About

The website says all team members are licensed cosmetologists, and Spanish is spoken. The salon describes its setting as relaxed and says it aims to make visitors feel comfortable.

Waxing covers the face, body and intimate areas, from lip and eyebrow work to a full body session priced at $425. For most clients the salon uses a paraffin-based Brazilian blue hard wax that grips hair rather than skin. A creamy sensitive wax is used for finer hair and sensitive skin, including brows, upper lip and legs. Hair should be about a quarter inch long before an appointment, and most clients return every three to six weeks. The salon says that regular waxing leaves hair finer and softer over time, and it describes its technique as among the least painful ways to wax, while noting that discomfort and redness vary from person to person.

Facials and peels use Glo Skin Beauty professional products. Facials are priced at $130 and are customized to skin type and concerns. Options include a plant stem cell firming treatment, a brightening treatment for dullness and hyperpigmentation, a clear-skin treatment with enzymatic exfoliation and a clay mask, and a calming treatment for sensitive skin. Peels range from an enzyme peel for oily or congested skin to a triple-acid peel aimed at melasma, freckles and acne, with prices from $130 to $200 and a retinol and vitamin C boost starting at $160. The signature facial is described as having no downtime.

Appointments can be booked online. Aftercare advice includes avoiding tanning for 24 hours before a visit, avoiding heavy direct sun on waxed skin afterward, and taking a cold shower after waxing, especially after back or leg work. The salon sells Vanish PFB for clients prone to irritation or ingrown hairs. Clients with strong allergies are advised to avoid nose waxing.

Waxing-led and technique-focused, with a choice of wax matched to hair texture and skin sensitivity, plus Glo Skin Beauty facials and peels.
