Christine has made all my experiences painless and entertaining, she has a very calming voice, and keeps your thought away from pain. Been with her a few times to get my brows and Brazilian. Been coming to ELIXR for years and ever since she began been booking all my appointments with her. Definitely recommend her

Let me preface by saying that my first time Brazilian was fine, not scary, and comfortable. Nothing was really wrong at all. It was not at Elixr but a different wax lounge. I had some SpaFinder gift certificates that needed to be used, so like the true Elite that I am, I searched on the SpaFinder website, then researched the place on Unilocal for the 5 star places. There were three other places I called before I called Elixr. And each three didn’t seem very pleasant or accommodating. But when I called Elixr, Christine was so pleasant and warm and accommodating on the phone, I made an appointment with her right away. Coming here was a little bit strange. It’s located in a medical building next to the Kaiser Permanente buildings off Wing Street in Point Loma. Fourth floor, tiny white and clean space. Christine met me, offered me water, and made me feel like I was her best friend in two seconds. I told her it was my second time, first time was fine but I didn’t get the full Brazilian because I was told it was really really painful to get the middle. So she said don’t worry, I won’t even know when she gets there. And she was right! She was so funny and friendly, I didn’t feel awkward at all. By the time she was done, I asked her if she did the middle part yet and she said she did it already. She walked me through the entire ripping part, and it wasn’t as bad as it was the first time. And my first time wasn’t even bad. Just shows how awesome Christine is at her craft. I was so comfortable with her, that I bought their promotion they had for gift cards just so I can come to her again. If you’re a newbie, please ask for Christine Baker. She is so wonderful. And when you have someone touching your nether regions, you need to have a bestie be on your side. This will be my waxing place forever. Thanks Christine! Hope you get some more ladies your way!

I came here a few weeks ago for a Brazilian wax! Christina was great and very sweet. We were laughing the whole time… I didnt think a vagina wax could be so fun! Thanks again!

I wish that I could give ten stars for Christine’s work! I found this location on Groupon and decided to give it a try since I live in Point Loma. The building is a bit tucked away but the waxing studio is absolutely gorgeous. The décor is modern and very well lit and spotless. I arrived early and filled out a new client form. Christine greeted me with the warmest smile and invited me to help myself to a few Dum Dums. She immediately made me feel at ease and had me laughing throughout the entire appointment. As far as the waxing went, it was completely painless. Christina explained that Elixr uses both hard and soft waxes, something that I hadn’t experienced before. She also asked me if I needed to stretch during the appointment which was really considerate and also something I had not been asked previously. The entire experience was great and I will definitely be back! Reminder for Groupon users to please tip on the original amount! I can’t wait to come back next month :)

So just as the other reviews state, the place is a little hidden. but they have signs everywhere so it’s not that big of a deal. Suite 401 :) So upon walking in, you see how lit and girly everything is. It looks super cute! I was super nervous since I’ve never had a Brazilian done before. so I took ibuprofen before going in and got the numbing cream once I was there. Amanda is the one who was helping me out and she’s freaking awesome! Right as I walked in she called me by name(I had made an appointment prior) and was very welcoming. I explained how nervous I was and she was super comforting and explained everything to me. So 30 minutes later, I was done! And it did not hurt as bad as I thought so that’s a plus. And like I said, Amanda is awesome. She’s super friendly and makes you feel relaxed. I will definitely be returning here and get my appointment with Amanda again. Ladies, your girl needs love! Take her here! You will not regret it ;)

This place is the cutest! The girls who work there are adorbs and know eyebrow waxing! I have gone twice and know that I won’t have wonky or too thin eyebrows. The first time I went she did a very good job including a full pencil line shaping to show how my eyebrows were uneven and where I needed to fill in. All for $ 20 — and it’s well worth it! Don’t risk getting a bad wax or even worse, losing skin by going to a run-of-the-mill nail salon. Those places are like the bottom of the barrel for waxing. I used to go to those and my eyebrows were never consistent in shape. The other great thing is Elixr does such a good job I did the maintenance on my own for 2 months and my eyebrows kept the same shape. Plus, they do great promotions and I need to go back for a Brazilian.
