Scam artist alert

At first it seemed like she knew what to do even though she was late, until she tried to tell me what I wanted was not what I thought and continued to argue with me and obnoxiously go extremely slow to test my pain tolerance after I was specific with what I expected. I wanted the deep bikini. All other salons I've been to understood to take off all the hair underneath leaving a bit of a landing strip on top about two fingers width rather than 4 like what I was given here. She tried to convince me that that is a Brazilian. Later after getting home I noticed that she only did the work of a half leg instead of full. I tried to contact her to find out that I was ignored and practically cheated out of not only my money but time and energy as well.

The best spray tan!! I came here from out of town for a spray tan the week of my wedding. I was…read moresuper nervous because I didn't have the chance to do a trial beforehand, but I had had spray tans at other salons. Maria did an incredible job! I got the express tan on Wednesday night and showered 3 hours later to control the color. It stayed beautifully until my Saturday wedding! I'm so happy I trusted sugar for my tan, and they were so kind and willing to do touch-ups of it wasn't absolutely perfect. My biggest fear was streaky hands for a wedding (a lot of ring/hand photos) but they did a tremendous job. Highly recommend for everyone but especially the brides!

Michelle is kind, professional, and really good at what she does. Sugaring isn't painless, let's be…read morehonest. This is hair removal, not a spa nap. But she works quickly, makes it as comfortable as possible, and walks you through the process so you're not just gripping the table in silence. I have sensitive skin and this is one of the few places that doesn't leave me irritated for days. Everything she uses is all natural, and my skin handles it well. She also offers spray tans if that's your thing. The bathrooms are actually clean. Not "we wiped the counter real quick." Clean. Complimentary tampons and wipes are stocked, which tells me she's thinking about her clients beyond the appointment. There's free Jolly Ranchers and gum in the waiting area. A little sugar before the sugar. Booking online is easy. There's plenty of parking in the back. I've been coming for years and I still drive from Ventura. That's not casual loyalty; it's because she's that good.

Everything felt seamless, the coordination, the timing, and the overall flow of our visit made it easy to relax right away. The space itself is beautiful and calming, which only added to the experience. What stood out most was the level of personalized care. They really took the time to understand our different pain points and tailor the massages to what each of us needed. Roxanne, the owner, was also my massage therapist, and she was incredible--so intuitive and attentive. Our facials were just as great. My skin feels amazing, and my husband especially appreciated how the aesthetician walked him through each step and offered thoughtful recommendations for his skincare routine at home. We both left feeling so well taken care of and are already looking forward to coming back!

I made an appointment for a 1hr Swedish massage and 1hr hydroluxe facial. It was one of the best experiences I've ever had! Roxanne did such an amazing job at making me as comfortable and relaxed as possible. She's very attentive and wonderful! She made sure she was applying the appropriate pressure for my massage and the facial was the best and most relaxing part of my experience! I was unbelievably satisfied with my experience here and I highly recommend giving this place a try!

I highly recommend Marlin. I was always nervous about how painful waxing would be and the overall…read moreprocess and vulnerability of it. However, Marlin made me feel super comfortable from the very beginning. First of all, the place is extremely clean. When I arrived, she was already disinfecting the table which was very comforting. I am someone that values cleanliness and that was reassuring to see. Not to mention her place is super cute and clean and you can tell she takes pride in keeping it that way. Now the process: I can't say it is pain free but Marlin surely does aim to make you feel comfortable as much as she can. Throughout the process she would ask me how I was holding up and would even suggest breaks if needed. I really appreciated this because I am not sure everyone would be so willing to take many breaks like we did my first time. However, what I can say is that it gets less painful and my subsequent waxes after the first went a lot faster and a whole lot less painful. I think this is due to Marlin's skill level and quickness. She is also is very thorough and double checks her work. Lastly, the results last. If you are looking for a thorough and friendly esthetician, look no further and go to Marlin.

I have tried a lot of different waxing places around Santa Barbara over 7 years and this was…read moredefinitely my favorite! Marleen is SO friendly and fun to chat with, but she also took the time to evaluate her work and was super thorough! Also, it was very reasonably priced! Highly highly recommend.
