Kika is the best - she's warm, funny and does a fantastic job! I have had both sugaring and facials from Kika and truly can't say enough good things about her. Her space is beautiful, healing, spotless and so relaxing. read more

Kika is awesome and does such a fabulous job sugaring. She is very particular and makes sure you are pleased with the results. Her heart is huge and her soul precious. The office is extremely comfortable and peaceful. If you are on the fence about the process or results, no need to be with Kika. You are in great hands. read more

A wonderful experience! This was my first experience with sugaring and I was impressed with the over all experience! Kika- super sweet and welcoming. Environment- calm, CLEAN and cozy. Experience- a Brazilian sugaring was considerably less painful than waxing and also seems to me to be more sanitary and natural. Results- seems just as effective as wax without the tender discomfort after! I will definitely return and recommend Kika to my friends! read more

I am fortunate to say I have travelled the world receiving spa treatments from wonderful places local and abroad and Kika Skin Care for me is an easy, trusted and delightful choice! Kika first introduced me to the concept of "sugaring" after some pretty harsh razor bumps showed up in my underarms after shaving. She insisted I try it and that it is THE BEST. Since the sugaring the condition improved dramatically (my skin is so soft now!) and I don't think I will ever use a shaver again. She was right. In addition to the quality of services offered here, I wanted to mention that Kika has one of the friendliest personalities of people I've ever met. Just being around her puts me in a better mood. She has positive energy, uses humor and lightness and is filled with wisdom from her life's many other experiences and endeavors. (She also teaches yoga and pilates and puts a lot into leading a healthy and compassionate life.) In her care I felt I was with someone who was personable, conscientious, responsible and focused on getting the job done to completion. Grateful to receive such amazing and inspiring service! read more

I highly recommend Kika Skin Care. Kika is AWESOME. She is not only warm and welcoming, she really knows her stuff. I had a facial and left feeling rejuvenated and relaxed. I even received compliments that my skin was glowing and looked great. Thank you Kika for a great experience. read more

I really didn't want to write this review...only because I'm deathly afraid of sharing Kika's amazing with the world (for selfish reasons!). But really her greatness should be shared and noted (for her sake!). Kika is the PERFECT sugaring artist, esthetician. Why you ask, let me tell you the ways: 1. She is truly an expert & perfectionist. What do you want sugared and where? She will make it smooth and beautiful. 2. You can tell she's a pro by how painless the procedure is. She is swift--martial artist should train with her that's how quick she is with her hands! 3. Even though it's clear she's high in demand (for all the reasons above) she gets back to you within the hour and really works with your schedule. I have never been turned away--even when I have asked for next day appointments. 4. She is a gifted conversationalist--so funny, warm & lovely to talk to during the procedure! 5. Super duper affordable. Sometimes I think she should charge more--but am glad she doesn't :) I've never had a better sugaring experience in my life. Ever. I'm currently in hillcrest but commute to solana to see her--that's how good she is. I have been converted! I am a faithful Kika's-artisan-sugaring patron. read more

As a cyclist I've had the joy of having Kika sugar my legs... Her sweet tender care and expert abilities made this a great experience. The results were amazing and I'm impressed with how long it took for the hair to grow back. When it did it was thinner and easier to work with the next time. What is great is she also does facials as well. Kika is a sweet caring skillful practioner which I fully recommend you experience for your next skin and hair removal services. She is awesome! read more

I have been seeing Kika for about 10 years whenever I am in San Diego. She is such a skilled esthetician and she makes me feel so loved and welcome with her love and light that shines through! I live in normal heights and I could get sugared 5 mins from my house if I wanted to, but driving to north county is WORTH it. I love my visits with Kika! Her warm energy will leave you feeling pampered inside and out. read more

Kika is the absolute best! I started my sugaring journey with her and I am so glad I did. She always greets me with a warm welcome and creates a calm, clean fun environment. She is extremely thorough and I genuinely enjoy every appointment! read more

I will not go anywhere else ever again so long as Kika stays in business. Sugaring saved me. My skin has been sensitive my whole life and waxing left me unhappy and without the results I wanted. Kika is as skillful as she is considerate. She is VERY good at what she does. Highly recommend skipping waxing forever, as sugaring has left my skin smoother and more supple than ever. Thank you, Kika! Emily Rose Reeder read more

This was my first time surgaring and i was so surprised how gentle it was. Kika is an AMAZING Estetician and she is very thorough. From what i googled what sugaring was, i heard it was just like waxing with pain and all. But the whole process was gentle, like a massage. Kika was very kind when she was sugaring my face and she was VERY attentive to detail that she did not want to miss a single hair. So much better than other places that just want a quick buck and leave you hanging with a lop sided eyebrow. I highly recommend the service of sugaring and going with Kika. I felt like i was getting a 5 star treatment. Her office is also very clean. She also saved the day because i have very dry skin on my face. She advised me towards the right direction with skin products, and my skin has never felt so smooth. Days before my face was peeling so bad through my makeup that i started to feel blue. Kika stepped in and took the right action to get my fixed right away. I CANT WAIT to go back for my brazlian. its going to be so painless and just in time for summer. She is very personable, sweet, and somebody you definitely want to see again. She is all smiles :) HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! read more

Kika is SO passionate about sugaring it's almost funny. She loves to catch every detail and will spend extra tame making sure each leg hair is gone. Kika introduced me to sugaring after getting my legs waxed for the past 7 years. For me, sugaring is less painful and more enjoyable then the usual waving situation. I think part of this is because sugaring is less painful and most of it is because Kika makes it like a mini massage. Her space, much like Kika, is vibrant and beautiful. Going feels like a little, mini spa retreat. The products Kika uses are top of the line and all natural. I have even eaten the sugar paste. Kika is the most honest loving individual I have every spent time with. I am so happy she has found another way to share her light and love with people because it means I have more ways to spend time chatting with her. Contact Kika ASAP. You will not regret it. read more

First off, Kika is a amazing. When you show up to your appointment, you're not going to feel like a client, because she treats you like a friend. No avoiding the mundane conversations about traffic and weather. She is genuine, and kind. You feel so comfortable, it's easy to forget the fact that you're there to have a treatment. I've been waxing for years, and switched to sugaring because of the natural ingredient benefits. I have extremely sensitive skin, and I am prone to ingrown hairs like nobody's business. Sugaring has proven to be the best method of hair removal for my immensely hard to please lady bits. That's why sugaring is great, and this is why Kika is the best esthetician I've ever been to.... If you have waxed before, chances are you have spent two weeks out of every four in an awkward stubble phase. This use to be normal to me, to the point I would schedule avoiding those friends that relentlessly insist on impulse beach days. But finally, NO MORE! Kika is SO precise, and efficient that even when my hair is growing back, it's so thin and light, especially around the edges, I feel comfortable in a swimsuit, at any given time. I don't suffer from ingrown hairs like I use to, and when I leave Kika's spa my skin is not red nor irritated, it's actually soft and smooth from the moment I'm finished. I've been so pleased with my experience that now I bring my boyfriend along and we have Back/Brazilian sugaring dates every month. (Which I should mention, my boyfriend has psoriasis, and even his skin is left smooth, without irritation or bumps). If I could leave a ten star review, I would! read more

I've had plenty of Brazilian Sugaring done before but this was by far the most uncomfortable and she was by far the least professional. When I first arrived she was less than welcoming, asking if I ever had Brazilian Sugar done before and why I just didn't go back to that other place. Then when it was time to undress/dress she showed no respect to privacy as she just stood in the room with me. While on the table she instructed me to get in "Happy Baby" position which she explained as having my legs spread open with my feet in the air. Lol it was a bit awkward since most professionals are able to get the job done with great results and in more modest positions 10/11- I appreciate your sincere apology and there is no need for a refund. I just think it's important for the readers to be aware of your peculiar style of "yoga" Brazilian Sugaring and respecting client privacy while undressing/ dressing IS common practice so I would encourage you to go out and shop some of your competitors to see what is standard. read more

I have been going to Kika for probably about 3 years now. I have the best time when I'm there and she makes getting sugared less awkward. We talk and laugh and she does a great job of keeping my mind off of what she is doing. I used to hop around to different people for sugaring but when I found Kika, I knew I was in the best hands and had found my person. Do yourself a favor and go see her. read more

Kika is the sweetest person and so passionate about what she does. She is gentle, kind and shares thoughtful knowledge.

I love Kika! She is awesome- very sweet, friendly, and efficient in her profession. I felt very welcomed the first time I was there and had the best experience- will never go anywhere else. The space is very clean as well. I highly recommended her!! read more

Kika does the BEST sugaring!! Not only is it quick but it's also lasting. Kika has amazing energy, she's personable and extremely professional. In addition to sugaring, I have also gotten facials done by Kika. She's very knowledgeable and pays attention to details. I love the products she uses and my skin is always flawless afterwards. I always feel amazing after a visit with Kika! I recommend Kika to all my friends!!! read more

I had both a facial and hair removal. The facial was dreamy - Kika is so talented and geniune - and my skin glowed and felt completely pampered and healthy. The products she used were great too. They are all natural - no overly perfumed toxic stuff - I'm pretty sensitve so I was thrilled to find someone using only natural products! The hair removal was fast, thorough and she made me feel completely comfortable which is good because it can be rather a "personal" experience - if you know what I mean. I felt completely at ease. I highly recommend Kika for all your skin care needs! She's the best! read more

I thoroughly enjoyed my facial with Kika. She not only nourished my skin, but also my soul! Kika took the time to ask questions regarding my skin care routine and my problem areas. The pumpkin mask was yummy! In addition to the facial, I also received some great tips on how to take better care of my face. Overall a very relaxing experience that left my skin looking fresh and glowing. Thanks Kika, I will be back soon! read more

Love Kika's energy!!! As soon as I walked in I felt at ease. Her vibe is so chill. She came in on a Saturday to do my Brazilian. Her sugaring skills are amazing. I love that fact that she is a perfectionist and it was pretty much pain free. I am so happy I found her on Yelp. I would recommend her to anyone!!! read more

Sitting down to write this, I read the reviews already written and had to smile -- they've all said what I wanted to! Kika IS truly passionate about what she does and she makes you feel like she has only one concern in life: you. She explained the facial products without trying to sell them (no little jab that some use "you could really use this on your skin, I can see you haven't been taking the best care of your face...") none of that. She exudes nurturing positivity and love. Organic products, an extremely delicate touch, and a lovely person taking care of you. What more could you ask? read more

If you're looking for a fabulous facial, look no farther. Kika knows skin! She's extremely careful, knows the correct procedure for whatever the issue, uses the best products, and is absolutely delightful. Plus, the facial ends with a hot towel across the shoulders - heaven! I cannot recommend her highly enough. Treat yourself to a facial with Kika and you'll never go anywhere else. read more

Absolutely fabulous! I have tried waxing and laser hair removal in the past but wanted to find something more natural for my sensitive skin. I am SO thankful I found Kika! I have skin that can hyperpigment and the sugaring is super gentle to my skin! Plus, Kika is the most thorough person ever! You don't know how many times I've come home from other waxing places where you find some "leftovers"--not the case with Kika and I truly appreciate it! I also had an organic facial and truly found a facial to stick with monthly. In the past, I had other facials that would leave my sensitive skin red for at least a day, if not more. This was SO not the case with the facial at Kika's. She is thorough but also knows the needs for your skin. The next day, all my co-workers asked me if I slept in because I was glowing. LOVE her space that she works in! So welcoming and calming after a hard day at work. Plus, she always makes you feel so good both inside and out after a treatment. She has just great energy and an uplifting soul. Definitely book her ASAP! I'm due for another facial soon and can't wait! :) read more

Love Kika, she is amazing and hilarious. Even through the pain and how much I cussed during the process, we had a good time laughing . Thanks Kika. Time to see you soon! read more

Had a great experience here-- Kika is a friendly, vivacious and talented woman who does great work. I will never go back to waxing again! Sugaring all the way :) same pain/feel but muh less irritating to the skin. Would recommend highly. read more

Got a great sugaring treatment from Kika, who is super adorable and friendly and made me feel right at home. It was my first time sugaring and I definitely prefer it to waxing. But make no mistake, in sensitive areas that ish still hurts like the dickens! But good to know that it is natural and it just seems better for the skin. read more

Two firsts for me; microdermabrasion and sugaring. I absolutely loved the results of the microdermabrasion. My skin was glowing and I wasn't the only one who noticed, I actually got a few compliments on how great my skin looked. I'll definitely be signing u for a series. I used to get brazilian waxes, this was the first time I tried sugaring instead. It was less painful than traditional waxing and didn't leave my skin irritated like waxing does. I'm hooked on this too, no more shaving or waxing. Kika loves what she does and it shows in her work. I can't wait to go back for repeat services and try a facial! read more

Kika is the sweetest! Getting a Brazilian is a little less painful when you have someone as fun and warm as Kika caring for you. If you're lucky she'll even sing to you in Italian. I love that she gives helpful skincare tips and product recommendations. She never pushes any of her products on you; she simply recommends different things and allows you to think about what's best for your skin. Every little thing she does makes you feel so welcomed and cared for. read more

I love Kika! So glad I found her on Yelp. She was welcoming, friendly and did a great job! Be sure to text her for fast response with scheduling. Sugaring was amazing and it was the first time I didn't breakout or have any skin irritation. I will definitely be back and recommend her to anyone in the area. My skin is smooth and looks amazing. read more

My super girlfriend has been going to Kika for 2.5 years now and comes home every time with only the best things to say about Kika. She deserves 5 stars for that alone. But I can attest to the quality as well. 5 stars all around. Ask your girlfriend to book Kika....both of you will be happy! read more

Kika makes waxing the best experience ever. I've been going to her ever since my friends recommended her. The waxing process itself is better than traditional waxing and kika makes sure to get EVERY single hair. I lover her. Won't go anywhere else. read more

If you haven't tried sugaring, you are missing out! If you haven't tried sugaring with Kika, you are absolutely missing out! I have been seeing her for over a year since I moved to SD and I wouldn't dream of going to anyone else. She is the best! She is a perfectionist and her work is an art, she also makes you feel incredibly comfortable, booking appointments is super easy- I'd highly recommend Kika! read more

Amazing at her trade! Really took her time & was thorough! I'll be back on a regular basis if not just for her sugaring but for her conversation. I'm referring everyone to her from now on! read more

Kika is the BEST. She is outstanding at her work, and she has a vibrant, positive energy that immediately puts you at ease. I've been getting brazilian sugaring done for years, and I was worried it'd be hard to find someone when I moved from LA to San Diego. Thankfully I found Kika because of Yelp, and all the outstanding reviews don't lie. I never thought sugaring could be so painless! She's the best I've ever gone to, by far. Her sugaring is thorough and doesn't hurt (seriously!), and I've noticed a huge difference in the quality of my skin afterwards. Now I never get ingrown hairs and my skin is never raw or irritated afterwards! I love her so much and wouldn't trust my skin to anyone else. read more

First time customer. Kika is a friendly, efficient, informative and open person. She made a very personal thing feel casual and normal. She was quick and able to make me relax with good conversation. She didn't make me feel weird about anything. Very positive experience. In and out quick with full attention on me. read more

Kika is such an amazing person! She makes you feel super comfortable and makes everything feel so relaxing. She goes the extra mile with your wax and takes it upon herself to provide excellent, quality service. Prices are super fair and she's such a joy to be around. read more

Kika did a great job on my sugaring! Very quick, attentive to detail, and painless!! She is also very accommodating to your specific needs as a client. Thank you Kika :) read more

Kika is the best for every service she offers! She is professional, courteous, takes time with each client and truly makes you feel like you are her only client. She has a gift for all her services...why choose sometime else when you can go to the best? read more

Thank goodness for Kika - skin care expert extraordinaire for beautiful looking skin - but as or more importantly, very wise about when to go see the dermatologist for blemishes that look not quite right. Kika didn't scare me, she didn't panic, she just calmly said, this is a bump that should be looked at. Thankfully it wasn't skin cancer, but as often happens, the doctor found something else that needed attending to. Thank you Kika for being on top of the latest and most important wisdom in skin care. I feel safe and beautiful in your hands! Highly recommended. read more
