I've been to a lot of waxing estheticians in the area and Katie is by far the best! I've been…read moreseeing her for over a year now for Brazilians and I always look forward to my next appointment. Katie is thorough, gentle, clean, and always does an incredible job. On top of that, I genuinely enjoy our chats and how she cares about her clients. It always feels like seeing an old friend! The wax process itself is quick and efficient, and about as painless and waxing can be. She curates the best vibes and is truly a master at her craft.

From the…read moremoment I walked in, the space felt clean, private, and calm -- which matters a LOT for a service like this. Wendy is the kind of person who makes you feel comfortable immediately. She's warm, professional, and super efficient without ever feeling rushed. She checks in with you throughout, has a gentle technique, and you can tell she has years of experience. The Brazilian itself was way more manageable than past places I've been -- and I had minimal irritation after, which is a huge win for my sensitive skin. Also: she's thorough. Like... she cares about the details and it shows. I left feeling smooth, clean, and genuinely taken care of (not like I was just another appointment being pushed through). If you're new to waxing, nervous, or picky about who you trust -- book Wendy. This is 100% my new go-to spot.

Another longtime fan here from the Equinox Days. Maggie is hands down the best esthetician I know. When I had serious problems with acne, a visit to her did more for my skin than a visit to the dermatologist. She is very knowledgeable and dispenses good skincare advice and product recommendations as well as expertly and painlessly cleaning out any whiteheads. The results are usually immediately visible. My skin always appears much improved the next day. I have seen other (sometimes more expensive) estheticians, and the results are just not as good. Maggie dispenses with the unnecessary bells and whistles and simply delivers quality skincare at a reasonable price. Her new location inside the Burlingame Le Rouge salon might be a little tricky to find, because it's kind of inconspicuous, but it's there. read more

I had an issue with the acne. My first visit to Maggie over 7 years ago did more to clear the acne than dermatologist who recommended medication that I didn't care for. Not only she cleared my acne, my skin looks healthier and brighter. It's great to see the results right away (usually a day after). She is the main reason why my skin looks and feels great for last 7 years. She is very knowledgeable, kind and looks out for her clients best interest. Now that I'm relocated 500 miles away because of my job, I don't get to see her regularly and it shows. I have tried a few other aestheticians since the move but it made me realize how great Maggie is! read more

Maggie is amazing! I have known Maggie for many years and have been seeing her for 5+ years for my skin care. She is professional, knowledgeable, and skilled at her work while also having a warm, friendly relationship with her clients. Her space is calm, comfortable, and relaxing and I love to go for both facials and waxing. Even though it is a small space, I feel like I'm in a spa when I'm there. She takes great care of my skin, is always flexible working around my schedule, and makes last minute accommodations so that I can see her when I have emergency blackheads or whiteheads! I trust her advice and expertise and I highly recommend her to anyone! read more

A few years ago my wife encouraged me to visit Maggie because my skin was drying out thanks to the lovely aging process. I also had a large freckle on my forehead which she suggested I ask Maggie about. I was reluctant at first but after my first visit I was a believer!! Not only was the facial great, she had some recommendations for a daily regemine and provided me with a product that literally got rid of the large , annoying freckle. So now I have become another one of Maggie 's regulars. she is fantastic and I recommend her for guys who might want to deal with some of the aging skin issues we have.... read more

I was super anxious about my Brazilian Wax because I've had frustrating experiences in the past, but Maggie was absolutely phenomenal! She eased my worries with kindness and a relaxing atmosphere. She is very knowledgeable and highly skilled. Maggie paid close attention to detail, checked in with me throughout the process and let me know her next steps before doing them. The results were perfect and I left with a smile. I will definitely be returning to Maggie for all of my waxing needs! read more

She interviewed me thoroughly to find out about my skin care regime (which often is non-existent by the time I get my son to sleep and am ready to pass out). Then she proceeded to give me an excellent facial using Dermalogica products. I had a galvanic treatment for the first time, which calmed my skin a lot. During the mask, she massaged my neck and shoulders which was relaxing and felt great. Ivonne offers many services including: * facials * Microderma-facials * body wraps * waxing * spray tan * teeth whitening * permanent make-up There is free parking at Carlmont Shopping Center and her salon is located upstairs. Ivonne accepts credit cards. I am pleased to find a top-notch esthetician in my own town of Belmont.
