1st Time Brazilian Wax experience with Elena was great

by Janet H

I went in for my first Brazilian wax expecting to have to use the Lamaze breathing and focus techniques I learned for childbirth, but Elena did such a good job that I shouldn't have worried at all. A little tweak here and there, but no real pain. And no embarassment- those little paper panties just make you feel more confident. Elena is just as sweet and caring as everyone else has said- I wil go back, and plan to try her facial services, too.

• Pros: Nice atmosphere, almost painless
• Cons: none

Great Facials

by Halla

I have very dry skin, and I had never had a facial before. A friend recommended Elena, and she is wonderful. She pays a lot of attention to detail. My skin looked radiant and healthy, so much so that I am not wearing makeup. The skin care line she recommends is excellent.

• Pros: Personalized Service
• Cons: Must make an appointment

Extremely Satisfying Experience

by brinico82

I am always extremely satisfied after leaving Elena's. I only started going to her about 5 months ago. I wanted a brazilian wax before my wedding and was so concerned about the pain. I had read a few reviews from people saying Elena was awesome so I decided to try her out. I really only planned on getting it done for the wedding and then stopping, but I'm now back every month. Since I haven't been waxed by anyone else, I don't know how painful it can be. I wouldn't say it is painless, but it isn't nearly the trauma that I had built it up to be in my head.

I also had my eyebrows done for the wedding. I have been getting my eyebrows waxed for over five years. I've been to a lot of places and had some good results and some bad, but the first time my husband (then fiancee) noticed that my eyebrows had changed was when I went to Elena. I knew when he commented on how good they looked that she was truly unique.

I recently had my first facial. I wasn't sure what to expect and honestly I didn't believe the results would really be anything noticeable. The rest of the day after the facial my skin was mostly red and a little bumpy and shiny, probably because my skin is so sensitive and I have a lot of breakouts. However, the next morning I couldn't believe how amazing it looked. My breakouts were basically gone and my skin was soft and smooth. I really can't believe just one facial had such an effect.

Elena herself is always so attentive and sweet. She's easy to talk to even though she's clearly focused on what she's doing. She always asks me about my concerns and recommends things for me to try. She really believe in the products she carries without being pushy. She has yet to steer me wrong. I would recommend her to anyone no matter what your skin problem!
