Elisa finally has a Yelp page! I love getting facials from Elisa. I started seeing her for skincare…read moretreatment last year, and she took the time to examine my skin and determine what it needed. She is super knowledgeable and was able to come up with an individually tailored plan to address my particular issues. She also explained each step and product she used as she cleansed, toned, exfoliated, and moisturized my skin, which I appreciated because I always want to know what's happening through each stage of treatments. She was incredibly thorough, and she used high-quality products that worked well with my sensitive skin. My skin felt refreshed and my face was literally glowing afterwards! So it's no surprise that I've been seeing Elisa ever since, whenever I'm in need of self-care or want to treat myself :)

I didnt get ANY result with SL after giving them a try 3 times and wasting my hard earned money. Anyway I contacted Cherry via text and she responded right away. I booked my first appointment. I didnt know which one to get so she looked at my skin and recommended microdermabrasion. As a first time client, you do get a discount. I waited a few days after to see whether I would have any breakout or allergic reaction to any of the stuff that she put on my face. What I love about Skintessa is that she takes her time preparing your skin for the best facial you'll ever have. She deep cleans it, uses different machines to stimulate collagen and extraction. She puts different stuff which none irritated my sensitive skin. None of the stuff smells bad too. I just had my 2nd facial a few days ago and I feel so clean and refresh. I highly recommend Skintessa for all your facial needs. She is good at what she does. I love our conversations as she is doing my treatment. The next few days after, I noticed my skin was softer and more relax. Ladies, do yourself a favor and take care of your skin. Dont hesitate on booking your appointment with Cherry.

A nice little eyelash extension studio in Pasadena near Hastings Ranch. I came by last week for a…read morewaxing appointment and they had availability on short notice. The shop has all of the treatment areas in one room with curtain dividers separating the beds for lashes, facials, and waxing. It's a very small space so it is not private but when we came in the appointments were one at a time with just one employee. They were polite and did a gentle waxing, but their primary business is eyelashes which seem to be a low price. It's just not something I've gotten into myself so I can't comment on the lash service but overall it was a decent appointment and affordable. I do wish they had more privacy for these types of self care services but it's a clean little shop.

I would like to preface my review by saying firstly, this is just for their waxing services and…read morealso that I do not have a ton of experience getting waxed. I have gone in for a half leg, upper lip, and brow waxing about five times in the last two years. I started off with my neighborhood manicure place. While the ladies there are very sweet, they're not really set up to be super successful in waxing. The tiny room that they wax in is poorly lit and the hair on my legs is a very light brown so I would always come out pretty patchy with hair left over in areas. I then started going to Wax Candy and while they would get all the hair, they would also leave behind a lot of wax, which is simply annoying. Nobody wants to drive home feeling like they're sticking to parts of their car. I had a simply lovely experience at Arigato Beauty; the gal who did my waxing was very professional, easy to talk to, and gave me my first bikini wax! She ended each section with olive oil and then aloe, which was absolutely delightful. I will definitely be back.

I chose the Reset and Restore Facial Package for me and my girlfriend. The only thing is that you cannot go at the same time. This place is located inside a Chiropractic office, so don't worry if you think you are in the wrong place. When we walked inside, Kelly greeted us with her bubbly personality. She walked us inside the room where we were shocked to see a personalized message. It was incredibly thoughtful and cute with just this small gesture. We got two small water bottles too. My girlfriend went first, and when she came out, she looked like she was astounded. Next it was my turn! This was my first ever facial, so I did not know what to expect. When you first lay down, there are light projections on the ceiling that makes it seem like you're being transported to another dimension. The blue, aqua wavy lights puts you into a calming state. The entire process takes approximately an hour. And every single moment was relaxing. From the upper-body massage to the face exfoliation, everything felt rejuvenated. My favorite part was the hydro jelly mask. The intense cooling sensation of the mask put me the sleep. I don't know how long I fell asleep for, but it was one of the best naps I have had in a while. This is one facial that you will not want to miss! Thank you Kelly again for the wonderful experience.

I got the rejuvenation citrus jelly mask or something ( I think the price point for this service was about $65)...giiiirl whatever it was it definitely rejuvenated my dull skin! I also noticed my pores were smaller and my face was baby bum soft! She did such an amazing job..and does a clavicle to scalp massage that was super bomb! I had a great time and an amazing experience from when I got there until I left. She never pushed me to do more services like how other beauty places are. I appreciate and love that she's her own boss, I can tell she's very passionate as well as cares for her clients. I definitely will be back and will send friends and family to her for a bit of "me" time. Would recommend 10/10. PS. She does facials for men too!

Since I paid using ClassPass, it came out to about $52 instead. Parking was super easy - they have a private lot in the back. The procedure had an extraction process before the microdermabrasion. The only down side was their finishing SPF moisturizer had almonds. Since I'm allergic to almonds, I couldn't have it and they didn't have a different kind of moisturizer. She told the owner, since I was the 3rd client she's had that had the same allergy, but has still not received the new moisturizer since their Beverly Hills office was so busy. Other than that, the entire experience was nice. Samara gave me tips on how I can improve my skincare routine and improve my skin complexion. She made me very comfortable and even gave me a gentle head and neck massage. Instead of the moisturizer, she gave put vitamin C serum with hyaluronic acid instead.
