I had my first appointment today with Jana for a Brazilian and eyebrow waxing. She made me feel totally comfortable when I explained my hesitations with hard wax. She did an amazing job. Super professional and made me feel right at home. I’m very much looking forward to my next appointment with her! ❤️
