Maria's Organic Sugaring Studio Springfield

Maria's Organic Sugaring Studio is a beauty studio in Springfield, Virginia, that centers on natural hair removal and skin care. It lists two locations: one at 6165 Fuller Ct, Studio A, and another at 7015 Backlick Ct. The studio describes itself as calm and skin-focused, with gentle sugaring at its core.

Sugar waxing is the studio's main service. Hair is removed in the direction of growth using a paste made only from sugar, lemon and water, with no resins, no added fragrance and no synthetic chemicals. The method is described as the Persian technique. The studio says its waxing lasts longer than traditional waxing and offers a natural alternative to laser hair removal. Sensitive skin waxing and pregnancy-safe waxing are both available. Sample prices include upper lip at $15, underarms from $25, buttcheeks at $45, Brazilian at $65 for clients returning every 4 to 6 weeks, $90 for returning clients outside that schedule, and full legs from $120. Men's chest and back are priced from $80 and $85.

The facial menu covers sensitive skin, anti-anxiety, acne, acne solution, high pigmentation, microderm, European, dermaplaning and rejuvenating treatments. The European facial includes a double cleanse, steam, exfoliation, a shoulder massage and a mask, followed by finishing serums and moisturizer. The acne facial starts with a longer first visit that includes a consultation, skin analysis, product testing and a first acne treatment session, after which the studio builds a customized plan and homecare routine. Dermaplaning uses a sterile surgical blade to remove dead skin cells and fine vellus hair. The rejuvenating facial combines a customized treatment with LED light and a massage using cooling rollers, and is offered for fine lines and wrinkles.

Beyond facials and waxing, the studio offers a Korean Thermal Therapy massage bed that uses heated thermal rollers, automated massage and acupressure points along the spine. Clients with medical conditions or injuries are asked to consult their physician before using it. Skin care consultations help clients choose products and a regimen for aging, blemishes or general skin health. Airbrush tanning is also offered.

Facial services and the massage bed can be booked online; sugaring appointments are booked by calling or texting the studio. Cancellations require 48 hours' notice, and a cancellation without that notice carries a fee of 50% of the scheduled service cost. The studio reserves the right to refuse service and to change its rules, services and pricing, and it is not responsible for lost or stolen property.

The studio's approach centers on natural, simple care: its sugaring uses only sugar, lemon and water, and it says its ingredients are 100% organic.

The studio describes its feel as calm and skin-focused.
