About

Maria's Nails & Waxing is a small, private salon in Rochester that offers manicures, pedicures, waxing and a separate range of services for men. The salon describes its work as natural and restorative and presents itself as spa-like, with a quiet setting that is built around relaxation and stress relief.

The business centers on natural products and gentle, healthy procedures. Gel manicures use BioSeaweed Gel, which the products page describes as big-5 free, meaning it is made without formaldehyde, toluene, DBP, BHA or camphor. Pedicures use Essie polish, and waxing uses RICA natural wax along with hard and strip wax that the salon describes as all natural and imported from Brazil and Italy. Wax is not reused between clients, and the salon says it is strict about sanitation.

Maria's signature services are the Maria Signature Manicure and the Maria Deluxe Pedicure, both of which add longer treatments such as paraffin, masques, massage and warm towel wraps to the basic service. Appointments are required, and clients can book house calls. Gift certificates can be bought in person at the salon.

Waxing is priced by area, and the salon notes that prices may change depending on how much product is needed. Clients are asked to avoid tanning, swimming and harsh chemicals on the skin before and for 24 hours after waxing. The salon also recommends waxing every three to four weeks for the best results, and it advises starting to exfoliate the day after a wax and repeating every four days to help prevent ingrown hairs. Cancellations require 24 hours' notice.

Focuses on natural products, healthy procedures and stress relief, with services described as natural and restorative.

A small, private and quiet space that the website describes as spa-like.
