I did the house facial with Nicole. Great convo about my personal skin history up top. She like MASSAGES your face. It was like the perfect pressure IMO.

Having had pretty significant acne in my youth, I'm precious about my derm approved products. Nicole was like would be cool if I could have sat in home care and I understand so you tell me when you are ready. This is also how I would like that handled. So overall, great facial and easy to talk to Nicole!

She's professional but also really kind and easy to talk to. The whole experience felt relaxing and personal. It's the perfect spot if you want to treat yourself or even give as a gift. I'd definitely come back again.

You really do get what you pay for, and after my appointment with her, the price is MORE than fair for what you get. She was so friendly, so welcoming, and made me feel so comfortable. As someone who has gotten waxed a long time, I can appreciate that, but I can only imagine what it would be like going to her for the first time, probably one of the best experiences! Highly, highly recommend.

Marina offers online scheduling and she really does book out at least a month in advance. You can, however, find last minute appointments if you really stalk her online scheduling site. I see Marina for a brazilian, inner thigh, and eyebrow wax. Not only is Marina meticulous and thorough but she is FAST. Like, less than 20 minutes and your brazilian is finito! She makes an ordinarily painful process absolute painless. Going to see Marina is like going to hang out with a girlfriend who just happens to be a master at waxing. Her pricing is very reasonable for the quality of service she consistently provides. Go check her out.. you won't regret it!

The ladies ask what you want, do it in silence, and off you go. If you're a chatty person, you may not like that, so take it for what it's worth. The price recently went up a couple of dollars (I think it's $14), but it's well worth it to me.

I prefer booking online rather than over the phone and was happy that they have the online option. Next, the location is very close to highway 170 so it's not hard to find and there are other establishments nearby so if you fancy some shopping or food, there are options! The location itself is very welcoming and cozy. Everyone was friendly and respectful. I was greeted soon as I walked in and was accommodated. I didn't have to wait long as well since I had an appointment at 4:30 and soon as I was checked in, my wax specialist came to get me. Now on to the actual process itself. Due to the horror stories I've read online, I had this idea in my head that it's going to be so painful and horrible. But I was dead wrong!!! My wax specialist, JASMINE, is phenomenal! She walked me through the whole process and kept talking to me while she was waxing to get my mind off of what's happening. Not to mention, I'm currently 24 weeks pregnant and she was very careful with how she worked with me. She answered all the questions I have and Made me feel very comfortable. Pricing I would say is fair. The regular price is $54 plus tip. They have a promo for first time waxers where you get your first wax for free. I would definitely go back regularly.

It's so important such that I had put off getting my brows threaded (something I used to do ~monthly) since moving here many months ago. Anything less than perfect ratings was not a ringing endorsement for me, so I kept toughing it out until I found myself back in California. Unfortunately, they had grown a bit out of control and I redid my research out of desperation. Not sure why it didn't pop up for me before, but Glow Studio was a diamond in the rough. It had perfect reviews and they seemed like they knew what they were doing. I can, in fact, now confirm that Emily is an absolute goddess and my brows are saved. I got my brows and upper lip waxed for $35, which is pretty standard pricing. The studio is super cute and clean, and it was such a well-cultivated space that I felt relaxed just being there. The process was seamless, and I felt comfortable with Emily doing what she felt was best for my brows. They came out perfectly -- there was clearly cleaning that was done, they're not thin, and the length was maintained. The waxing process took 10-15 minutes and was not painful. I feel the need to talk about Emily, too. First off, she's got the best vibes and is so easy to talk to. She truly knows what she's doing and has your best interest at heart (she will not let you ruin your brows over some ephemeral trend, girlfriend). She thoroughly walks you through the process and explains the whys of things to you (e.g. why you need to avoid retinol and AHAs leading up to a wax sesh). She is so knowledgeable and confident that it's impossible to not trust her. She's so careful and good at what she does, and I can't imagine going anywhere else in this city. I booked online a few days in advance, and it was a straightforward process. You put in a request for when you'd like to come in and then it gets confirmed. Emily personally texted me the morning of with clear instructions on how to get there and was accommodating to me running a few minutes late. There are plenty of other services available, and I'm beyond excited to come back for a facial and more. Cannot recommend Glow Studio enough; am super grateful to Emily for making my entire day, honestly.

My face is feeling softer and moisturized than ever and I will definitely, definitely go back. The only downside is the studio itself is pretty hard to navigate/enter. Make sure to literally use the other door--left door. I kinda struggled and thought there was another entrace and I felt like an idiot.
