nice and managed to calm my daughters nerves by reassuring her it would be relaxing. After the treatment, my daughter was glowing and super happy asking when she can come back. We are a few days out now and my daughters skin is looking great for the new school year. I'd say Paola is Teenager approved as well. Thank you Paola for taking care of my girls!

I wasn't sure who to choose for my eyebrow threading so I let the front desk lady guide me to the next available person. Big mistake! I advised the person to please don't make my eyebrows too thin and just give me an arch. Needless to say it wasn't a good experience. What usually takes 5 min for both eyebrows took 15. At that point I already knew I was not going to like the results. Unfortunately I was correct. She completely botched my eyebrows. What took months to grow out ended with 2 super then mismatched eyebrows. I'm highly disappointed. I guess I'll stick with the Wesley Chapel location.

Not the best Brazilian wax I've experienced but the results were decent…read more I could tell the person who waxed me was inexperienced based off how slow she worked. She was able to get most of the hair from the front but left a couple of patches in my inner thighs. I also didn't like the fact that she questioned me being a student and did not seem like she wanted to apply the first time customer promo. Overall I'd give them a 5/10, may update review since I wasn't able to try the sugaring that day and was told my next waxing would be discounted.

I was pleasantly surprised to find she has a $39 Brazilian deal on Wednesdays (though her prices are overall very reasonable- especially for the service itself, and in comparison to other salons). The online booking was vey easy to navigate and use. I accidentally scheduled my appoinment for the wrong time and she got back to me in less than 30 minutes and resolved my issue easily. Lina does amazing work, she's quick (without rushing or hurting you), and keeps a relaxing environment. I will 100% be returning and telling people about her!

Her location is very tricky to find - and google maps lead me astray. I actually had to call her to find the place. You have to turn into the Arbors at Carrollwood development (look for the flags at the entrance), circle a roundabout, and then her location is in the shops area, next to a laundromat. It is not marked very well, so look for the hanging sign. Her shop is just one room, so I waited outside while she finished with her current client. I love that she was exactly on time, even though she had back-to-back appointments. Ashley was awesome! Friendly, cheerful, and chatty, she made my waxing time fly by, with a minimal amount of pain. Her shop was bright and clean, and appeared to be very sanitary. The experience was just so perfect, I have already scheduled my next appointment in 4 weeks.
