Hair Removal near San Anselmo

“Beautiful space / welcoming staff / great results from treatments .. caring and trained team .“

“The Short of it: My Experience with Dream was amazing! Well...I guess it was as amazing as getting hair ripped off of your body can be! Scheduling was easy...her studio was bright, clean, and welcoming...she has a great personality...The pain was minimal...no post-wax/sugar skin issues AT ALL! Highly recommend.

The long of it: I recently moved to Novato, CA to be closer to family. I'm a 46-year-old man with a furrier back and shoulders than I'd like to admit and need regular waxing appointment. A friend of mine has been seeing Dream for years recommended her. I went on her site and scheduled an appointment -- it was super easy. On the day of my appointment, I arrived at the salon where her studio was located about 5 minutes early. There was plenty of parking, and there was a comfortable waiting area in the salon. Dream came out and greeted me with a smile, introduced herself and led me back into her studio.

A couple things to note:

1. Her name is ridiculous. It's not her fault -- I came to learn that her parents are hippies. Doesn't matter -- her name suits her personality.
2. She's really pretty. Does this matter at all? Nope. But, it's true.

Back to the review...

Her studio was clean. It smelled good, without having any overwhelming fragrance. It was bright, private, and very clean, but didn't have a cold, clinical feel. We talked about the services I signed up for -- back, shoulders, and nostrils (IYKYK) -- and she walked me through her process. It was great! Made me feel comfortable even though I knew I was about to experience pain (I'm very pain avoidant). I have been going to waxing appointments on and off for years. This was the first time I have been introduced to sugaring. She talked me through the difference between waxing and sugaring, telling me the pros and cons of each. I appreciated her informative approach, and we implemented a strategy.

She worked quickly but was very thorough. I have never experienced waxing with such a small amount of pain!! I am a yapper, so I really enjoyed talking with her -- she has an excellent personality and is really fun to talk to. Before I knew it, the appointment was over...and it went super smoothly! (see what I did there?). The best part -- I'm now a week past the appointment, I have had ZERO skin reactions, and my skin is pretty sensipoo. No bumps, breakouts, or rashes!

I re-booked on the spot and am actually looking forward to my next appointment.“

“I love getting sugared by Tesa. I've been going to her for over two years now because of the awesome service and comfortable environment she provides. My legs were so sensitive when I would shave, every time they would get red and bumpy and cause ingrown hairs/infections. If you have sensitive skin like me then I 100% recommend sugaring. You have to be patient and okay with the hairs growing out but it's worth the sacrifice. There is seriously no better feeling than leaving an appointment with Tesa and having smooth legs!! She is thorough and really knows what she's doing. I always get the lower half of my legs done but have occasionally sugared my arms and bikini area as well, and was equally satisfied with the results. Tesa herself is awesome. She's extremely professional and friendly. What is typically a 45 min service (for half legs) almost always turns into a longer visit because because I have such a great time chatting with her and catching up. I always look forward to my next appointment!“

“ive been going to Noelle for over a decade for Bikini and eyebrow waxes. It's unbelievable how fast she is but im also very sensitive to ingrowns and Noelle's waxes make that so much better. I feel so beautiful every time Noelle does my brows, it's so worth the extra $$!!“

“I went for a basic facial and conult and loved every minute. The converted victorian is INCREDIBLE, there is nothing to copair it to in Marin, one of a kind.“

“Amazing at her job and so sweet! Always makes sure I feel comfortable and happy when I’m done!“

“I'm 8mon pregnant so it's hard for me to see down there lol but I'm so glad I booked this location with Anna. Not only was she gentle but she didn't rush and took her time making sure i was comfortable. I found a new home here and I would recommend her anytime. Everything about the service was AMAZING from the moment I walked in her establishment until the time I walked out. Everything was a Vibe.“

“Deep is always great! I've been going for a couple months now and she really has helped shape my eyebrows. service is always top tier. thank you so much Deep! -Melissa“

“Service, efficiency and the absolute attention to detail from Jen on making sure everything is just right!“

“I absolutely love getting my brows done with Manu! She’s so talented and makes threading quick and painless. My brows have never looked better—she always gets the shape just right for my face. Plus, she’s super sweet and makes the whole experience relaxing. Couldn’t recommend her more!“

“Where do I even begin! I've been receiving laser Genesis from nurse Nancy for years. It has transformed my skin! But this review is about the amazing facial I received from Esthetician Erika. She is not only the most gentle and kind person but she truly has MAGIC hands. The facial was so relaxing, thorough and transformative. My face left feeling brighter, tighter and glowy. Thank you Erika!!! Can't wait for my next one!“

“I’ve been coming here for a year and out of all the nail salons I’ve been to, the polish stays on the longest the way that Sydney and her team do my nails. The space is bright, clean and I’m always in and out very fast. Everyone in there is lovely!“

“Jeannine is spectacular! I’ve been going to her for 15 years, which says a lot about the quality and consistency of her work. She is always punctual, communicates clearly, and brings a high level of expertise to every session. She stays current with state-of-the-art techniques and equipment, and you can really feel the difference in her care and professionalism.

Beyond her technical skill, Jeannine is a warm, thoughtful person who truly listens and tailors her approach to what you need that day. I always leave feeling better physically and emotionally. I also deeply appreciate her commitment to giving back through community service, which reflects the kind of generous person she is. I recommend her wholeheartedly.“

“Kristin is the best at what she does!! Most amazing personality, care, and skills and always makes sure you’re having a good time! She’s my go-to from now on and I can’t wait for my next appointment with her :)“

“Amazing experience!!!! He did such a great job on my leg. I would recommend him to everyone“

“The best place to get sugared I absolutely love them. I’m so happy with how smooth my skin feels and they are so gentle and kind. I strongly recommend you try it . I’ve been a customer for a long time and I won’t go anywhere else. An they also do amazing facials too“

“I’ll admit—I was scared, nervous, and a little skeptical about getting Botox for the first time. But the moment I was in Daphne’s care, all of that melted away. She immediately put me at ease with her calm demeanor, confidence, and genuinely gentle touch. You can truly tell she loves what she does, and her expertise shines through in every step of the process.

I’ve had the pleasure of receiving her amazing facials back when she ran her own business, and I can honestly say following her to Mt. Tam Laser was the best decision. The quality of care and attention she provides is consistently top-tier—truly 5-star service every time.

I only wish I had taken before-and-after photos because I was beyond thrilled with my results. She completely smoothed out my stubborn worry lines on my forehead, and the outcome still looks so natural—just a refreshed, more confident version of myself.

On top of that, the entire experience was seamless. The front desk staff were warm and friendly from the moment I walked in, and parking was surprisingly easy once you find the location, which made the visit even more stress-free.

If you’re feeling unsure or nervous like I was, you are absolutely in the best hands with Daphne. I cannot recommend her enough!“

“Power MD is friendly, courteous and very knowledgeable concerning my care. Thanks for all your help and assistance.“

“I LOVE LASERAWAY in NOVATO! My results are exceptional and keep coming back for more. It’s amazing that I have Joleen Cantera (outstanding patient care coordinator) whom has stayed connected, advises consistently, and has a passion for helping me with my goals and walking me through the process!! ? Nurse Karen is also amazing as she is always clear precise and hears my wants/needs. The entire team of LaserAway from the front desk to all of the nurses have continued to exceed my expectations and feel that everyone on an aesthetic journey needs to come here⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Treatments I have continued to treat: Botox, fillers, semaglutide, clear+brilliant, micro needling, hydra facials, and rejuran.“

“Amazing! Very clean, very gentle threading, my eyebrows look beautiful. The person who threaded my eyebrows was very kind and skilled. Thank you! I will come again and recomend my friends :)“

“Clean professional facility, reasonable prices and gentle thorough treatments by the practitioners“

“Generally decent work but their prices for many services are about 20% higher than you can get elsewhere, especially PRP treatments. Even their lasers… I’ve paid less for an MD doctor in San Francisco perform the exact same laser procedure for me for $200 less than I would pay a nurse to do at Medusa. Also I’m suspicious that they don’t turn their laser strength up appropriately… including for laser hair removal… will investigate this. Again otherwise the service is quite good and the job done is decent so I can’t knock them on that.“

“The team at LaserAway Corte Madera is absolutely amazing! The front desk staff are the nicest, happiest, most accommodating people — they make every visit such a great experience. Special shoutout to Paola for always being so friendly and welcoming! I also love working with Diana — she’s fantastic. Highly recommend LaserAway Corte Madera!“

“I had such a great experience at Haus of Marin! I had the DiamondGlow treatment with Fabi, and it was amazing. The front desk staff was super friendly. I even got to meet the founder, Jan, who was so kind. Everyone made me feel really welcome!“

“Ari gave me the best botox treatment that lasted forever! She’s also been great to consult with around personalizing my skin treatment plan. Super warm and friendly.“

“Love Clarice! Her facials are great, products work and a great person, too. Love visiting her beautiful space in Novato that is so comfortable and inviting! Highly recommended!“
