    As a small business owner, I hate leaving negative reviews, but between the studio's uncleanliness, the amount of hair left unwaxed, and the significant bleeding, this was a very poor experience. I typically go to the same waxer, but they were unavailable, so I decided to give Totally Smooth Skin a try, which was a major mistake. I was greeted at the home-based studio by a strong smell of wet, sour dogs, which could be smelled outside. The smell of dogs was even stronger once I stepped inside. While I understand this business is run out of a home and many people have pets, the smell was pungent and there was significant dog hair in the treatment room itself. The treatment was $120 (not including tip), which would have been more than reasonable for Los Angeles if I got the service I paid for, but I didn't. However, the wax lasted less than 15 minutes, there were large sections of hair left untouched, and wax remained between my legs. (Please note that I'm not talking about short or light blonde hair that can't be picked up by wax either, I'm talking about large patches of hair that were simply missed.) I have nothing against quick waxes, and before moving went to a speed waxer in the SF Bay Area who completed front and back in less than 10 minutes. I also bled significantly in multiple spots. I've been getting Brazilian waxes consistently for 10+ years and this is the first time I've ever bled. I didn't bring anything to the waxer's attention because I was dumbfounded that someone who has purportedly been waxing people for 25+ thought this was an acceptable wax job. P.S. I then received the pictured text message from the company after I left the above review of my experience on Google.

But with Ricki, I NEVER have post treatment skin issues, and she makes the entire process as painless as possible. Her vibes are incredible, which is great when you're in the vulnerable situation of getting a brazilian! Ricki also does my brow lamination and tinting. I came to try it once five years ago and I've been back about every month or so ever since haha, I love the way I feel with Ricki-fied brows. They give me the extra boost of confidence I need to thirve. I've had three promotions since I started seeing her, if that gives you any idea of the level of confidence we are talking. Ricki is the best!

Started coming back in the spring of this year and have been highly disappointed with the work Courtney has been doing. Also had a fill canceled on me two days before i was supposed to come in during a weekend i had an important event. After i found a different salon to go to since my appointment got canceled, ive realized that GBY is not a good salon at all. The new salon i went to wouldn't even do the fill for me because they said i don't have many natural lashes left and if they did a fill on me then it wouldn't last. I had no choice but to have them remove what was left on my lashes and i purchased a growth serum after being advised to take a month long break to grow my lashes back and return for a real individual lash set. I'm extremely disappointed in GBY as they've not only been charging hundreds of dollars for lash extensions made with cheap products but Courtney rushes through appointments and she uses hella clusters on what is supposed to be an individual lash set. They don't care about being honest with clients and that is a huge red flag for me.

There was great, relaxing music to listen to which drowned out any other noise- but it wasn't too loud! Since it's a facial, your eyes are closed the whole time- and so is everyone else's- so it actually felt much more private than I expected. They also provide a private changing room and a lockable locker for your belongings, so I was able to change into a robe and feel completely at ease- no need to worry about keeping your shirt on in an open space. Lani was awesome and walked me through every step of the process, explaining what she was doing and how each treatment would benefit my skin, but I never once felt bothered or pulled out of my relaxed state. It was honestly the most gentle facial I have ever had. While the masks were setting, she massaged my hands and shoulders, which was a lovely touch that really elevated the whole experience. I did get a little chilly, but that is entirely on me- I run cold! Next time I will just ask for an extra blanket! This kind of care and attention made the whole experience feel truly personalized. I left feeling great and will absolutely be coming back. Highly recommend!​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​
