I've been going to Katie for years now and look forward to it every time. Afterwards, my skin is velvety soft and my spirit is confidently courageous. If you're looking for a rad human with mad skills, book an appointment because you found her.

Katie is the most amazing waxer. She has perfected her skill, ensuring painless waxes and ingrown hairs are a thing of the past. Especially impressive is her awareness of how your particular skin reacts. She really pays attention and with each subsequent appointment, she builds her knowledge of your skin and your body. With her deep knowledge of skin care and how it relates to the entire body, she uses those observations to adjust her technique to ensure the highest level of comfort for you. She also shares her observations with you, how they relate to other things happening in the body and helping you learn more about yourself. Never have I received this level of personalized and thoughtful care. She makes you feel totally accepted and cared for. Also of note is the beautiful, clean and cozy space she has designed. Soft diffused light falls from the skylight, creating a safe space where life's hard edges have been checked at the door. She is not just a waxer. She pours her heart and soul into her craft and her clients are the luckiest of beneficiaries. I cannot recommend her enough.

Wow! Katie is an absolute angel on earth. I live with MS and was hesitant about getting a wax due to mobility issues, I will never have to worry again. I was so taken care of and so much thought was put in to make sure I was comfortable. She was professional and funny and made the whole process so easy. Can’t wait to come back again soon!

I’ve been seeing Katie for Brazilians for the last couple years and I wouldn’t think of going to anyone else. Katie was referred to me by a good friend who had been seeing her for years, and spoke so highly of her personality and skill, I knew she’d be amazing… and she is! Katie is incredibly knowledgeable and skillful; her expertise and professionalism are beyond. She creates a welcoming environment and experience - I always look forward to my monthly visits with Katie; she is so authentic, caring and sweet. Highly recommend for a holistic and positive beauty experience!

Katie is AMAZING. I've been getting Brazilian waxes for almost 10 years now and Katie is by far the best specialist I have seen. She makes the experience as painless as possible and has helped me so much with all my ingrown hair problems I used to have. Her waxes are perfect, she never misses a spot, and she keeps the whole studio incredibly clean. Katie is also a wonderful person. She is dedicated to her work and to making her clients feel comfortable. I absolutely love going to see Katie every month. I can't recommend her enough, definitely book with her.
