Despite I had to rush out of there once my service was done, I really had a great experience. It was my first time at this location, and Sarah was absolutely amazing! She's just so sweet and she made the whole service easy. There wasn't much pain at all, and she really tries to make you feel as comfortable as possible. The best part is that she did the service fast! I really like that the most. She does a great job even in less amount of time. I definitely see myself coming back here ever few weeks to continue my waxing services :) read more

Customer service was top notch. The place was a little hard to find. So I was 30 mins late for my appointment. I had a groupon and was hell bent on traveling to Arlington from md during rush hour traffic..terrible idea. It took me 2.5 hours to get there! Both the aesthetician and the reception were so accomodating. They both told me to arrive safely and when I can. She was extremely fast and professional and thorough and it didn't hurt as much as other waxes. I will be a repeat customer...just not during rush hour. read more

The reviews are true. This experienced equally deserved 5 stars because Sarah was just amazing. First, she greets you with a bubbly smile and may possibly give you a hug. I'm a hugger so this instantly made me feel much more comfortable since I hadn't had a wax in a very long time. She was quick, thorough, she eased my pain, we laughed about how I might scream & before I knew it, I was done!!! I highly recommend visiting Sarah for all sorts of waxing services. You will probably walk away with the same smile she greeted you with... =) I'M COMING BACK! read more

Sarah was super sweet and really helped calm my nerves since my pain tolerance is super low. Probably the best waxing experience ever. I've only had 3 total and that's in the span of 6 years. If you've never gotten a wax before, I highly recommend getting your first wax here (and all your future waxing needs), it'll make the future ones feel less daunting. Thanks to Sarah, I don't dread getting waxed anymore. read more

I work in DC and live in Arlington but made a point to go out of my way to visit Sarah at Express Waxing. All the reviews are true and I am going to make a point to exclusively go back. I used the $5 for $10 deal and when I checked in through Yelp I got a 25% off deal that I'm going to use next time! read more

Best wax in the area! Quick and they do a great job! Def worth the wait too, I made the mistake of going somewhere else because I couldn't get an appt and definitely wished I hadn't done so! Book in advance read more

I've been going here for about a year. Mimi is the absolute best!!! Quick, clean, and gentle. Also more affordable than most other places. I'm never going anywhere else. read more

I love this place. They are so friendly and sweet! They do a fabulous job at a good price.

Sarah was amazing! Quick and efficient. She made you feel completely comfortable. To me, she wasn't too chatty. I would definitely recommend her to others and to those who are first timers. With the addition of the 20% yelp discount, you can't beat it! I'll be a regular for sure. read more

Great experience! The service was very quick and thorough. Yana was very professional and friendly. She made me feel very comfortable (others made me feel self-conscious about being slightly overweight.) I'm definitely going back, after all $70 for a full leg waxing is a really good price. read more

I've been here 2 or 3 times, and, unless I have a Groupon or special deal for another place, always go here. The service is quick and good at a reasonable price. read more

Mimi is a awesome! She was fast and efficient, showed me the waxed spots after she was done to make sure I was happy.

This is a no-frills waxing salon, but definitely gets the job done! Plan a little extra time to find parking (and to navigate; I had a tiny bit of trouble locating them). This was my first time getting waxed and the woman working really put me at ease. I was a little surprised they didn't offer disposable panties or anything, but I'll still come back here next time! read more

Rita was amazing for doing a Brazilian, pulls very fast and makes conversation so you're not focused on what's happening! Super sweet.

I'm so happy I found Sarah again! I used to go to her in Georgetown at Best Waxing Center and now she's so much more conveniently located in Ballston! I absolutely adore her and she's so good at what she does! Shes so clean and never double dips. I had my first ever Brazilian with her and she had a way of making me feel so comfortable and at ease and I've never looked back since then. I recommend anyone that needs anything waxed to visit Sarah. You won't be disappointed! read more

Sarah was EXCELLENT! The establishment wasn't what I expected but she was professional, clean, fast, and a complete sweet heart. This was the least painful waxing i have ever received (better than sugaring). She also took me day of. I requested an appointment online and she got back to me within minutes.I 100% recommend Sarah at Express Waxing. I am about to move out of Ballston, but I will make the trip to her from now on! read more

Sarah was wonderful, efficient, and incredibly accommodating. I was late to my appointment (new to the area...) but Sarah happily squeezed me in with none of the whining and scolding I've learned to expect in the DMV. She is professional, cheerful, and an exceptional talent in her field. I've never had a Brazilian so painless and fast - literally under 10 minutes! When I mentioned I was in the market for a pedicure as well, she offered me a wonderful discount and was able to book me right away with their on-site pedicurist, Angie, who was also wonderfully pleasant and did great work. All the highest marks, in every regard, for Express Waxing. read more

I've had Brazilian waxes before and I am STILL in shock over how much quicker and comparatively painless this one was! I had to wait in I95 traffic from/back to Quantico, but it was worth it! read more

Was looking for a place to get my legs and face waxed while I was in the area and came across this place. Sarah was really nice and she and another girl did a quick, thorough job. And I'm always a fan of places where you can book online. Little pricey though. I would return if I was ever in the area again, but I won't be a regular. read more

I didn't know it was possible to leave a waxing appointment smiling. Sarah is absolutely wonderful -- the perfect combo of excellent client service and waxing skills. The least painful and fastest wax experience I have ever had. After 4-5 years of bouncing around to different places in the DMV, I have *finally* found my go to place. read more

Sarah is AMAZING! I live in the district and go all the way out to Ballston because she's that professional, friendly and good at what she does.. Sarah is fast and meticulous which has led to consistently pain free waxes. Her rates are beyond reasonable, even cheap for what some salons charge in DC, and she NEVER double dips--A huge hygiene shirt cut that a lot of salons also take. I found sarah through living social, and have gone nowhere else since. read more

Wonderful! I have been going somewhere in DC religiously but decided to come here because of all the good reviews and its proximity to my apartment (love that I can avoid driving and parking in DC). Sarah is great in every aspect. Fast but also meticulous. I highly recommend and will continue to go back! read more

Sarah did a great job! I was getting ready to go on a cruise and signed up for several services. She was fast, professional, clean, and minimized the pain as much as possible. She's also very sweet and knowledgeable. I will definitely be going back. It can be tricky to find -- it is actually inside Salon Istanbul but just walk into the salon and ask for Express Waxing and they'll show you where to go. read more

Believe all of the hype, this place provided me with the best wax I have ever had. It's reasonably priced, quick, and sanitary (she used a clean stick every time she needed more wax). I will definitely be a repeat customer. read more

Dudes. I made an appointment yesterday with my LS coupon. I went into today for a wax and eyebrow threading. I've waxed many, many places throughout the States, and let me tell you. I have found my Holy Grail of waxing nirvana. Now, waxing hurts. But, miraculously, Sarah's method was the most painless waxing I'd ever experienced. Now, it wasn't pain free, but it wasn't the agonizing torture it usually is. Also, Sarah is super fast. Secondly, the eyebrow threading was spot on. She shaped up my brows in no time. Lovely people!! read more

Referred by a friend and have been twice now. Both times were great but the second time they gave me a frequent user card to earn a free waxing after my 5th use. Just wish I could've received it during my first visit. Guess beggars can't be choosers though. :) read more

Convenient location. Friendly people! Lin did my waxing and she was super kind and gentle.

Great technicians but expensive. My technician convinced me that bikini waxes are the way to go! (It was my first time.) Now I have to find someplace cheaper and hopefully the next one is as good as this place. read more

Having discovered this place thanks to positive Yelp reviews, I feel the need to pay it forward by contributing my own positive review. So happy to have discovered this place. Professional, quick and efficient, reasonably priced, and good at what they do. Have worked with both Sarah and Mimi. Both were great. Sarah is super friendly in addition to being very skilled. read more

I took off work early to make the an appointment I was told was the last available for a wax at 4:30. I arrive on time, but waited 15 minutes to be asked if it was okay that the 5pm appointment go before me. Disappointed that I had to wait. They were great when I got started. Very thorough. read more

Great service. Only 4 stars and not 5 because I couldn't use a pre-paid Yelp deal ($5 for $10) and a Yelp check-in % off together, even though I got two services. read more

I've been seeing Sarah for a Brazilian every single month for nearly 3 years. She is the best waxer. She's quick and fun to chat with. She also gives really good advice and won't up sell you with other services (Never ever asks about my eyebrows or other removal needs). Even though I'm moving 4 hours away, I plan on stopping in to see Sarah whenever I can! read more

As far as technicians I've only been to Sarah and Mimi for a female Brazilian wax. They were both equally great. The reviews for Sarah here on Yelp are the reason I began going to Express Waxing, and I haven't been disappointed yet. The treatment rooms are clean, and so are their waxing techniques. They DO NOT double dip!!! The pricing is pretty reasonable, and there is always a 10% off Brazilians coupon available on the Yelp app. The lady at the front desk is very friendly. Appointments are fairly easy to book on their website. I've been coming here for nearly 4 years now, and I have no intentions on switching salons. read more

This is the best place to get a brazilian wax. Sarah and Lin are fantastic. So fast, super nice and really pay attention to detail. They are also as gentle as can be with prep and cleanup. All of the waxers here use a technique that makes it significantly less painful than other places while also being super fast and thorough. They are also highly sanitary - no double-dipping, gloves, and they keep the wax warmers and pots drip-free. I like that they wear lab coats and offer online scheduling. Easy to park nearby and also close to a station. read more

I have found my new go to! Right away Sarah made me feel at ease with her friendly nature and knowledge. I was in desperate need of a wax, but even in that state this was one of the fastest and most thorough waxes I have gotten. I was very pleased and will definitely be coming back! read more

I called the day before and was very happy to get an appointment the next day at the exact time that I requested. Amazing. Simply amazing!!! I got full leg and underarms done yesterday and could not be more pleased. She made the entire experience very pleasant. Sara is super sweet and so fun to talk to. Not only does she do a great job, she's very quick and the procedure was darn near painless. And let me tell you, I don't tolerate pain all that well. I was so happy to find Sara after she left the Georgetown spot. She's got a customer in me for as long as she remains in business! read more

I can honestly say I've never been so loyal to a place for Brazilian waxing. Usually I look for groupons or living social deals because they can be so expensive. I found Sara through living social 4 or 5 months ago and fell in love. She said, "time me. I'll be done in 7min." I was skeptical at first because I was sure she was going to hurt me if she went too quick. To my surprise she finished right at 7 min and it was PAINLESS! I was shocked. There wasn't a hair left & no red or puffy areas. Sara has a sweet quirky personality that helps you get past the initial shy/awkwardness anyone feels when getting a wax. I feel like I'm going to visit one of my girlfriends every time I go to see her. She's great! I Highly recommend this place to anyone considering trying a new salon. You won't regret it. read more

YES! I will NEVER go anywhere for a Brazilian wax - or any waxing for that matter - ever again! Sarah is warm, friendly and highly skilled! I have strong stubborn hair that grows thick... But it was no match for Sarah's amazing hands! I've already referred my sister and would refer anyone looking for quality waxing services!! GO! read more

Convenient for ballston area. Price is good. Sarah is so sweet. Makes the process as quick and easy as can be!

I've been getting Brazilian waxes for years and this was by far THE BEST I've ever had. Sarah is amazing. Won't go anywhere else!!
