Daina was amazing! She did my nano brows just a few days ago and, while they're still healing, the boost it's given my confidence is undeniable. I used to put a lot of time into my brows, but over time, have lost interest in doing my makeup and, with that, a little bit of my "look". I wanted to start investing in my appearance again and realized...my brows were...gone?? They were patchy, light, and pretty much disappeared at the arch. There wasn't even anything for the makeup to stick to. While I have no idea what that is all about...I do know...I just didn't feel as pretty anymore and was ready for a change, so I scheduled a consult with Daina. I went in looking for something extremely natural looking, as I don't wear makeup and didn't want my brows to look goofy without a full face of makeup. She matched my shape and color perfectly...and I feel like myself again. In just the last few days I've been complimented by strangers, coworkers, and friends over and over. Most who knew me couldn't place what had changed, only that I was glowing and looked "so pretty!" Which was exactly what I was hoping to get out of this - not a glaring, dramatic change, but something that fit and complemented my face better than my natural brows were. As far as Daina, herself, I went into my scheduled 3hr appt with my AirPods expecting to listen to my audiobook because I'm anxious and awkward and wasn't sure what the heck to do for this length of time without a phone to scroll through. I didn't even touch the headphones. She was such a joy to talk to and so easy to get along with. I genuinely enjoyed the entire appointment. It might seem like a small thing, but my energy has changed since getting my brows done by Daina. I'm dressing up a bit more. Smiling more. Want to take pictures of myself. I can't remember the last time I felt this way. Thank you so much! read more

Strip Custom Waxing & Skincare - Eyebrows by Daina! (No eyebrow make up on neither) - Waxing Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

You have to check out Strip Waxing! It's a fairly new salon with experienced staff. Daina has been my go to girl for waxing for years. I trust her, she is so good at what she does that you hardly feel any pain, and is so thorough. She has given me the cleanest waxing jobs ever. I used to see Daina at Trim and once she said she was leaving, I knew I wanted to follow her wherever she went. Diana is very thorough and makes me feel comfortable, no matter how close to my lady parts she is. She is easy to talk to and that helps a lot when you're trying to distract yourself from noticing the pain. And the pain isn't even that bad to be honest. I have had Brazilians before that hurt like hell but that is not the case with Daina. One tear off of the wax and the hair is off. Daina is available on short notice. My regular eyebrow was out of town and I made an appointment with Daina only a day before a wedding and my eyebrows have been looking better than they have in a long time. The online scheduling process at stripwaxwickerpark.com is easy and I like that the prices are listed online. Parking is easily available on the street and the location is close to many restaurants and shops. I love that there is a coffee shop next door. read more

Daina is great and whenever I have the chance to fly into Chicago to see family I always wait to wax so I can book with Daina. Being someone who loves a lot finding someone for custom waxing is not fun and it's not easy to trust anyone. Definitely always come to Daina! If I no longer live in Chicago and still manage come to see Daina it says a lot about her skill ! Pain free and always easy to book ! read more

Daina is worth my trip from the suburbs to Chicago! I followed her from Trim and wouldn't trust my waxing needs with anyone else. As a plus size girl it was important for me to find someone I felt comfortable with for a Brazilian wax. She is extremely professional, takes her time and does an EXCELLENT job! read more

Daina is very good at what she does and is always accommodating. I have been going to her for wax services going on ten years now, and the few times I have gone elsewhere because I didn't plan far enough ahead I always regretted it. She is the best! read more

I've been letting Daina whip my lady bits into shape for about 4 years now, and let's just say she does the best job ever!! I originally found out about her when she was working at a place around the corner, and I'm super pumped that she has her own place now. She is always fast and efficient and most importantly very thorough! She often goes out of her way to make sure I'm happy and has squeezed me in countless times when I was running short on time, late, or needed a wax sooner. Talking to her is like talking to your best friend. This woman is amazing. Go see her! You won't regret it! read more

Don't walk to Daina. RUN to her!! I had two previous microblading experiences. Both with someone with amazing yelp reviews. What a waste of my money. My eyebrows were faded within 6 months. Not a little faded, 90% faded. Ugh. I booked with Daina and I couldn't be happier. I can't go anywhere without receiving compliments. My brows look absolutely fantastic. Every time I look in the mirror, I smile. Also, the pain associated with it was way less with Daina than it was my previous two experiences. I couldn't be happier. Thanks Daina!! read more

Daina is the absolute best! In the past I had waxing performed and I was not satisfied. Either it was always painful or the hair was not removed properly. I used to dread my waxing visits until I met Daina. She truly makes the experience a painless one. She is quick and efficient but super meticulous. She also did micro-blading on my eyebrows. It was the best thing I could have done. It's cut my makeup apps in the morning. The shape and color were perfect! I highly recommend Daina. read more

I got my eyebrows MICROBLADED by Daina about 2 years ago and she did a phenomenal job. She gave me a beautiful shape and they lasted a long time. I didn't have to fill in my eyebrows everyday anymore I was so stoked! It was so great I went to Daina again for a touch up/more detail about 2 weeks ago. And she did yet another awesome job. She really listens to what you want and is very detailed. She treats her work like it's a work of art! (It is) read more

Oh my gosh, I can't say enough amazing things about this place. I rarely write reviews and when I do, I mean it. I have been a client of Daina's for about 10 years. I love her on a personal and professional level. But that doesn't even include her skills. If you haven't checked out her befores and afters for microblading, you're missing out. Not only is she talented, but she's clean, clinical and professional. She holds high standards for herself and is nothing short of a perfectionist. Is you are looking for a quality aesthetician in the city. Please stop by to see Daina. You will NOT be disappointed. read more

Daina has been my aesthetician for over 4 years and she's incredibly skilled at her craft.

Daina is hands down the best! First, she is awesome at both waxing and threading with is hard to find! Second, she takes her time to look at your face shape and brow shape and then threads them perfectly EVERY TIME. Unlike most places that just rush you in and out and do a hack job on your brows. I will NEVER trust anyone to do mine except Daina. Third, she has awesome packages for her services to save some money. Fourth, she is so easy to schedule with and always finds a way to get me in.
