Best…read more I am already regretting writing this review because I know it will mean that getting an appointment with this already oh-so-popular lady will be even harder but I just had to let yall in on the fact that Avivah Wax Spa is truly the best of the best.. and this is coming from someone who has a lot of unwanted hair thanks to my Indian heritage. 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!

Her pricing is very fair especially for the quality of work that she does and I love, love, love that she offers online books so I can sit and compare my 7 calendars with hers. Very strongly recommend booking in advance because she is typically booked out a month ahead though sometimes you can find last minute openings if you check back intermittently throughout the day.

That's why I booked a Brazilian with Piper, who had the most reviews and came highly recommended. When I arrived, however, I was switched to a different technician without being told in advance. Unfortunately, the service was not done properly. Multiple areas were missed, the technique was rough (including re-waxing the same sensitive area), and I left with significant irritation and bumps. I'm 15 weeks pregnant, and I had chosen this spa specifically because I wanted to feel safe and confident in the provider's experience. I reached out afterward and was offered a "touch-up," but with the irritation I experienced, it didn't feel safe to continue. This was not the level of care or professionalism I expected, and I'm really disappointed given the spa's previous reputation.

She takes the time to explain every step of the facial process which made me feel really comfortable. You can tell she actually knows her stuff and cares about what she's doing.

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.

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!

Beware of Aquarius Health & Wellness…read more My wife and I have been clients for around seven months and booked couples massages monthly. Until now, the massage quality and overall experience had been good, and we consistently tipped well, typically $100 per massage therapist. We had a last-minute situation come up and missed our scheduled couples massage. Afterward, Aquarius charged us a total of $720, split into two separate transactions: $300 and $420. I understand that businesses have cancellation policies. However, charging loyal monthly clients $720 after one missed appointment feels excessive, aggressive, and completely out of proportion to the situation. For us, this destroyed the goodwill they had built over months of repeat business. We will not be returning. I am filing complaints with the appropriate agencies in Missouri and I would strongly caution others to be very careful before doing business with Aquarius Health & Wellness. I also have serious concerns about their card-on-file and customer data practices. Since they were able to charge our card after the missed appointment, customers should ask how their payment information is being stored, who has access to it, and whether Aquarius Health & Wellness is properly following applicable data security and payment card compliance standards. The massage experience itself was previously good. The way this was handled was not.
