    The absolute best! I’ve been going here for years for sugaring and I can’t recommend them enough. I feel very comfortable around all their estheticians, + they’re flexible and understanding. Love them SO much

    I love Habit and I wouldn't go anywhere else for sugaring/tinting needs. I've been a regular of Carrie's since 2020 after being a long time customer of a popular chain.

    Carrie is professional, thorough, and overall just a rad human being. Habit is always clean, has a beautiful vibe/aesthetic. I'd trust anyone she hires!

    10/10 - I have been seeing Carrie for years for my brows and sugar brazilian. Using sugar instead of wax was a game changer - I have curly hair and ingrowns used to be a big problem. For my brows, they have to be tinted as well as shaped and she always gets both perfect. She keeps up with the current brow trend to give me options. Tip - make sure to book your next appointment when you are leaving because she can fill up. Luckily, the times I have had to see the other people for my services they had the same level of care and quality. You can't go wrong. Bonus, the place is one of the most beautiful businesses I have been to. Every detail is thought out.
