Brazilian Wax made bearable by Liliane – It was my first time for Brazilian Wax and just the thought of the pain in that area made me nauseous. Though waxing will never be enjoyable, Liliane made the experience bearable and as pain free as I imagine is possible. I was also impressed with the speed. She did the bikini wax, underarms, and half-legs in under half hour, while being very nice. Also I did not know how I would feel about having a perfect stranger that close to my bare private parts, but Liliane's professionalism an... read more

Maria is great with brazilian bikini! – I like Maria for brazilian bikini wax. Prior to her I went to one of those nail places on 25th and Park but I like the product that Maria uses. It doesn't stick too much to the skin so despite some pain it's not as bad. And she follows up with a cold compress so it's definitely worth the extra money. She's quick, doesn't spend time blabbing on and on and you're done in 10 minutes. Even when she takes out the ingrown hairs it's not as bad as the place I used to go to. I'd highly recomme... read more

BEST SALON DOWNTOWN – This salon is a great find. After trying a few salons that ranged from disappointing to disastrous I finally found my favorite New York salon. I recommend RAYMOND for haircuts and color. I have difficult hair and he patiently took the time to get it right. It was my first time going darker and I was quite pleased. Whilw I was getting my hair done I also got a pedicure and a manicure, which were very good. The girl that washed my hair gave me a head massage....I will be back to try their Facials and Mass... read more

great haircut, friendly service – I'd been thinking about getting bangs for a while, but my former stylist told me over and over that they "wouldn't be a good look." When that salon mysteriously closed one day, I found myself in Maria Bonita. The Citysearch reviews were excellent, so I figured I'd give it a try. I went to Roger, who agreed that bangs would be a good change for me, and I couldn't be happier. He gave me a nice, simple trim, along with bangs that I can either wear as bangs or let simply blend into the rest of m... read more

LILY HAS MAGICAL HANDS! – I was always very afraid of getting a brazilian bikini; but decided to give it a try two months ago after a friend told me about Lily who works at Maria Bonita. Not only she has a great conversation that was able to make me relax, she was neat, fast and very professional. After some painful past experiences on the waxing table I had in other places, I had to accept that my friends were right: Lily truly has two magical hands. I had no idea that a professional could make so much difference; but I'm w... read more

Regina is the Best!!!!! – I took my friend to Regina for her first time and it was not painful AT ALL for her. Regina is a really truly nice person, and she is an expert at reducing the pain. She seems actually concerned about her clients and she is very personable. I couldn't recommend her enough.

The best service ever! – I've gone there for two years now for all different services. I have referred alot of women to Maria for the most painless Brazilian wax known to WOMAN. I highly recommend her for anyone's first time and there after. She makes you feel at ease and soothes you with her techniques during the process. I have also seen very nice highlights come out from that salon. Good quality service, products and employees. THUMBS UP!!!!
