The Waxing Studio

It seems a bit unnatural to say this, but I actually look forward to my monthly Brazilian wax with Teri. Seriously! I have been visiting this place for almost a year now, and I am always amazed with my consistently awesome experience.
Sometimes, I even tell my friends that it is my monthly therapy session. Who knew waxing could be… enjoyable?
Appointments are booked in 15-​minute slots, and I am ALWAYS in and out of my appointment within 5 minutes. Do not mistake a quick appointment with a poor-​quality wax; no way! Teri and the office staff are just THAT efficient. (Who really wants to endure a long Brazilian wax, anyway??) Even with amazing time management, they never make you feel rushed.
Teri is OCD (in a great way!) and will tweeze any remaining hairs post-​wax. She will get them ALL. When she leaves the room, she will tell you to check to make sure you are happy with your wax. If you have any hairs remaining, she *wants* you to call her back to the room to fix it. I have never had to do that, but I would definitely feel comfortable asking for a re-​tweeze or re-​wax. Teri makes you feel THAT comfortable.
Also, never be afraid to ask questions. Teri will take the time to understand your skin and tailor her service to YOU. She is fun and upbeat, but she is also very good at soothing your worries. A year into waxing, I tell her I am nervous every time, and she still patiently coaches me through it. She will give you little tips on how to reduce pain, and they work — to the point that you barely feel anything. (I would be skeptical reading that, too, especially because this is super sensitive skin we are talking about. Trust me!)
If you are unsure about trying waxing, GO WITH TERI! I have tried several other waxing places before this one, and the Waxing Studio on Burnet is by far my favorite. The staff, and especially Teri, will make you feel comfortable and gorgeous in your skin. The vibe of the place is relaxing and spa-​like, not anxiety-​inducing and judgmental. Take ibuprofen 30 minutes beforehand, wear comfy, loose clothing, and you will be good to go.
Whether you are getting your first-​ever wax or just looking for a new waxing place, book a visit with Teri. It will be so worth it, and she will make you feel beautiful.
GET IT, GIRL!

Danielle was great! There was no wait time and I was a little nervous at first but she made me feel super comfortable! She kept up a fun conversation so that my mind wasn’t on the pain and yet managed to do such a quick and perfect job. It was a 40 min appointment but I was out in half the time. No mess & the ambience is great. I’m definitely coming back to Danielle :)

I’ve been hitting up Jessica for regular bikini waxes since spring and I’ll never let someone else rip my hair out after her. She can get you tidied up and neatly shaped in 10 minutes flat, 15 if you’re of Italian descent, and then you’re on your way with no residual pain. I’ve never once been left with bumps or itchiness or ingrown hairs. 5 stars well earned.
(Also, Whitney left The Waxing Studio shortly after my first review and I don’t know where she went but Jessica has more than filled the void!)

The Waxing Studio was a phenomenal experience!!! Despite getting my hairs ripped off my body. I’ve been to many waxing places in Austin and Dallas and The Waxing Studio really changed my waxing experience. First off the receptionist was more than friendly on the phone and in person. They had a professional form to fill out. The waiting room, waxing room and bathroom were very clean. My waxer, Brandi, was not only kind but made me feel comfortable. She used techniques that really minimized the pain and were effective. There was plenty of cleaning products so you don’t walk away like a duck feeling sticky. I really felt like this was my best experience. Not rushed at all. Honestly, I usually get nervous and anxiously erupting I go but they made my waxing experience fantastic. I will definitely come back again!!!

Fair prices and amazing service. I got my first Brazilian done by Jessica and I’m totally going back. She was very quick and efficient, absolutely no complaints. Totally wasn’t awkward, even though some strange chick is ripping hair out of your hoohas like it’s no big deal (it really isn’t, I signed up for it after all). Did it hurt? Sure. As much as I expected? Nah. Was it because I was high as a kite off pain meds? Maybe. Will it hurt less later? Absolutely.
Be sure to tip your esthie well if you were happy with the service!

I was in and out in no time! The staff made me feel very comfortable which is what you want when a complete stranger is working with your lady bits and ripping hair out. Gold medal all the way.

I have been several times to see Teri. I love her. She is wonderful. The staff is friendly and welcoming from the time you walk in to the time you walk out. It is very easy to get an appointment. I have called at the last minute several times and they were able to accommodate me at the last minute which was great!
This is the only place I will go for a facial or wax here in Austin. I completely trust Teri with any part of my body.

Jessica was incredible. My first Brazilian, not from here, was a terrible experience and she was honest about what to expect, chatted with me through the whole thing, was very fast and thorough. I will be seeing her again in 4 weeks

Love this place. The staff is so friendly. The space is beautiful and very clean. Easy to get in and out. Booking via Unilocal is my favorite part. So easy and convenient from booking to service and payment. I’ve never been a big fan of waxing … I only need lip and chin twice a month, and it’s been hard to find a place that does those two services well. The Waxing Studio does them amazingly well.

Absolutely loved this place! Couldn’t have asked for a better esthetician. Teri was so awesome and laid back and on point. She could make any first timer feel so comfortable and at ease. The facility itself is nothing less of awesome too. Very zen and harmonious. Oh and let’s talk bout the time it took: less than 15 min! I would recommend this place time and time again.

My experience was good from beginning to end. I felt like the staff was very patient, friendly, and professional. The lady that performed my services did an exceptional job!

I love coming to the Waxing Studio. Everyone is professional and very helpful. I have been using your services for two years now and am treated like gold. Mia is not just the lady who does my waxing she is a friend, and every time I come in for a wax it is like catching up with a close friend again. I have never been disappointed nor have felt uncomfortable, in fact I feel like part of the family. Thank you for all that you do.

All the ladies here do a great job so you can choose any of them and you will be sure to get great service. Claire and Jessica are two of my favorites. It also pays to be a regular repeat customer. I racked up $ 42 in points and applied them to my tab to get a super cheap bikini and eyebrow wax.

This is absolutely my go-​to place whenever I need a wax.
Their pricing is fair, they’re locally owned and operated, all of the estheticians are really cool and easy to talk to, and best of all, THEY’RE QUICK.
I don’t know about you, but I’ve had more than a couple nightmarish waxing experiences that take forever, burn you, and leave unwanted hair behind. The Waxing Studio does what they proclaim to do: wax.
That’s more than you can say for most places, unfortunately.
They also have this really awesome loyalty program (no stupid punched cards needed, thank god) that gives you great discounts!
A caveat: I have only gotten leg waxes here. I can’t speak to their proficiency regarding other areas of the body.
Regardless, I definitely recommend trying this place out!

Really good experience. Got a Brazilian and underarm waxing done by Clare. She was great. Quick. Friendly and made it a pleasant experience.

My experience here was very meh. When I walked in for a brow wax, I specifically mentioned that one of my brows has been taking on a different shape than the other. I didn’t want to do anything drastic, but I asked if they would be able to get the two shapes somewhat closer in appearance. I was told that it wouldn’t be an issue. After years of spending upward of $ 40 bucks for brow waxes in NYC, I was thrilled to hear them say they could tackle my issue for 20 bucks… a bit too good to be true.
Instead, when I got home and was able to look at my brows once the redness and swelling had gone down, I saw that they were now further apart in appearance than they were to begin with.
A few days later, I had received a call asking how my appointment went. I chose not to say anything because by this point, I knew that I would not be returning to give them another go, so it was not worth going over what had happened. In their defense, however, they tried to do their due diligence.
A positive: no breakout from the wax and the wax lasted a while (although maybe in my case I wish it wouldn’t have).
I think The Waxing Studio would be absolutely great for someone who has a set-​in-​stone shape to work with, but if you need something fixed or adjusted, I’m not sure they really know how to work with you.

The interior decoration of this place is really cute — creative and clean. I got Danielle who was lovely to talk to (and talked enough that it distracted me from the pain). Had a great experience here. One downside is that you can’t leave just a tip on a card here; I used a Groupon and don’t carry cash so I wasn’t able to tip my waxer. If you go with their Groupon bring cash!

I can’t say enough great things about this place. I’ve been back several times since my last review, and have seen Mia every time. She has a way with making a not-​so-​pleasant experience… wonderful. We end up chatting and laughing the whole time, I don’t even realize I’m being waxed. Mia is also extremely thorough and quick!
The space is still adorable, and they are great about working with my schedule.

I had been going to an unnamed wax studio which I did enjoy but kept getting breakouts all over my face from some double dipping in the wax. No one wants acne all up in their brow area!
It was just by chance that I drove up to the Waxing Studio and asked if they had any appointments available. Booking an appointment was a cinch and Carly was very quick and sweet.
We talked about growing my eyebrows in a little bit for the trendy fuller look and to get rid of what she deemed a «sperm hook» (lovely term! haha) on the top. By the way, ever since she mentioned that hook I can’t stop seeing it on other people and I want to just yell get rid of that thing!
My brows are looking very nice and I love the location, such a quick stop off of work.
Also, whatever candle they have in the front is amazing. I dunno if they sell them or not but I’d be a buyer!

I have a very personal confession to make: I had never ever had a wax «down there» up to about a month ago. So, when I was shopping around for a place to calm my nerves about this big step in my womanly-​hood, The Waxing Studio was recommended to me.
I was able to get an appointment within the next couple of days and was randomly given to Mia. I AM SO GLAD I GOT MIA. I mean, c’mon folks, this is a STRANGER who is going to be handling your NETHER REGIONS. I was terrified. But quickly after I met Mia my nerves were immediately calmed and we were even able to joke about the fact that she was seeing my hoo-​ha.
I’m not gonna lie, girls, that first wax was the utter most pain I had ever been through in my entire life. I was on the verge of tears. Mia apologized profusely, told me that if I trusted her and started doing this regularly, it would get less painful and would end up changing my hoo-ha’s life. After some time away and some guts, I scheduled another appointment yesterday.
Mia was totally right. The pain already wasn’t as bad as the first time and she really has a way with words to get your mind off the whole experience of someone ripping hair out of the most sensitive area of your body. She’s amazing. My vagina and I are so happy to have met her.
