Monet a Salon

I’ve been going to the lovely Diana at Monet Salon for laser hair removal on my legs. After only the 2^nd session, the change in the amount of hair was HUGE. After only the 3^rd session, I really have almost no hair on my legs. She is METICULOUS in her lasering, and let me tell you — that makes a huge difference in results. I’ve had laser elsewhere and never saw these kinds of results even after a full 6 sessions! This is partly bc of the quality of the laser Diana uses, but it’s also bc she truly is meticulous and thorough in lasering over each and every inch that you’ve paid for. Whereas at other laser clinics, they’re sort of haphazard and sloppy in making sure they truly are lasering the full area of what you’ve paid for — and that lack of attention to detail results in missed hairs!
I will never see anyone else but Diana for my laser hair removal — she is just wonderful. Not only is she highly skilled at what she does, but she is a lovely person to chat with and has a great personality /​energy. Her salon is very nicely decorated and has a wonderful atmosphere, as well as being extremely clean.

I will update this review in the future, but I wanted to let people know that, after 1(!) laser session on my legs, I can already tell a significant difference with hair regrowth!!!
Overall, I’m a pretty hairy girl (thanks to my double middle-​eastern genes). My hair regrowth, especially legs, is ridiculous – if I had time, I would need to shave my legs twice in a row to get exceptionally smooth legs. It has been 3 weeks since my first appointment, and it’s amazing how much less hair I have!!! I can go for 3 – 4 days without shaving (and probably could go longer, if it wasn’t summertime). I am very eager to see what the following sessions will bring.
Just an FYI, I have had laser hair removal on two other body parts, and even after full sessions for each part, I still have hair regrowth. There is something different about this laser!

I just had my 3^rd laser hair removal session with Diana and have had less hair regrowth than my 6 sessions at another studio in North Scottsdale. Normally I would assume the effect was cumulative but a substitute technician at the North Scottsdale studio might have accidentally confessed that a lower level was used due to my sensitivity to the laser and I had used a Groupon. :(
Back to Diana: I would highly recommend her to anyone. She is very sweet, professional, has awesome general life advice and very organized with appointment reminders. The salon is easy to find but just make sure you enter the salon studios entrance closest to 24^th street. The actual studio is very clean as is her equipment. If you see a Groupon/​Livingsocial, I would definitely grab that if you’ve ever debated laser hair removal treatment as it was a great deal and significantly more affordable compared to what I have seen online.
And just a tip for anyone who denies themselves laser hair removal because of sensitivity: Ask your PCP for a Rx: Topical lidocaine/​prilocaine and apply a copious amount 15 minutes before the procedure. It definitely helps! Although you might not need it with Diane’s treatments, I continue to apply it. If anything, it provides a little placebo effect. ;)

Diana is awesome, sweet, professional and makes me hair free! I have been going to Diana for laser treatments for about 8 months and have been very happy with the results. I started off with a one of the weekly plus deals, only to find out that her package deals were just as reasonable and available all the time. I waited to post a review, until I was confident in the results, so it’s time! If you are considering laser hair removal, Diana is the best. I have never once had any skin damage, or even been in pain during treatments. This summer I will definitely be her biggest advocate!

I love laser and laser loves me. Thank the Gods above for the invention of this miraculous hair removal system. Ladies, picture it: winter 2012. It’s cold and dreary, and you’ve been too lazy to shave all week because razors + goosebumps= hot mess. But what’s this? Your legs are smooth and luscious like ripe mango flesh??? Yes, oh yes, this too can be you. And your underarms, your bikini, and wherever else that tickles your fancy. Run, don’t walk to Diana’s cute, clean little salon near the Biltmore. She’s ab fab; you’ll love her long time.
Gents, she specializes in your hairy areas too, don’t be shy.
Most satisfying money ever spent.

I have been going to Diana ever since I moved to the Phoenix area in 2004. When I started going to her my hair was in bad shape. She worked with me on gettting it back to being healthy. She Cuts, Colors and Highlights my hair on a regular basis. I get so many compliments from people that I don’t even know. I would recommend her to anyone. She is an amazing person and hair stylist!
