A Gentle Touch

I have been coming here for my facials, acid peels, and hair removal for a little over 10 years now.
I have recommended my friends to Soheila and they have been satisfied with her for many years. The facility is extremely clean and smells very nice always.

She does a very good job at explaining electrolysis, how it works and the treatment plan. The place is very clean and relaxing. However, Soheila herself is kind of… cold. I felt very rigid when I was there. Felt like I was in a principal’s office. So I made a follow up appointment 2 weeks after my initial 24 mins treatment which was $ 74 (yes I timed it because I heard horror stories about these places). It was a Monday morning at 10am, first appointment. I tried calling the Sunday and Monday morning to cancel because I had an emergency at work and they needed my help. It was raining really hard so I left work at 12:30pm after 17hrs of being up and moving. I called her and attempted to explained, she rushed me off and said she is busy and i would be charged $ 80 for the missed appointment and she would call me back to reschedule. I found it absurd that #1, she never called me on the Friday to confirm the appointment as she did while I was waiting in her office the first time. #2, my appointment was the first after a weekend, so if I called to cancel at 24hrs, she would never get the message and so I would be charged anyways. #3 since she is like the only electrolysis person in the area, I was willing to pay the $ 80 and continue my treatment… she never called back! I attempted to call numerous times… no response. So I guess I will just continue my monthly laser treatment for life. Too bad there is no other in the area!

I went to A Gentle Touch for permanent makeup. I am very pleased with the results. Sohelia worked with me to design my eyebrows. I wanted very gently curved eyebrows and she suggested a more dramatic curve. She drew them on so I could see what both would look like. I agreed with her. She also tried several different colors on my skin for my eyebrows (not permanent, just applied to my forehead). I had eyeliner done at the same time. At first I was disappointed because most of the color in my eyebrows faded, but she had told me to come back for a touch up in 6 weeks where she repeated the entire process at no additional charge! My eyebrows look great and my eyeliner looks great also.
By the way, unlike 2008, she is in a one story office with a bathroom. It is quiet and private.

Great place!!!

Where do I begin? You know when they tell you that sometimes people come into your life and you are forever changed? Well for me, that person would be Soheila. I started coming to her roughly 4 ½ months ago to treat my unwanted hair and as of my session today, you would think I’m a completely different person. «A Gentle Touch» is the most accurate name you could give Soheila’s business, as she has made me feel so comfortable and at ease during my treatments that it’s like a routine visit to the spa.
From the music in the background to the fun conversation, she makes every effort to make her clients feel comfortable and at home. Even from my consultation before my first session, Soheila made sure that I knew the difference between the types of electrolysis, what she would use to treat different areas and why, and how much time it would take before I saw the results. She was spot on with everything. She also made a terrific suggestion for a numbing cream which definitely helped in areas like my chin and upper lip.
I have been coming to her consistently for the last 4 ½ months and the results I have seen are tremendous. No amount of plucking, waxing, threading, or laser gave me the results she has in such a short amount of time and the confidence I now have with clearer, hair free, smooth skin, is priceless. At the end of every session, she also takes the time to go over skin and hair-​care ideas with me and I have followed every one of her suggestions and the results are so dramatic that my friends even do a double take.
If you are looking for a caring, gentle, and non-​judgmental person to go to for hair removal, and one who runs her business with the utmost honesty and integrity, then Soheila is the one you should see. I would and have whole-​heartedly recommended her to everyone that I know.

I’ve been going to Soheila for various types of treatments and I absolutely love her! She is passionate, organized, and insightful. Although I am one of her many customers she always remembers everything I have told her and she always asks after my family. She does a great job removing my unwanted hair and I even go to her for facials. She is knowledgable and always gives me tips for maintaining my skin. I had previously tried other electrolysis offices, however Soheila is the best. Trust me A Gentle Touch pretty much sums up Soheila … simply the best

I’ve been going to Soheila since October, after years of plucking, waxing, laser, and electrolysis. My face was a mess, and I was dealing with laser-​induced hair growth, so I’d pretty much given up. After only a few months, I see a huge difference. I can’t really express how much relief I feel — this was a problem that I’ve spent thousands of dollars on, I only wish I’d gone to her years ago.
She looked at the nature of my unwanted hair and chose a method that she thought would be most effective. This method (multi-​needle Galvanic) requires considerable skill on the part of the practitioner and very few electrologists use this method anymore. Sohelia is amazing with it, and it has turned out to be the only method that worked for me, and FAST. As long as you go in consistently and take your advice, you will see dramatic results.
And she’s also a lovely person and a great listener :)

I went here for electrolysis. However, they also do permanent make-​up, and skin care. Very clean/​sanitary
electrolycian’s name is Soheila Biria-she’ll be the tall, beautiful brunette w/​the porcelain skin. Her skin is impeccable, and definately encourages one to keep up on regular facials…
I went in for a (free) consultation where she educated me on the differences between blend and short-​wave techniques, and was generous enough to offer me a FREE test patch so that I could not only see, but FEEL the difference btwn. the 2 methods. Very patient. Another thing, she’s fast and not intentionally slow to try and cheat you out of your money. She chrgs. in 15 min. incriments. I booked 30 mins. and she took care of 2.5 areas… all in 30 mins…(of course it varies according to the individual/​procedure) Soheila has been in the business for 14 yrs. and it shows, ladies… check her out…
