This is the place to get your waxing done. The owner is a sweet lovely lady. The bathroom is clean…read moreand wet wipes are provided in case you need to freshen up. 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.

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!

I've never waxed my legs in all my life, but needed to get down to business before vacation. Kari…read morewas able to fit me in last minute. Her place on Clinton Rd is so charming! It's a tastefully decorated house across from Gilroy, Kernan & Gilroy. The rooms are spacious and private. Kari explained the whole process to me, and even forewarned me that the waxing might not remove all my hair because of the stage of growth I was in. I went ahead with it anyhow since I was leaving the next day. Full disclosure: I have very sensitive skin. So much so that if I get a cut on my leg I will usually have a mark/scar for years afterward. I was pretty nervous that waxing would just leave my legs red and bumpy. Not so! I had some slight redness for an hour afterward and then it was gone. Smooth legs, satisfied customer.

Ive been going to Kari for almost a year now. If you need a good wax - under arms, legs, bikini, Brazilian, etc. (Women and men) you must come here!

The shaping was better than other places I have tried and she actually measured my brows/face to keep the ratios right.

I apologized again and again and told her it was a technical error, and she keeps repeating her frustration at me, while she's laying into me, she uses severe heat and pulls at my roots. 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 am beyond disappointed with this place. I work seven days a week, so when I book an appointment,…read moreit's a big deal for me to fit it into my schedule. This salon clearly does not care about that. First off, no one ever answers the phone. There is no way to get a hold of the owner, and communication is non-existent. My stylist, Lucky, already canceled on me in December for a funeral, which I understood. But then in January, I rescheduled for a Wednesday, and a day later, I saw my appointment was changed in the system without anyone even telling me. When I finally got a hold of her, she said she was "on a movie set." I had specifically picked "Any Staff" when I booked so that I wouldn't have to deal with one person's schedule, so why was I being told I couldn't be seen? If you're busy on a movie set, you shouldn't be taking bookings from the public. When she finally "fitted me in" at 7 PM, the whole thing was half-assed and rushed. I didn't even get to pick my own glaze color; she just did whatever. I told her I was happy to finally get my split ends under control, and she just dismissed me and said, "everyone has split ends." I go to a salon for the experience and to feel seen, but I felt like I was just a nuisance she was trying to hurry up and finish. To make it even worse, my partner's appointment was also canceled last minute because the other stylist didn't have a babysitter. It's just constant excuses here. Then, when it was finally time to go, Lucky didn't even seem to know how to collect the payment. It was so disorganized and awkward. I still gave a 15% tip because I'm a responsible person and I value labor, but honestly, I feel like I was bamboozled. I could have stayed home and done the glaze and the cut myself for way less money and zero headache. I'm done with professional salons if this is how they treat people. I won't be back.
