Hi, this isn't actually a review but I'm visiting Boston at the end of the month and will be staying near this salon and I want to book myself in for a bikini wax. I can't find a website for them though, can...

Oxana is the best!!

I visited Oxana for brazilian bikini waxes for 4 years or so and her skill and dedication to good work is unparalleled! I've been to countless salons and spas around the country and have never found anyone who...

Not too pleased this time

I just wrote a review a few months agoabout previous positive experiences, but this time I am not too pleased. She missed a lot of spots and gave me an uneven landing strip right before my vacation. I'm not...

Awesome Experience,Gentle waxing from Oksana

I had my very first wax at Newbury Day Spa with Oksana and she was the best! Despite other reviews I read, she is very friendly, talkative and does not reuse sticks in the wax! She was also very gentle with...

Great spa

I like this spa because they accept walk in appointments with little wait time. I got Irine for a facial. She did a great job and I will definitely be coming back again.

Great Brazilians!

I've been going to Newbury Day Spa for over a year for Brazilian waxing. No matter who does it for me, I'm in and out in 10 minutes and the job is as painless as possible. One of the best parts is that while...

HORRIBLE. Hasty, wax made me bruised and was incredibly painful. Pay $10 more and go to a nicer spa.

They were really lazy and hasty. Unlike most spas, they gave me barely anytime to change, then did the wax terribly and made me bruised. They didn't even give me tissue or a towel to clean up afterwards like...

Horrible "people skills" ; not interested in acquiring new clients

brazilian- quick and thorough

After reading the reviews, I gave this place a try and saw Irene for a bare brazilian. I was seriously out in less than 10 minutes. Even though its quick, I didn't feel like she was rushing, she just knows...

Its not practical to go anywhere else!

So here is the thing! The reviews you are reading that are negative are probably coming from the same woman who take the day off to go to the spa, or don?t work in the first place. This is hands down the best...

Visit here if you don't mind having your wax stick double dipped and reused

I agree with other reviewers in that this is the quickest brazilian wax I have ever experienced as well as the cheapest. But you get what you pay for here. I don't mind that the place is not the most up to...

Oksana is a miracle

I agree with everyone: Oksana is fantastic. I got my first Brazillian, I have sensitive skin, and while it was far from a painless experience I'd shudder to imagine how it would be with someone less quick,...
