I have a friend who went downtown Portland to get waxed and talked me into it. There is no way I was going downtown to get my underarms waxed. So I decided to do some research in the Gresham area. I found Ridas Skincare. I liked what I was reading on her website and decided I would go see Rida. Oh my gosh......I could not have chosen anyone better!! I have never experienced the waxing process and was a bit nervous at first but once I actually met Rida I was totally at ease. She did an excellent job waxing my underarms. Rida is very professional and meticulous. You are not done until she is done. That would be the perfectionism in her. Not only is she professional she has a great sense of humor!! I was so pleased with Rida that I went back for a Brazilian and then back a third time to get my legs waxed. I would now consider myself a regular customer of Ridas. I would never go anywhere else!! Two of my friends have already been in to see her and they are happy as well. I would highly recommend that if you need any kind of waxing done or skincare that you go see Rida. You wont be sorry!! read more

Rida is the best, no doubt about it. Her blend of knowledge, patience, and humor put a person at ease immediately. Rida waxes both my partner and I, we'll never go anywhere else. We drive to Gresham from Washougal to see Rida! I started with just the essentials--lip and brows, but have progressed to arms and bikini as well. Rida assured me, as I was nervous about the different areas, that she has done all of the various waxing procedures on herself and she knows exactly how to prepare you mentally for what to expect. She is very professional, yet so friendly that you'll feel right at home on her (heated) table. And her prices are so reasonable, its really a win-win situation. Definately go see Rida and you'll never go anywhere else. read more

Ridas Skincare is amazing!! First off quality of work is the best i have ever had. I have gone many places for my eyebrows and she is the best! she takes her time, does quality work. I have very dark and defined eyebrows so if someone messes up it is easy to see. I never have to worry about it with Rida. Also I go to her for a brazilian wax, she is great! again quality work but even more important I always always feel comfortable around her. she is very easy to work with, always answers all of your questions and when I leave I feel beautiful! That is what skin care and spa treatment should make you feel like. Not to mention the products she uses are all natural...bonus! read more

I went to see Rida today for a facial and it is hands down the best one I have ever received. I have very sensitive skin and she took excellent care of me. I have been abusing my skin, using products I shouldn't have and she worked really hard to get my skin back to normal and my skin hasn't felt this good in a long time. She is Brazilian, with an adorable accent. I really enjoy seeing her and would never think of going anywhere else. She is incredibly knowledgeable and intuitive when it comes to skin care and I really learned a lot from her. She is not pushy and even recommended a friend when I asked her about makeup that would work for me. read more

I've been having Rida perform my Brazilian waxes for almost a year and a half. Rida puts my prior waxing to shame! No really, her waxes are perfect and pain free every single time. Her studio has a warm, very clean, and professional atmosphere. She uses the best waxes available. Her personality is always professional, you are her #1 client when you are with her, and she has a great sense of humor. My husband and I are planning a move to Vancouver in the future and I have already told her I will make the drive back to Gresham to continue waxing with her. She is Five Star!!! Thanks Rida. read more

Rida is probably one of the best in all of the North west. she is very friendly, and she is very diligent when she takes care of your skin, or waxing. she is also adheres to all the sanitation rules as if she was the enforcer of the rules, does not take short cuts, and expects perfection. After I discovered her I don't go anywhere else. and she does such a good job, that hair follicles take for ever to grow back. so I don't visit her as much as I did at other places, its a shame though because she always has fun and interesting story to tell. read more

I have been a regular client of Rida's for years. I always leave feeling beautiful because not only has my skin been given excellent, refreshing care, but I have also been in the presence of a beautiful spirit. Rida has a wealth of knowledge of the skin and dermatological conditions. She continues to study her craft, and has elevated it to an art. Even though I no longer live close to the salon, I travel to gift myself with Rida's services. I will never allow anyone but Rida to provide me with facials, waxing, and foot and nail care. read more

I go to Rida for Brazilian waxes. I cannot imagine going anywhere else! She is AMAZING! She is thorough, professional and personable. I love catching up when I see her. She makes sure to pick out my problem hairs and takes her time. She uses hot wax only which is so much easier on my sensitive skin and bits! This is important to me as Im prone to ingrowns. I tell everyone to come see her. Shes lovely! Go see her, you wont be sorry! And you wont want to go anywhere else! :) read more

I've been a client of Rida's for almost 3 years. Cannot believe I didn't put a review on here sooner. There is no one else I'd recommend in the Gresham/Troutdale/Portland area when it comes to waxing. Rida is not only very thorough with her job, she is sweet and genuine. Does an amazing job at making you feel comfortable whenever you're with her. Her work is perfection and if you're looking to get a wax, definitely schedule an appointment. You will not regret it. read more

Thinking about getting a Brazilian wax but are unsure where to go? Go see Rida ! I was always interested in a Brazilian but was unsure of the process and where to go. Before my first wax, Rida set my mind at ease by answering all of my questions and explaining everything. Rida is very good natured, funny, calming, and such a wonderful person. She takes pride in her work and does a fantastic job. I couldn't imagine going anywhere else ! read more

I have been getting waxed by Rida for over five years. Rida is by far the best that I have ever been to. I have had treatments by other people who don't even come close to what I get from Rida. Each appointment she does an excellent job. I have never walked away disappointed. I would highly recommend her to anybody I know for facials or waxing. read more

I have been coming to Rida for over a year now, she is the best, truly. If you have never done a Brazilian wax (or have had a bad experience) come to Rida, she is a professional, clean, friendly and her price is reasonable. I brought my boyfriend for a manzilian and he loved it. We will continue coming to Rida as long as we live in Oregon. read more
