Okay so it's time for an updated review!!…read more I used to go to Yvonn but since she no longer works here I started going to Leonor!! Let me just say I loved my last girl but when I tell you Leonor is the best waxer ever! I mean the absolute best! If you're looking for a good experienced waxer who knows what she's doing then she is just the person for you! I literally feel so fresh and so clean after I leave my waxes with her. She is also a sugaring expert! Talk about getting every single hair! My underarms feel like they have had laser treatment! They also just relocated down stairs to a bigger studio that is so nice and cozy! I just love the clean tidy look of it! It's like a Fancy Chic type of feel. If your getting waxed you wanna feel like your at a clean spot so you can relax and get those well deserved treatments. If you're looking for a place where you can be comfortable and come out feeling hairless then this is the experience you need! Book with Leonor ASAP!

Bonus: you'll love getting to know Sydney beyond the sugaring! She has great recommendations for anything from places to visit, to movies, and beyond. Come visit her asap!!

I was a little hesitant to try sugaring after getting hard-wax Brazilians for years, but she immediately put me at ease. She thoroughly explained the entire process, the benefits of sugaring, and the importance of proper aftercare to help me get the best possible results. To my surprise, sugaring was significantly less painful than traditional waxing, and the results lasted much longer than I expected with minimal regrowth. I can confidently say I'm a client for life! Her location is conveniently located with plenty of parking. The treatment room is beautifully decorated and feels just as warm and welcoming as Sydney herself. Her website and online booking system are easy to navigate, with clear descriptions of each service, making scheduling simple and stress-free. On top of that, her pricing is very reasonable, and she frequently offers fantastic specials. I highly recommend Sydney to anyone considering sugaring or looking for a skilled, professional esthetician.

It doesn't get better than this. Tops it off that she's beautiful inside and out, skillful, and just the absolutely best esthetician that you can find in the area. The studio itself so chic and modern, but most importantly of all, it's CLEAN. That is so important. Clean and sanitize is key here. It always smells amazing inside, not dirty not like anything burning or melting. Love her playlist because it gives you something distracting when you're getting hair ripped off your fragile body parts. You can book appointments online and see her work on her Instagram, or you can take my word for it because she's simply amazing. Hard wax gets everything done and she's so detail oriented. My wax queen, but best of all, she's the TWEEZE QUEEN. She gets all the ingrowns and the hair that breaks off. She teaches you post care and does her best to ensure that she gets all the hair. No rush at all and I never feel pain. The wax is amazing and I see a difference in how the hair grows back. She uses two different types of hard wax on me just because my hair grows differently. She applies great pressure, especially on my sensitive spots. Best of all, she always remembers you from the last session and makes a huge effort to stay consistent. I can't speak highly enough of her. She does amazing work and my Brazilians are always A1. I see her religiously every four weeks and she doesn't even try to up sell you things or make you come sooner. She really does care about her patients. Parking is easy, there's a lot right behind the building and it's easy to find. She knows when you arrive so if the shades are drawn, she's probably with another customer at the moment. But she'll pop her head out and acknowledge that you're there. She takes cash and square- but I always believe if you can cash her out do it. Got to support out go-getters and cheers to entrepreneurs.

This place is very welcoming and clean. I have been going to Monique for waxing for over a year…read more She is judgment-free and very professional. I feel as if my comfort is her top priority. I highly recommend checking this place out and booking an appointment. They use hard wax...so none of the soft wax with cloth strips that hurts like no other on your sensitive areas. Plus side: easy access from the 580 freeway and plenty of free parking.

Studio Fourteen is located in Sola Salon Studios, in Castro Valley CA.
