    Going to Mel was literally the biggest mistake I have ever made…read more My lips crack everyday and they look like this everyday you can see in the middle it basically looks purple. They bleed because they have too much pigment and are super wrinkly making them look old I now miss my colorless natural lips. This has been so horrible for my mental health. Still hating it and wanting to crash out everyday because now I can't even line my lips the way I used to. all you see is the ugly pigment poking through even my favorite lip products look horrible on me. I will be posting my follow up results because I was also told they would lighten up I was told they would blend over time none of that has happened and they continue to look worse overtime and my symptoms of my lips cracking and bleeding, which has never happened to me before this procedure continues to happen making my life miserable every day. I DO NOT recommend anything permanent here tbh even anything at all because you don't know what results you're actually going to get she just does whatever and moves on, like my face isn't permanently altered . Sad. But here's the truth .

    Really loved this spot. I tried the fanny facial. My skin felt so soft afterwards. Can't wait for…read morethe next one!

    My mother in law and I were looking for a place to get a facial when we found Kawehi skin. This is…read morea lovely, lady owned, skin care boutique located at a strip mall just east of UCIMC. Several staff were on duty so we could have our treatment simultaneously. The room I was in was cozy, clean and somewhat feminine; with draping curtains around the comfortable, padded table. I was provided a bolster which Karen placed under my knees. She had noticed my grimace when I stood earlier and knew my back hurt. The facial lasted an hour. I can't tell much about it other than three points. 1- I was coaxed into a hypnotic state. My body relaxed and mind gently observed. 2- I felt nurtured and pampered. 3- my skin feels fabulous. The experience was comforting and oh so enjoyable. Kay was pleased by her care from Mary. She remarked at the pleasure of not being offered to purchase product. I have to agree. Critical feedback: I was asked 4x how I learned about the spa. When I made the appointment, when I checked in, on the intake form, and by my clinician.

    With California Winter, heavy winds and firey pollution, I felt like my skin was at an all time…read moredry. So I desperately searched Yelp for "facial" and found Kawehi Skin by work so I called to make an appointment and they were able to fit me in after work on a Friday night. I arrived early since you typically have to fill out a questionnaire prior to facials. Sandy, the owner, was my esthetician. My appointment was for 4:30pm but her previous client wasn't done until 4:40pm and then we chatted a bit about my options until about 4:50pm since they had no menu and their website is a bit outdated. She explained to me that Kawehi Skin is a customized experience so she usually looks at her clients' skin and then discuss the recommendations and let the customer decide how to proceed. I communicated that I would prefer a menu so I know what I am paying for, but at the same time I can tell Sandy was very caring and was being genuine about her service. I felt very conflicted since I usually like things defined. But she reassures me that the business is transitioning to new menus and they will completely revamp their services soon. So we proceed with my facial and my skin was definitely dry. We did 2 cleanses, steam, enzymes to digest the dead skin cells, a calming mask in parallel with a shoulder massage, microdermabrasion, and then moisturizing drops at the end. This was about an hour for $95. Sandy mentions that the services here aren't timed. In theory it is sweet that they take all the time they need on the client... but in practice that means they can be running late to their next appointment. For the record, the value was really fair for the services and upgrades I decided on. Also there is a sign out front that says "Credit Card transactions are subject to a 2.75% fee." I don't mind paying a fee, but I wished someone would have mentioned it prior so I could have went and got cash. And also I did not like a percent. It's fair to me if the business charge the flat rate that the bank charges them -- but I like advanced notice. I asked Sandy if a debit card counts as a credit card. To her credit, Sandy did not charge me the transition charge since it was my first visit. I'm not taking away any points for this since my fee was waived, but I feel like it is important for the business and patrons to be aware. Sandy was very sweet and I enjoyed her service. They are super close to work and the prices are fair. However I can't give them a 5 star when my appointment start time was late and the menu and prices are so undefined. I plan to come back when they have their menus up and business model revamped. I would be more than happy to give them that 5 stars when they earn it.
