Lani was there to greet me and take me to her room the second I walked in and had music playing which really helped distract my nerves! I came in for a brazilian wax a bit nervous and unsure what to expect, both experience wise and pain level. Lani was so kind, calm, quick and reassuring that it didn't even hurt. I couldn't be happier with my results and would definitely come back in 4-6 weeks to keep up with my waxing. I was expecting to be screaming and crying in pain but it was about 2/10 pain level and no negative after effects, just smooth as ever!

It was my first time getting waxed, and Bethany was very communicative about what the experience and pain level would be like. She was very friendly and a pleasure to talk to.

The stylist I was with was very sweet and kind, but she ruined my hair for my graduation photo…read moreshoot. All I wanted was simple curls. I even brought in photos of what had been done on me in the past by stylists back home. She had me leave with my hair up in tiny buns on my head and told me to take them down before my shoot and run my fingers through them. I thought this was strange as in the past hairstylists just used a 1 inch curling wand. My hair turned out atrocious and she could not fit me in to fix her mistake. I was given a refund, but I will never get back the opportunity to take decent graduation photos. I really held back about writing review because she was so sweet, but I just got my photos back today and here I am upset again because this hair stylist didn't know how to do curls.

I've never waxed my legs in all my life, but needed to get down to business before vacation. Kari…read morewas able to fit me in last minute. Her place on Clinton Rd is so charming! It's a tastefully decorated house across from Gilroy, Kernan & Gilroy. The rooms are spacious and private. Kari explained the whole process to me, and even forewarned me that the waxing might not remove all my hair because of the stage of growth I was in. I went ahead with it anyhow since I was leaving the next day. Full disclosure: I have very sensitive skin. So much so that if I get a cut on my leg I will usually have a mark/scar for years afterward. I was pretty nervous that waxing would just leave my legs red and bumpy. Not so! I had some slight redness for an hour afterward and then it was gone. Smooth legs, satisfied customer.

The shaping was better than other places I have tried and she actually measured my brows/face to keep the ratios right.
