I have been going to Christina for the last couple years to have Brazilian sugaring treatments…read moresince she was in a salon near Moonlight Beach... and I hope she always stays in town because I can't imagine going to anyone else! The new salon,which has been open for a couple weeks now, is such a better location! It's newer, has fresh floors and paint, and is more spacious which makes me feel even more comfortable getting my sugaring done. Since her move to this location, her Brazilian sugaring service is just as great. I have not yet had a spa or facial service, but I look forward to trying them someday. For anyone wondering how sugaring is different than waxing, you really ought to just try it. I have a thicker hair texture and, since switching to sugaring, I have fewer ingrown hairs and slower growth. By the way, if you do have any difficult ingrown hairs, let Christina know and she may be able to extract them for you. :) So happy for their move to this beautiful new place.

Ok Len is AMAZING! I happened upon her by chance and was a little apprehensive about somebody "new" waxing my brows. When it was all said and done all I could think of was "I have ARRIVED"! The shape of my brows were a perfect fit for my face. I am so happy with Len not just for her skill as an esthetician but for her professionalism and fresh face approach...absolutely no turning back! read more
