Angel Face II

Cannot say enough good things about this place. I’ve been getting Brazilian waxes for about 5 years now and this is one of the best experiences I’ve had.
I recently moved to Austin from Dallas and from what I’ve found there are not a lot of stripless/​hard waxing places here. I went to European Wax Center (they give a discount for first time customers) and that was not a good experience. So after that I decided to give Angel Face II a try and it’s worth every penny.
The room I was in was so calming and Thais really knows her stuff. I’ve never had a more thorough wax. She really made sure to get every single hair (front and back) and even took some off my stomach which was awesome. I don’t know what that one review is talking about that they aren’t thorough here because I am smooth left, right, and center.
For as long as I’m in Austin I will keep going to Angel Face II. Thanks Thais!

When I first found out I was going to the beach for 7 days, I was concerned. And never in my wildest dreams did I imagine that I would eventually agree to have hot wax laid onto my lady parts. Surely there are worse things than having hot wax put on your bootyhole, but I can’t think of anything worse at the current moment.
Really though, Kimberly and her associate Thais run a small business here without the frills of a salon, very reasonable prices, while still making you feel comfortable. I have seen both ladies and they are professional, highly skilled in what they do, and offer a wide range of services. If you’ve got hair somewhere, they will remove it one way or another!
Pro tip: I use texting as a means to communicate with Kimberly (since its her business) and she has no staff. Don’t be discouraged if you don’t receive a return call or text immediately. She runs her own small business so don’t give up!

I have been going to Kimberly [and now Thais] for 5 years. I am over 50 with dry, thin skin with fine lines. Both Kimberly and Thais take great care of me with microderm and other facial treatments. She doesn’t offer the full-​frills spa-​like atmosphere. What she does offer is a locally owned, highly professional and exceptional outcome experience. When reading through the reviews, her business receives wonderful feedback on her waxing services, but there is so much. She also carries all of the products she uses at very good prices. I hope my review will encourage you to try this small business woman and know you are in very good hands and will be pleased you went.

I got my brazilian wax done here for the first time in my life. Yes painful at first but bearable. I recommend taking 3 – 4 ibuprophen an hour before your appointment. It makes the pain virtually gone during the wax. Thais does my wax every month and I love love love her! She makes me feel comfortable. and I never feel embarrassed about having my *woo hoo exposed. And I get a full complete wax: front and back. All that for $ 50 thats damn good. I just hope they never raise the price, cause its the best price out there! I have already brought her a new customer after referring one of my co workers/​friend, and she’s now a regular too 8)

Thais is amazing! It is so hard to find someone to do an eyebrow wax without taking away too much hair, and leaving your eyebrows looking unnatural. I love the way my eyebrows look after Thais waxes them — they are cleaned up perfectly/​thoroughly, yet still look very natural — not too thin like many salons like to do. And the high-​frequency wand she uses on my eyebrows after the wax is over is the greatest thing ever! Before Thais, every time I got an eyebrow wax, I was sure to breakout afterwards due to the irritation. The high-​frequency wand eliminates bacteria, and I’ve never had a breakout after a wax with Thais because of it. Usually, for this caliber of service you’re going to pay an arm and a leg, but an eyebrow wax is only $ 15! You’re really not going to find anything better! Thais is your woman! Trust me!

I’ve had eyebrow wax/​tint, microdermabrasion, and a chemical peel at Angel Face, with both of the aestheticians. All my experiences were great! They really know what they’re doing, and it’s impossible to feel nervous in the little haven of a room they’ve created; complete with low lights, pretty smells, and soft music. The prices are reasonable, I love how Brittany does eyebrows, and my acne and red marks made a significant improvement after I had the chemical peel. I’m definitely going back for another soon.

I discovered Kimberly when I got an online coupon for laser hair removal. I found that her machine and approach worked better than the other time that I had it, so I also purchased more treatments for the legs. I’m very happy with the results. I’m also very pleased with the service. Kimberly is extremely knowledgeable and professional. They are as flexible as they can be with rescheduling appointments, and even remind you a day before hand. The location is convenient, and the facilities are beautiful and relaxing. I recently purchased a special package for micro-​derm abrasion, and I’m looking forward to that. I can’t say enough good things about Angel Face II — definitely worth your business!

Angel Face II is a small, quaint, genuinely Austin, locally owned business. The owner, Kimberly, and her assistant, Thais, are both AMAZING… the brazilian waxes I have recieved there are by FAR the best I have ever had and I have frequented many spas. Her unique European stripless waxing system yields much less painful, baby smooth results. Waxing is the tip of the iceberg however, her extensive skin care knowledge and expertise is what truly sets Angel Face II apart. One look at their incredible complexions will have you convinced. As a bonus, I have never booked somewhere with such flexibility (you know, a 911 wax;)…)! Too bad there aren’t more stars!!!

Ok. I’m not reviewing any laser procedures that are done here. ONLY reviewing the brazilian waxing services.
You know what I like to expect when I get a brazilian? Hair removal. I mean, that’s a reasonable expectation to have when you ask someone to take the hair away from your snatch, right? — for all the hair, to actually be — taken away.
So, at a bare minimum… this is a service that should be rendered … pretty, thoroughly, right? *sigh* If only. Now I came here on the recommendation of a friend, and as far as that friend knows… I had a fantastic experience here. Essentially, when she asked me how everything went — I lied to spare her feelings.
Let’s start with the technique. I’m not a fan. Here’s how mine went:
Smear (sorry for a lack of a better term) the wax on
Then tug a little. Tug a little more. Tug a little more.
HELL TO THE NO!!! I am telling you right now – if I hadn’t been doing brazilians for the last 4 years, I probably would have given up at some point with this technique and left with a half stripped vajayjay. NO! This drove me nuts. Maybe this means I’m not a fan of the particular type of wax… but I have to believe that those who choose to use this type of wax have a more solid technique than, smear, little tug, little tug, little tug.
Here’s the thing, I haven’t TOUCHED myself with a razor since I was old enough to know better… so over the last couple of years of brazilianing — I’ve become pretty accustom to the «pain.» And typically, it’s NOT a painful experience for me. Sure, I have 1 particularly sensitive spot… but I get through it. :)
The next thing is — and I’ll spare you the EXACT details, but when I came home to find LOTS of little hairs still hanging out in several areas — I was appalled. I literally was just shocked. You don’t shell out $ 50+ so that you get a half assed job done, you know?
LIke I mentioned earlier, I’ve been getting brazilians done for 4 years. And in D-​town, I found the MOST AMAZING technician EVER. She was quick, thorough, the clean up process that she assisted with involved calendula oil — and she was able to hold a really engaging conversation with you through the whole process so that
A) You didn’t feel so awkward about a stranger staring straight at your vagina
and
B) The process went by faster.
I literally sent her an email the next day thanking her for being the complete badass that she is at rendering this particular service.
Essentially, my hunt for a great brazilianer is still underway. And I’m sad to say… Angel Face II was not where I found it. *sigh*

Thais was great! She made me feel really comfortable and was very professional.

Love Kimberly! I have been seeing her for 9+ years and will never go anyplace else.

I was referred to Kimberly at Angel Face by a friend who has been going to her for years. I mostly go to her for waxing, but have received facials from her as well. She is great at everything! She makes you feel very comfortable & is very quick if you need to make a quick appointment during the day in between things.
She books up very fast, but don’t let that deter you from going to see her! Expect to not get in the same day you call to make your appointment (unless she happens to have a cancellation that day, which just happened for me yesterday!) & if you’re happy with the results (which you will be), set your next appointment (s) before you leave!

I have nothing to complain about my visit to Angel Face II. The business is a house that’s functioning as commercial so don’t over look it. I past it once assuming it was a house only so don’t make that mistake like I did.
The reason for coming here was to try out 5 sessions of microdermabrasion (w/​Crystals) to help my face out. I came out loving it already. Most of the sebums that were out of my control came out like nothing. Gross, I know. 4 more sessions and I can’t wait for the next visit in 10 – 13 days.
It was a relaxing experience overall. Highly recommend guys or girls that needs to have their face scrubbed hard: D It stings so if you’re able to tolerate pain go for it. It’s not overwhelming pain so don’t let that put you off!

Zap! There’s goes the hair! Well, actually, it will take 5 more times but it felt like it was working. Not being a super hairy person (TMI?) I’ve not had laser done before. But I’m done with the indecision, the agony: Four blades or three? Aloe Strip or no aloe strip? Ladies cute pink or men’s silver sleek razor? The marketing assault needs to stop.
Anyhow, I found Angel Face II near my hood through a revshare deal. Made an appointment really easily and walked into a calm and pretty little place with a couple of rooms, complimentary water bottles and two very kind and reassuring women. We went through the steps (spot testing, various warnings) and then the cold, cold laser was placed on my flesh. From what I understand, this is a helluva lot better than the previous incarnation of this machine which was like hot rubber band snaps.
My appt was at 2 and we were finished at 2:34 after making my next five appointments. I can’t compare the laser tool to anything else and the efficacy is TBD since you have to do so many treatments but this is what I really like about this place: It’s homey. It’s small. It’s a one woman show. We had a reasonable and intelligent conversation about life and work and body hair and I never once felt uncomfortable or out of my element. And when someone’s zapping hair off your body, that’s pretty impressive.

I cannot say enough good things about Kimberly. She is such a great Aesthetician and is truly a miracle worker! I wish I could go to her more. I HIGHLY recommend her, needless to say. She is so knowledgeable about skin and does not make you feel guilty if you do have problems.

I went to Kimberly a few weeks ago for a facial and I have to say it was the best I have ever had! She was so professional and took time to talk to me about any questions I had during my appointment. I found her business by way of a Buy With Me coupon and from my past experience, the coupons can be a hit or miss but her place is truly worth it! I have already made my next facial appointment with her and will be making all my future wax appointments with her after reading these reviews!

I focused so much on getting my skin cleared up before my wedding, that I totally overlooked the importance of texture until literally the week before.
This was my first microderm treatment, and it was so much more than I was expecting. While the actual microderm treatment was slightly uncomfortable, the rest of the treatment was absolutely relaxing and pampering, just like a facial. Angel Face is a relaxing spa environment, so it was a nice way to build a treat into my wedding week.
Kimberly is super nice and knowledgeable. Thanks to you Unilocalers, I knew I would be in good hands and in the end, It visibly improved my face’s texture and added a nice glow to my skin for my wedding day.
If you are lucky enough to live in Austin, go see Kimberly!

The best skin care salon in Austin. Reasonable and Kimberly is amazing.
When you are waxed by her, you will be happy, it is amazing how this wax works!
The wax is a special kind of wax, hard wax! Kimberly makes you feel very relaxed and comfortable. She’s the best!

I am thrilled to find Kimberly! Encouraged by the Unilocal reviews, relative proximity and reasonable price, I called for an appointment. I left a message mid-​afternoon on a Thursday and was discouraged that I’d not heard back from her by the end of the day. She called back, however, mid-​afternoon on Friday, and I was able to schedule a brow wax for the next day.
When I arrived, I realized that I’d passed this place a thousand times without noticing it. It was pleasant and modest, so much so that I knocked before entering. Kimberly greeted me warmly and made me feel instantly at ease. She was also accomodating when I asked if she could add a service at the last minute. I was in and out quickly and could not be more pleased with the brow/​lip wax she provided. All in all, I would check «extremely satisfied.»

I couldn’t possibly say enough about how amazing Kimberly is. I visited her after I complained about how expensive a Brazilian wax was, especially when it hurt and damaged my skin and started to grow back again almost immediately. My good friend recommended Kimberly and I’m so grateful that she did!
I’ve had Brazilian waxes monthly for the past two years (at half the price of the place I used to go!). Kimberly uses a special kind of wax – hard wax – from Switzerland that actually inhibits future hair growth, so after visiting her for several months in a row I started to notice a change. I also have had facials and microdermabrasion with Kimberly, both with excellent results. My skin looks and feels incredible.
Kimberly has products for sale if you’re interested. They’re decently priced, despite my initial sticker shock. $ 25 for daily facial cleanser? No way! But my first bottle lasted for about four or five months, so I pay it happily now. She has great sunscreen, too! I use it as a moisturizer, and I have never been happier with how smooth and moisturized and acne-​free my skin is.
Thank you so much, Kimberly! I’ll be calling you soon for my next appointment!
