Queen Bee Salon & Spa

My wife has been going to Queen Bee for years. Last year she suggested that I go for a «clean up.» So I met with Candi in Culver City for a consultation. While I was a little ambivalent, Candi warmed me up to the idea of waxing my front and back. A few weeks later I had my first appotinment with Candi. She thoughtfully explanined the procedure to me and took her time to make sure I was comfortable. While the first time was intimidating and a little painful, I left feeling good about the experience. It’s now 8 months later since my first visit and I have seen Candi every two months since that first day. My visits are fun, I look forward to seeing Candi and my waxing is no longer painful. Candi is warm, expert and kind and would would recommend her to any guy looking for a comprehensive clean up. Thank you Candi and Queen Bee for great service!

This was the easiest wax I have ever had. I have been waxing for 4 years and have had a variety of different experiences. This was the best by far. This place is adorable. The staff was very friendly. The wax was painless and not awkward and not a lot of moving around. I had Jen. She was great. It’s not cheap but no wax is and this place is $ 10 – 20 dollars less than what I was seeing around this area at other places. I will definitely be back regularly and can’t wait to use their reward system points for a facial!

I’ve been to the Brentwood location twice. There is free parking in the back and the interior is one of the cutest places I have ever seen. I saw Jodi the first time for a bikini wax, she was great, quick and painless. The second time was last minute so Jodi wasn’t available. I can’t remember who I saw, she was on the young side. She did okay, not as great as Jodi but I will definitely return.

Once you get waxed at Queen Bee you never go anywhere else! I usually go to their Culver City location. Now that I’ve moved I go to the location on San Vicente, right by Brentwood Country Mart. I went in last week for a bikini wax. My appointment was with Nicole V.
Nicole is great. She is so sweet and did an amazing job! Queen Bee is royalty in the waxing world. I have sent so many friends their way. It is painless due to the amazing technique Jodi and her team have mastered. Queen Bee is also the best place for facials, eyebrows and nails.

WAX ON
Full Monty is usually around $ 50 bucks but why pay that much when there’s barely anything to wax. The apprentices charge $ 25 and they do a pretty decent job.
WAX OFF

I love Queen Bee! Both this location and Culver City. I have been a regular customer for over 5 years and have always received pleasant, courteous and professional service. I have had waxes, facials, and eye brown waxing and tinting from various «bee’s» and have always received excellent service with wonderful results. I always recommend Queen Bee to my friends, in fact, many of friends are regular Queen Bee clients as well. You can book online or by phone and without fail every interaction I have had has been nice and helpful.

I have been going to Queen Bee in Brentwood for some years now and I feel the need to show the respect they deserve. I have tried out a lot of the «bee’s» and I have found my personal favorite, Jammy. Jammy does a perfect Brazilian and brow wax. I love my brow arch and I am always happy w/​my Brazilian because she literally gets every hair! What I also dig about this place is the ease of making appointments and they always email me w/​a response less than 24 hours of my booking request online.

Got a fantastic BeeSpoke facial from Yvonne M. last week. Love the thorough extraction & she gives an amazing hand & foot massage. For the first time in a year my rosacea seems to be under control. Have been getting unsolicited complements on my «perfect» skin. Cannot recommend Yvonne highly enough!

although I usually go to the culver city location I decided to check out the Brentwood location since I needed an appointment sooner than later! I love everything about this brand. Ellie took care of me and she was so informative and knowledgeable about products I should use in between my sessions! thank you queen bee for always taking care of me and catering to my crazy last minute schedules!

Love love love Queen Bee!!! The waxes are excellent (I saw Jammie, and she was a sweetheart) and it was the most painless waxing experience I’ve had in a salon. The service is quick, the salon is super clean and really cute, and their online booking process was super easy! Absolutely would recommend.

The «Bees» are very nice. The waxes are great. The service is quick. And the décor is SO CUTE!

Love Queen Bee this location and the Culver City location. All the «Queen Bees» are nice, pleasant, and hospitable. While I was waiting to get wax they offer me tea, water, and wine :)
If there is such a thing as painless Brazilian waxing the girls at Queen Bee have mastered the technique, must be the wax but also the aestheticians. Plus they are very clean and sanitary.
Give them a try you won’t regret it.

Love making my appts here via email because the response time is lightening fast.
I will usually see Yvonne for waxing. Yvonne is super efficient. Before you know it, you’re done! Waxing is not the most comfortable experience but Yvonne makes the experience go by quickly and as painless as possible.

Came in today for the first time for a facial. I had Yvonne. I called this morning and was lucky to get a same day appointment! Such a relaxing experience. Thought the facial was amazing! Great with extractions! Felt like she really gave my skin a thorough deep cleaning. It has been a long time since my last facial (years!). I didn’t feel like I was pressured to buy any products either which is always refreshing! I already made my next appointment with Yvonne for next month! Looking forward to it!

I have been a loyal client of Queen Bee Salon since the days of Jodi’s converted garage (10 years ago!?), followed her to the Culver City Bungalow before rejoining that this Brentwood location opened so close to my former office. I’ve tried other salons in L.A. and SF, and I have never found any place I like better. Queen Bee is my go-​to for Brazilian upkeep.
Owner Jodi is the best, and she sets the bar high for her team both at the front and behind the scenes; everyone is friendly and professional. Level of service is fantastic, and it begins with booking your appointment: it’s super easy to book (you can call, fill out a request form online, or email; you will always get a response within 24 hours). Unlike other online booking systems I’ve seen at big chain wax centers, rest assured an actual person put your name and appointment time on the books, matching you with a specific waxer not just someone who happens to be available when you check in.
You’re always welcomed with a smile and an offer for water/​tea/​wine, and the space itself is a relaxing escape tucked away off the main shopping area of Brentwood. A major plus is the validated parking in this high-​traffic area. While you’re hanging out in the airy waiting room you keep busy browsing the retail selection. It’s a great place to stop for a last minute gift! It is rare for you to arrive and have to wait past your scheduled time. (Punctuality is priority here to ensure a high level of service, so make sure you arrive on time or 5 minutes early so you don’t lose your spot!)
I used to book my appointments exclusively with Jodi, but once I started trying trainees I eventually found that every waxer is great. They’re trained by Jodi herself, and that means your appointment is quick (usually 15 – 20 minutes) and as painless as possible… seriously, I’ve had some nightmare waxes, and these girls KNOW what they’re doing.
Queen Bee has managed to make a regular Brazilian appointment spa-​like and something to look forward to.

a lady did my eyebrow. It’s ok but it’s easy to make a same day appointment.

I went to Queen Bee Salon for the first time this past week.
Ellie was FANTASTIC! Honestly, I will be coming back to Queen Bee 5 weeks from now if I can sit on my hands and not shave. I have always been TERRIFIED to keep waxing because of how sensitive my skin is, and Ellie made it virtually painless, and she was super thorough. The facilities are so nice, and its no wonder why all the reviews are consistent. Also, their service pricing is so affordable. Most salons charge $ 65 and up for Brazilians, which is pretty standard, but offering at $ 50 makes me that much more inclined to become a loyal customer. If you want a great aesthetic salon, great prices, fantastic service, and amazing therapists with little pain (within reason of what you are actually doing; waxing is uncomfortable no matter what), go to Queen Bee. Thank you to the staff, and Ellie was great! So gentle, thorough and knew exactly what she was doing. I am not even really that red or sore today, only one day after!
On top of all that, they even sent me an email after my service asking how it was. Their booking system is easy, and they respond right away. Overall, a fantastic business with fantastic service.
Thanks again for making a really annoying thing to do, not all that annoying :)

THIS PLACE.
I am a long time fan of Queen Bee in Culver City, but this location is a convenient stop along my way home from work. They have great hours (open until 9PM on Tuesdays and Wednesdays, perfect for after work pampering!), a large lot with one hour free parking, a great online booking system, and wonderful staff.
At this location, I’ve only had my brows done, but I was in and out in a flash with perfect, natural arches! I had come a little early, and I was actually done before my appointment was supposed to begin! I was cleaned up and on my way home in a jiffy, I couldn’t believe it.
I can’t wait to come back for a facial or a pedicure. This location is so warm and cozy, I could move in!

This review is for both this and the Culver City location since their same waxologists goes to both locations depending on the time and day.
ABSOLUTELY LOVE Queen Bee. I’ve found this place for bikini waxing a couple years ago and never looked back. As a very picky person when it comes to waxing down there, it took me a while to find the perfect place and Queen Bee is all things perfect!
Their front desk service is insane, and every waxologist that I’ve had, I’ve never been anything less than satisfied with. Since I know that every waxologists go through crazy training under Jodi, I don’t really care too much who I have for my appointment. They always have great pricing for their newer waxologists which means that during a bunch of my visits, I’ve had awesome discounts for their services! I’ve never had a reaction post-​waxing, and their technique makes it as little pain as possible. It’s also a very sanitary place which is a must for me.
Love the services, the people, and the quirky feel to this place. Plus, Jodi’s email to all of Queen Bee’s clients are a funny addition to my inbox every few months!

I don’t care if all my Unilocal friends see this review and know my beauty routine… because this place is well deserving of 5 stars and a glowing review :)
Girls, let’s be honest — waxing is not the most fun time of the day and for those of us who choose to wax in those private areas, it’s definitely not sunshine and rainbows. BUT, about a year ago I decided to try waxing and to try this place out … and yup. Been coming here ever since — and I have no plans to walk away.
This place is AMAZING. I’ve been waxed by both Alex and Anna and both are just really fantastic. They’re quick, chatty (so you’re distracted), friendly, and just awesome. Both locations (Brentwood and Culver City) are CLEAN and cutely decorated — which of course makes the experience THAT much better.
This place has extremely SUPERB service and for that, it’s not that cheap. But if you’re paying $ 10 or $ 20 for a wax? Probably not going to be too happy with the product. This place is really worth every dollar you spend and their website really gives you a comprehensive idea of their practice, rules, and little tips to help make your experience less painful. Trust me, it’s really not that bad and after those few awkward couple times, it’s really nothing.
For their regulars, they’re really accommodating to your schedule — especially if you need a last minute appt. They always call and/​or email 2 days before your appt to make sure you’re still coming.
So, if you’re looking for a waxing place? This is the place to be.
P. S. They do fill up their appointments quickly and they work really quick. Each wax usually takes about 15 minutes so if you’re running late — you might lose your spot :/​Just a tip! Make sure you get here on time for your appt or you might just lose your spot.
