I had a Brazilian wax and half leg wax, and Natalie was very meticulous and careful to don't cause me discomfort. (Which btw was minimal). Her studio was impeccable, private, calm, in a perfect location and beautiful building. 100% recommended.

I've been going to Everbare for about three years and I recommend them very highly. Irine and…read moreNatalia are always friendly, professional and pleasant to spend time with. The rates seem reasonable to me and they take the time to do the work well, but they're also quite efficient. I've never had to wait past my appointment time and despite having a fair amount of waxing done I'm usually out of there in half an hour. They are on the sixth floor of their building and coming and going feels very anonymous. Probably not important to most people, but if you want to wax on the DL that's another reason to go, LOL. Seriously, they're great at what they do and I recommend them highly.

As a first-timer, I didn't know what to expect, and she could not have made the experience easier. From the minute i walked in, I felt like I had known her forever and the process was seamless. Highly recommend. Could not say enough good things.

When I first wanted to go get a Brazilian, I was coming in there with a lot of trauma and I was…read morereally worried about how this was going to go. The word on the street was that Karen Golden was the person you went to if you were coming into this from a place of trauma and the street wasn't kidding. If you're kind of a hot mess, you won't find a more compassionate person. She's not judgy, she's not unkind, and she makes the process of ripping your pubic hair out of your body as not-awful as it possibly could be. The room is clean and smells nice. Her assistant Lara is also as kind as can be. She takes cash or checks and everyone is understanding if you don't come by on the regular or have to cancel at the last minute (I disappear for months at a time: my income ain't what it used to be) but if you can only go to one place for the rest of your life for waxing, this is where you should go. She's the best.

I have been a loyal client of Lavinia's for 15 years. Her spa is very clean and relaxing, the…read morereceptionist is attentive and easy to schedule with, its walking distance from Coolidge Corner (a plus for me) and steps from the Brookline Village T stop, and if you drive there is ample parking in a public lot a block away. I had my very first facial with her when I was in my 20's, and she has been the only person I allow to tend to my skin on a regular basis. She uses fabulous organic products and extracts like a pro--she's ruthless!! She leaves no pore untouched. Which is exactly why I go for facials, to get the gunk of city life/hard workouts out of there! I appreciate this level of attention, as I've had facials at other spas while traveling for work or on vacation, and I've felt they were lacking. Lavinia doesn't hard sell her product, which I appreciate, because, honestly, it sells itself! Her face cream is amazing. Its worth the trip over just to try it. Seriously. Go try it. She also does my eyebrow and Brazilian waxing. She takes time to shape your brows to complement YOUR own face. She doesn't cookie-cutter-one-size-fits-all her eyebrow waxes. I even brought my sister up from NY several years ago to have Lavinia help her with an over-tweezing problem she had. Lavinia helped her to see that a fuller more natural brow-line looks much, much better than an over-tweezed one, and showed her how to tend to her brows while they were growing in. My sister still talks about it! As far as Brazilians go, Lavinia is the best. She uses hard wax in large patches, no strips! She manages to make the experience fast and as pain-free as she can, all while being diligent not to miss a single hair. She will fill you in on how not to get in-growns (Read: EXFOLIATE!!) and keep you occupied with small talk while she "down there". All-in-all, its as pleasant an experience as you can hope for. If she happens to be booked, I have seen and been equally as happy with the other ladies at her spa. They take equal amounts of care with your skin, and truly seem to take pride in making you look your best.

Lavinia is genuinely sweet and clearly works hard. She corrected a mistake made by my dermatologist…read morewhich I was truly grateful for, and when I raised a concern after my visit she gave me a complimentary product, which was a kind gesture that did not go unnoticed. That said, the experience itself had some issues worth mentioning. I noticed blood and product residue on the light that was positioned directly in my face during the facial. When I brought up the cleanliness concern she seemed unaware of what I was referring to. I also had product in my eye for the majority of the time I was supposed to be relaxing, the door was left open allowing the steam to escape, and she was chatting with another guest during my session. I did not find the facial relaxing all. The facial was also on the expensive side for the amount of product used and the time spent. I think with some adjustments to sanitation protocols and focus during sessions, Lavinia could be exceptional.

I cannot say enough good things about Shannon and her business, Noel Herbal Skincare…read more I had my first facial with her over the summer and it was by far one of the most relaxing and effective facials I've ever had. As a person, Shannon is a true professional and is an expert when it comes to skincare and using natural products to promote wellness. She has such a gentle, calming spirit, and you feel at ease as soon as you are in her presence. When I visited Shannon, I received the Moon Facial, which was very restorative and left my skin feeling beautiful. It involves extractions and steam, but in the most gentle way possible. I'm personally pretty sensitive to steam, so I asked Shannon if it could be lowered and she immediately took care of it and was great about checking in during the whole process to make sure I was comfortable. The products she used didn't irritate my skin at all and really made a difference. My mom has also visited Shannon for facials many times, and tells me that her "happy place" is being at Noel Herbal Skincare, receiving the most amazing facial. I completely agree. Cheers to many more visits to the happy place.

All the products felt so good on my skin. When masks were sitting on my face Shannon did neck, shoulder and arm massages. I used the restroom when I was done and I was shocked when I looked in the mirror. My skin looked so healthy. A few months ago I did a hydro facial and my skin did not look like this when I left. Going forward I am going to skip those spa's and do a facial with Shannon.

Again, amazing service and a wonderful facial. I have had problem skin since I was a teenager.

Honestly, I was laughing because it was ticklish sometimes. The only thing that was a little tougher for me was the eyebrow threading, cause I've never done that before, and my skin is thinner there.
