http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Maria is amazing!
I've been a client of Maria Body image studio for more than a year and I love it. Maria is a perfectionist, so she makes sure to do the wax carefully. Her experience and professionalism makes the experience comfortable. I highly recommend her.

http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Quick and Price good
I scheduled my appointment at the last minute and the next day got a monthly visitor and attempted to reschedule. When I called they told me they would still be able to do it and surprisingly they did. Maria did mine and she was quick about it and did not make it awkward about the experience and did NOT charge me more because of my visitor. I will be going back.

Maria is the ultimate professional, and great at what she does! She's quick while making sure you are comfortable during the process. She's also a very sweet person, and you'll find yourself engaged in conversation. She cares for her clients' and it shows. Highly recommended!

http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Brazilian Wax
This was my first experience with waxing so I was very nervous to begin with! The studio is a little difficult to find but once you enter, it is well decorated with a nice ambiance. The entire session took approximately 20 minutes and Maria was efficient, kind (she would stop periodically to ask me how I was doing), and conversation was pleasant (she even took an interest in my life)! I will definitely be a returning customer and will recommend her to all my friends!

http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Brazilian wax for a Brazilian girl
Being a brazilian I know how hard it can be to find a good waxing service in the U.S., but Maria is as great as the professionals in Brazil. She is very knowledgable and serious on what she does. Her studio is super clean and cozy and the vibe is just amazing... Candles, music and an incredible atmosphere. Maria is a hard worker and her passion for what she does makes her services excellent!!! A++++

I love Maria. She is the only person I have gone to for a Brazilian and the only person I feel comfortable with since I've been loyal to her for so long. Her assistant.

http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832The Sugar Brazilian Wax for Women is Great!!!!
Maria is great! A fun person who knows her stuff and her services are inexpensive. I had a difficult trying to find the location at first but once I found it I was in love. It's a nice cozy atomosphere and it is very clean which is a plus. She advised me on how the sugar brazilian was the best option for removing the hair. I am definitely a regular now!

http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832AWESOME!!!
Went to Maria for my very first wax ever and I was overly impressed! Sugaring is an excellent idea and experience. She's very clean, has a great place, great atmosphere, and she made me feel very comfortable. I will be back. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!

Very professional and comfortable environment. Maria is great, as quick and painless as any sugaring could ever be. Would definitely recommend!

http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Great Customer Service
They were extremely professional and made me feel comfortable. I was nervous at first, since it was my first sugar waxing, but I was happy with the end result. I highly recommend them!

http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Take Two
Very nice atmosphere, friendly technicians, conveniently located, and reasonably priced. I went for my first sugaring service (half leg and chin). Unfortunately, by the next day I had developed sores on one side of my chin and several small bumps on the other. Because this was my first experience, I am not sure what factor(s) caused this or what treatments by the esthetician or by me could have prevented it. Still, I would give it another shot.

http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Maria the Saint
I love Maria. She is the only person I have gone to for a Brazilian and the only person I feel comfortable with since I've been loyal to her for so long. Her assistant, I'm not so sure about, but I know Maria very well and she is not only fabulous at what she does, but she is also as loyal to me as I am to her.

I normally have my appointment with Maria but she was running a little late. I didn't get the womens name but she was EXCELLENT. Would go the her again!

Apr 22, 2013
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Brazilian Wax was Great!
First visit to Maria's - they used "sugar" for my Brazilian waxing. It was much less painful than regular hot wax, and gave a very clean wax. Will definitely be going back.
-
Apr 21, 2013
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Awesome experience!
Awesome experience with Noura! She was prompt, very sweet and quick. I was able to easily find parking close by due to my appt being first thing Saturday morning, but you do have to pay. Prices are very reasonable. Any irritation that I had right after the sugaring was cleared very quickly. I did follow their pre and post sugaring/waxing instructions which I believed assisted in there not being so much irritation after the process. Will definitely be going back!
-
Apr 17, 2013
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Great Experience!
I had been getting traditional Brazilian wax treatments for years, and had endured the stinging pain that lasts for hours afterwards. The sugar wax method employed by Maria's is second to none! The application technique is definitely different than a traditional wax, but I highly recommend it. Noura is a master of this craft and has a quiet spirit and warm smile. I had no irritation and was very impressed with my overall experience. I have already booked my next appointment.
-
Apr 15, 2013
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Wonderful!
Great experience with Maria! I have extremely sensitive skin and have had horrible reactions to wax, so I was nervous to go somewhere new when I moved away from my trusted sugaring spot in the South. Maria was friendly, fast, and efficient- and the sugar was natural and caused no allergic reaction! I'm also paying a third of what I paid before. I will definitely be back.
-
Apr 14, 2013
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832The best!
I travel over 100 miles to see Maria! No one is as fast or professional. She is so nice and her studio is beautiful- in a great location.
-
Apr 14, 2013
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Best Wax....EVER
Maria is wonderful. So wonderful that my husband has also been inspired. Her technique is quicker and much less painful. You will NEVER want to go through the hot wax again. She explains exactly what she is doing, and checks in to make sure you are doing ok. Oh yeah..the prices are reasonable too. Great place to go.
-
Apr 13, 2013
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Great!
I was nervous since this was my first Brazilian and first professional sugaring. Maria was great and very awesome at making me feel comfortable and informing me of what to expect. Definitely going back!!!

http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832maria is the best
i have been going to maria for 3 years. i have tried waxers all over the northeast... no one comes close. maria is by far the best brazilian wax you can get and worth every penny.
-
Apr 10, 2013
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Very happy with service
I have been coming to Maria's salon for a while now and always happy with the service. Noura did a brow shaping and arm wax. She did a thorough job, and my brows look beautiful. I recommend this salon!

http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Great Experience
This was my first bikini wax and my skin is highly sensitive. Maria was great! She took her time to explain the process, and was very personable. Sugar waxing is absolutely the way to go. The salon was recommended by a close friend and I'm glad I took her suggestion....
-
Apr 8, 2013
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Clean and painless
I chose Maria body image studio because they offer sugar waxing. It's much more sanitary than the traditional wax. There's no double dipping involved with sugar wax! I've had Brazilian and upper lip wax services here. Maria is so professional and really makes you feel comfortable. My recommendation for the Brazilian is that you take ibuprofen a couple hours before your appointment. It will help alleviate the pain. Five stars for being a clean, professional and friendly salon.
-
Apr 8, 2013
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Best Brazilian Ever!
Maria was recommended to me by a friend, and I am so thankful. I was always skeptical about sugaring, and wondered if it works as well as hot wax. Not only does it work great, it’s less painful! No hot wax irritating your skin. Maria is so fast that it’s over before you know it.
-
Apr 6, 2013
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Awesome Service
My 4th visit, Maria and Noura are efficient, patient, and do an overall great job. I will continue to be a repeat customer!

http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Enjoy coming here
I have been a regular for two years and have been pretty satisfied with Maria and her staff's service. Sugaring is a lot less painful and cleans pretty thoroughly. Maria is great and Noura does a really good job too. Highly recommend both of them.

http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832First time living social customer
I don't understand where all the bad living social reviews are coming from.... This was my first time sugaring, I bought a Living social deal and made an appointment with Maria. She was very professional and so incredibly patient about letting me take breaks when I needed to. She was very supportive and nice about walking me through this new experience. I will most certainly come back and become a regular!
-
Mar 26, 2013
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Repeat Costumer
I usually see Maria but had to get in to see somebody asap and saw Noura. She was very nice, and quick. The sugar waxing didn't take long at all considering that I should have been in there weeks, maybe even months ago. Thanks Maria and Noura, you guys are great!

http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Women's Sugar Brazilian
This was the first time waxing anything other than my eyebrows. It was great! Maria made me feel very comfortable. I am definitely going to be a repeat customer now!

http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832One hour facial
I liked Maria's facial. It was through and pleasant. Unfortunately, unlike Maria Carolina was clumsy and amateurish and could not communicate. Contrary to her impression, My daughter who had a facial with Carolina was very dissatisfied. The facial was not thorough and was uncomfortable. We would visit Maria body image studio again only if we had a facial with Maria herself.
-
Mar 23, 2013
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Amazing Place!
I hesitate to even write this because I feel like I'm giving away a hidden treasure! Maria and her staff are incredibly welcoming and skilled. I don't trust my eyelashes to anyone else now.
-
Mar 22, 2013
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Maria is absolutely AWESOME
The sugar waxing technique is amazing, Maria is amazing. I will never go anywhere else to get waxing.

http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832you know Maria is the best
Been seeing Maria for at least a few years--she's consistent and her demeanor makes the process a lot less painful!
-
Mar 20, 2013
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Wonderful!!
I've been going here for 2 years now, and I usually have Maria do my sugar waxing & she's always great! Today she wasn't available so I used a new lady from Morocco who was working and she was just as wonderful! I never have to worry, it's excellent service! Thank you!

http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Male Brazilian
I have been going to Maria for the last 3 - 4 years. Maria is very good and very professional in her approach. She uses a sugaring solution that is much less painful and harmful than hard wax. Even though it's painful for a moment she's very perceptive and pauses to let you catch your breath. We laugh about it and she continues to work quickly. I appreciate her humor and her care and am very happy that she continues to offer a very reasonable service. I highly recommend her.

http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Maria Body Image Studio
The required online booking system did not allow me to choose a threading appointment the second time around. I ended up having an eyebrow wax with Nora and she was great!

http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Brazillian Sugar
Noura did a great job at keeping this first timer calm and relaxed. I would go back, but it did seem to lack privacy. I would rather not hear another client getting waxed.

http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Brazilian Sugar
Laura was really nice for a beginner. The only concerns I had was windows without curtains in the room I was getting the treatment. And thin walls that I could hear customers and Maria talking.

This is my second visit to Maria Body Image Studio & Maria does a great job each time. I'll continue to go to her for my sugar brazilian waxes.
-
Mar 11, 2013
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Great experience every time!
I've gone to Maria's three times now and I always leave happy. Maria and Noura are both kind professionals who are quick and efficient. I'll never go anywhere else, even though it's out of the way to get here. You cannot beat the price or the service. I would highly recommend their services!

http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832First Brazilian!
I had my first sugar Brazilian this past weekend. Maria was great at keeping me calm and checking to see if I was okay. I had a great experience and will be returning

http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832First time experience brazilian w/this place
I had scheduled online for Maria, ended up having my brazilian done with Nora. Awesome atmosphere, service... Had brazilian done, this was my 4th time getting a brazilian done, but first time trying sugaring-I usually use hot wax. I still think waxing and sugaring are the same except waxing w/out sugar is faster if done right (or with the right kind of wax). Definitely worth a visit. Used a voucher from Living Social.
-

http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Maria's Body Image Studio
Noura was great! Don't let anyone kid you if it's your first time...men in particular, there are some particularly sensitive parts on your body and it hurts! Looking forward to next time when it won't be as painful.

http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Facial + sugaring
I've always had great experiences with sugaring here, & decided to try a facial too when I saw the Living Social deal. I made an appointment with Maria over a month in advance, & showed up admittedly 5 mins late & was greeted by someone else who pointed at her watch & then gestured to the treatment room. She never asked about my skin needs/sensitivities nor introduced herself. I would not go back for anything other than sugaring. Nora is very sweet & does a great job.
-
Feb 23, 2013
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Maria body image studio
The facility was clean. The ladies were really nice. I had Nora, even though I made my appointment with Maria. Nora was good but doesn't speak English well so she didn't walk me thru it she jumped right in. All In all I would return and I recommend this spot.
-
Feb 21, 2013
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Maria is great!
I found Maria 2 yrs ago through a Groupon/Living Social deal and I've been going back ever since then! She's gentle and kind, giving me breaks when I need it and distracting me by asking about my children! I highly recommend her services and her sugaring!
-

http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Professional
I had a tiny bit of trouble finding the place. I was greeted warmly and treated very nicely. I received a Brazilian which was my first and I was kind of embarrassed. The therapist was very professional and made me feel at ease. I would definately recommend this salon to friends and family.
-
Feb 18, 2013
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832I only have one complaint...
I couldn't find anything to complain about.I was late, they fit me in, Noura (sp) was amazing.Although I wasn't in pain, she kept making sure I was ok.I've used hard wax and the muslin strips, this was, by far, the best experience ever.I could ramble but I will leave it at this, I'm sure that some people have their reasons for not being happy with Maria's but as for me, they have definitely earned a repeat customer that will certainly be recommending to all my friends.
-
Feb 18, 2013
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Great wax (5 star), facial was disappointing
I got lost looking for the location. The woman who answered the phone could not give me directions, and I ended up being about 100 yards away. The person scheduled to do my facial ran late and my one hour appt was less than 45 min. The saving grace of my experience was the sugar waxing. Fantastic wax job.
-
Feb 15, 2013
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Love Maria!
Best Waxing experience I've had. Maria is friendly and professional and makes you feel comfortable. I moved recently and still drive the extra miles to see her. Can't go anywhere else!
-
Feb 13, 2013
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Very happy with Noura
Went for a sugar bikini wax - was my first time there. Noura worked to make sure I was relaxed and comfortable. I will go back to her.
-
Feb 13, 2013

http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Brazillian Sugar Wax
Noura was excellent from beginning to end. I called her to let her know that I would be about 15 minutes late...she was very patient, greeted me when I entered and was very good at performing the service. I'll definitely return.
-
Feb 11, 2013
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Salon experience
There needs to be better management of appointments and arrivals at the salon. I called 3 times before coming in for the first time, and never got someone who could give me details about the treatments. When I arrived, no one greeted me, so I sat around for 15 min. The actual treatment went well, but the management of the salon could be better.

Feb 8, 2013
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832I love this place!
I was introduced to sugaring by a friend. She recommended Maria's and I am so happy she did. The staff is awesome; I have been to both Maria and Noura. They made this somewhat painful process as comfortable as possible. On my last visit, Noura introduced me to numbing cream. I love her for that! I will definitely go on a regular basis now that I know about numbing cream!

http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Brazilian experience
I've gotten a few Brazilian waxes by Maria and all have been good. Pretty quick and her rates are very reasonable. Scheduling my next appointment!
-
Feb 6, 2013
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832OMG Fantastic
I moved here and was SO worried I wouldn’t find another great waxing professional. Well, I was SUPER when I came to see Maria. WOWEEEE! First, the sugaring is way less painful than regular waxing, but what blows me away about Maria is not only is she thorough, quick, personable AND her rates are unbelievably reasonable. I almost don't want to spread the word, BUT everyone deserves to have such a great service. I have seen her business grow and I am so happy to see that.
-
Feb 5, 2013
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Great Brazilian wax
So for the past two years I've been going to Maria on and off since I live an hour away. This past weekend I made an appointment with Noura since Maria was not available. I was a little hesitant at first because I usually go to Maria but I'm so happy that I met Noura. She is great and really takes her time. At the end of it all both ladies are wonderful.
-
Feb 2, 2013
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Best Brazilian!
I've been going to Maria for about a 1 1/2 years and I must say that she gives the best Brazilian waxes ever. She is friendly, caring and professional. I am VERY picky about everything.. in particular my private area and Maria is efficient but thorough with waxing. I drive over 40 minutes for her services. If you're contemplating trying Brazilian waxing or visiting this studio...look no further, Maria Body Image Studio is the go to place for waxing!!!
-
Jan 31, 2013
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Great Facial!
Maria was fantastic! She is knowledgable and very pleasant. She took time to explain the process and products to me but didn't talk too much during the facial. She also didn't try to push products on me. I will definitely be going back.

http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Sugaring with Maria
I have been going to Maria for my brazilian sugaring for about a year now, and I am always, always satisfied. Even when she's busy, and her scheduling has been screwed up, she is professional and extremely pleasant. She is finally taking a vacation, and I wish her the best because she really does deserve it! Thank you Maria, and I'll see you in a couple of weeks.

Jan 28, 2013
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Sugar Brazilian done by Noura
My appointment was supposed to be with Maria, but I guess she was running behind so Noura did my sugar Brazilian for me. She was so nice and made the whole experience a breeze. I didn't meet Maria, although I specifically requested her, but she seems very rude the way she was talking to Noura and she was also rude when I talked to her on the phone before. Anyway Noura did an OUTSTANDING job. I've never been so satisfied with my Brazilian before. I will be coming back to her :)
-
Jan 28, 2013
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Completely agree with guy who got the brazilian
I found Maria to be professional in her manner and, judging by her excellent results, professional all around. I've already booked my next appointment for a "full body for men." I don't know anything about suburban, livingsocial-buying women, but if you're a guy and interested in this, don't hesitate.

Male brazilian, first time in the DC area. Maria convinced me to try sugar and I found it less painful and overall a good experience. Maria is very professional and does the job well. She is also just the right level of friendly. Don't believe those bad reviews. Take note that the bad ones are written by ladies with living social coupons. You know the type - white suburban housewives with nothing to do but complain about everything. Maria is awesome! :)

http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Sugaring services is wonderful!
I am beyond pleased when I come to Maria's for my Brazilian sugaring. Surgaring is less painful than regular waxing and Maria is extremely prompt. Her soothing demeanor washes away an nervous jitters and her conversation is great. I highly recommend coming here. :) Super pleased.

http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Nora's Brazilian Wax
Nora is such a sweet technician. She performed the sugar wax (Brazilian wax). I purchased the living social deal so got a very good discounted price (normally $45). Although it was very, very painful, Nora's personality soothed me through it and it was great getting to know her. She's from Morocco and we bonded over potentially traveling together :) I would recommend Maria's Body Image Studio in a heartbeat :)

Jan 18, 2013
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Just what I needed
I had gone to an expensive salon for a brazillian for a couple months before I found Maria's and the last couple times they did a horrible job and I ended up with a rash and broken hairs. She suggested a product that I could get at CVS and did a good job to be mindful of my sensitive skin and get as much hair off as possible. To top it off, I paid half as much at Maria's than at the salon down the street, which is a good service at a good price.

http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Great Service
Very good service. Maria explained the process and also said it would hurt but she was very thoughtful about asking how I was doing throughout the experince. She worked very quickly so it took only about 15-20 minutes.

http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Awesome
This was my second time getting the sugar Brazilian wax, Maria made me feel very comfortable, Maria continued to ask me if, I was okay. Maria is the absolute best. Customer for life.

http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Awesome!
This was my first time getting waxed by Maria and I'll definitely be making her a regular routine. She's very professional and tries to keep your mind off the wax with comfortable conversation. I highly recommend her!

Jan 13, 2013
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Great!
Maria is always nice to ask if you are doing okay. I stopped shaving only for one week so it was painful, so i would recommend to wait longer, but even though that Maria made sure to ask if i was okay every time she felt my pain.
-
Jan 13, 2013
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Best waxing experience ever!
I just moved to this area from south Florida where I went to a Euro waxing chain for years(think assembly line). Maria won me over from hello. She was warm and made me as comfortable as possible and left me 100% satisfied! The sugaring lasted 3 weeks and was much less painful than the hard wax I'm used to. Not to mention Maria is affordable. Do yourself a favor and visit Maria!

http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Sugar waxing
This see my first experience with sugar. Maria was recommended to me by a friend. I asked for a landing strip and she took all the hair off, but it was a good experience overall.

http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832I've tried everything....Maria's sugaring is the best
I am a recent convert to the Brazilian, and I tried hot wax and shaving before coming to Maria; her Brazilian is the best. I have now been a customer for two years. Her sugaring lasts longer than shaving. Is less painful than hot wax. And causes fewer ingrown hairs than either.
-

http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832First Brazillian
Great first experience. Maria makes you feel so comfortable. She truly is the best. I metroed all the way from Gaithersburg, MD for 2 hours for her. Totally worth it.

http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Great experience
Maria was kind and swift. This was my first waxing, and it was intimidating at first. Her nurse-like ways made me comfortable and relaxed right away. She's courteous and the environment is very pleasant.

http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Great experience!
I recently moved to the DC area and went to Maria for a bikini wax based on her amazing online reviews. They didn't lie! She's personable and professional and makes the experience as pleasant as possible (if a bikini wax can actually be classified as "pleasant"). She's also very knowledgeable and helps you solve any issues you may be having (rash, ingrown hairs, etc.) I'll definitely be going back!

The sugar wax is quick and not that painful, Never had a bad experience so far, Maria is very friendly and treat each customer nicely. And if Maria busy, her other staff is as professional as she is. Superb!
-
Dec 20, 2012
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Great Customer Service
The customer service was great, but I paid for a 60 minute facial, and received a 40 minute facial. I would have appreciated the full 60 minute more than the shortened version, but I was happy with the customer service. I wouldn't go back in the future, fearing that I would not get the full service time that I paid for.

I thought I was at the wrong place when i walked up to the townhouse with the red door and the tiny sign, but i was greeted when I entered and went upstairs to meet Maria. The wax was awesome - I'll be back! Best wax ever and I've been getting brazilians for years. Price is good and I was completely smooth upon leaving. Maria is friendly, professional and definitely busy - it's no wonder - she's fabulous.

http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832*Excellent Sugar Waxing Services !!!*
Its official - Sugar Brazilian Wax is a lot better than a regular Brazilian Wax. Its not as painful and its definitely less irritation. Maria is wonderful! She knows what she's doing, really professional, and she's really nice. The price is good compared to where I used to go and they provide better results - I will take less irritation any day, lol. To anyone who does Brazilian Waxes I HIGHLY recommend to go to Maria Body Image Studio and get her Sugar Brazilian Wax.

http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832First time
Both Maria and Meg were awesome. First time for a brazilian, and Maria was patient and careful to explain each step of the process. Meg was quick and efficient with other areas. Will definitely repeat in four weeks!
-
Dec 7, 2012
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Great service!
Maria is always fast and efficient. The sugar wax is so much less painful and she is good at keeping you comfortable and patient if you are sensitive. I have had horrible experiences at other places but never bad experience at Maria's. The only complaint is the lack of privacy. It doesn't bother me but I could see others not liking it.
-
Dec 3, 2012
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Quick and efficient
Maria was very fast and I appreciated that. However, the fact that the door opens right into the reception area was bothersome to me. There didn't seem to be much of an effort for privacy. For a modest person, that's an uncomfortable situation to be in.
-
Dec 3, 2012
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Great service
I had a recent sugar wax with Maria and it was a great experience. I never used this type of strip less wax before and it was wonderful. Maria was very nice and answered all my questions. She was also very fast. I will definitely return.
-
Dec 3, 2012
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Not embarrassing
I highly recommend Maria. This was my first Brazilian, and I'm so glad I did it. I was scared because of the potential pain and because I thought it was going to be embarrassing. It was quite painful (can't deny that), but the pain was quick. Maria made me feel quite comfortable, and I was not embarrassed at all. I will be going back!
-

This was my first time experiencing a bikini wax and I must say it was not bad! I will be honest and say it hurt like crazy as do most things we do for the first time. Maria was incredible, she made it comfortable and was very patience! I definitely recommend every woman try it!!

http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Great Service and Great Atmosphere

I found Maria just browsing online. My first visit was actually my first time ever getting a Brazilian wax (Sugar). I was very nervous, but Maria was able to help me through the process; very nice and talked the entire time I was getting it done. I absolutely love her and would recommend going there. No pain and also no irritation. :)

I recently moved here from California and was searching high and low for an eyelash extension artist. I found Maria!!!she took her time and really did an excellent job on my lashes, which was very much comparable to what I had in Ca. Even though I had to drive 45 mins to her I felt that was totally worth it! And I am supper excited to know she will be expending her business to a location that is going be much closer to me!!!

Oct 30, 2012
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832I LOVE THIS PLACE!
I have been going to Maria for my “Brazilian Sugaring" for over a year now. I am always satisfied with my results and will not dare to go anywhere else. I do recommend sugaring over waxing any day - and I used to wax for years! I’ve only been to Maria, but I hear others say that Clara is good as well. Keep up the great work!!!
-
Oct 28, 2012
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832The only place I will go now
I used to bounce around to various waxing places, but now that I have found Maria, I will only go back here. I have seen both Maria and the new esthetician, Clara. Both are excellent. I had Clara this past time, and she is fantastic! She explains what she is doing, and makes sure you are comfortable. Sugaring is much less painful than waxing, and the ladies are both very calming. It is a pretty quick process, and they are thorough. This will be the only place I go now. Highly recommend!

http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Great service
It was my first Brazilian wax with Maria and it was much easier than my previous experiences. She is friendly, explains what she will do. Also sugaring is safer and less painful than regular wax. Suggest her for men's Brazilian.

http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Great service
Clara was super friendly and warm. I had to reschedule my appointment and she willingly took me after her last appointment... On my very first visit to the studio! It's not like I was a regular to the place so she fit me in! I had regular waxing as well as sugaring, and she did a great job. I totally recommend Carla.

So much less harsh than the traditional waxing! I highly recommend Maria Body Image Studio!!

I come here for my regular Brazilian " sugaring." The service is always quick and professional. Maria works quickly, and frequently checks to make sure I am not too uncomfortable. The staff is friendly and welcoming, and my appointments always start right on time. I would recommend this place for the waxing novice and experienced.

Sep 22, 2012
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832The Best

My male Brazilian waxing was my very first waxing of any type and was a great decision. Maria, is very professional and made me feel at ease. The results were absolutely wonderful, so smooth and clean. I highly recommend Maria's studio. Two days later I had a full body waxing with Clara and Lalla. Again only the highest of professional ethics and a waxing with fantastic results. A very clean and well run studio! I most definately will return!

http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Sugar Waxing convinced this man of Brazilian!
I’m a man getting my first Brazilian! The building with the red door is easy to locate; go right upstairs. Maria is a very nice, experienced professional with great manners. Remember to exfoliate, take ibuprofen and apply numbing creme before the procedure. My experience was essentially painless and remaining stray hairs did not stand a chance against Maria's sharp eyes and tweezers. All around a superb experience in a relaxed atmosphere for a good value. Will return!

I have been going to Maria for about a year now and will continue to do so in the future. Her prices are very reasonable and I like sugar waxing when I got for a brazilian much more than others I have tried. Maria is so friendly and makes the whole experience a comfortable one. Highly recommended!

http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Great Value
She's discreet and pleasant. First time waxing and she made it easy. She's more thorough with girls though, I'm male and she made no effort to after stray hairs with tweezers. Otherwise a great experience and good value for the money paid.

Ouch! But Maria was very kind, and as gentle as one can be when ripping all the hair out of your scrotum. The atmosphere was nice, as well, but I'm pretty sure the girls in the waiting room could hear my yelps. I thought it was a bit expensive, but my girlfriend tells me that's par for a waxing in the nether region.

LaLa did my Brazilian wax and I must say she was very gentle. This was my first time getting a Brazilian using sugaring.

Considering that I havent been properly maintained down there in about 7 months *sorry Maria* the sugaring process was not really painless, but it definitely did not hurt as much as it would have if it was a regular waxing, and it was quick! Maria is also awesome and made feel extremely comfortable. I look forward to my next appt!

My hat's off to the great ladies (La La and Maria) of Maria body image studio. It was my first time getting a body waxed and both ladies were consummate professionals. They explained what it was they were doing and ensured that any discomfort was kept to a minimum. I highly recommend this business to anyone looking for true professionals in body waxing!!

http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Satisfaction guaranteed
I was a little upset that I made an appointment with Maria and her assistant, Lona (sp), had to do the work because Maria wasn't available. But my disappointment didn't last long. She was very sweet and did a wonderful job. "Clean as a whistle!" She moved quickly without making me feel rushed especially with it being my first experience with sugar. Thank you and see you in five weeks.

http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Deinitely Satisified
Maria was spectacular. i have waxed for quite some time and she was professional, sweet, quick, and thorough. Everything you could ask for and more. I also tried sugaring for the first time and won't go back to the old way if I can help it. I just moved here and looked at other people's reviews for guidance so I wanted to give back and say, Come Here. You won't be dissapointed. It's not a fancy, glam place but it is a cute lil beautiful place that is bright and cheery and so is Maria.

http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Exceptional Service
Maria is an exceptional professional with great ethics and moral fiber. Being my first time, she took the time to explain the process in detail and was understanding of my lack of knowledge in this area. She makes everyone feel welcomed and at ease. I would definitely return to see her over and over again and would recommend to all.

http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Great service at a reasonable price
I absolutely love Maria. I've been to my share of estheticians, and while I have favorites in several areas of Virginia, Maria is my go-to in NOVA. I live in southern MD and gladly make the drive--it can be so difficult to find someone like Maria! She keeps you comfortable and never makes it awkward. I've even taken a male friend in and (besides the pain) he enjoyed his experience, stating that Maria snuffed every fear and worry he had going into the appointment. Definitely recommend.

I was a virgin to waxing. And as a male, I was quite nervous but I got my back, buttocks and almost my entire private area done. Maria was great, calm and im so going back.

Maria does a great job. I've had a number of different waxers over the years and she's one of the best, and the price is right. Her salon is clean, comfortable and well located. I always find parking nearby. Her online booking system works really well too. Would definitely recommend her.

http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Brazilians made easy!
I have had several Brazilian waxes by Maria and I have never been disappointed. She does a great job and truly cares about your comfort level during waxing. She often asks, "Are you okay?" The conversations are always easy and interesting which, helps keep my mind off of any discomfort from waxing. Maria is friendly and the go to person for all of your waxing needs. Her prices are also very reasonable and I always find free parking nearby.

This was my first time getting a sugar wax, and it had been a long time since my last brazilian at all. Maria was so sweet, friendly and considerate. The process wasn't too painful given the circumstances, and I'm very pleased with the results - smooth, no bumps, and very thorough. The place is affordable and clean. Highly recommend.

This was my second time coming to Maria for a Brazilian wax. Her services are great, and I am more than happy with my results. The price is very affordable, and she always makes you feel comfortable and at ease by engaging in friendly conversation while doing the wax. I would recommend her services, and will be coming back!!

http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Maria is the BEST!!!
I went to Maria for a male brazilian; this was my first waxing experience ever. I was VERY nervous but Maria was AWESOME! It only lasted for about 10 mins; she talked me through the process and it wasn't as painful as I thought it would be. If you're looking for a place to go, Maria's is it! From what I hear, the traditional wax is very painful and can rip the skin but Maria's sugar wax was amazing; my skin is soooo smooth :) I will definately be a repeat customer!
-
Jun 23, 2012
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832First timer at Maria's
The appointment started off a little rocky with a hysterical bride whose skin had reacted to a body wrap. Maria was great with handling her and then came in for my Brazilian. She gave me a heads up on how their paste was different from the salon I had been going to and how it may hurt more than usual since the hair had been broken not pulled at the root. She was right but the end result was fantastic an cheaper than my usual place! I'll definitely be back!
-
Jun 20, 2012
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832I love Maria!
I won't go anywhere else for bikini waxes. She is so sweet and very professional. She puts me at ease with her calming demeanor. I would absolutely recommend her.

Tried Maria (found her on Yelp) b/c my regular person is out of town and really hard to book. The online appointment for is convenient. Maria is friendly, thorough in her explanations and procedure. She makes you comfortable. Price was great, results were great. Am looking forward to seeing how it grows in, since it seems like the sugar she used got lots more hair and didn't break any off just below the surface. Maria will definitely be my new regular gal.

I've never tried waxing.... But came across this style of sugar waxing and decided to give it a try, for my first time ever, it couldn't have gone smoother. Maria was friendly and attentive and did a wonderful job! I'll definitely be back !

Jun 11, 2012
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Maria Rocks! Never regular wax again
I've been going to Maria for Sugar Brazilians for almost a year. While the process maybe a tad bit painful, there arent any new ingrown hairs, lil bumps, or course new hair. Everything lasts a solid 6-8wks. Great price & Marias bedside manner is on point!

Maria gave me an instant, natural "eye lift" with her flawless application of eye lash extentions. The location is convenient and the studio is beautiful. Maria's warm, caring demeanor and sense of humor made the whole experience very pleasant and ultimately rewarding with long, full lashes. I am going to book a follow-up appointment today.

-
Jun 4, 2012
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Pretty good, but painful
She used both sugar & wax for my chest. It was my first waxing. It hurt like hell, and many hairs just broke off and didn't get pulled. That may simply be due to it being the first time...chest was very sore & raw for 48 hours. Hard to tell what the pull to breakage ratio is, but it's probably about 10 to 1. Willing to give her another shot if I need to do this again.

http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Great service, less painful than waxing
I've been going to Maria for almost a year now. Amazing! Sugar waxing is less painful than regular waxing and Maria herself is awesome! What I like the best about this place is how comfortable Maria and her staff make me feel, completely at home. I've recommended her to my friends and they've all become converts. If you're thinking about it, do it! These people are professionals!

http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Guys, this is the place!
I've been getting various parts waxed for years, but never went all the way because of the pain. With Maria's Sugar formula and firm touch, I now get a full male Brazillian without any trouble at all. That's not to say that it doesn't hurt a little, but you won't find me screaming like a baby as Richard did on the Howard Stern show a few years back. The no-hair feeling is fabulous and adds a new dimension to your sensitivity. Go for it!

http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Brazilian Sugar Wax
This was my first sugar wax. I was surprised by how effective it was. Layla was very professional and concerned about my comfort. I think the sugar wax gets more of the hairs out by the root compared to other Brazilian waxes I have had. I would recommend her.

http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832love Maria!
Maria is fantastic! I've never done sugar waxing before coming to her and it's great. Very little pain compared to regular waxing. Maria is really nice and friendly and makes you feel as comfortable as possible. The salon itself is very clean and sanitary. Just make sure that your hair is long enough. I've never had this problem, but some will go in within days after shaving- don't do it!

May 21, 2012
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832As painless as waxing can get
Lalla was very kind and as gentle as possible (which is difficult when getting your legs waxed). They use the sugaring method which is much less painful than regular wax. It takes a little longer, but the sugar wax is warm instead of hot (I've been scalded many times previously)
-

http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Worth The Pain... :-)
I was very nervous the first time I was getting a Brazilian. Upon arriving, Maria immediately put me at ease. Also, the pulled sugar wax seems to prevent ingrown hairs. I have been going to her for seven months now and wouldn't change for any reason. She is not only the best, but also the cheapest...

The stylist on the first floor was very friendly and directed me upstairs. The waiting area was very small, but the wait was not long. I liked the decor, the soothing music and scents in the air. Lalla did an excellent job on my sugar brazilian. She was very knowledgable and answered all of my questions while enlightening me on other bits of info. I will, definitely, go back.

I've being going to Maria for eyelash extensions for several months and she does an amazing job. She is meticulous about the application and makes sure you are happy with them before you leave. I regularly get compliments on how beautiful my lashes are and no one ever knows they're false unless I tell them, which I rarely do!

http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832No double dipping
I left a high end salon in Old Town because they double-dipped while waxing. I found Maria's through an internet search and I'm really happy with the switch. I really liked Lalla. She was very nice and made sure I was comfortable. Really happy with my services and it's very affordable. The one thing I am hoping is that the facilities will improve a bit. Not that it is dirty or anything, but it needs a little updating and TLC.

Maria is very efficient and I will return. I wish there was a little more privacy in the waxing room, having the door open into the waiting room while I'm wearing no pants made me nervous. There are also no curtains on some of the windows. Re-positioning the table or adding a curtain would help a lot.
-
Apr 16, 2012
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/301068321st time visitor will return
This was my first sugar waxing, and I thought it went great. Sure, it has its painful moments, but Maria was excellent. MUCH faster than I thought, and she was great at explaining everything and answering my questions. I will go back again!

Apr 15, 2012
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Good first time experience

Apr 13, 2012
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Definitely a keeper
I had a Living Social coupon for the Brazilian sugar wax. I've never had this done before and they were very nice. She kept asking me if I was ok after every rip. She was quick and I will definitely be back. It really does feel like you're walking into someone's house but it is definitely worth it!

-
Apr 7, 2012
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Hard to find but good
Look for the red door. There is no signage and they've been there for 6 months. From the sounds of it they don't plan on putting any up either. It looks like a house. The owner said in Old Town all the houses are businesses....ahhh that's totally not true! Despite the issues in finding the place and hearing a lecture from the owner about how we should know better (she lectured the person after me to) the actual sugar waxing was good.
-
Apr 7, 2012

Maria is a fantastic sugar-er! She is quick and as painless as possible & keeps you comfortable by talking to you the whole time. I've gotten my eyebrows waxed and tinted twice and they're average. The dye is a bit dark and they just don't seem prepared for this service quite yet. HIGHLY recommend Maria for your sugaring needs.

Mar 22, 2012
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Such a great experience
I had a brazilian done with sugaring by Maria. Now I've been waxed and sugared for a brazilian many times by 6 different people before Maria. I worked in a day spa with multiple estheticians. Regardless of my history I hadn't been waxed/sugared in 9 months( I moved from NY in July). Maria was amazing. I'm also 5.5 months pregnant with my first baby. Maria was ever so careful and still finished me in under 30 mins(about 20). By far the best experience I've had. I will definitely be back.

On the second floor, I was greeted my Maria with a smile. Her salon was neat and clean, the sign of a professional. Maria was prompt and took care of business. This was my first visit and will not be my last. I highly recommend her salon located in Old Town Alexandra, VA. What a gem and what a nice person!

http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Great facial and overall pampered experience!
Maria tailored my facial specifically to my issues (the occasional cystic pimple). She was patient and explanatory when I bombarded her with all of my neurotic questions. She even massaged my feet while my mask was setting! I had a little redness after a very gentle peel and she sent me home with some redness-serum just in case. Overall, a very exceptional experience.

http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Great Service!
Maria's makes the awkward experience of waxing very relaxing and somewhat enjoyable. Love sugaring so much more than waxing. I highly recommend for anyone that has had a bad experience with waxing.

http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Sugar waxing promise= fulfilled
I would totally recommend Maria Body Image Studio. I followed my friends advice to try their services and I am very pleased. The groupon was a great idea, because you have no regrets. Even if I had payed full price, which I will in the future, I would still go again. Really fast and not too painful, it's a good deal even full price.

http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Maria is the BEST!
I have been going to Maria for a little under a year after using a Groupon for a Brazilian. I previously had gone to two other places for Brazilians but Maria's attention to detail and calm bedside manner makes the experience as "painless" as possible. I have recommended her to several of my friends and they love her too.

Feb 21, 2012
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Very nice experience
Maria is caring and professional. This was my first time doing waxing and she made it a breeze. She was very attentive and knowledgeable. I highly recommend her.

http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Maria is GREAT! Awesome experience
Best bikini wax in the DC area. She is the only person I trust to give me an excellent bikini wax. Very experience, gentle and knowledgeable. Sugar waxing makes it last a lot longer and is great on the skin. I've been a couple times and have yet to experience any red bumps or rash. Maria is great!
-
Feb 17, 2012
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832AMAZING!
Both women were extremely kind and pleasent! This place is definatly somewhere you should go! The sugar treatment is amazing and BOTH women make you feel comfortable while there getting your treatment.

Maria body image is absolutely the best place in Virginia to get waxing services. Maria is the best at what she does and Anita is really following her steps, They are both professional, friendly and super detailed, I will never go anywhere else.

http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Great results!
Although I was not offered the first time discount for new customers that others have told me about (which was a bit disappointing), I was impressed with the results of the Brazilian sugaring treatment. I also liked that I was in and out in no time!

Feb 5, 2012
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832The Best Wax Ever
My last experience with a bikini wax was very unpleasant and painful. The sugar was alot less painful than the wax. Maria is ver knowledgeable and she made me feel so comfortable. I will definitely go back!

Jan 26, 2012
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Great Experience!!
Very knowledgeable and informative during waxing!! Very pleasant and she made me feel comfortable through the whole process! Definitely going back in 4-6 weeks!
-
Jan 25, 2012
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832A wonderful first experience!
This was my first "waxing". I was horribly nervous going in, but Maria made me feel very comfortable. She explained everything she was doing, and was very receptive to my feedback about the process. I'm going back in six weeks for a second sugaring! I recommend Maria to anyone who's freaked out about trying waxing/sugaring.
-
Jan 23, 2012
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Great experience considering it was a Brazilian wax!
This was my first bikini-area wax and I had signed up for a Brazilian despite many recommendations that I ease into the experience. But based on all the positive reviews, I gave Maria a try and I am surprised at how quick and easy the whole process was. My appointment lasted about 20 minutes and while there were a few brief moments of pain, I give Maria a lot of credit for making the entire experience as comfortable as possible. She's clearly very knowledgable and very sweet. I'll be back!
-
Jan 23, 2012
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Wonderful experience!
Maria did a great job on my waxing. It was my first time with sugar waxing, and it was less painful than the hot wax and more gentle on my skin. The 20% of for the first visit was great. I look forward to coming back. It is great to have her in Old Town.
-
Jan 18, 2012
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Not as bad as I thought.
This was my first waxing experience and I was prepared for the worst but Maria made the process go smooth. The sugaring process was new to me but it worked very well. I recommend her to anyone.

http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832100% professional
Both my husband and I had Maria do our Brazilian waxes. It was my husbands first time and mine with Maria. She was fantastic. Kept us talking and the time flew by. She uses sugar wax which is organic. We will be back and the results were AWESOME!
-
Jan 15, 2012
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Love it!
Maria always does a great job. It was quick and relatively painless. She's so sweet it makes the process that much better. She has converted me to sugar waxing and she is my number one!

http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Amazing results and great service
I had eyelash extensions done and I the results were astonishing. They looked dramatic, but real...as if I was born with naturally luxurious lashes! The staff was very friendly and bubbly. There is even a little puppy on staff!
-
Jan 9, 2012
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Maria provides excellent service!!!
I've been a client of Maria's for almost two years and her services reign supreme. She's performed facials, eyelash extensions, waxing (with sugar), and body wraps on numerous occassions...her studio is a one-stop beauty shop for me. Maria is so talented, knowledgeable, and friendly. I'll recommend her time and time again!!!

http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832review
after reading the reviews on yelp, i was skeptical but maria did a good job and was really fast. the sugar wax only took 10 minutes so that was great and she didnt give me a hard time about my living social voucher. she didnt get all the hair but they never do... I really think she needs to get towels and blankets instead of the paper that doctors use on the tables and a few paper towels.... that was really weird. overall, good experience.
-
Jan 4, 2012
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Maria is the best!
Maria is definitely the best! Every time I go she gets me in and out, not like going to a large salon.. She is definitely someone you will be going to for a long time :)
-
Jan 4, 2012
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Welcoming & Professional
This is my second visit to see Maria for my waxing and I am very happy to have found her, because I had struggled with some doozeys of estheticians, she's perfect for me. Maria listens and really works with you. Im very pleased.
-
Jan 3, 2012
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832maria is awesome!
it was my first time getting anything down there waxed and maria made it as painless and pleasant as possible. she used sugar wax which is apparently less painful than regular. alexandria is like a half hr trek for me but the town is so cute anyway, i had no problem with it. there's a great ambiance, with nice-scented candles. def go here!

http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Beautiful Eyelash Extensions for NYE
Maria is very friendly and applied my eyelash extensions to enhance my natural lash. The procedure was not painful & I received many complements on my "long" lashes. Thanks Maria!
-
Jan 2, 2012
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Good First Experience
This was my first experience with Brazilians and Sugaring. It was painful, but Maria was a pro and helped me through the process. She is also somewhat of a perfectionist, so she wouldn't quit until it was all ready (I wanted to quit before :). All together, I am happy with the results. I will become a regular, but I will take Ibuprofen (or something stronger) before I go.
-

http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Simply the Best

http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832she's a keeper!!
I have been going to Maria for brazilian waxes for 6-7 months now and have yet to be disappointed. She is very personable, super friendly and makes me feel comfortable. She is also very fast...process is done in about 30 minutes and last for several weeks. I won't go anywhere else!
-
Dec 23, 2011
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Awesome!!
Maria is the BEST!!! I've been going to her for almost a year now and can't imagine seeing anyone else. She gave me my first male Brazilian and needless to say I'm glad she knows what she's doing. She has a way of makeing me feel comfortable throughout the entire process. Again ... She's the BEST in my book!!

http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Amazing!
The service was exceptional along with Marias personality. Does a GREAT job (LA Brazillian)! Oh and threading of the eyebrows is HIGHLY recomended. Very stylish!
-
Dec 21, 2011
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832highly recommend! great for sensitive skin!
I've been going to Maria for the past 6 months for regular bikini waxes and can't say enough wonderful things about her and the sugaring process. I have super sensitive skin and with traditional hot and hard waxes I'm red and bumpy for up to 3 days after. But with sugaring my skin is red a little bit the first day and that's it! Maria works fast and is very thorough. And you can't beat $40 for a Brazilian! I highly recommend especially if you have super sensitive skin like me.
-

http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832great exerpience
I love love love maria. She gives the best service that I have ever had and I will continue to go back to her. I also got my eyebrows threaded...usually I find threading extremely painful, but this wasn't too bad. I can't remember the girls name but my eyebrows look fantastic! Definite recommendation.

Dec 15, 2011
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832BEST Brazilian EVER!
I have been doing brazilians for years now, sensitive skin and can't shave :( Anyway after relocating from FL it was next to impossible to find a good place for a wax that is also reasonable! Maria is so kind and passionate about doing a good job and hurting you as little as possible!! I have been to other places in Alexandria and was just way too expensive and to be honest much more painful!! thank you again MAria!! And her new assistant for eyebrows is the best too :)
-
Dec 15, 2011
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Won't go anywhere else for a Brazilian
I've done the hot wax thing elsewhere, and I'm never going back. Sugaring is much less painful, and Maria is a sweetheart. (I also recommend Anita's eyelash tinting!)
-
Dec 14, 2011
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Perfect
The brazilian wax is amazing - once a month for fourty bucks is worth it! Maria is fabulous and makes you feel so comfortable. I'm a loyal customer - wouldn't go anywhere else!

http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Maria is the BEST!
I have been going to Maria for a while now, even before she moved to Old Town, and I am still impressed with her methods and Maria herself. She's very, very personable and makes the experience as pleasant and quick as possible under the circumstances (since we all know that it's not a completely painless process), but I have absolutely no complaints. Thanks Maria!!!

http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832BEST EXPERIENCE EVER
This was my first time getting this type of procedure, and Maria made me feel SO comfortable. She is very knowledgeable and you can tell she really enjoys what she does. I just found my regular spot!!
-
Nov 18, 2011
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Maria really does make a difference
I've dabbled with waxing before, but went all the way with a male Brazillian from Maria. It was no where as bad as I expected, thinking I would never be able to get through the whole thing. But the sugaring process is less painful and cleans up well. She also did my eyebrows and they look natural, but well groomed. I'm sure I'll go back next month.
-
Nov 14, 2011
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832pleasant expierence
I didn't notice theplace because its nothing but a red door, no signs with the name on it. Once in the door, we had no idea where to go, up stairs or down into we sat there into we heard her voice from up the stair. But other then that, the sugaring expierence was great.
-
Nov 14, 2011
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832MARIA IS THE BEST
She is knowledge, professional, and takes her time. I go for sugar waxing (which is way less painfully then wax strips or hard wax) and she does a great job. Nice location. Clean facility. Great prices! I definitely recommend.
-
Nov 12, 2011
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Maria Rocks!
Maria is very friendly and put me at ease right away. She made the otherwise awkward and painful Brazilian experience comfortable and easy (well, as easy as a Brazilian can be). Will definitely be going back!
-
Nov 12, 2011
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832ABSOLUTELY the best waxing experience EVER!
I have never had a full brazilian or Man-zilian prior to Maria's service on 11/10/11. As a male, I was very apprehensive at first to fully expose myself to a complete stranger but let me tell you that Maria instantly put me at ease. We engaged in casual conversation for the duration of the service. She was very professional, personable and efficient. the sugar wax is far better at removing more hair while minimizing discomfort. I highly recommend Maria. She has gained a new client for sure :-)
-
Nov 10, 2011
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832excellent experience for first time waxing
Maria is really nice. This is my first time for waxing but I feel comfortable with Maria. The pain is also managable. She explain things in details and... she give me 20% discount for first time being her client.

http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Best wax in town!

http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Seriously the BEST- Do yourself a favor
Words can't express how pleased I am with Sugar Waxing . Nothing comes close to the results of this method. This lady knows what she is doing. Try it at least once, you won't regret it.

First time doing the sugar-waxing, Maria is amazing. A consummate professional, she made me feel as relaxed as one can be in that state (Brazilian bikini) & did an amazing job. I will become a regular there. You owe it to yourself to go!

http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832My First Brazilian
After researching many salons and techniques. I discovered Sugaring. I read all of the reviews for Maria's Body Image Studio and found that mostly everyone had a pleasant experience. I made my appointment. I let Maria know that it was my first time and she was very gentle and talked me through it . I was also impressed that she offers 20% off for first time clients! I tipped her well. I will definitely be back in 4-6 weeks. Thanks Maria!

http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Made the Experience Very Comfortable!!
As anyone knows a full brazilian wax can be very painful but Maria made it as comfortable as the procedure could be. She had great conversation and was very mindful of her technique to lessen the pain. I recommed her to anyone.

Sep 16, 2011
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832It was great!!!
I loved it. Maria is awesome. And though I did not do waxing for quiet a time, she managed to take my attention away from pain, and was tending me with great respect and compassion.

http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Great Experience!
Very pleased with the results of my bikini wax. Sugaring is much faster and less painful than traditional waxing. Online reservations make making an appointment easy and convenient. Great experience for a reasonable price. I will definitely be returning in the future!

Sep 9, 2011
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832AMAZING!!!
Finally a great place to get a brazilian wax. For those who have not tried sugar wax, you NEED to. Have never found a place in the U.S. until now, and it was perfect. As painless as can be and quick. Already have other friends making appointments. Thank you Maria!

Sep 2, 2011
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Maria made me feel comfortable!
My first time meeting Maria was at her new location on Commerce St. I arrived early to allow time to find street parking. Maria was very pleasant. She was finishing up with a client when I arrived. She greeted me and I waited no more than 5 minutes before she was ready to take me back. I was quite pleased with Maria's professionalism, warm spirit and her compassion. She seemed to really care about my level of comfort with the entire waxing process. I will definitely be back to get waxed!
-
Sep 2, 2011
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832First timer
I had my legs, under arms, and bikini line sugared. Maria did a great job. It was fast and hurt a lot less than I expected. I'm excited to see how her business developes in her new location. I'll definitely be back (in 4 to 6 weeks)!
-
Aug 31, 2011
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Great first-time experience!
I got a brazilian bikin wax at Maria's, and it was my first time doing so, so I was understandably very nervous. She was great, though... she made me feel very comfortable and was very patient and informative. I'll definitely return to her in the future.
-
Aug 29, 2011
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832I will no longer dread my monthly waxing
After years of anxiety every month when its time to get waxed, I can't believe I never heard of sugaring! It's not painless but it is compared with traditional waxing. And Maria couldn't have made the whole process any easier. Such a delight and the new space looks like it's going to be very nice and serene. I am a convert!
-
Aug 18, 2011
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Awesome!
I am not new to brazilian waxing, however Maria made my experience all the more wonderful! She continuously asked if I was uncomfortable despite me being a veteran. Her pricing is very low, you will not find anyone cheaper than her without losing professionalism and/or skill. This was my first time using sugar waxing and the sanitation, pain level, and hair removal benefits of this technique are awesome! I immediately called friends of mine when I left to recommend Maria!
-
Aug 14, 2011
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832ALL SMILES
My experience at Maria's was phenomenal! She definitely knows the definition and meaning of true "Customer Service"! It was my first time trying this "sugaring" technique, and I am very pleased with the results. I will definitely go back!
-
Aug 7, 2011
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832i will definitely be back!
Maria was awesome. She put me at ease immediately. I would recommend her to anyone. She used the sugar wax which was really good. I have not had any kind of negative reaction since the waxing. I can't wait to try some of her other services.
-
Aug 1, 2011
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Fantastic!
This was the first time I tried Sugaring, and it was fantastic. Maria, was very paitent and also informative. She had me laughing so hard, I forgot about the pain. I will be back again for sure!

http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Great Experience
I recently went to Maria to get a Brazilian Sugar Wax and Maria was really nice and patient with me. I explained to her that I was new to waxing and that it was only my second time. The first time i went somewhere and got the wax with the strips and it hurt so bad. But Maria paused as much as i needed her too and she talked me through the entire process. I will definitely be going back.

I have been getting Brazillians for several years, and it's difficult to find a good waxer! I believe I have just found one. Maria is efficient, personable and gives a great wax/

Jul 31, 2011
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Very Professional
My visit to Maria was my first waxing experience. As a guy, I felt a little weird going in to have her wax my back, but she put me at ease right away and walked me through the whole process. She asked many times to make sure I was comfortable and not in any pain. She did a thorough job and was extremely friendly. I would highly recommend her.

http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Great service!
I thought Maria's personality and skill were both super! I am so glad I got the living social deal so I could try her out! I will definitely be a repeat customer!
-
Jul 24, 2011
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Best Brazillian ever
I have had many Brazilian waxes and this by far is my best experience. She does a through job and tries to minimize the pain where possible. I will definitely come back again.

Jul 19, 2011
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Made everything less painful
Like all the other review say, Maria makes you feel extremely comfortable. I've been to two other places that offer sugaring and she's the best. She's calm, walks you through what she's doing, and takes care of those straggler hairs that others leave behind (she says she's a perfectionist)

Jul 18, 2011
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Maria is Awesome!
Saturday was my first time visting this spa and first impressions are everything. I was very impressed! Maria is the best. She is very professional and makes you feel comfortable. She is also very gentle and friendly. I am definitely returning. Thanks again Maria!
-
Jul 16, 2011
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Maria is great!
Couldn't have asked for a better first brazilian waxing experience! Maria was honest about the fact that being my first wax, it would not be painless, but she made sure that I was comfortable and made me feel at ease the whole way through. Her prices and quality of work are a great find and she just earned another regular!
-
Jul 15, 2011
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Wonderful!
Maria is wonderful - so professional, yet friendly, gentle, and incredibly efficient. And I loved my results! I'm sure I'll be back, and I have already recommended Maria (and sugar waxing) to my friends. Thank you!
-
Jul 14, 2011
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Very good!
I went for the first time yesterday! Very pleased with my service! Maria is very professional and def knows what's she is doing. My brazillians usually take an hour but Maria finished in 20 mins! Highly recommended!
-
Jul 14, 2011
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Highly Recommended
I just recently had my SECOND brazilian sugar waxing and was even more impressed this time than the first time. I have even almost convinced, with Maria's subtle help, my fiance to do it too. Maria is friendly, knowledgable and puts you at ease. She moves quickly and efficiently, so there is less pain and stress to your body, and I have had no irritation or side affects from her procedure. For someone who never even shaved, I am truly a sugar wax fan for life!! Thank you Maria!!
-
Jul 11, 2011
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Amazing!
My first sugar waxing and I'm fully converted. Maria was very nice, quick and efficient. I can't believe I haven't used sugar waxing before, it didn't irritate my skin at all and it was so much faster and cleaner than traditional waxing. Thank you Maria!!!!
-
Jul 8, 2011
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Recommended!!!
Maria was great. Very friendly and professional, really put me at ease. It was my first sugaring experience and I thought it was a good alternative to waxing. I would recommend Maria to my friends!
-
Jul 7, 2011
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Maria was awesome
Maria was very detailed!! love the sugar wax that's different from other salons.. will go again! the price is really good also, other salons usually charge $65 but Maria charges only $40..
-
Jul 6, 2011
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Will definitely go back!
This was my first brazillian wax and I had a great experience. Maria was very nice and talked me through the whole procedure and about the special sugar wax she uses which she created for waxing the southern regions. It took no more then 20 mintues for the whole procedure and it was not painful at all before or after. I highly recommend going to the Maria body image studio.
-
Jun 30, 2011
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832NICE!
Maria was awesome! She is very nice and takes her time to make sure you are everything is ok. I love the sugar wax as well it seemed to be a little less painful.
-
Jun 30, 2011
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Will definitely go back!
I had a great experience with Maria! Her sugar made for the best sugar/waxing experience I've ever had! I wasn't brave enough for the Brazilian, but I might try it now that I see how gentle and easy it was!
-
Jun 30, 2011
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Okay bikini wax
I didn't get Maria for my wax because she was busy and I just had a regular bikini wax. The woman who helped me was very nice but the way she removed the wax was very painful and the end result wasn't very clean and straight...so, not the best bikini wax I have ever had. Next time I will definitely get a Brazilian so I am sure to have Maria.
-
Jun 29, 2011
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Great Brazilian Wax Experience
Maria is very sweet! She definitely took her time and made sure I felt comfortable with the whole experience. Even though my hair was not long enough she was able to make the experience as least painful as possible. I will definitely go back and already recommended all my girl friends to go to her as well.
-
Jun 29, 2011
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832First Sugar Wax
Maria was so nice and made me feel at ease. The process was fast, easy. It was definitely not pain free, but much better than waxing I have had at other salons.
-
Jun 29, 2011
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832pleased!
This was a very positive experience, Maria gave me what I asked for without her input. The wax she used was less painful that what I'm used to, my skin is usually sore after waxing. Maria is kind, personable, and puts you at ease. I will be returning!
-
Jun 27, 2011
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Fast and easy as it could be
My hair was a little too short but she still managed to get the job done. Very happy with the whole experience. The only part that I would change was the walk from the metro to the salon was a little sketchy, but the location itself is nice, and Maria is great.
-
Jun 27, 2011
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832First Brazilian Wax Experience
Maria is very nice, professional, friendly, and ensures a positive wax experience. It was my first time getting a brazilian wax, and she made sure I was comfortable and at ease. At the most it took her about 15 minutes to do. I will DEFINITELY go back to her for my next wax!
-
Jun 27, 2011
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Great First Impression
Very nice, professional, and made me feel comfortable despite the situation :) I will definitely go back to get another brazilian wax in 4 - 6 weeks.
-
Jun 27, 2011
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Great wax
Maria did a great job. It was my first time sugaring and by far less painful than regular waxing. I was out within 15 minutes. She was super nice and I was happy with the results.
-
Jun 24, 2011
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Great Brazilian Wax
Maria was blessedly quick and efficient--in and out with minimal pain in about 10 minutes. She was friendly and professional. Great experience! I'd definitely recommend her to my friends, especially those in Alexandria.
-
Jun 24, 2011
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Great place for waxing
Maria was very kind to me and my girls on top of providing an exceptional wax. The studio was clean, and Maria was extremely professional. I recommend Maria without hesitation.
-
Jun 23, 2011
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Best Place EVER!
Went in for my first bikini wax, the staff was great really friendly and professional, place was very modern. I would definitely recommend this studio
-
Jun 20, 2011
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Great deep tissue massage
This was my first time getting a massage from Maria, as I have purchased several Bloomspot massages. I have to say, I'm happy that I have several more certificates to use. The massage started a few minutes late due to her previous appointment running over, but she got me in the room quickly and started promptly. My certificate was for a 60 minute massage and it was about 55. The massage itself was fantastic.
-
Jun 20, 2011
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Maria was great
I got my eyelashes done with Maria. She is very kind, patient, and the time flew by! I will go back again at least until the wedding to keep my eyelashes looking pretty! Thank you, Maria!
-
Jun 19, 2011
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832the pain is temporary
Ready 1 2 3 - its like ripping a band aid off over and over again. New to the waxing world I too was impressed with the Sugar Wax. The post waxing tips are very helpful. Time will tell when I need to return for my next visit.
-
Jun 19, 2011
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Very professional and clean environment!
This was my first time trying Maria and she was wonderful! Very professional and a nice lady. I highly recommend going to her for any waxes you may have. I was very pleased with my results and highly recommend the sugar wax. Another plus is the price is amazing, you can't beat it. I will definitely return for her services.
-
Jun 19, 2011
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Awesomeness
I'm new to waxing and wasn't sure what to expect, but Maria was very patient, explaining the process every step of the way. She's VERY nice and a consummate professional.
-
Jun 16, 2011
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Maria has a new regular customer!
This was my first waxing experience. Maria made it a pleasant experience. Very professional and made me feel comfortable. And the price was great! Will definitely go back.
-
Jun 16, 2011
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832I'm a fan
Though I am not new to waxing this was my first sugaring experience. I will never go back to a traditional wax. Maria was quick and efficient. The salon was clean and I felt very comfortable. I will definitely be a regular.
-
Jun 12, 2011
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Maria is wonderful
I have been going to Maria for over a year now, and she is well worth the drive. Prompt, professional and very sunny, it's always a pleasure to see her.
-
Jun 11, 2011
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Great Service
I got a brazilian wax and Maria was terrific! She was patient, professional and made the experience as comfortable as possible. Reasonably priced too. I'll be back soon!
-
Jun 11, 2011
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832love the place but a little hard to find
I guess they just moved to this location-no name on the door-but once up there-very nice place. I had a body wrap done-technician, Marian, very professional & truly believes in the body wrap!
-
Jun 11, 2011
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Excellent Service
My experience was great. I got a brazilian wax that was affordable and fast. In and out in 30 minutes! She was professional and made the experience very comfortable and relaxing. She is definitely my new go-to gal!
-
Jun 10, 2011
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Great care at Maria body image studio
very attentive and professional. Clean place and quiet. Certainly will go back soon. Highly recommended. It fits my needs and will be customized to yours.
-
Jun 10, 2011
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832One of the best
I've been getting massages for years. This was one of -if not thee best massages...I've ever had! Maria was sensitive to the pressure she used, asking frequently if it was good. She found and worked out my problem areas. Terrific!
-
Jun 9, 2011
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Quick and efficient!
I had never had a sugar waxing before and Maria did a great job. Very quick, I was easily able to fit her in my lunch break! She makes you feel very comfortable.
-
Jun 7, 2011
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Outstanding Visit!
Oustanding experience... I will be going again. This was not my first brazillian wax so I knew what to expect. I'm glad I took the chance on trying a new place or I would of never met Maria. I believe I've found my new wax studio.
-
Jun 7, 2011
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Great first-time experience
Very comfortable setting in a salon. The process for a full brazilian wax only took about 30 minutes from when I walked in to walking out. Maria was friendly and compasionate for a first-timer like me. She was very professional and offered suggestions with me having such sensitive skin. She hagained another customer!
-
Jun 6, 2011
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Amazing Massage!
It was quite literally one of the best massages I have ever received. I consistently get massages about once a month and have been to various therapists in the Alexandria area. However, this was the first time that I truly felt a difference in the tightness in my shoulders, neck, and back. Maria has an incredible intuition regarding where the 'knot' is and and how best to apply pressure to remove the 'knot.' I also loved the lavender eye wrap and hot stones.
-
Jun 6, 2011
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Great Brazilian wax for a great price
Maria is very professional and gets the job done right and efficiently. She takes in consideration a my pain tolerance, and she always ensures that she provides great service at a great price.
-
Jun 5, 2011
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Great place, great customer service.
It was my first time there and my second brazilian wax ever. I chose sugaring because I heard it was the least irritating to sensitive skin and it is a lot less painful. I can tell you that Maria was excellent at her job I was in and out within 15/20 minutes and she even took me when I was 20 minutes late and the salon was about to close. Im horrible with pain but was actually nowhere near as bad as my first wax. I recommend this place to everyone I will definitely be back for the next!!
-
Jun 5, 2011
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Exceptional!!
I've been going to Maria for a while now and by FAR the best statistician I've ever had. She makes you feel very comfortable and constantly asks if you're doing okay (willing to take breaks if you need to breathe). She hasn't had the online booking for long, but it's awesome! She does all the jobs herself and stays busy and it's more convenient to book online. Definitely recommend Maria for anyone from first time, to seasoned waxers...she's AMAZING!!
-
Jun 5, 2011
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832definitely going back!
I learned about Maria through Living Social and will definitely go back for more waxing! Very professional and she works quickly. Not to mention, it's affordable even without the coupon. Thanks, Maria!
-
Jun 5, 2011
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832AMAZING!
I went to see Maria for my first Brazilian wax, I was scared after hearing some waxing horror stories from my friends. Maria was absolutely wonderful! She made you feel comfortable even though you wear minimal clothing for this particular waxing! and she makes sure you are ok throughout the session. I have already made my second appointment to see her and I have recommended her to numerous people! The sugaring wax is also a wonderful product! To sum it all up, go to Maria!!!!
-
Jun 4, 2011
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Great first time experience
This was my first brazilian wax, period, so cannot comment on this versus other waxing methods. Maria was calm and alerted me to the areas that would be particularly painful. She was very thorough and no additional tweezing was required. I would use her again.
-
Jun 4, 2011
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Great alternative to hot wax
Maria was wonderful and very kind. it was my first sugaring experience and it was at times much less painful than waxing. A huge benefit was that it doesn't burn at all. One downside is that unlike waxing, it does leave behind hair in unwanted places. I definitely had to do some tweezing myself and I don't know if this procedure is as thorough as I really want. All in all though, it was a great experience and Maria was great!
-
Jun 3, 2011
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Great
I had the brazillian sugar wax. She is great, patient and everything went fine. Very affordable and the online booking option is a total plus! I'll be back again for sure.
-
Jun 1, 2011
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Great service!!!
I'm Brazilian and I confess that Maria's suggaring waxing is much better than the real Brazilian wax I had done in my country. It's very quick and less painful than the hard wax. I'm so glad I found Maria who is a very nice and sweet person. The studio is super clean and the environment is relaxing and welcoming. I am so coming back!!
-
May 31, 2011
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Wonderful experience with great results!
I've seen Maria and Marion for body wraps, facial, micro lifting, and waxing. They create a very relaxing environment that produces results in one treatment! The waxing was painless and left absolutely no irritation! I always look forward to my time with Marian and Marion.
-
May 30, 2011
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832I am coming back
Guys, I am very happy with Maria's waxing. She is quick, professional and it hurts much less than a Brazilian with a normal wax. I am used with waxing, and hers is the less painful than any of the ones I've tried here in DC.
-
May 30, 2011
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Great experience :-)
This was my first experience with waxing - and I wanted to try a Brazilian waxing. Sugar is definitely the way to go. I can't imagine doing this with hot wax. Maria was very patient & helpful - I look forward to seeing her again in a few weeks :-)
-
May 30, 2011
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Least painful Brazilian Waxing/Sugaring
My first impression of Maria was that she was very warm and friendly, and made me feel comfortable. I had a brazilian wax/sugaring done, and it was the least painful one I have ever had. She checked to make sure I was ok throughout the session, and explained about the sugar that she used for the hair removal. Her prices area also competitive, and I will definitely be going back.
-
May 29, 2011
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Great Microcurrent Facial
I tried Maria's body image studio after finding a bloomspot deal for the microcurrent facial. I couldn't have asked for better! Marion was professional and thorough, yet gentle. For the first time I was able to relax enough that I even fell asleep a few times. I love that she asked if I wanted her to talk or just let me relax during the service and customized my facial with ascent of my choosing.
-
May 27, 2011
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Marion Massage
I received a 60 min massage from Marion and it was great. I've had at least 10 massages in my lifetime and this one was very different. I'm a runner now (and wanted to get some muscle relief before my half marathon next weekend) and she really worked hard at getting out my shoulder stress and my right glute muscle. I didn't realize how little flexibility I had in my neck and shoulders until after I left the massage and could actually look over my shoulder. I'll be back.
-
May 26, 2011
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Great Experience
This was my first bikini wax - and Maria made it a very comfortable experience! The sugar wax was amazing and I will definitely be back. I had a friend who went as well, who has had a wax before, and said that the sugar wax was life changing - she will never do anything else. Highly recommend Maria's!
-
May 25, 2011
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Sugar!!!
I'm not going to lie I was terrified to get my bikini wax because I have never done it before and Maria was amazing. Calmed me down and was so sweet! She did a great job as well. And I must say I loved this sugar method she does as well. I plan to go back.
-
May 24, 2011
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Sugar me smooth
Maria does a fantastic job with her homemade sugar recipe. I've been a few times and have definitely noticed a difference in the time it takes for the hair to grow back, and it's certainly thinner. I did have an issue with ingrown hair after my first visit, but I'm dutifully exfoliating daily and coming regularly. The salon is cute and clean and conveniently located off GW Parkway. You won't find a better value in NOVA.
-
May 24, 2011
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Professional and friendly
Staff was attentive and friendly. Place is very clean and comfortable. Happy with results of sugar waxing. Will definitely go back for other services.
-
May 23, 2011
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Maria is great!
I have been seeing Maria for a while now and I would not go anywhere else. I have been to 3 other waxing salons in the area before I found Maria and she is the best at what she does. She is quick and uses sugaring wax which is all natural - no chemicals which is a plus. Maria really cares about her clients and as I said before I would never go anywhere else.
-
May 22, 2011
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Slight discomfort with the most AMAZING RESULTS!!
I've had brazilian waxing before but Maria is the best esthetician ever!!! Yes I can not tell a lie, it was a little painful, but Maria constantly asked if I were okay, if I needed a break, always kind and considerate. I walked right in to the salon and she took me right back. I received the sugaring and I am in love with the results. I will definitely be going back. I found my deal on living social but I would gladly pay full price for her services!! Thank you Maria, you are the BEST!!!
-
May 22, 2011
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Amazing 60-min massage!
Yesterday, I had my first massage at Maria Body Image Studio, and it was by far the best massage that I have ever experienced. The studio is spotless and the service could not have been friendlier. I will definitely return for more treatments.
-
May 22, 2011
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832I'm now a fan of sugaring!
I purchased a brazilian sugaring with Maria through dealfind and it did not disappoint! The method of sugaring itself was SO much less painful than waxing and Maria made it go quickly (no strips, no burning, just quick and easy!). In total I think my appointment lasted 15 min. I'm so happy I found Maria and her sugaring technique (which more salons should have!). I will definitely be back for the same service all summer long and will be happy to pay the full price!
-
May 18, 2011
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Excellent appointment at Maria Body Image Studio!
I had an appointment for my first sugaring; the facilities were spotless, and Maria was on time, professional and took the time to explain the process and what she was going to do. Above everything else, I can't emphasize enough how kind she is! She made sure I was comfortable every step of the way, and she was fast. I couldn't be happier; I'm definitely going back to her.
-
May 18, 2011
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Amazing Experience at Maria Body Image Studio !
I had an hour massage at Maria Body Image Studio, and it was one of the most amazing and relaxing massages I've ever had in my life....she really took the time to loosen my muscles and remove any tension I had throughout my entire body. I highly recommend a massage with Maria!
-
May 17, 2011
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Great!
Maria was great! She continued to make sure I was comfortable the whole time and made a normally painful experience quick and bearable. I'll definitely be returning to see her in the future.
-
May 17, 2011
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Maria body image studio provided a great experience
Maria provided an atmosphere of comfort through out my experience. She talked to me the entire time and felt like we were family at the end. I have never dropped my pants that fast and felt that comfortable doing it. LOL
-
May 16, 2011
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Very sweet, knoledgeable, but not too detail oriented
Maria is very sweet and made me feel at ease during my first brazilian. She explained everything as she did it, and kept me talking to keep me distracted. I was a little surprised that she did not do as thorough a job as I had expected, given her rave reviews. Regular bikini waxes I have gotten in the past have included a thorough post-wax tweezing session, which Maria did not do. I had a number of stray hairs afterwards, which was somewhat disappointing.
-
May 16, 2011
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Excellent Service and fast!
I am very satisfied with my visit. I definitely plan to revisit. She was very nice, knowledgable about her services and quick! I am highly impressed.
-
May 15, 2011
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Awesome!
The customer service was awesome and the quality of the service I received was also awesome. Mariam and Maria were kind, gentle, and accommodating. This was my first time getting waxed and even though it was painful, it was made better because of their calm words, and gentle touch* I loved it... I feel so liberated! Thank You Maria and Mariam.
-
May 14, 2011
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Very Professional and Excellent Service
Ms. Maria is a very professional, skilled and wonderful person to recieve spa services from. Her location is very clean and peaceful - as you would expect from a spa. Have gone to her for a couple of months, and will continue to be a client! Sugaring was so much better than waxing and caused less irritation.
-
May 13, 2011
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Will be going back!
Maria was great!! The entire procedure was much less painful than getting a regular wax and Maria made the process actually enjoyable. The entire process took about 30 min and I went back to work with a smile on my face. Will be going back!
-

http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Best thing ever!!!
Maria is super. I have always waxed and the sugaring technique hurts a lot less. I am usually a drama queen whenever I am waxing, and Maria did not even get the chance to do so - it was super quick and as painless as it could be (pulling hair will never be painless, but with Maria it sure is tolerable...)

http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Awesome
Maria is very nice and patient with you. The sugaring method is great and caused less sensitivity. The area was smooth and less irritated after Maria was done. I will definitely go again!

http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832AMAZING!
I loved the sugar wax technique Maria uses...it is way better than the regular wax technique. I had the waxing done yesterday and I have zero irritation/bumps -which I usually get after getting the bikini wax. Maria rocks! She is very careful and doesn't rush to have things done to move on to the next customer. The location is great -I drove but it is also convenient to metro- and the studio is really nice. I really liked every single second of this service!

Maria is very good at what she does. This is my second visit and my eyelashes look beautiful. Maria is an artist. She has a great place and she values your time. I have already made my next appointment.

http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Definitely going back!
Maria was extremely friendly and put me immediately at ease. Her sugar product is incredible and didn't aggravate my super-sensitive skin. I paid $40 for a brazilian wax and that's way cheaper than anywhere else. That's why I'll definitely be going back to Maria.

http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Great Service
I just had my first appointment with Maria through the coupon she offered on LivingSocial. The experience was very pleasant and I plan to schedule with her again. I have been getting waxed for years and had no trouble with her technique. She was also very friendly and understanding when I arrived late to my appointment because of traffic.

http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Excellent Esthetician!!
Maria is an excellent esthetician who uses a very unique style of waxing. I've been getting waxed for years, and this was the first time I didn't feel tender or sore afterwards!! She is also very friendly and engaging with her clients, making the overall experience very relaxing and comforting! I only wish her shop was a little closer to D.C.

http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Great place
They are the nicest people I've ever met in a salon. I did the slim wrap and it was comfortable and everyone was very nice. I would recommend to my friends.

http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Very nice, very clean
Maria did a really great job, and was really friendly. It was a bit more painful than other waxes I've had, but that may just be because it's been a while. I wasn't a huge fan of the sugar wax compared, I prefer hard wax. The sugar may irritate less the first time around, but it seems like she had to go back over the same spot in order to get everything. But, Maria was great, and in all it was a good experience

http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Wonderful service
I had the body wrap and due to the fact that it was a last minute 1 time wrap I didn't lose a lot of inches ~4inches total but the service was great and I will definitely be revisiting this salon.

http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Top Notch Experience
I had the body wrap - I genuinely lost more than 10 inches. Went home and fit perfectly into a dress that was too snug before the wrap. I highly recommend Maria's studio.

This was my first bikine wax and Maria made me feel completely comfortable. She took her time and talked me through everything. I was very concerned about the pain and it is painful but she made it as comfortable as possible. I have already recommended her to a friend and i will definitely be going back.

Apr 24, 2011
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832A wonderful find!
I used to get waxed but moved here recently and found Maria on yelp.com. The reviews are correct - she is professional, yet kind, light, and one simply cannot feel uncomfortable during the sugaring. And it, btw, is great too. I definitely have fewer in-grown hairs with sugaring. I just hope Maria does not get too busy . ..

http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832I'm a convert!
Maria is exactly the type of person you want performing a bikini wax: knowledgable, professional, and thoughtful. I'd had only "traditional" waxing done in the past, and I'm not going back.
-
Apr 20, 2011
http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Extremely professional
My first brazilian wax with Maria was excellent, she explained thoroughly what she was doing and made me feel completely relaxed and comfortable. Very clean and gentle. I wish she were closer but I will definitely drive 45 min again to come see her!

http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832first sugar wax
this was my first brazilian sugar wax and it was great. Maria was very patient, quick and talked me through the whole thing. It wasn't nearly as painful as I thought it would be. she was very sanitary and informative. there are a few stare hairs left but nothing too noticeable. I love my wax! I'll definitely be back!
-

http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Awesome
Maria was really nice. The bikini wax was super cheap, especially when compared with other places in DC! I was in and out in 25 minutes. The sugar wax was less painful than traditional waxes, but just as accurate. I will definitely be going back!

http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30106832Awesome place...awesome service!
I have tried a few places for the brazilian wax service. Maria's salon was the best considering I have sensitive skin. She had wonderful bedside manners, her pricing is great, and is very sanitary. She's a sweet lady herself. I would recommend this place in a heartbeat!

Maria is extremely kind, pays attention to detail and always goes more than above and beyond than any other spa I have ever been too. She loves her job and enjoys the results that she gives to her customers. I look forward to seeing her every two weeks and her prices are great. I have referred her to three of my friends and they are now repeat customers, as well. Thank you so much Maria!!!
