My skin is glowing and flawless after seeing Wendy. Besides the incredible facial she introduced me to an anti-aging/wellness juice, MonaVie, that keeps my skin youthful & glowing between appointments. Thank you Wendy!

I am happy to have found Jan Marini skin care products. I was first informed about them thru my plastic surgeons office. I got an amazing facial at Wendy's Skin Care and was thrilled to find out that she carries Jan Marini skin care products. I can see and feel a huge difference on my skin and complexion. I used to be a smoker, so I have fine lines and wrinkles around my mouth. The C esta lip cream has helped with that and I also have had great results from the Bioclear cream. I am also seeing remarkable results from the Hair Age intervention conditioner. My hair feels much thicker. I recommend getting a facial at Wendy's and especially Jan Marini products.

Pros: cozy atmosphere, warm personal service

Cons: parking

Wendy is a fantastic esthetician with magic hands. I've had about four facials with her and love that her gentle approach brings great results. She is always educating herself and updating her skills and technique. Offering great prices and yummy warm wax treatments for your hands. Go check her out!!

Wendy is great! I go there for Brazilian and eye brow waxings and always leave satisfied. I've been going to her for about 2 1/2 years and love how we've established a relationship where we can talk about guys, The Secret, crazy people, or whatever else comes to mind. Sometimes there are few stray hairs but nothing big. I don't know what the other reviewer was talking about b/c she never tries to sell any products. Plus, she's the best deal in town - only $40 for a Brazilian and $15 for an eyebrow waxing.

I just received a relaxing facial from Wendy today and my skin looks terrific. She gives one of the best and reasonably priced facials in the city. I have also had many waxings with Wendy and she is the best. She is gentle, friendly and professional. Her office is in a convenient location and is very comfortable. My sitter cancelled at the last minute today, so had to bring my 3-month old daughter with me to get the facial - no problem - Wendy is very easy-going and accommodating. I highly recommend her!

Pros: Professional, comfortable, easy-going

Cons: none that I can think of

Wendy is quite professional. She is offers many different great services that will make you look better and feel better about how you look. Her facials are fabulous. Her eyebrow waxing and shaping are the best. She's very down to earth, so it's like being with one of your best friends. Her small office is like a spa room---clean, smells nice and she has soothing music. It is a very enjoyable experience.

Pros: Wendy is skilled and accommodating.

First she was 10 minutes late--not that this was a big problem for me. She did not wash off all the facial off my face...so I am walking down the street with this green stuff on my nose and chin. She told me in the beginning that I "needed a lot of work" on my face and in the end, "she said I was perfect." The truth is, my face is not that bad. But what does she want me to think, "Wow, she must do magic then. I need her! Right." There were other little things that showed she was not that professional. I felt rushed. She did not try to massage me harder when I asked her to. It just does not seem like her heart is into it. She does not explain what she is doing. It seems like she is trying to sell you things. She is not totally into the conversation.

Pros: She was able to take me at the last minute

Cons: Her heart isn't into it. She is not professional

I was recommended to Wendy by a friend, I definitely thanked her later- Wendy is so great! She is so genuinely sweet, and even better, she is efficient and skilled. I now have my own "Skin Care Proffessional" I go to her for just about everything on a regular basis. I also loved how cute she decorated the room herself, and because of her convenient location I now go to the hair salon where she rents, it's a one stop shop!

Pros: Honestly, everything!

Cons: Honestly, none!

The room was a little loud because of the hair salon in the other room. Outside of that, she gave me one of the best and thorough facials I have ever had, especially for $80! Every time I thought for sure that there was nothing else she could possibly do to my face, she had another "potion" to apply. I would definitely go to her again.

Pros: great neck/shoulder massage while face mask dries

Cons: a little too loud to be relaxing

Tucked away on busy Union Street you will find a wonderful aesthetician that tends to your concerns. I've had acne prone skin for years which has left scars on my cheeks--Wendy recommended the deep pore facial and customized it with a glycolic acid peel. Sure, post-facial skin is not pretty, I peeled for a couple of days after but it's been three weeks and I have not had any cystic pimples and the scars on my cheeks have lightened. I will definately be going back! Wendy does not try to push products on you and will make recommendations for products upon request. Prices are reasonable and if you buy a series she will give you a discount!

Pros: clean, effective facials, friendly

Cons: Street noise
