Best Waxing In Alameda

“I hadn’t gotten waxed in the past couple years but still had wax passes (they never expire so might as well use them). Andrea was so sweet and kind, and FAST. She even had time to tweeze out the stubborn short hairs. She was a great person to have while I got back into waxing regularly. Thank you Andrea!“

“I had my permanent eyeliner tattoo done by Tran at Lash Stop & Glow Bar, and I couldn't be happier with the result. Im very afraid of pain or not natural looking , but Tran took the time to explain the process, listened to what I wanted, and paid close attention to every detail, and made the whole experience very comfortable. The result look natural and color came out beautiful and natural, the lines are clean and symmetrical, and it really enhances my eyes while still looking natural.
I highly recommend!!“

“I’ve been a loyal Secret Garden customer for years. Carrie the owner has created a beautiful, unique sanctuary for skincare & massage. Her facials use the latest treatments and I’m glowing for days after my session. She is a massage therapist as well and you won’t regret trying this place. Plus they sell plants, and beautiful home items.“

“I love this place! It’s so clean and well maintained. Mikaia is the best waxer, she’s really efficient and gets every hair. She’s always checking in to make sure that you’re comfortable. 10/10“

“Michelle at Lovely Brows is amazing! She shaped my brows perfectly and made them look natural yet polished. Super professional, friendly, and detail-oriented. My brows have never looked better!“

“Thanh is seriously amazing ? She’s the sweetest, most professional lash tech and gets my lash lift absolutely perfect. She pays so much attention to detail, makes the whole appointment feel relaxing and comfortable, and my lashes always come out lifted, clean, and exactly how I want them. I trust her completely with my lashes and always leave feeling so pretty. Couldn’t recommend her enough ?“

“This place is an absolute hidden gem. The staff is genuinely lovely, warm, and always welcoming walk-ins with a big smile. Highly recommended!“

“I walked in for a pedicure ahead of my trip.

My toes were rehabilitated from crusty dusty piggies to cutie pie ones. Cuticle care, scrub, massage, quick and gentle blitz on some stubborn thick skin patches, willing to let me test out a couple colors until I landed on this gorgeous red!

Thank you! Love em! Will be back!“

“Went to Demi for the first time on a whim and think I’m going to be a permanent client 🥰 I was looking for a hygienic and sanitary nail place after my usual one started getting sloppy and dirty. I was so impressed by how clean and organized she kept her place. She also uses one time use tools to avoid cross contamination. I got a gel manicure and it never peeled back or chipped. I dont know what type of polish or technique she uses but its STRONG stuff!

Besides her amazing quality of work, she is also a kind and gentle person that will make you feel safe and comfy at her salon like a friend. You can tell she is working hard to run her self employed business to support her family. She really cares about making sure everything is perfect and highly recommend giving her your business 🩷“

“Quick and easy waxing experience! Had a Brazilian and lower back wax. I am very sensitive. She was very gentle and sweet. Will definitely be going back.“

“Wow, I’ve never had this pink jelly soak/scrub before. It was fantastic. My feet so soft after the a wax bath. Service was great and the good part is the cleanliness of the place. I decided to do a metallic gold and silver color which they suggested and I love it. I wanted different ones on each feet and be unique. Will definitely come back.“

“This lady knows what she is doing!! I was so nervous to get my brows threaded for the first time after waxing them myself for ages, but she got my brows looking symmetric for the first time in years and it made such a difference in my face. Quick and not expensive. I am never going back to waxing!“

“I got a perm done by Nelly! She took great care of me and walked me through the whole process of what it is like to have permed hair. She was very knowledgeable in how to properly care for it and she gave me all the tips I needed to know! Nelly gave my hair layers and a trim then we proceeded to get the perm done. It came out great and it looks very close to the reference photos I showed her! I would most definitely recommend ⭐️“

“Every time I get my lashes done at slick face beauty I always leave happy. I show her a few pictures and she makes my vision come true. You pay for what you get here and I love that the quality and retention of the lashes are amazing.“

“This is the ONLY place I go for my Brazilian i literally be baby bald for at least a month ! Fe is the best ! - let her know Camilla sent you 💕“

“Rarely do I write reviews, but Viktoria’s facials NEED to be talked about! I’ll preface this by saying I had acne for 17 years and had gone to many estheticians and dermatologists. Some got me sort of close to the results I wanted but nobody has gotten my skin to clear up this much! Viktoria is amazing as are the products she uses. They’re super high quality and I personally love the smell of them. I will be a consistent customer of Skin Glow for as long as I live in L.A!!! Seriously if you were looking for a sign to book her this is it :)“

“I’ve been coming to this salon on and off for about 2 years and every time I go somewhere else I come back here! Service is 10/10 and the place is clean and safe. They have many colors to choose from. V is great for designs but all staff have done a great job on my nails regardless for both manicures and pedicures. Worth the price!“

“I came here for a gel manicure and pedicure with simple nail art. I was impressed by how clean and well ventilated the salon was—I could hardly smell the polish at all which was great, as I’m pregnant and my nose is very sensitive right now. The staff is efficient and friendly. Finally found a nail salon I like in Alameda!“

“Love the services and personal care Laura takes when working with me. She is always very in-tune with what my skin needs. She's also improving on her skills and techniques which I can see/feel the benefits of on my skin. I would definitely recommend Laura to anyone looking to add self care into their routine. Thanks Laura!“

“What a great experience! I had the micro needle facial and it was incredible!

Vita is so lovely, explains everything clearly and is very caring.

She used numbing cream so the procedure didn’t hurt a bit and I was only red into the evening.

Highly recommend!“

“Andrea is no joke! She will do everything possible to get you what you want! I met her in the late 1990s when she was starting out. She was great then. Then I hooked back up with her in June 2021. OMG! That girl has only gotten better! Not only does she do great hair, but she has a super duper personality! Such a marvelous person. Go here and you will leave grinning ear to ear every time! I will never see anyone else!“

“Marisa was great! She was very friendly. Experience was easy, location was convenient (there's parking). Highly recommended and will be going back!“

“Great staff, very attentive and accommodating. i’ve been coming here for years for hair service for my mom and just recently tried their pedi/mani. They bring great service.“

“Great salon! Zoey does an excellent job with nail design and my gel x extensions last the longest when I've gotten them done here.“

“Katie Nails is my favorite salon in town and abroad because I never have to worry an ounce about being unsatisfied and unappreciated. I love how clean, safe, and refreshing I feel whenever I indulge a little back into my own self care. Love the custom nail art I’ve been getting on my big toes. And knowing I’m supporting and funding a young girl’s college tuition makes my heart flutter a little faster. Cheers to all the girls out there that love beautiful nails and put their self above any one else all while maintaining a classy and polite front.“
