I've been here twice for a Brazilian, and while there are definitely some positives, my overall…read moreexperience hasn't quite met my expectations. The space is really beautiful and welcoming, and the staff are kind--I appreciated being greeted right when I walked in. That said, both times I've visited, I did end up waiting a bit past my appointment time, which was a little frustrating. The services themselves felt a bit rushed, and I didn't get the same level of attention to detail I've experienced at other places. I also noticed that the wax residue wasn't fully cleaned off afterward, which I personally prefer as part of the service. Lastly, there were a few areas that felt slightly incomplete, so I didn't leave feeling 100% satisfied with the results. Because of these issues, I don't think I'll be returning.

She worked with confidence and skill, making the waxing process smooth and comfortable. On top of that, she was friendly, pleasant, and very accommodating throughout the appointment. I was especially impressed by her honesty--she adjusted the price when the service required less work than originally scheduled. Overall, a professional and customer-focused experience. I highly recommend Stephanie and her services!

It has now been 2 years since I have been a client of Katie. I felt the need to give an update…read morebecause it's been a while. I have went to two other studios one in Berkeley that specializes in sugaring and the other in rock ridge that has two other locations and both spas are around if night hire pricing as nude salon. Timing and distance is the only reason I went to another salon. One was so uncomfortable and the lady was extremely rude the second place the lady after I told her twice burnt me. With this being said I will not go anywhere else but with Katie. I live in el cerrito so it is a drive and with traffic can take over an hr but she is so worth it. Her space is always clean the having slight ice this puts me at ease. The wax is always top quality and never once over a dozen times too hot or caused any irritation. She is also extremely kind and works at a speed I don't feel rushed but it is fast I can get in and out writhing 30 min if I don't chat her ear off too much. Her booking system is easy but I find it best to reschedule ahead to get my desired appointment she books out. If you are new to waxing or a seasoned waxed looking for a fabulous wax Katie is your girl. I appreciate her making a service that can be scary and painful as painless as possible. I always feel so much more confident and grateful after my wax session. Don't walk run to make your apt. Alexandra

I've lived in several different states and cities, so I've had my fair share of Brazilian sugaring and waxing experiences. She is incredibly detail-oriented, and I've never left an appointment with missed patches or stray hairs. She always makes sure to get everything. Beyond that, she truly goes above and beyond to provide the best care. I tend to get a lot of ingrown hairs, and she's been so helpful in teaching me how to prevent and treat them at home. She also takes the time to address them during each appointment, which has made such a difference. She creates such a comfortable, welcoming environment and checks in throughout the appointment to make sure you're doing okay. Brazilians are never completely painless, but Serena makes the experience as seamless and comfortable as possible. It's easily the least painful Brazilian sugaring experience I've ever had. I can't recommend her enough!

Scheduling is super easy thru the Vagaro app. If you have been curious about sugaring, I'd highly recommend going to Kelli for your first time!
