I've been to my share of waxing and tanning places because I've had a variety of areas waxed since high school and have been tanning since my mom had to sign a waiver. Needless to say, that means I've had my fair share of experiences with places and people for waxes and tans. Sugared and Bronzed is bar none the best I've been to in Orange County. I've never left unhappy. Highly highly recommend any location but the Irvine one is something special and it's so convenient right off the freeway. read more

I've always gone to places like European Wax Center because of their accessibility. I came to S+B once before for a Brazilian wax, and it was about the same intensity of discomfort as EWC but I like that sugaring results in less waste and I was still happy with the results. Professional staff too. read more

I got an armpit and Brazilian wax from this location a while back and it was such an awesome and relaxing experience! I was super nervous to get waxed and this was actually my first time getting sugar waxing. I got my waxing done by Daniela and she was amazing! She was able to answer all my questions about sugar waxing and guided me throughout the process to help me stay relaxed. Honestly, I felt very calm and she told me when to breathe at the right moments to alleviate any pain that came from waxing! Anywho, the results are phenomenal and I felt so smooth and non-irritated. The place is also very neat, tidy, and minimal. Felt good to know that the place where I am getting waxing done is nice and clean as well. I highly recommend getting a sugar wax from here :) read more

This was my first time getting sugared and a bikini one at that! I was nervous! I'm a bigger girl and my insecurities were getting the best of me! I can't say enough good things about ABIGAIL! She was so sweet and professional and made to experience so amazing that I got a membership! Thank you so much! read more

I have a membership for sugaring and it is the absolute best! Yes, it's painful BUT bearable. The staff is super awesome and very chatty during the appointments which keeps your mind off the pain. I have also tanned here quite a bit and every time has been fabulous. The training appointments are a great way to save $! Will keep going here for my sugaring and tanning needs. read more

When I tell you my first experience (Irvine location) was AMAZING, definitely not exaggerating, as well as the ambiance from waiting area to the actual room. Very nice! The entire whole sugar bikini wax was handled with care, and did not disappoint. I also purchased their Hocoba Oil (highly recommended), and exfoliating mitt. Love this place! read more

Very pleasant spray tanning experience. Kind staff, clean facility.. extremely well designed. Excellent area for tanning..best I've ever been to. Quality of tan seems good . curious how long it will last. Only negative is that 18% tip automatically added to bill. I personally don't appreciate that. Raise your price and don't allow tipping if it's going to automatically be added. read more

I definitely would recommended Sugar + Bronzed! I got a Brazilian and a spray tan, and my results and experience exceeded expectations. Previously, I was waxing and started to get really bad Ingrown hair, and now that I've been sugaring, I haven't got any more, which I can't believe. Also, the hair is growing back slowly and more fine. I want to try my underarms and legs next. The spray tan had a pleasant and refreshing smell, and the bronze color looked really natural. It is way better than getting a spray tan in a booth because it's more even and my feet didn't get too dark. 5 stars! read more

Amazing Place! I got a Brazilian wax done by Val! Such a great experience and I highly recommend getting waxed here. You won't be disappointed with Val, great customer service and she's very professional and skilled ! I Loved my results ! read more

Awesome! Great staff- friendly, professional and helpful! Love the time flexibility that this business has to offer! It was our first time there right before our trip and my legs especially I felt stayed pretty tanned for over a couple of weeks. Other areas where I had more creasing and sweat lasted a good 7+ days- but as expected. Their lotion for aftercare to extend the tanning helped a lot as well! read more

Cute facility, lovely staff, and over all great experience! The products they sell are great too.

My first time at S+B was quick and easy. Highly recommend this place. They use beets instead of oranges in their spray so your tan comes out richer and deeper rather than "orangey." read more

Irvine location was clean. Friendly staff, easy to use app for booking and reasonable pricing.

I'm writing this after my third session and this time with Serena because she deserves all the praise! I am beyond happy with my Brazilian! She left no hair behind! She is nice, professional and friendly! Im through the moon with how well it turned out! I am so impressed how she got into deep areas and stripped it all away and it wasn't so painful! I love her and I hope she get recognition from her manager! I look forward to seeing her again! read more

See all

Great experience. Quick and girls are very efficient. I only spray for events, but I'll consider coming more often

Professional and friendly staff, consistent service at the Los Olivos location, and reasonable prices. This is my go-to for spray tans.

I love the Irvine location the staff is great, fast, and friendly. I'm excited to have my membership now. booking is fast and easy.

I loved their service. Friendly, efficient, and great spray tan. I am a frequent spray tanner when going to events, I have tried many places. I love the esthetics also and they are not over priced. I liked how they are open late and they had plenty of open appointment times. It was easy and my tan turned out great, zero smudges. read more

I'm so happy I found Sugared and Bronzed! Soo happy with my spray tan results! I called in at 10pm the night before my birthday and the girls were able to see me with no problems!! All the girls were very kind and helpful! I highly recommend. I saw a comment about the tipping and I think it's great that they let you know there is a tipping fee it's 2023 everyone works so hard with no pay increase now a days I think it's great that a tip is required. The girls are taking the time to make you feel good and help you a tip never hurts. Be kind to those around you. Great spot! read more

I have been here twice for the express tan and both times my tan came out flawless. Will be my go to place from now on.

I absolutely love this place! I get both sugared and bronzed here! Staff is great and I'm satisfied each time!

Sugaring is everything! I love how quick and easy it is. I love that my hairs are softer and not prickly. It's great not to get as many ingrowns anymore. The staff are always friendly and sweet- very well trained for the services. :) highly recommend over waxing and shaving any day. read more

I switched from another place and love this place, quick, efficient and caring staff, already recommended to friends!

The perfect place for sugaring and tanning! I have only had positive experiences every time I have visited this location. Last week I walked in a little earlier, I was greeted with enthusiasm and helpfulness right away. I was treated with so much care and attention, and felt valued and assisted from beginning to end. This location is incredibly clean with lots of parking. Love the staff and service here!! read more

I am a regular at S+B Irvine and have never had a bad experience. Staff is always very friendly and kind, and the place is very well kept and clean. Very cute vibes and respectful, lovely ladies!! :) read more

Quick and professional service. The girls are great at thier job, I've subscribed to their membership to make it easier when I go in. They get booked pretty fast but they have a large selection time slots to book. Really recommend this location to get Brazilian wax. read more

Excellent service... friendly, professional and on time. First time there, but definitely coming back! read more

The Irvine location is beautiful. So clean and bright. I was greeted right away and checked in promptly by the girls at the front. Genesis was amazing and walked me through my first sugaring experience. She made me feel extra comfortable and relaxed. My skin loved the sugaring. I will for sure me coming back. Already booked my next appointment. read more

I have been here a handful of times and this place, like any others, has its pros and cons. Pros- super convenient! The place is large with lots of availability, so it's very easy to get an appt, even last minute. Parking is easy and location is convenient. For those of us who don't want to make an appt weeks in advance and drive to the beach cities, it's a really good option. Place is clean and decor is simple, so you feel comfortable and calm. Many of my sugaring services have been very well done. Cons- like any place where there are many estheticians, quality is going to vary. Though most of my services have been great, I also had the most painful Brazilian here once, with an esthetician who was incredibly aggressive and finished what was supposed to be a 20 min service in 10. It was then that I realized that unlike some other places, they don't give you an option to choose who you want your service with. The girls don't introduce themselves before starting, it's a "get who you get" type of deal. When you are checking out, they tell you that they added an 18% tip and ask if that is okay. This doesn't sit well with me. A tip should be something you opt into, not something you opt out of. I always tip and have never opted out (not even when my service was rushed to take half the allotted time), but I hope they are not underpaying the girls working there in hopes they can get away with it with essentially forced tips. Bottom line- is this place the best? Maybe. Depends who you get. Is it the most convenient? Yup! read more

It was such a wonderful experience! It's super clean and such an easy process. I'll definitely be back.

Once again the team has blown me away. it starts with walking through the doors always greeted with a smile and addressed by name. Then the service always very professional but personal such as how is my family and any plans coming up? I have gone to several different locations and always the same experience it starts from the top down. Thanks to each and everyone of you keep up the great work. read more

LONG time shaver - like over 25 years. First time seeking professional services for something so intimate. Yep. I'm talking Brazilian here. About 5 months ago I got a home waxing system. I had no idea how difficult it would be to inflict pain on yourself. One and done. Never again! After a friend convinced me to give Sugaring a try (versus hard or soft wax), I began searching the internet for salons near me with positive reviews. Let's face it, the experiences others have in certain things matters! I came across S & B (Irvine Location). They had solid reviews, some that spoke to the service I was looking for as a "first timer". Let's be honest, it's about the embarrassment factor more than the pain. Am I right? So being made comfortable was a top priority. THE EXPERIENCE: Started with an appointment made online, set up an account, opted to put in payment info ahead of time and off I went. I was promptly greeted the minute I came in. Place was warm and inviting with soft colors, beachy vibe. I was escorted to a room and my technician HAILEY gave me the run-down. I had already mentioned I was a first timer and nervous! Folded up my clothes, positioned myself on my back on the table, and covered with the towel provided (there was also a towelette to freshen up, very sanitary). She came back in and asked me to "butterfly" (I didn't know what that was and she was happy to explain). She spoke calmly to me throughout the process, offering encouragement, praise, and telling me when to take a deep breath. She offered a hand towel for me to hold on to, which I gladly accepted, holding it as tight as I could in my clenched fists - dabbing sweat from my face during those more sensitive spots. I asked questions about the sugar ball since I really had no clue what it was and my frame of reference was strips of wax or cloth that look like caterpillars after each pull. That is not the case here. She sprinkled powder a few times before applying the sugar, I'm pretty sure powder sticks to the skin but not the hair so there is less pulling on the skin when the sugar is pulled up. Honestly, it was not the worst pain I've experienced. I definitely built up anxiety in my head. There were areas of "YOWZA" and Hailey noted that some people "slam their legs shut" (because you're in that butterfly position). The fact that I didn't do that made me feel pretty good - "Ya I can do this" was my inner mantra. Knees up for the finishing touches and "backside" - that part was painless. She asked if she could apply witch hazel and tea tree to soothe the skin. And that was it. The End. Honestly, I think it took 17 minutes start to finish. PREP & BEYOND: I hadn't shaved for 3 weeks and some of the hairs were too short for the sugar to grab. I tweezed those when I got home (were talking maybe 10 hairs. Results will vary based on your hair-growth cycle.) There is an 18% gratuity added to the service, which I was told at time of check-out and I upped it to 20% because service warranted it. Paperless. No pressure to purchase a package or join a membership. There will be no photos posted. You'll just have to take my word for the positive end result. I'm now a former shaver and a VERY happy Sugared & Bronzed Customer!! See you in about 4-5 weeks :) read more

This location has a real professional staff, Hailey and Serena are wonderful to work with. Last.month was the first time ever being sugared (never even waxed) and Hailey was very warm and walked through all expectations. I recognized Serena from TikTok and we had a wonderful conversation, she is a big sweetheart! My experience pushed me to become a member! read more

This location is very clean and the people that work there are all so positive and kind. I didn't even know about the membership savings but when I was at my brazilean they lady told me how I could save money. I thought was very nice of her and I did join. It is very in and out easy process. I recommend this location. You can't go wrong with anyone. read more

I love Sugared & Bronzed! They have such a great team - always so kind, helpful & caring.. They anticipate all of your needs and do a fantastic job! The best! read more

AN AMAZING Staff. I received my services today & I am so happy with the results. The staff is friendly, professional and most of all on time. I signed up for the single membership & can't wait to return next month. read more

I decided to try this place for my wedding in the Bahamas as I have a strapless dress. They explained the whole process and made me feel comfortable to undress. They are very friendly! read more

Love the staff and service is always amazing when i am visiting from Dallas! Definitely coming back!

I've never done waxing nor sugaring, but I'm definitely sticking to sugaring. Hailey made me feel very comfortable since it was my first time ever getting a Brazilian wax. I also like how you guys offer a monthly membership and it can roll over if you miss a month. read more

Ladies long are the days of painful hot waxing and inadequate waxing services! From the moment you walk through Sugared + Bronzed doors all your pre-waxing worries melt away as you are greeted by the warm smiles and bubbly demeanors of the ladies at the front desk. Aside from overall having a very clean space and quite frankly pleasing aesthetic your sugarista makes you feel safe and comfortable throughout the entire process. My sugarista Emily went above and beyond to make sure she took the time to completely sugar wax me, and at no point did I feel like she was rushing in order to get to the next client. There are many benefits of sugaring instead of regular waxing, but what sets Sugared + Bronzed apart from any other establishment truly is their services, expertise, and of course amazing sugarista staff. read more
