I've been going to Wax Skin Lounge for eyebrow tint and wax consistently for over a year. I've also gone for underarm and leg wax, and for facials + dermaplaning. Every single service is so well done. The space is beautiful, every aesthi is professional and knowledgeable, and it's always a positive experience. I feel instantly more confident when I have my fresh brows. After my facial + dermaplaning last month, everyone commented that I was "glowing" and looked "so beautiful" for like a week or two after (I am now going to be hooked on that service... not only was it relaxing, but I really did have a dewy glow to my skin). They sell great skincare products and honestly I can't recommend them more. I can't believe it took me this long to finally write a Google review. Convenient location in Fulton Market, too. HIGHLY recommend!

Krysta did an amazing job with my hair removal service. She was very professional, gentle, and made the whole experience comfortable. She explained everything clearly and made sure I felt at ease throughout the appointment. Highly recommend her!

I’ve been going to the West Loop location of The Wax and Skin Lounge for 4 years now, and it never disappoints. The real plants are what initially drew me in, they’re beautiful and create such a relaxing, calming ambiance. I started with their lash lift & tint and later tried the brow wax & tint, which are now my absolute favorite services. The team is incredibly knowledgeable, and I’ve worked with multiple specialists who have all been consistent with beautiful, long-lasting results. The first time I got a lash lift & tint, Haley walked me through every step and explained what to expect, which made me feel completely comfortable throughout the experience. Truly, I cannot recommend The Wax and Skin Lounge enough. Between the amazing results, the welcoming atmosphere, and the expert team, it’s always a top-notch experience.
