It seems to me that Marina knows how to wax given the rave reviews that she got however, laser is a different story altogether. After giving us the whole spiel about the choices out there (groupon seems to be a target of hers), the "unlimited" laser deals - all those other places that don't work, my wife decided to give her a try. She was as convincing as a used car dealer stating that her magical machine cost 80k. Having said that, she was not willing to negotiate price because the fact that she knows what she is doing and she would get it done right. Anyhow, Marina was right! No hair grew back in that area because of the huge scar that was left due to the third degree burn that Marina gave her. When Marina texted about a week later, we told her what had happened and she said that because my wife drew a line where she wanted the treatment, that is the reason. Shouldn't Marina know these things because she's the professional? Anyhow, I would recommend everyone to go to a real clinic or a spa and not a basement of a person who couldn't even say I am sorry. Yes, Marina made a permanent impression on my wife. It's been over 2 months and the scar is there! No! Do not go here. read more

If you are seriously looking to get laser and are patient, truly wanting to understand what this means and entails, I highly recommend Marina. She is very knowledgeable and will tell you how it is. She's upfront and honest. She ensures she educates and guides you through the sittings and overall process. Extremely dependable and accessible. I have had some good laser sessions with her and I couldn't be more happy to have found her. I am writing this review as I am approaching the end of my sessions (negligible hair growth!). Thanks to her, I couldn't be more happier or relieved. :) read more

I rarely give a review but since the great reviews lead me here i think others should be advised. This is a clean if not over perfumed space and marina certainly is knowledgable. Price is in line with other spas (though not an actual spa its a dressed up retro fitted basement) and i cannot say it was a scary experience. I have had enough waxing done that i know what to expect and i will concede that due to scheduling conflicts i let things go to long before appropriately getting treatment. However not even during my very first experience did i ever bleed or experience so much pain and discomfort. I was not made to feel safe and welcome but rather felt rushed and basically told to buck up and take the pain. It was easy and quick to get an appointment and the manner was professional if not a bit brusque and i did walk out with no hair but i cannot fathom going back. So now you know and can make you decision. read more

Lovelovelove coming here. I come here to get my brazillian done and she always does a perfect job. Every other place has left hair or wax on the skin after, or a breakout ensued but not here. Even with my sensitive skin, I come out without any irritation. Little to no pain and chatting helps take my mind off it. Prefer here to a commercial salon every day because everything is super clean and done well. Again- no rashes, bumps, burns, or improper texhnique just flawless results! Would reccomend to anyone. read more

Amazing. Don't look any further. Marina is literally an expert at waxing. From other Mississauga spas when getting a brazilian, I have had: ingrown hairs, pimples, redness for 5+ days, hair growing back at very different times, rashes, etc. It was very painful, uncomfortable, and at times a dirty room. Double dipping, wrong technique, dirty apparatus, wrong creams, not cleaning the area after - all major problems in Mississauga. I don't want to name businesses, but they are mostly run by Asian women. I am very pale, but have very corse black pubic hair. Shaving is not an option, and waxing has to be done right to be affective. When I moved to Mississauga I had to change aestheticians, and it was one fuck up after another. I went to 7 different spas with horrific results. To be clear: nothing was ever done for my comfort, nor did I get anywhere when I called to complain/showed up over a week later with a rash/ingrown hairs/pimples. I doubt half these places have licensing or are up to hygiene standards. **Marina was very knowledgeable, made me feel comfortable, her studio/home was spotless, she spoke English well and she herself was very clean and more than presentable. A (hardcore) brazilian wax lasted about 10 - 15 minutes and was (I'm not exaggerating) almost pain free... I don't know what to tell you, it really was. She said it was technique and the type of wax . In most places they make long wax streaks on you, like from your butt to the front of your bikini line and rip (which causes ingrown hairs), but she did little spots almost everywhere, and pulled them at different angles to be sure they didn't break (my hair grows at different angles) - which means she never went over the same area twice. Also the wax only felt warm to me, it wasn't "hot" at all. I told her my worries about redness and pimples and she held me back for 5 minutes explaining proper care after waxing for pimple prone women. (Wash with baking soda in the morning and evening). She is Russian, and does have a no nonsense attitude (like all Slavic women); just deal with it. This lady does such a good job it doesn't matter. If you have super thick black hair, but are sensitive - look no further. read more

Just had my first session with Marina. Absolutely painless, those home waxing kits hurt a lot more. She kept me engaged in conversation, which kept my mind off what was happening. Thanks Marina! I will definitely be back. read more
