I've been seeing Nina for electrolysis for the past year and I'm so happy with the results!! In my consultation, Nina was extremely thorough in explaining the process. I never have difficulty scheduling an appointment that works for my schedule, and Nina has been very accommodating on the few occasions I've needed to reschedule. I 100% recommend choosing Blush for your electrolysis journey!! read more

My elderly friend who is disabled physically and hard of hearing has been getting electrolysis done here by Nina and Mary, and they are wonderful! They are very helpful and patient with her slower moving and communication issues, and they do excellent work. I truly appreciate their kindness and professionalism here at Blush! Plus it is clean and smells nice read more

This was honestly the most thorough facial I've had in a long time! I had a Hydrafacial which included extractions and dermaplaning, and my skin felt incredibly healthy, fresh, and bright afterward. I've gotten multiple compliments on my skin since then! Nina is amazing--she really knows what she's doing. I'll definitely be back...in fact, I've already booked my next facial! Highly recommend! read more

I've been going to Blush for electrolysis since June 2025, and I'm so happy with my results. Nina is knowledgeable, welcoming, and always happy to answer questions. She's also easy to reach by text if I have questions between appointments. I noticed results quickly, and my appointments gradually became shorter as treatment progressed. I've also had a facial at Blush, and it was wonderful. I highly recommend Nina for both electrolysis and skincare! read more

I have to write a pre and post review because I have to encourage you to finally take that step towards electrolysis hair removal! Don't wait any long and look no further, you've found the best technicians in the field - truly. Nina, Niki, and Mary hold the utmost professionalism and make you feel comfortable immediately. They're there to answer your questions and practice patience as you take your journey to finally being hair-free. Keep in mind, it took me five years to finally make an appointment after a traumatizing laser hair removal experience that left me with coarse facial hair. It was incredibly painful and inconsistent and I was going to a credited and well-known spa in Chicago. It got so bad that I was at the point to where I had to shave daily for the past couple years and it was effecting my skin - causing ingrown hairs, discoloration, dryness, etc. And it also affected my confidence greatly. I emailed Blush on a Saturday and got a response pretty quickly from the owner Nina. We exchanged a few texts and scheduled my consult from there. She also booked me for an hour of electrolysis immediately after and it was the best decision. She talked me through my nerves and explained the process in details - no questions left unanswered. The pain was much more manageable than the gimmick of painless laser. There are always more sensitive areas than others, but overall, I'm able to lay for two hours without needing a break. I'll admit, the 5% Lidocaine helps a lot and so does Nina's gentle hand. I have now completed 10.5 hours and am almost done with a full pass over my face. The process can be long and tedious. It can make you feel anxious but let me just tell you how excited and hopeful it makes you feel. I can't wait to post my results a year from now and be proud and feel so beautiful again. Thanks to Nina and the team, I'll be able to again. read more

Had a wonderful experhave PCOS and getting electrolysis done for a little over a year with Mary well definitely recommend

If you're thinking about getting electrolysis, this is the place! I've struggled with dark, thick hairs on my chin, neck, and upper lip for years. I used to carry tweezers everywhere, bleach, shave, I tried it all. It was one of my biggest insecurities, but Blush Electrolysis & Skincare has helped me so much. After a year of treatments, I've gone from every 2 to 3 weeks to once a month, and now I barely notice any hair growth between sessions. That's huge because I went from constantly thinking about my hair to rarely ever. I've seen both Nina and Mary and they're so kind, communicative, knowledgeable, and always make me feel comfortable. I was nervous about the pain at first, but it's really not bad and they always check in to make sure I'm okay. Now my appointments are a time to relax, listen to a podcast, and leave feeling so much more confident. I wish I had started sooner because it's one of the best things I've ever done for myself. If you're on the fence, take this as your sign to book a consultation! read more

I had such an amazing experience with Nina for electrolysis, truly a 10/10. She was meticulous and made sure not a single hair was missed. You can immediately tell she has 29 years of experience. I'm already booking my next visit for electrolysis and a Hydrafacial! read more

Mary is the absolute best! I have been going to her for about six months and the hair is practically gone and dark spots also nearly eliminated because I don't have to tweet anymore. She's efficient, personable and the prices are incredibly reasonable. I highly recommend Mary for safe and PERMANENT hair removal needs. read more

I am happy to write a review of my experiences at Blush Electrolysis & Skin Care (Blush) which is owned by Nina Catalano, a small business owner. I began receiving professional services from Blush a few years ago for electrolysis treatment and I am glad that I made the investment. I am pleased with the electrolysis services I have received by the owner Nina and her staff members Nikki and Mary. I recently returned to Blush to begin treatment for the removal of skin tags and to receive a facial which Nina provided. It was amazing! Blush has experienced growth since I began receiving services at the spa. Nina and her staff continue to provide excellent service at a new location complete with state of the art equipment and quality products. Blush, which is very relaxing and inviting, provides a variety of skin care services. Nina and her staff are professional, knowledgeable, friendly, caring and attentive to the needs of their guests. I appreciate that they take the time to educate their guests on the products used and the service provided. I highly recommend Blush for your skin care needs! I look forward to future skin care services provided by Nina and her staff. read more

I've been seeing Nina for electrolysis consultation and treatments since November 2022. I see her for roughly 8 hours a month since I have pretty severe bursitis thanks to PCOS. Nina does a fantastic job with not only treating the individual hairs but treating me as her client. She does everything she can to make sure I'm comfortable during an uncomfortable treatment- whether it's lowering the intensity of the treatment or allowing for more breaks, anything that helps me out! Additionally she pays attention to the products I use, but is never pushy with her own recommendations. If I ask questions about products, she's able to provide insight and offer suggestions, but always waits for me to invite her advice. Electrolysis requires a lot of patience and understanding, both of which Nina has in spades. I'm grateful I've found her and can tonight to work with her. read more

Nikki was incredibly talented at removing so much hair on my face via electrolysis. She's so good! Definitely recommend Nikki and Blush in general. The office space is so elegant and clean! The vibes are friendly and professional. read more

I cannot say enough amazing things about Blush. I have been working with Nina for about 9 months now, I started with 1-3 hours a week to really get through the bulk in the first couple months of electrolysis and now I'm down to about 1 hour every or every other week. My results have been life changing and I'm not even being dramatic. Nina is incredible and truly takes her time with explaining everything and anything you need to know, is meticulous in not missing a single hair and gets excited when you're excited! I would recommend Blush to literally anyone looking to do electrolysis, I even convinced my sister to start - she sees Nikki, whom she absolutely loves as well! :). If you were ever on the fence, please use this as your sign to start today and head to blush ASAP. You will not be disappointed! read more

I don't want to write this review because you guys will book up all of their availability. LOL BUT! My experience was so great I have to share. First of all I got lost. Not sure how with GPS and all but yeah, got there early only to get lost and become late for my appointment. Niki, was so nice and welcoming that my frazzle subsided immediately as I entered. Dermalogica Products were used on me. You know how you go to a spa and they want to add on all this stuff after your treatment? Niki was not like that. She recommended an item and didn't push me to get it. I ended up getting that and more! I have two friends that have made appointments since my visit two days ago because I can't shut up. My skin feels and looks amazing. I got the diamond microdermabrasion treatment, LED treatment, and extractions. So relaxing. All of the products she applied were explained as she applied them. Niki started the visit Talked her head off and we laughed a lot. Such a fun visit. I got up feeling so relaxed and recharged. I recommend you try Blush! read more

I set up my first appointment with Nina back in August 2020 for electrolysis. I was really nervous it would not work because my hair was growing really quick and thick all under my chin and neck and on the sides as well. I saw a difference right away ! I followed the care instructions, what not to do in between sessions and all of that. I think following those instructions helped a lot. It does not hurt, there were many times I wanted to fall asleep haha but I kept myself awake. Nina was very nice and sweet and I loved her vibes. My last appointment was in November 2022. I was very happy with how I did not have any hair anymore. I stopped going since that last appointment because of health reasons. Then in 2023 I was finally diagnosed with PCOS. And I have been dealing with some other health problems since then. But now I have been feeling better and have been getting back to doing things I used to. I WILL be going back to Nina and making an appointment for the little hairs k have left (they are not noticeable at all but I notice them at times haha). I have also been wanting to try facials and other stuff they offer so I will be doing that. I am so excited to return :) read more

Excited for my next appointment. Friendly, professional and helpful!! Had a great hydrafacial with Mary!! My skin feels great. read more

I have had 2 (long sessions2+hrs) to remove this unwanted facial hair. I do have a high tolerance for the electrolysis sessions as I fall asleep. Nina is a total professional and very focused on getting you the results you deserve as quickly as possible. The office is set up so nicely and is very clean and organized. I highly recommend Blush! read more

Nina is amazing! I did some research online and came across her page. Nina was so accommodating, very knowledgable, gentle and took the time to thoroughly answers my questions. She walked me through the entire process and explained how my treatment is customized to the current status of my skin. I did the Hydrafacial, eyelash tint & brow waxing. Everything was wonderful. My skin feels amazing! So soft, smooth, hydrated and totally worth the price! I feel such a difference in my skin and will definitely be making monthly appointments with her and have recommended her services for friends. Blush's space is extremely clean, relaxing and just the place I want to be when I need a good facial treatment! I Would highly recommend Nina as your go to esthetician! read more

I have been seeing Mary at Blush for electrolysis, hydra-facials, microneedling, waxing, brow tinting, you name it, for over a year. Mary is an incredible esthetician who takes her time to get to know her client's concerns and goals. With any procedure, she consistently checks in with you and makes any adjustments to ensure your comfort throughout the session. Since working with her, my skin has transformed, and on some days I cannot believe how good it looks! Mary is always open to discussing other services or products that might interest me but is never pushy. She is incredibly easy to talk to, making sessions that are sometimes over a few hours fly by. The Blush facility is always spotless, organized, and inviting. The other Blush staff members are always super friendly. For electrolysis, a procedure that is sometimes uncomfortable, you can usually hear laughter from clients within the space. This indicates the type of relationships the staff have with their clients. I 100% recommend Blush for your electrolysis and skincare needs. read more

Blush is a hidden gem tucked away on a side street in Ukrainian Village . Mary is my esthetician, and she's awesome! I sought Blush out for electrolysis, but I am now booking facials and micro-needling too. Mary is very professional and knowledgeable: she cares about her clients. She's very engaging, and she's aces at her job. Blush is a super clean and inviting environment. Everyone is friendly and welcoming. I look forward to my weekly appointment. Final word is that my skin has never looked better! read more

I've been coming to Blush for years. Electrolysis was perfect for me, as my hair is pretty blond and no other treatments worked. Got rid of all unwanted facial hair a few years back, but recently came back for a touch up (hormonal changes after giving birth caused some additional growth). Tried facials as well and loved the results. If you have no idea where to start with facials - would highly recommend this place. My first treatment was customized just for my skin needs and everything was explained in detail. Love how professional and caring this place is. read more

As a guy who has been plucking hairs from the middle of my eyebrows since puberty, finding Nina and making the leap to electrolysis has been a godsend. I wish I had done this years ago! Gentleman, take the leap. It's so much better than waxing, less painful and permanent after a few sessions. Not to mention, if you're working from home right now, it's the perfect time to do it. Nina is so professional, kind and her new location is beautiful, clean and bright. She also gives THE BEST facials. read more

I had wanted to have electrolysis after years of shaving and waxing neither which gave me the hair (and care) free legs I so longed for. My initial consult with the owner Nina was informative, relaxing and made me feel comfortable moving forward with the process. The spas many years in the business also helped to seal the deal. Mary, who has provided my treatments for months, is experienced, professional, knowledgeable, helpful, flexible and friendly! I know I am in good hands with my procedure. The hair on my legs is rapidly disappearing and I couldn't be more excited. read more

Wow, this place is amazing. Mary is the the most amazing facial and electrologist. I was so relaxed, she answered all of my questions and sent me home with a skin care routine! She was so pleasant and friendly. I would highly recommend Blush and Mary for all your skin care needs. 10 stars!! read more

I have been doing electrolysis with Nina for a few months now and it's been great! Nina is always professional and does what she can to ensure I'm comfortable during the service. They are also very flexible with scheduling appointments. read more

I love Blush! I have been a customer of Nina's for over 10 years and always leave with a smile on my face. I make appointments for facials, electrolysis, and waxing, Blush never disappoints!! read more

Mary is the best. Both for facials and electrolysis - I've been coming to her for over a year. She does absolutely wonderful work and is caring, nice and funny. Thankful to have found her and would absolutely recommend her. read more

Getting electrolysis done at Blush has been such a pleasure! During my first session, the owner, Nina, thoroughly walked me through everything to expect and helped map out exactly how to schedule my electrolysis appointments to make sure I had the most effective and efficient hair removal. I've been going to Blush since October 2022, and now in October 2023 I see maybe a 75%+ reduction in my hair growth, which I'm so happy about. And what does grow comes in much slower and thinner. Blush is a very clean, calm, and nicely decorated salon. I go to all three electrologists (Nina, Niki, and Mary), and they are all excellent. They will make sure to check in on your pain level and decrease the intensity. It is very quick and easy to set up appointments online, and they offer great discounts for package purchases, as well as specials. If you can't find an appointment to fit your schedule, sign up for the waitlist and they'll let you know if they have an opening available. Niki, Nina, and Mary are all very nice and friendly and clearly are close friends; it is a fun environment witnessing their work banter. I always feel relaxed and taken care of with them. They are chill and personable, and hilarious! I highly recommend Blush and wish I'd discovered them sooner! read more

Blush Skincare is my go-to place for my monthly facials. It's a relaxing 60 minutes I look forward to every month thanks to Niki. She has been keeping my skin in top notch shape for years. She is an experienced facialist who is on top of the latest in skincare. I highly recommend her ....she will make you skin look amazing! read more

If I could give 10 stars, I would! Mary at Blush Electrolysis & Skin Care gave me the best HydraFacial and overall experience! From the beginning of my experience at Blush, Mary listened to my concerns and she was actually the person who recommended the HydraFacial. I followed her recommendation and I was not disappointed! Throughout the years I have sporadically received facial treatments, but never have been consistent. I decided to try something new and I cannot express how delighted I am of this decision. As with other facials I have received, my overall skin looked healthier and vibrant; however, with this technique, I feel my fine lines have diminished and have received better results than simply using serums alone. As someone in my 40s, turning back the clock is important to me, so this is a treatment I will regularly work into my skincare routine. If you have an opportunity to get a HydraFacial by Mary, do yourself a favor and book an appointment! read more

From facials to electrolysis this is the place to go. Mary is wonderful to work with! Scheduling is flexible and convenient and the actual facility is clean and cute. read more

I love this place everybody was so nice . The spa is so clean and inviting. I got a Brazilian wax with Nina she was so professional and also making you feel comfortable at the same time . I would highly recommend going there. I Felt very safe and comfortable there I want to go back and try getting electrolysis instead of waxing. read more

I don't care what others are saying but I'm NEVER going back again. I've done facials and electrolysis here before but each time leaving my skin red, blotchy and irritated! I had no idea what they did but one time they left my eyes burning for days. I did not feel very safe and comfortable being in here either during this time because you can literally walk pass someone up close w/o 6 feet apart in this confined basement. They could have spaced clients further out between appointments. I saw someone wearing a mask down her chin one time which made me extremely uncomfortable. Time to look elsewhere and there're def other places that do a better job. read more

I've been seeing Nina for over three months now for the hair in between my eyebrows and around them. She is very professional, friendly, and does excellent work. Electryolysis is a process, as you have to be patient with the hair follicle growth cycles, but the process is absolutely worth it. I was tweezing nearly every day and just getting really tired of all the time and effort. Electrolysis has been a really great investment and I highly recommend it. Note - I've never tried any other hair removal methods, but I read that laser wasn't always permanent and I felt like electrolysis fit my needs better (and budget) read more

I come here every month!! Mary is my favorite ever! she does the best hyro facials!! my skin feels amazing afterwards and I love the dewy glowy look that she is able to get for me every single time!!! Seriously can't go wrong!! The atmosphere of the spa is super cute, cozy and clean!! Very relaxing spa music!! come here and mention my name (Marisa) and get 20% off your first visit!! if you keep referring people they always give you perks and discounts!! street parking always available.... and free which also a great plus when you are used to city parking rates! read more

Blush is a wonderful and friendly place to receive high quality care! Staff are kind, flexible and talented, scheduling is easy, and prices are reasonable. Would highly recommend! read more

This is the place to go for all of your skin care needs .. Nina and her team are amazing. my skin has never felt and looked better 10/10

I have fair skin and dark hair and, despite being called an "ideal candidate," I have been very disappointed with laser hair removal -- simply, it hasn't worked. My experience was validated when I researched electrolysis and learned, from Blush's website, that it is the only FDA approved method for permanent hair removal. Although compared to laser the treatment is an investment, I have been so pleased with the results so far. An electrolysis session actually removes the hair so you feel better after each one. Nina and Nikki are friendly, responsive, and knowledgeable, and walk you through each step of the procedure. They can adjust the strength of the treatment to your comfort level and also offer packages to help with the cost. At last, a real solution! read more

Nina is absolutely the best. I always walk out happy with every service. She does everything to make you feel safe during the pandemic. My temperature was taken as soon as I walked in. There is never any clients waiting in the waiting area. The room was very clean and the bathroom cleaned after each use. The service I received was the best! read more

Since beginning my hair removal journey with Nina at Blush I have seen significant improvements in not only the thickness of my neck and chin hair but also elimination of ingrown hairs. I would highly recommend if you have dark skin and are looking to start your hair removal journey. read more
