Sugar & Swank Skincare Spa

Sadly, the owner has decided to close shop for now. Awesome facials, brow and lash tinting and products.

Their entrance is very confusing, as it’s by the street and up a set of slightly hidden stairs. Luckily the ladies in the downstairs unit have seem confused folk like me a lot, apparently, and ably gave directions with a smile.
They have a small entrance seating area with no front desk, and when I came in no one was around, so I took a seat and waited. Someone helped me within a few minutes of my arrival.
My facial was nice, with the chatty beautician giving an excellent facial massage and not upselling me too much. Confusingly, she gave me some advice on extractions at home but then promptly did things the way she told me not to. Finally, she waxed my lip and it’s been rash-​y and breaking out over the last five days — normally after a lip wax, I’m a bit tender, but this is an unusual development and the reason I rated the business so poorly. I think they have a lot of potential, but perhaps should watch their sanitation procedures a bit more carefully.
