Arielle made me feel right at home. She's very kind and easy to talk to. What the others have written is correct-- compared to waxing I did not feel any pain at all during the process!

Arielle was very careful with my brow tint to cover some grays and it looks very natural (not super black as other estheticians have done in the past). I highly recommend Arielle!

Unfortunately I could not find a sitter for my 1 and 3 year old and she was so calm and patient with me and them. I was so comfortable. She has great bed side manner and is very gentle and assuring. She was so easy to talk to as if you were talking to a close friend. You can tell she try's her best and truly cares about your happiness. My eyelashes and brows turned out great. I do have a disorder called trichotillomania, which caused me to pulled out my eyelashes for various reasons consciously and unconsciously. She had to create a bridge/fan on my bald spots and you would have never know . I go for more of the natural look and I got so many compliments. I had them done right before my third baby and she made me so much more confident when bumming around the house with the kids. I also got sugared and her pulling technique was so swift I felt little pain and she made sure I was ok to keep going unlike other experiences I had where I felt they were rushed to remove the hair and get to the next client. The process was amazing as far as ripping hair out of your body goes lol. I won't use anyone else. She is the best! Pictures are of just lashes.

Fantastic salon! I've been going to Jess for waxing for a dozen years and to Caitlin for haircuts…read morefor about two years. Both do amazing work. Front desk staff is highly professional and friendly and the salon is always immaculate. I am almost always able to get the time slot I need for back-to-back appointments with them, and the best part is they never, ever run late. I don't live in Mill Valley and I'm very busy with work, and I cannot stand it when I drive for half an hour to get to an appointment and the stylist is running half an hour late. This never happens at Milvali. They have a wide variety of high-quality products for sale but they don't push product. They always offer coffee or water, and they have little treats in the rooms. It's a friendly, community- and customer-oriented professional salon with a positive energy and friendly staff. Which is why they're very busy.

Milvali salon feels more like a assembly line chop shop vs high end salon experience. I've had two…read moreservices here and both fell short. I had a haircut here, which I ended up waiting for the stylist for over an hour. When she finally saw me she said it was bc some scraggly haired woman with her extensions came in last minute demanding she fix her hair, and so she spent hours re bonding (or whatever the term is?) the hair. I'm not trying to be mean here, but the woman had very fine blonde hair that was bob length and got hair down to her waist. My aside here is ...ladies...can we just love what we have and maybe do any enhancements in moderation instead of totally going overboard with the extensions down to our tushies?! And, yes, I was rightfully upset bc I had an appt and this woman did not, yet I had to wait for my scheduled service?? Totally doesn't make sense. The kicker was when I told the stylist she should have rescheduled me if she was going to be so late, and her response was that she didn't want to lose another customer that day. Welp, she definitely lost me as a customer, because I'd never go back to her. The cut was okay but overall a mind boggling experience and a waste of my time. The other experience I had was getting a facial from an aesthetician. I specifically let her know I didn't want any animal tested or animal products on my skin. And yet, she slapped collagen on my face (and it wasn't marine collagen). She also didn't do any arm or neck massage, which is odd because with all the facials I've had at other places, I've always had a light massage while a mask is on my face. When I asked about the massage, the aesthetician said she leaves the room while my mask is on vs doing a massage. Additionally, she kept using the term "anti-aging", despite me sharing that I'm not against what natural process happens to us all, and I don't like language that makes us hate a natural process. I think (especially in a spa or salon setting) there are far more positive terms we can use to describe caring for our skin. Rejuvenating, refreshing, aging with grace, naturally enhancing...sounds far more from a place of love and acceptance for ourselves than "anti-aging". From both of these less than par experiences, my take away was that I was in a low caliber salon, and not a specialized, leveled up establishment. It's been a year and I haven't returned, nor would I recommend this place to others.
