Splendor Wax Studio

I’m here every five weeks! I followed Lauren here she’s been my waxer since day 1. She’s quick, GENTLE (as much as ripping hair off can be) haha but really for some reason it doesn’t hurt with her. She remembers everything about your life and keeps the convo going. I enjoy my time there and her memory remains for the full 5 weeks till it’s time to see her again haha. TMI.

I found this place off of Groupon and wasn’t disappointed! I went in for a Brazilian and honestly this was the first time I had a comfortable wax. Loved it! Thank you!

Came up on this gem from groupon. Now im hooked I love lauren she is very thorough. The quickest and (almost) painless Brazilian I’ve had. The suite is very cute and clean with a one person nail salon attached. Book now you will not be disappointed!

Lauren was amazing! Super professional while easy going. It was my first time getting anything but my eyebrows waxed, and I was completely at ease. I found her through Groupon, and will be happy to come back and pay her full price!

Lauren was by far the most down to earth waxer I’ve met. She makes you feel extremely comfortable and is careful with her work. The salon was easy to find, is very cute, and clean. I’ve reviewed other salons that offer Brazilians, but I love that Lauren owns her own studio space and runs her own business. I was going between a couple of places in San Diego that I’ve given great reviews too, but I always found stray hairs. I’ll be going back to Lauren for the next one!

This was my first time getting waxed! And I have to say I loved it! Lauren was great she made me forget that I was completely exposed and the pain was bearable! I would totally recommend!

Lauren is great! Both my visits have been outstanding. Her place is very clean. Easy too book, highly recommended!

Found her through groupon. Awesome deal for first time customers! She always asks if the temp of the wax is ok and makes you feel comfortable even if it’s the first time you met. Lauren is quick and efficient and great at what she does! I will be definitely going back. I have found my new wax esthetician! FYI Go towards the back of the building and take the stairs next to the back parking lot, it leads straight up to her studio.

Hands down a 5 star review… Lauren was a complete professional while still maintaining a personable connection. Unfortunately I had to bring my toddler to the appointment… I walked from home so I had my cumbersome jogging stroller– and I was having one of those super stressful/​sleep deprived mornings. Lauren handled me with care but complete efficiency… I was in and out of there in less than 20 minutes. She provided my son with snacks and water, and was totally cool with him making all kinds of noises with his toys. BEST PART IS… She helped me with my heavy stroller down the stairs. I wanted to cry with gratitude. I can’t tell you how grateful I was for that kind gesture, which went above and beyond what I expected of her. She rocked as a professional, and she rocked as a genuinely considerate and thoughtful human being.

Lauren is amazing and I have been going to her for my waxing for as long as I can remember. She has always been personable and makes you feel comfortable. The entire visit we talk about just about everything and by the end you don’t even realize your done. She is OCD like myself and makes sure she gets every hair. The studio is very chic, clean and comfortable. I highly recommend Lauren. I’ve tried others, but always go back to her.

I was lucky enough to find this place and got a Brazilian this afternoon. EXCELLENT service. I was badly overgrown and anticipating pain but her technique was fantastic. Great little place, serves coffee and tea while you wait. Highly recommend this place. I will be back!

Lauren is so amazing! I got my first Brazilian done by her and she’s so sweet! She talks the whole time so you don’t think too much about the process. She is so professional and such a nice person in general. She jumped right in to the process and didn’t waste any time. My friend came with me and ended up getting her eyebrows done by her because she’s amazing! She really knows what she’s doing & is the best! Her work is amazing. I left there feeling awesome. Highly recommend!

Love, love Lauren! She makes an awkward, uncomfortable, painful experience feel like you’re hanging out with best gf, she makes it the most comfortable and easiest experience possible. Very professional, highly recommend and LOVE the studio. Don’t forget to look for groupon if you’re a first timer!

Great find! This studio is hidden in a secluded business area of Mission Valley. I found this place using a Groupon deal. The studio is located in the middle of Rio Sur Complex and the staircase leading directly to the studio Suite 310, is in the middle of the complex.
The studio is very chic, clean and comfortable. A detailed instruction is sent before the appointment to ensure you don’t waste your money. Wipes are also provided to use before waxing procedure begins. Lauren was very professional, she made me feel comfortable by answering all my questions, explaining what to expect after waxing, the discomfort I am about to feel and the after care.

I first met Lauren through a Groupon and instantly loved her! Not only is she great at what she does, she’s super friendly as well! I’ve been waxed by other estheticians before and there was always that awkward conversation but with Lauren I felt so comfortable! I’ve been going to her for awhile now and definitely consider her a friend, I always look forward to my appointments and catching up with her! Unfortunately I am relocating to the east coast and am dreading the thought of having to find someone new whose half as good and friendly as Lauren!!! I HIGHLY recommend Splendor Wax Studio!!!

My wife and I see Lauren every 6 – 7 weeks, she is amazing!!! I have been to several other places locally and in other states, she is hands down the best. I would recommend her to everyone from my daughter to my grandma. She is incredibly friendly and feels like a best friend at this point. Her studio is always clean and she takes great pride in her work and her shop.

First time customer? Check out their Groupon wax deal! That’s how I came across this place and I regret nothing.
I had to reschedule my original date to the day after due to unexpected events. Lauren was understanding and accommodating which I was thankful for.
The wax studio was in this lot called Rio Sur (I think) with various businesses inside. Wax Splendor was located behind the lot so you have to enter and go around then park. The stairs there will lead you right to the front door.
The décor was nice and cute, and there were amenities such as wipes, disposable underwear and candy. Granted I didn’t use any of those but it was cool that she had them there. Lauren also told me that she usually gives out exfoliation gloves to use on your skin to prevent ingrowns. That’s a first!
Onto Lauren. She definitely talks a lot so it’s a good distraction from the pain. It amazed me how many words she can speak in a minute lol She was nice and very professional. She used soft wax with the strips for my Brazilian and I barely felt any pain! I mean it still stung but I think that was the most mild pain I’ve experienced yet. How was that possible?
Anywho, she also does a $ 5 discount if you regularly go back in for a wax every 4 – 6 weeks. Awesome! Overall, I’d most likely go back and recommend. Thumbs up.

First time ever getting waxed. I was scared but my girlfriends at work talk about how great it is. I found a groupon and called to ask questions and Lauren told me she could honor the price for me if I wanted cause I was a first time waxer and didn’t know if I might change my mind.
Let it grow for five weeks and went in today. She talked me through the whole thing as well as carried fluent and casual comfortable conversation throughout. It was painful, because it was my first time, but I barely noticed because she was so personable.
I definitely recommend this place and will be going back next time I wax.

Lauren is very personable and gentle. Enjoyed our discussion of local cuisine. It totally took my mind off of the wax, and didn’t feel any pain at all. If you park in the back of the building, her studio is right up the stairs, convenient location. Highly recommend!

Lauren is quick, friendly and efficient. If you are looking for a professional, easy to talk to waxer Lauren is it. I like when I feel like my session is over quickly, with Lauren she puts you at ease and the wax is completed before you know it. Her salon is clean and smells wonderful :-). I always worry about getting a «Groupon» wax, but this was great. I would definitely go back again. Park in back and walk up the stairs to find her Suite right at top of the stairs.
