The shaping was better than other places I have tried and she actually measured my brows/face to keep the ratios right. Wax was a little too hot on one strip during bikini wax but irritation was gone after a day. FYI be prepared to take your shoes off. I didn't know my first time when I went so I wore flip flops.

Lani was there to greet me and take me to her room the second I walked in and had music playing which really helped distract my nerves! I came in for a brazilian wax a bit nervous and unsure what to expect, both experience wise and pain level. Lani was so kind, calm, quick and reassuring that it didn't even hurt. I couldn't be happier with my results and would definitely come back in 4-6 weeks to keep up with my waxing. I was expecting to be screaming and crying in pain but it was about 2/10 pain level and no negative after effects, just smooth as ever!

She also criticized my hair itself. While I understand that she may have been frustrated, this did not warrant such unnecessary behavior, was a very unpleasant experience.

I'm not kidding. I schedule my vacations around it. The thing is.. over those 8 years my life took some massive downs (some ups) - Ashley became one of the most true and honest people in my life. My cancer treatment started and I decided to cut my hair short - and she did that cut for me (free). My mom died and she reached out and said "come relax and get your hair done - you'll need it before the services" That's someone who truly cares (again didn't charge was just being a good person). She has become a trusted friend, and honestly my hair has never looked better. I cheated on her recently my (ex) doesn't understand how hair works and how it's a part of you (no fault he is almost bald). Ashley did my hair yesterday and we went for a pride theme! OMG. It's insane! This is magazine ready and I'm no supermodel! Marisa's is a creative space where all are included! I've met Marisa maybe 2x and she's a delight!

Before I found her on a whim during my sophmore year of college, I typically got my eyebrows waxed at various nail salons. Unfortunately, I have very sensitive skin and those experiences rarely ended well. Karin's room is cozy and eclectic, which mirrors her personality. During the appointment, she usually has good music playing in the background. She is meticulous and takes her time, which leads to great results. I wouldn't see anyone else for waxing services!

They use hard wax which is very important when it comes to getting waxed as it's not as painful. If you're new to waxing, your esthetician will walk you through the process and goes over how to care for your skin post-wax so don't be afraid to book an appointment here. This is one of the best waxing places I've been to (I've lived in CA and TX). They carry post wax care products to help minimize pesky in-growns. There is a student or military/first responder too! Plenty of parking space in the back and the studio is easy to find. Overall, a very well maintained studio.

Everything from the massage chair to the display of 1,000 nail colors and finishes is top shelf. I've had 2 gel manicures before this which were very nice though the polish started to chip off on this last one after one week, previous experience at other salons has consistently been no chips for 2+ weeks. 20% off pricing is a big plus. My pedicure was not a positive experience. It was a cold day in January, and my feet were ice cold, but instead of warming my feet up and softening my nails in the foot bath, the technician immediately started to cut my toe nails...which really hurt! I told her I wanted to warm my feet up and started to put them in the bath, she pulled them back out! I also have ingrown toenails, so the painful trimming made me yell "Ow!" Loudly! The nail tech then tried to be somewhat gentle- the final result was that my toenails hardly got trimmed. She did give me a very nice foot and leg massage. However, I do not plan to return.

The actual pedicure felt rough at times with pulling, filing too close to the skin, and a hot stone massage that was more forceful than soothing. There was very little interaction.

Not the worst, but definitely not what I'd seek out for a relaxing self-care moment.
