I don't like strangers touching me, which is why I don't enjoy a professional massage as a gift lets say.... but even worse than that is almost anybody touching my face!! I find it incredibly invasive and hard to relax. This being said,, when I received a gift of a facial from Tachi's skin care for my birthday last year,, I was nervous about how I would feel. I have never enjoyed having my face touched as when I received a facial from Tachi. I was immediately at ease, she was graceful and intuitive and totally knowledgeable about every single question I had. She explained what she was doing in advance so I was never surprised. She explained why she was doing things in certain steps and gave me extensive information about the products she was using and why they were what my skin needed. It was amazing! It was relaxing! I wanted it to last for weeks. Also, since I had known several friends who were using her services and products and looked noticeably better than before their treatments and product regimens. I decided to buy a product line from Tachi suited for my skin type and needs.... It was amazing how different my skin looked after a few weeks. Stronger, firmer, more supple, kind of glowing. My breakouts were diminished considerably, my skin just looked all around more healthy,, youthful too. I couldn't recommend more the experience of Tachi's magic hands on your face,, and following up with the products she suggests... It is worth it and beyond... And this coming from a lady who not only cringes at face touching, but has also spent a small fortune on hundreds of products that never came close to making my skin look as good as it does when I'm following the Tachi regimen....... Do not miss out on this experience.......... read more

It was January when I called Tachi with one of the worst break outs I had had in a long time. My skin has always been extremely acne prone, and over the years I have been through more products and treatments than I care to count, always with more frustration and inconvenience than actual results. Now into my 30's it seemed only to be getting worse. My invincible bad skin had left me feeling that this attempt would likely be just more of the same, but I am so very thankful to Tachi that it was anything but! I am now writing this in August with five months of totally clear skin and Tachi is without a doubt my skin care hero! All the way from southern Oregon (I am in Portland) Tachi was able to assess my specific issues through pictures, emails, and phone conversations, and she developed a treatment plan that was super easy to follow, and totally effective. The improvements in my skin were apparent very quickly, and I have not had a single breakout or serious blemish since I started working with her. With Tachi's kind and knowledgeable support I gained the resources to finally manage my skin, and I am so happy to no longer be on the cycle of useless products and attempts at covering up my skin. For the first time in my life I feel totally comfortable out in the world without makeup which is more liberating that I can even say! I cannot recommend Tachi enough for her expertise in bringing balance to problem skin and for the incredibly professional and personal care she provides. Thank you Tachi, you are amazing! read more

Tachi and I have been life long friends since the age of 5. I have been following her continually evolving esthetics career since the beginning. I have had the the pleasure of receiving facials and treatments from her, albeit long distance, for years. I knew she was gifted from the first time she worked on me. I must concur with what all the other reviewers have been saying about her. She is truly passionate about skin care and is constantly researching and following new developments, products and techniques in her field. She has a truly one of a kind touch and warmth about her that will put anyone at ease within meeting her. She is 150% dedicated to every clients skin needs/challenges. She is a results oriented esthetician, which is reflected in her overall approach, as well as the product lines she utilizes and retails, which I have been using and loving for years now. I recently received a microcurrent treatment from her when I was last in town, and i was surprised, and thrilled to actually SEE the difference in the mirror right after, my eyes were noticeably lifted and my whole face looked overall firmer. I can only imagine the results had I been in town long enough to receive a series of them! I have actually been so inspired by her that I myself am now about to be licensed for eshtetics in San Francisco! Look no further, you have undoubtedly found your esthetician. read more

I am an esthetician that has worked in the industry for fourteen years. I think I have an idea of what is mediocre and what is beyond amazing in the skin care world. I am also a native of the valley that worked in the industry for numerous years there. Since then I have moved on to San Francisco and now Portland. Rest assured if anyone ever asks for a facial referral. I refer Tachi time and time again. There is simply nothing even in comparison in the valley. What she is doing is on par with what is being done in larger cities. She is constantly evolving, educating herself, and growing with an ever changing industry. She realizes that the typical skin care client is far more skin savvy than in the past, and she able to meet their specific needs. If you want mediocrity go to someplace else. If you want results and your skin to look the most amazing it ever has, go see Tachi. Not only is she esthetically advanced but she really is one of the loveliest people I have had the pleasure of knowing. Make that appointment. read more

I have never really dealt with skin issues until about 2 years ago. I started having hormone problems and developed severe acne that my dermatologist wasn't even able to treat. I felt like I had tried everything and had seriously almost given up until I was referred to Tachi by another aesthetician. I could tell right away that she was passionate about what she does. She made me feel so comfortable and assured me that she would solve my problem. I was given so much information about what causes acne, ingredients to avoid in products that cause acne and even how my diet was affecting my acne ! She set me up with a regimen and within a few weeks I started to notice a dramatic difference in my skin. I have had continuous treatments over the past 8 months and I have finally gained my confidence back. I couldn't be more happy ! Tachi really is a miracle worker. I HIGHLY recommend her ! read more

Whenever I visit family and friends in Ashland, I make sure to schedule an appointment with Tachi for one of her fabulous facials! If only she lived in Portland... I'm happy to see she's on Yelp and I'll make my review short and sweet. Pros: -Dreamy touch -Best bed ever -Knows all her products well ( she even ships them to Portland for me!) -Nice atmosphere..good style ( many places tend to be on the cheesy side) -Gorgeous lady (not like that matters though..) -Best facial I've ever had!!!! Cons: -My only complaint was her workspace being at her house, but now she has moved to a new spot in Medford, which I can't wait to visit! -I have to travel 4 hours to see her. I highly recommend!! read more

I am at heart, a "no-make-up" girl, but consistent hormonal breakouts in my 30's had me sporting foundation and more while I tried everything and anything in search of results. I had nearly given up when a friend referred me to Tachi. She is a miracle worker; She assessed my needs, educated me on everything from product to diet and set me up with an easy to follow personalized routine. Within a few weeks, my skin was totally CLEAR. I have now experienced 5 months of no-makeup beautiful skin for the first time in 5 years! I also note: she is a lovely person...funny, thoughtful and beautiful! I can't imagine anyone finding a reason to go anywhere else. read more

Tachi is wonderful! Shes been doing my brows for over 7 years. Among other various waxings and facials. She uses the best products and takes the most care in all her work. She is very professional and has a lovely new office in medford, although all her work spaces have always had a welcoming and relaxing atmosphere including but not limited to soft music and a very comfortable bed/table. I would recomend her for all your estetic needs. She really is the best at what she does. read more

I moved from San Francisco recently & was looking for a local aesthitician. I saw some reviews for Tachi's services & am very glad that I went to see her. Not only did my skin look great a few days after I saw her but she made the whole experience very comfortable. She is very professional & up to date in her practice. I really liked that she highlights the products she feels work. Definitely looking forward to my next visit! read more

Tachi truly cured my acne. I became a client nearly a year ago and had tried literally everything on the market to clear up my skin. In my 30s I was rarely without a breakout and after trying product after product & system after system for a decade, I began with a series of facials & product with Tachi. My complexion improved immediately & I am totally breakout-free & my skin looks better than ever. read more

I have undergone facials from Tachi SkinCare, always relaxing, always enjoyable. Recently I have started microcurrent treatments. My face feels firmer and smoother. My friends are noticing the change. The very coolest is when I run into someone I haven't seen in a while and they say to me "you never seem to age". I get a silly smile and say "thank you Tatchi, you're the best." read more

Tachi provides professional, expert skin care. I know because I've been following her for her services for 7 or 8 years now. She also makes the appointment fun. I now consider her a friend, and having an appointment is a social event catching up on our news. I give her the highest recommendation. You will not be disappointed. read more
