Waxing near Montecito

“Irina is a godsend! This is the best experience I have had in a long time! This facial made me beautiful! I have sensitive, acne-prone skin and have been flaring up lately. Irina is lovely and caring with her clients, providing excellent care and recommendations! Definitely a must add to your skin care routine!“

“I recently received a men's haircut from the owner, who's been in this space for over 20 years. She was friendly, fast, and a true pro. I didn't want a super-short barbershop cut, so I decided to try this salon. She handled things with just a pair of scissors but she quickly got the job done. I'll be back!“

“Me and my boyfriend made an appointment for manicure pedicures and we had a lovely time! My gel pedicure looks amazing as well as my hands, and my boyfriend said he was very relaxed after his pedicure. Fon and Ken were so sweet and made us feel very welcome. We are visiting Carpinteria and they happily gave us recommendations for restaurant and activities! The massage chairs and a great added bonus. Would definitely recommend coming here.“

“Just had my first haircut at The Standard. The owner and stylist Liz, was very hospitable, professional and friendly. Best haircut I’ve ever had, and her attention to detail was outstanding. The atmosphere of the shop is comfortable and well appointed. Very relaxing.Services: Haircut“

“Jessica is great! She is warm and friendly, and went above and beyond to ensure I had an excellent experience. When one of the services didn't turn out quite as we'd hoped, she didn't hesitate to have me come back so she could make it right. It's clear how much she cares about both her craft and her clients. I truly appreciate the extra effort.“

“Excellent service. Staff are very friendly they treat customers kindly and with respect. I like how they treat me, my pedicure came out perfect 100 % recommend this place.“

“Gentleman was very nice. A clean and pretty atmosphere. $65 for gel and $10 for French.“

“Raquel is the best aesthetician I’ve ever had. She’s warm and friendly and still highly professional. I look forward to each visit!“

“Great experience at SB Nail Bar, as per the rest of the Google reviews, I requested Emily who was amazing! I waited to post this review to check how long the nails would last and I have them ok with all gemstones over 3 weeks later. I showed Emily my reference picture which she happily accommodated and followed, she was super kind too. These were an acrylic set with gem stones for $80 which I think is very reasonable compared to the other salons in the area. Please go and request Emily!!“

“I love love love this nail salon! It’s the only place I go as I always leave feeling shiny and new again. Plus I love the husband and wife duo! They always make me feel welcome.“

“Always the best eye brow experience and the best results. I am very sensitive to wax in general but since going to Tanna my skin has had zero irritation or problems. I’ve always over plucked and since going to Tanna, they are full and perfectly shaped.
If you haven’t had a lash lift, I highly recommend this treatment too!“

“Julie not only gives great facials but she noticed a spot on my face and advised me to go to the dermatologist to get it checked out. I did and sure enough I was scheduled for mohs surgery immediately! Thank you Julie for keeping my skin healthy.“

“I’ve been getting Brazilian waxes for years and this was the best yet! It was nearly painless. The owner is so personable and her studio is so clean. Couldn’t have been happier with my experience!“

“I’ve gone to Karmella since I’ve moved to Santa Barbara and she’s absolutely amazing. The easiest wax I’ve had and she goes so quick too! I definitely recommend going to her. 100000/10!!!“

“I have received facials from Denise since 2015, before she opened her private business and provided her amazing services in a salon. I followed her business in 2017 when she opened her studio, as she is by far the best esthetician I have been to. This week, I am turning 23 and extremely happy with my skin. I used to struggle with cystic acne during my teenage and young adulthood years. Denise taught me how to prevent acne scars, calm my face, and protect myself from severe breakouts. Now, after using Accutane (I chose this treatment as cystic acne began to prevent good sleep), I only get hormonal breakouts a maximum of once a month, and I have suffered VERY minimal scarring! She is extremely well-educated in skincare and the science behind the skin microbiome and what it needs to glow! I 100% recommend Denise!!“

“Way better than I expected! Ill admit I was a bit scared at first of getting waxed, but Lica was very reasuruing and made me feel comfortable. After the first strip it got much easier, and for the results its so worth it. She even gave great advice on aftercare. Highly reccomended.“

“Jen is an artist!! This was my first time ever doing my brows (I was nervous) and she was super nice with me and give me confidence about it. She’s puntual, lovely and super professional.. also the space is super cozy. 100% recommended!!!“

“Vanessa spent a lot of time talking about the color and cut I wanted. Which was nice, instead of just jumping into whatever. She ended up doing highlights and balayage in my hair. I let her do whatever she asked since by that time I knew she knew what she was doing. I really like the color and cut. I am pleasantly pleased. Her prices are fair, which is very much appreciated.
I will definitely be going back to her. She’s my definite go to.
She’s also very down to earth.
Thank you Vanessa ❤️“

“Superb service with heated message table and tranquil music. I’ve been going to Sharon for years for a more natural looking hybrid lash fill and it always looks fabulous!“

“My mom and I were looking for a facial in Santa Barbara and were so happy we found this place. We were both able to get in last minute yesterday, which felt like such a treat, and we each had Alyssa as our facialist.

She was an absolute doll !! so sweet, accommodating, and made the entire experience incredibly relaxing from start to finish. She took the time to really understand our skin, listened carefully to our concerns and needs, and was very thoughtful and prescriptive in her approach. On top of that, she was just genuinely lovely to talk to, which made the experience even better. We both left feeling refreshed, taken care of, and glowing.

Highly recommend this spot — and definitely book with Alyssa! We’ll absolutely be back and plan to make this part of our regular routine. ✨“

“Marlin is absolutely amazing! She is so attentive and good at what she does! I’ve never felt better after a wax and for sure will be coming back and will be a long term customer :))“

“I get my haircuts done by Angelica. I have been going here for years and I feel like a movie star every time I leave the salon. She never disappoints! Highly recommend her for haircuts and blowouts!! Also love love her hydra facials, leaves my skin so smooth and glowy. This is my favorite spa in Carpinteria!“

“Michelle is kind, professional, and really good at what she does. Sugaring isn’t painless, let’s be honest. This is hair removal, not a spa nap. But she works quickly, makes it as comfortable as possible, and walks you through the process so you’re not just gripping the table in silence.

I have sensitive skin and this is one of the few places that doesn’t leave me irritated for days. Everything she uses is all natural, and my skin handles it well. She also offers spray tans if that’s your thing.

The bathrooms are actually clean. Not “we wiped the counter real quick.” Clean. Complimentary tampons and wipes are stocked, which tells me she’s thinking about her clients beyond the appointment.

There’s free Jolly Ranchers and gum in the waiting area. A little sugar before the sugar. Booking online is easy. There’s plenty of parking in the back. I’ve been coming for years and I still drive from Ventura. That’s not casual loyalty; it’s because she’s that good.“

“I’ve been going to Santa Barbara Spa since it opened and love all of the treatments I’ve gotten. It’s a relaxing and welcoming place. I also love all of the products Shelby sells at her spa. I highly recommend!“

“Vu Bang gives the best pedicures! Highly recommend asking for him, best pedicure I’ve had in a really long time and he takes his time!“

“I’ve been to see Cody severe times for Botox and waxing. She is amazing. She made me feel so comfortable and heard.“
