She's also great at offering tips on how to care for your skin at home and even has some amazing products for purchase in the salon.

It was my first time! I left there in so much pain (which I knew some pain was to be expected) and when I got home, I found quite of bit of hairs she missed! And, the worst part of it all, she ripped the wax strip so hard down in my Southern region, it tore off a small piece of my skin. I was bleeding! I had to call another wax shop for advice on how to treat this, and how to get this "fixed". It was a rushed job, and I'll never be back! Oh, and she didn't even care to take care of your backside, which is part of a Brazilian. And, when she got finished, she handed me a baby wipe and said, "Here, clean yourself up". Now, I'll be going to a more reputable wax center and paying them to fix her disaster, but it's worth it! DO NOT MAKE THE SAME MISTAKE I DID! You get what you pay for!

This is the most unprofessional business I have ever been to. I've been to maybe 3 sessions prior…read moreto my last session. My last session was ok nothing out the usual. Once it was time for my next session I didn't get a reminder so I called the store to find out my appointment time. The supervisor answers and informed me that my account was placed on hold. I ask why and she says that the last person to wax me says I asked her for inappropriate activity. Highly upset I asked the supervisor to have that person investigated because that was an accusation and I was highly upset. I went on to let her know how disgusted I was and upset. No one reached out to me to discuss prior but was quick to accuse me. I asked if there were any recordings of conversation and there isn't any. I asked for the owner to reach out. I was told I would be contacted. I called a total of 4 times with no return call or owner. Finally after 3 weeks of no contact the supervisor calls back and says my membership was canceled. Take in mind there was no investigation done to protect the customer from false accusations. The owner never reached out and I did all the communication on something that was 100% inaccurate and unprofessional. Not only did you not protect your customer but you did not hold your staff accountable for falsely accusing.

I have visited this sugaring studio for probably the past 3 years. Overall, the front desk staff is…read morefriendly, facility is clean, and I usually have a great experience with one particular sugarist--Katy Mathis. My reason for giving two stars is because prior to Katy, my experience at LA Bikini was consistently inconsistent due to the high level of turnover with staff members. Some were rude, some inefficient, some apathetic. But when I met Katy, I knew she was someone I had to lock in as a permanent service provider. FYI ladies--when you're getting hair ripped out of your hoo ha, having a relationship with the person doing it is paramount. You have to be comfortable with the person doing it, and the staff at LA Bikini seemed to be so unpredictable before Katy that I almost stopped going altogether. Now, to reach my point for giving two stars: as a business, why the hell would you sever the relationship with one of your longest-employed service providers with whom your loyal clients have built a relationship over the years? As a customer, I feel like the decision to take away someone who provided me with such excellent service was a poor business move. Because I do not trust the service of others who are currently employed by your facility (not saying that they're not excellent staff members--I just don't know them or have a relationship with them due to the extremely high turnover I've observed over the years as a customer), I can no longer patronize this establishment. And that makes me sad, because it's not easy to build a relationship with someone who will be responsible for accessing our most sensitive areas. I don't know where Katy is now, but just due to the sheer lack of consideration that LA Bikini has shown towards its customers in severing a relationship with someone highly valued by those who pay them to employ people they trust, I'll no longer be attending this establishment.

I was new to sugaring 6+ months ago... I have been an avid 'traditional' waxer for a good 15 months…read morebefore making the shift to sugaring. Honestly, I was nervous. I didn't know what sugaring was... but it was new. OMG. Y'all. While the end result is the same (smooth hair-free skin) the 'how' is different. Mostly painless. No irritation. Quick. ROOM TEMP SUGAR - no more 'burning' wax. For the last 2 appointments, I've had Reema. And I love her. For all of the right reasons - she engages in chit-chat and let's me babble (it's how I pass time and forget what we're actually doing). She's super fast but also expertly thorough. She runs on time and even early if you're there before your appointment start. I've had other great sugarista's too... but Reema is now my girl. My only negatives are (1) turnover seems high which means that my sugarista may change without notice and (2) it's REALLY pink. Like really. They claim to provide mens services, but the pink would be a huge turn-off if I was looking for mens sugar services.

No matter what service she has provided for me I have always been satisfied. I've recently started going to her for waxes and I won't be going to anyone else from now on! As someone who has been waxing for years, I've pretty much accepted that it will always be painful. My most recent Brazilian wax with her was almost pain free and I'm not exaggerating. That was the least amount of pain I've ever felt, and I also like that she provided skincare tips for my bikini line to help with hyperpigmentation and ingrown hairs, which none of my wax ladies have ever done before. She also checked in with me the next day to see if I was satisfied and if I had any concerns. If you're looking for someone who knows what they're doing and truly cares about the health of your skin you've come to the right place!
