I found Prickly Pear when my previous waxing studio closed after 15 years. It can be ​a bit unnerving to try a new wax studio, and even more so to ​know whom​ you can trust. ​Now, after being a customer for over a year, I wanted to give a review. Camrynn​ consistently does an incredible job. She is professional and friendly, ​I am always 100% satisfied with the results. The studio is clean, safe,​ and ​very comfortable. If I could give this beautiful studio 6 stars I would. ​I highly recommend Prickly Pear Waxing Studio. ​ read more

Love Camryn, she does the best job! Super cute & clean studio. Great location downtown San Clemente.

I had an amazing experience at Prickly Pear Waxing! Camrynn was absolutely wonderful - sweet, professional, and incredibly kind. From the moment I walked in, she made me feel comfortable and it was clear she knew exactly what she was doing The wax they use is high quality, and to my surprise, it didn't hurt at all! Camrynn was so gentle throughout the entire process, and we ended up chatting the whole time, which made the session fly by.On top of that, she even gave me a free gift at the end, which was such a thoughtful touch. If you're looking for a place with great service, a relaxing atmosphere, and someone as friendly and skilled as Camrynn, Prickly Pear is the way to go. Highly recommend! read more

Camrynn is awesome! My favorite place for my eyebrow shaping and tint. She also does amazing work tinting and lifting lashes.

Thank you for helping me feel beautiful and confident! Prickly pear takes gentle care in the services they provide. I have very sensitive skin and this is the only wax studio that has reduced breakouts and ingrown hairs. I have been a client for over a year and love the results. read more

Wow, Madalyn is awesome! First time here and I'll definitely be back. I booked online (super easy) for a next day Brazilian wax appointment. Madalyn is very efficient, really easy to talk to, and the whole process was as painless as possible. Thank you! read more

This was my first time at the prickly pear wax studio, and I must say it was just great. I got a Brazilian wax done by Camrynn and she is awesome! Friendly, professional, and easy to talk to which made me feel very comfortable. Plus she definitely knows what she's doing making the process almost painless. I was so pleased that I booked my next appt. right after the session. Very much recommend, Thank you Camrynn! read more

The best little waxing studio right in the heart of San Clemente. The location is convenient and street parking is easy. The studio is adorable, welcoming and drenched in sunlight. No bland, windowless room with a cold pleather table and the kind of clinical paper that should be saved for annual clinical appointments only! Nope, it's not the get ''em in and get 'em out kind of place with rotating personnel. This is the place that your good friend recommended because her good friend did too. And repeat. Camrynn is my new fave. She is so sweet and friendly. I was at ease and comfortable. The wax was the perfect temperature and texture. No hot lava or strings of wax landing her and there and everywhere. Just smoothly waxing on. And smoothly waxing off. Dare I say I look forward to my next visit?! read more

Camrynn was AMAZING! it was my first time getting waxed and she made me feel so comfortable and she is so genuine In her service. if I would have known about this studio sooner I wouldn't have waitied so long tI get waxed. No joke this place is the BEST! The studio is very clean and so cute! HANDS DOWN 5 STAR SERVICE! read more

Hey guys: want to know one of the things that sucks about getting older? Hair won't grow on your head, but gets out of control in other areas you'd rather not see. Well, Madalyn is the consummate pro who will take care of your brows and ears before you put somebody's eye out. Leave self-waxing for your surfboard, and the rest to her deft expertise. She's a total professional who makes the experience pleasant and easy. Your wife, like mine, will thank you! read more

Prickly Pear is the best waxing salon in OC! Booking is super easy, fast and Madalyn is a great gentle esthetician. I've been using her for brows and Brazilians for almost 2 years now. She is the best and super sweet. Definitely come here if you want great service and care. read more

Super happy with my eyebrow wax I received here. Quick, painless, and looked great! They also squeezed me in next day which I appreciated!

Great experience and very personable esthetician! This was my first Brazilian and Madalyn did a fantastic job and made me feel comfortable the entire time. I can't recommend Prickly Pear more! read more

Madelyn is so particular and thourough in her waxing technique. Love her! Waxing to me was a dread in the past. I now look forward to seeing her. She makes it a pleasant experience and is always accommodating. Thank you Madelyn!! W read more

I'm so grateful to Madalyn for making me feel comfortable when I went to her for a wax. She's super friendly and chatty, which helps distract you from the waxing process. Her studio is clean and relaxing, and it was easy to find parking right across the street. I highly recommend her for anyone looking for waxing hair removal services in or near San Clemente. read more

For those of you that are still getting your eyebrows done at the same place that does your nails, you're really missing out. I've been a fan of Madalyn's, since the first time she did my brows. I even followed her from her previous establishment. She is gentle and takes her time to make sure she gets every last little hair. Same goes for a bikini wax. She really has an attention for detail. She listens to what you have to say, and puts you at ease. It's like catching up with an old friend. The atmosphere is very Zenlike and the bed is crazy comfortable. Anytime somebody comments on my eyebrows, I quickly let them know who's responsible. Don't forget the great location! She's right in the heart of San Clemente. You can grab a sandwich and head down to the beach. Why not make a relaxing afternoon out of it. You won't be disappointed:) read more

Madalyn was amazing! The boutique is very chic, clean, and relaxing as well. Will definitely be back in the future!

This was my first visit at Prickly Pear Wax Studio and it couldn't have gone better. I got a Brazilian by Camrynn and it was by far the best I've ever gotten. She made me feel very comfortable and was always quick to ensure my comfort. She was very meticulous with her work which I appreciate. I made sure to book my next appointment before I left the studio- i can't wait! read more

Camrynn was an incredibly sweet gal and did an amazing job on my eyebrows and eyelash lift! Highly recommend, location and studio is super cute too! read more

Madalyn is awesome! She is very professional and friendly. I love that she takes Covid safety seriously. Everything was very clean and hygienic which is very important to me. This was my first visit and she made me feel very comfortable. I highly recommend her services. :) read more

I loved my first experience getting waxed at the prickly pear wax studio. I don't do a lot of reviews but this place was perfect so here I am! My technicians name was Camrynn and she was fantastic! She made me feel so comfortable (she knows what she's doing) and she was so much fun to talk with it made me feel like the time flew by! I always get anxious going to a Brazilian wax appointment with a new person but Camrynn was awesome and I'll definitely be back soon! read more

I could recommend going to Madalyn just for the great conversation experience :D but the waxing experience was also TOTALLY better and more painless than I expected. Today was my first Brazilian wax ever, and I'm so relieved it was done by Madalyn. When it came time to put my knees to my chest, I felt a lot less self-conscious than I would've expected for being butt naked in front of a stranger, and Madalyn's easygoing personality was definitely the reason. I also really appreciated that she reassured me she would take as long as needed to perfect my nether region. Pain-freeness: A+ Level of relaxation: A++ Overall wax experience: A+++ Also, cute salon decor: A++++ read more

Seriously the best wax I've EVER had! Very little pain and close attention to detail. Not one hair was left. I highly recommend coming here for your next wax appointment! read more

Madalyn is the best and she really is so sweet. Her new studio is fantastic too! When you walk in its a good warm fuzzy feeling :)

I came out to San Clemente for about 3 months and never had anyone else touch my eyebrows before other than the woman I see at my waxing studio back home. I was nervous but I badly needed a clean up. Madalyn was kind, personable and super gentle with my brows and cleaned them up perfectly without changing the shape of them. She was super informative about the wax she used and always reminded me of skin care after a wax. I will definitely be coming back here the next time I'm in San Clemente. read more

Let me start off by saying that without waxing, I've had to shave everyday. Madalyn is everything you want in a first, and reoccurring experience when getting waxed. She's provided the most comfortable, and detailed job I've ever had. She's done my Brazilian/arm pits for years and knows that I have very sensitive skin, prone to ingrown hair, and I am one of the lucky ones to be in her care. I finally found someone that educated me about day to day skin care and it makes a huge difference. The BEST thing is that madalyn spends the time that I need to be finished, unlike big brand wax salons, you're in and out based on their schedule with broken hair etc. Its a relief to be waxed by her. I know the difference and I'll never go to another person. read more

Finding a good waxologist is like finding a good hairstylist -- once you find your person, you basically follow them around for life. Madalyn is that person! I've been going to Madalyn for over a year now and followed her from her previous establishment to Prickly Pear. She is a professional who does an exceptional job every time. The wax she uses is gentle, the process is painless and she's detailed. Not only is she great at what she does, her customer service is why I'm a returning client! From my first ever wax service, she eased my nerves and now every visit is basically me catching up with a friend. You can tell from the other reviews that she values her relationships with her clients, and she's someone you just want to hang out with! Also, parking is a breeze. She's located in the Beach Waves Hair Salon and they have a small designated lot for customers. Definitely contact her to set up an appointment! read more

Best brow waxing in San Clemente!! Best job on my eyebrows ever. I definitely recommend her. Absolutely love Madalyn !! Very professional, clean, and friendly. So happy I found a great place to get waxed. This will now be the only place I get my brows done! read more

Madalyn is the sweetest and nicest! She is so delicate. I like how natural my eyebrows look and I'm always getting compliments from other people. I love coming to the little studio, it's so cute and always smells good! She works around your schedule and she is fast. Love her and her job!!!! I'm so happy I found her! read more

Prickly Pear Wax Studio - Waxing Near Me - San Clemente, California

When I heard that Madalyn was opening up her own studio, I could not have been more excited! This new location is super cute and of course very clean and sanitary. I have been waxing for a few years now, and can honestly say that Madalyn provides the best waxing experience out there. She has a great attention to detail and waxes in a way that is relatively painless. She speaks to you like a friend, making the experience easy and comfortable throughout the entire process. After moving to San Diego, I tried searching for new waxing salons near me but seriously nothing could compare!! Madalyn is the best at what she does and I will definitely be making the drive up to San Clemente to see her for all of my waxing needs. Book an appointment with her! You will NOT be disappointed. :) read more

Madalyn is absolutely incredible. Her studio has a wonderful atmosphere and is extremely clean, comfortable, and adorable! Her techniques barely hurt (if at all) and she is so fun and easy to talk to that my appointments are over before I know it. I genuinely don't ever want to go anywhere else to get waxed! Thank you Madalyn! read more

First time really getting a wax and couldn't have picked a better place. Madelyn is super sweet and generous. Genuinely cares about how you're doing during the wax and the outcome of the work she does! She gave me so much knowledge also in the process. Definitely will be going back and made my blows look gorgeous for me personally and especially for my wedding day! read more

I had some anxiety going to a different spot than my normal waxing place. It was somewhat of a drive but, I went. It was literally a studio with one lady who was working. It was a beautiful, comfortable and there was 1:1 service!! I really liked the service I received! I have always gotten waxed by the strips but, it was a different experience with different material!! Super impressed and will continue to go back!! Thank you for making my experience all about me!! read more

Normally I don't rate business outside of restaurants because I love food so much... but I had to make an exception with Madi and Prickly peach... lol. I've been going to her for a couple years and every time I ask why during the session until of course when she's all finished, like a bad but exciting relationship. All jokes asides Madelyn's a pro and makes for great conversation, I do recommend trying her and when you do I'll bet you'll be back for more! read more

Very cute clean store. Felt no pain ! Fantastic esthetician. Im definitely going back and so should you!

I have been going to see Madalyn for a couple years now and she has become way more than just a place to go to get waxed. She always goes above and beyond to make her clients feel at home and at ease! I look forward to going to see Madalyn and want to go more than I even need to just to get to see her! Madalyn has become a friend, my therapist, my face/body product guru and MOST IMPORTANTLY... She's the best waxer in OC (probably all of the US honestly!!!) Next time you need a wax, go to Prickly Pear! You will not regret it. read more

Madalyn is awesome! I just moved to the area and luckily picked her wax studio from all of the great reviews. Madalyn does great work. Plus her place is super cute, comfortable, and clean. Madalyn is nice and easy to speak with. I would recommend her to everyone! read more

Randomly made an appointment here because it was close to home. With age comes crazy eyebrows that get a little out of hand. Madilyn did an amazing job taming them. She also didn't go overboard and kept me looking like a dude! They look so natural. She's super funny and made me feel comfortable doing some manscaping. My girlfriend noticed right away! The littlest change made a big difference. Thanks Madilyn! read more

I have had my legs waxed in the past..but it was always such a painful process I never go back. I was going on a long tropical vacation and decided I needed to buck up and take the pain. Madalyn is such a genuine, kind, and personable human! She did a perfect job on my legs and bikini area. She runs a professional business and covers every detail throughout the whole experience. I could not have been happier. I booked another appointment 4 weeks out. I intend to keep coming back. read more
