Went to her because I can walk there from my place which I love. She has a tiny studio in the back of her house, clean and bright. She was very knowledgeable about her profession and explained everything before doing the waxing. Cash or check only. Easy to schedule over email.

I ended up at Penelope's because of the ease and flexibility of scheduling with her, and now I'm never going anywhere else for waxing! She is kind and attentive, thorough and professional; her services are such a good deal for the quality of what you get!

Penelope's clean and airy studio is through her gorgeous backyard garden, making the whole experience feel light and friendly instead of dingy or clinical.

I can't recommend her enough!

Penelope look me last minute today (within 40 minutes of me calling)
As a working mother of two, I try and squeeze in my me time anywhere I can. I really appreciated her being so flexible for me.
Her place was cozy, had easy parking, and was supper cute! She also has gentle hands, I drifted in and out of sleep during the entire appointment.
Definitely recommend

This is a great place for routine maintenance. Super friendly and personalized! Penelope provides lot's of pampering and a full range of services. I hold back from giving her a 5 star rating because I do believe the resort salons which have complete spa treatments warrant that rating. Of course you pay a spa 3-4 times the prices at Penelope's.

Penelope is great--excellent aesthetician services at a very reasonable price with a flexible schedule. If you want a fru fru, over-priced spa experience, go to the Claremont. If you want a place you can afford for monthly or bi-monthly routine services, try Penelope. I've been going to her for over 10 years and have never been disappointed.

Penelope tints my eyebrows and eyelashes and does a much better job than any local salon I've been to. She is highly recommended.
