I absolutely love this place and need to specify that I like to go to the Irvine location. I was looking into getting a Brazilian and was nervous because I've heard the pain can be pretty high but since S&B had a $15.0 promotion if you get your wax with a trainee. I figured if the pain was too much at least I got to try something I wanted to do for a discount. My trainer was amazing and help ease me into the pain (because the first time was a bit painful). However the outcome was amazing and I got hooked and even ended up getting a membership. It is really easy to get an appointment via call or text which is awesome, especially for introverts. The office itself is so clean and serene like. I do want to note that it is a cashless establishment but I like to use my android pay or membership so I actually do not mind at all. In addition the team is great! read more

I've been coming here to get sugaring done for a few years now and had a membership for a little bit a couple years ago. I've never really had a disappointing experience until today. I've always had good experiences with the staff as they were always very welcoming and and kept conversation with me during the sugaring. However, the girl who did my sugaring today wasn't as talkative or comforting during the service. Not necessarily bad service, just the worst I've had at the salon so far. Second, I've noticed that the service - in terms of hair removal - is kind of inconsistent. I usually just come in for a bikini sugar wax and the amount of hair that is removed is not consistent. My last service before today, which was in October '24, the girl who did my sugaring basically did an extended bikini which also included the hair between the butt cheeks. She went beyond what I have had taken off for a bikini service before. Today at my appointment, the girl did a basic bikini and even asked if I wanted some hair removed from the top as well, which I had never been asked before, so I just assumed that was part of the normal bikini service. Also, I had never had a bikini appointment at S+B where the sugarer didn't ask if I wanted hair removed from in between the cheeks as well. I asked the girl who helped me today if she could do in between the cheeks as well, and she said yes, it would just be an extra $10 as they consider that a Brazilian. I understand if that is their policy, it is just disappointing that I had to pay more this time for less hair removal than I had gotten in the past. So, I don't appreciate the inconsistency. Also, from what I could see, there's no real clear indication on their website of what they classify as their bikini service vs. Brazilian. Lastly, I don't like how this company has the staff who did your service ask verbally if you are okay with the automatically added 18% gratuity or if you would like to adjust it. For a shy and mostly non-confrontational person like myself, I'm not going to feel comfortable telling the staff member who helped me that I would like to give them a lower tip. I wish it was done in a different way. I had thought in the past that they sent an email after your service asking if you would like to adjust the tip, but I did not receive that email this time. In all, I was disappointed that, at my service today, I ended up paying for a Brazilian when I had the least hair removed I have ever had at a S+B service. read more

My first time getting a sugar wax and a Brazilian for that matter.

I've been a customer at sugared + bronzed since 2019 and have been changed for the better. Not only is this thee most convenient hair removal process, but it's the fastest, safest, and easiest way to get a clean up done. To me, it was never painful, but I know that some people experience some pain or stinging; but the good thing is that it will only last a second or two so it doesn't linger. The staff at all 3 of the locations I've been to have been nothing but sweet, smiley, and professional; so I always look forward to my monthly visit especially because it feels like i'm about to go have brunch with my girlfriends. I highly recommend everyone to try out this chain, even if you don't plan on doing the hair removal process every month :) i love the team and will continue my loyalty here. read more

Called to let them know I was running 6 min late. I was told it was fine because they have a 10 min grace period. Once I got there they told me they couldn't do the full service because I was running 6 min late. So I pretty much drove here for nothing. So annoyed. read more

I came here to get tanned before my wedding and had a wonderful experience. I loved the private changing and tanning areas. They're a lot better than other tanning salons I've been to. I chose a level 3 tan and looked great in our photos. This quick and easy process was super helpful as I came in the day before we left for our wedding weekend! read more

Right before my vacation, I decided to get a spray tan. Since this was my first time, I was a bit nervous how it'll turn out. The end result was horrible! My tan was uneven (my arms are darker than my torso) and my legs were blotchy! It looked so bad that I couldn't wear my bikini to a beach vacation. read more

Great tan and great staff! The studio was well kept and it was a great experience. Would recommend

This was my first time having a spray tan and the person that did my tan was Maddie. I have a wedding to go to and wanted just a little bit of color. She made me feel very comfortable, in what was for me, a somewhat awkward situation I will definitely go back and request her read more

I absolutely love this location! All of the girls are so welcoming, sweet, and knowledgeable.

My tans come out FLAWLESSLY and my sugaring is quick and painless every time. I will never go anywhere else for these services and I love that they have multiple memberships you can choose from! read more

I am so very happy to say my experience was great here for my first sugar wax. Belinda was so very kind and knowledgeable. She took her time explaining why sugar wax is a much better alternative to regular wax. I am definitely going to come back again! Thank you again Belinda! read more

I've never gotten a bad spray tan here! They're also very knowledgeable on what level to get to match your skin tone. Will be back!

I love the fact that I can get a same day appointment and so far the women that have worked on me on my Brazilian have been absolutely phenomenal. Specifically the Irvine location! I used to go to the Newport location until I found out they were opening up one in Irvine and when I tell you the facility is absolutely welcoming, is an understatement. Because this is a new location, you can even tell that everyone who works there is excited to work there because everything is new equipment in a new space lol. It's definitely a judgment free zone and the women who are working with you are amazing communicators Once you sugar with them, you'll never go anywhere else. With that said, I do recommend the membership where you could go monthly and they charge you automatically but you also get a discounted rate with the membership which is amazing! My favorite perk is that when you don't go for one month, that month rolls over into the next and you can get a service of equal value. Honestly so worth it. read more

I was heading to a bachelorette weekend and wanted to try an airbrush tan. Having never done it before, I was a little nervous. My experience at S&B was amazing. I made an appointment and they were even able to move it earlier in the day when I called the day of. The girl that helped me explained the whole process and made me feel very comfortable. The tan looked amazing. I loved it so much that I signed up for membership on the spot. Highly recommend! read more

Claire was amazing! This was my first spray tan ever, and she explained the process in detail for the tan and after care. Very happy with results! I'll be back! read more

Sugared and bronzed is one of the best places I've gone to for sugaring. I love the Irvine location especially on the aesthetic of the place but most importantly the girls. I think every time I've gone, I've had such great employees-they all make you feel comfortable. Genesis is super amazing and I appreciated her tips for aftercare. read more

I'm headed to Hawaii. This was my first time! It was easy and very comfortable. I'm beautifully bronzed and ready for bikini

I really like the sugaring service. The techs are great and well trained for sugaring. My frustration is with how they've managed my account. It was actually the manager from the Newport office that suggested for me to switch to the single membership because of all the loyalty points that were stacking up for me. I really appreciated her suggestion so I went ahead with that option filled out the form and returned it. The automated email confirmed my account change , but a month later found out that my account wasn't changed while at Los Olivos Irvine facility. The technician in Irvine working the front desk was completely nonchalant, dismissive, unprofessional.."like... no big deal, the manager will be here any minute, she will review and I'll make sure she calls you." while singing and chewing gum. Of course..I never received a call because like "who really cares". Ugh! By the way, I always tip 20%. it's not about the money. It's about the dismissive incompetent behavior. Every time the girls in Irvine provide directions around managing my account, they have always been wrong. Two months prior. I had a question about an over charge and the girls at the front desk told me to call corporate. "The number is on the website and they will make sure to provide me a refund, or credit, etc., " Of course, there is no number to call on the website, so I left it alone. I just ignored it . so when I go to Newport, I really appreciated the manager/young lady being proactive with my account and suggesting for me to change it. So, I follow the process. and even with automated emails confirming the change they still screw it up. so forget it. I'll just get pay for laser. read more

This was my first time sugaring ever! It was only my second time getting a Brazilian. Let me tell you, it did hurt at times but did not compare to the pain I felt when waxing. With waxing, I was brought to tears. I will be returning in a few weeks as everything went so smoothly and I had a great experience with the staff. Everyone was friendly and welcoming; go to sugared + bronzed if you're on the fence about starting sugaring! read more

I have the membership at S&B. It's very convenient since there are multiple locations and everyone is so kind. Belinda was so thorough!! I cannot recommend S&B enough. I'd say the membership is well worth it! read more

Amazing experience. I enjoyed my sugaring session it was less painful than waxing and I liked how the sugar is cooler than the wax as well. Clean and beautiful studio with knowledgeable staff. read more

Don't like the model of not being able to select your service provider but I already paid so was going to continue as long as it worked. Today I was 20 minutes late ok I'll take the hit. Keep the payment do one service for me. They only allow you to book one service at a time even if you want multiple things in your appointment another "ich" to the model. Turns out they moved my second appointment (same day) to a different time without telling me so when I arrived they said I was late by 10 mins but was 10 minutes early for the time I booked. The young girls at the front desk were absolutely no help. I kept saying my service time and she would say the time they moved it to without notice. Canceled my membership right after. Too many options out here for incompetent service. read more

New location is amazing - love it! I've been getting sugared for at least the past 5 years at their CDM location. I wasn't thrilled with the parking situation there, but sugaring is SO much easier on my sensitive skin than waxing and less time consuming than shaving and that location was the closest to my office. The membership is easy and reasonably priced. This location has plenty of parking (even spaces right up front!). It has a cool beachy vibe and everything is very clean. Three sugaring rooms and three tanning rooms. My sugarista was great - friendly and easy to chat with. She told me to take deep breaths when sugaring sensitive spots, which helped prevent any discomfort. I'll have to go back for tanning. They've done a great job in the past of making it look natural for this normally pale redhead! read more

I really wanted to like this place but I have a few things that bothered me and have discontinued paying the monthly membership. First, I didn't feel comfortable with the way their doors do not locked during service for their Brazilian service. You have to lay down wide spread facing the sliding doors for this service leaving you exposed. If you ask to face the opposite way the person doing the e service has an issue. They are not accommodating to your request, I've asked 3x. I had a monthly membership for Sugaring and Bronzing. I have an issue with any company who charges for gratuities without asking me how the service is and doing a 18-20% charge on my card without me agreeing to the gratuity and especially for spray tanning. This only happened once but that was enough for me. I decided to discontinue my membership and move on. read more
