Thank You Cindy!
by Margi P at Citysearch
I just got back from visiting Pink Cheeks Salon. I have been going there for awhile now and even tho I only see Cindy, she and I talk about things like she was my true friend. She gives me insight, feedback and objective perspective on things I struggle with in life while she is working on me and I always come out of there feeling better, in every way. Her quality of work is excellent. My life is falling apart right now (-money, -relationship - job) but I had the need for a wax, something to make me feel better, cleaner... so I went in to Pink Cheeks. When I went up front to pay the very nice receptionist told me that my wax was a “Love Donation” from Cindy. Cindy, it’s those thoughtful gestures that you do that make you the wonderful person that you are. No wonder that your lobby is packed, that your employees respect and love you and that you are the success in business that you are. You are a genuinely kind person. P.S. It was also very mind-blowing to pass the singer “Pink” coming down the hallway while I was leaving. Whoa! She is SO COOL!!! Double Pleasure Day at Pink Cheeks! Thank You Cindy!
- Pros: Cindy, Cindy, Cindy!
- Cons: I have to wait for my hair to grow to come back

I have been getting waxed for about 6 years now. I recently moved to Los Angeles from San Diego, I was asking around to get a recommendation of a good place to get a bikini wax. A guy I have been dating suggested Pink Cheeks because he read that where a lot of P*rn Stars go, and you know they have to look good down there so I checked it out. When I got there it seemed as if I was in a flea market bunches of thing surrounded me for sale and not just salon products. There were homemade crafts and snacks I found that to be a bit off. I was 10 mins early for my appt and I wasn't seen until 45 mins after my appt. There were 3 other women and a man waiting as well. One woman grew anxious and went to ask how much longer it would be, then the receptionist looked at the appt schedule and went around to all of us waiting customers pointing at us individually saying she has a Brazilian, she has a playboy, she has an an@l bleaching, and he has a full back wax so about 45 more mins. I was appalled. I know it's not a Dr.s office but I would still think it to be confidential. When I finally got called she pretty much just put me in the room and shut the door, not knowing if I was a first timer or anything didn't give any instruction at all. During the process I found her to be very short with me not responding to attempted conversation, the process was very painful like I said I have been doing this for years and never has it ever been this painful. She only used about 5 strips which as another reviewer stated as well but she mentioned it like it was a good thing when in fact it's not, She pulled out hair from different areas with one strip hair that grows in different directions in each area if you don't pull the correct way you get severe in growns which I did. It took a whole 3 months for my hair to grow back in properly (+there was 3 months of itching and discomfort from the ingrowns) Then she says "up on all fours" I felt like I was being treated like a dog. Then she glopped the wax on so thick in every crevice in the back, even areas that don't grow hair. Needless to say it was very uncomfortable and painful, unlike the other professional places Ive been to. When she was done she just walked out of the room and said nothing. I went to the front to go pay and the receptionist was on a personal phone call and was ignoring me for a good 3 mins she then puts her call on hold takes my payment and before giving my change says "How much do you want to tip" I thought this was rude and unprofessional. Over All BAD experience * * * NOT RECCOMENDED * * *
- Pros: None
- Cons: Rude, Unprofessional, Ingrowns soon to follow treatment

I Love Cindy!!!!!
by MichelleMyBell at Citysearch
Cindy is amazing!! The last time I got waxed, I went to this place called Treats For Your Face and the owner waxed me. I had never really felt so much pain! She claimed to be the best waxer in town and the way she kept pulling my hair was excruciating!! I didn't think it was going to end. The way she kept telling me to breath did not help at all. Then on top of that, she was rude. Seemed like maybe she was frustrated since I had grown out my hair for a while=) When I went to Cindy she was done within 5 min. Didn't hurt nearly as bad and she was sooo nice to me. Definitely knows how to treat people and she knows how to be a good business woman. Will return!
- Pros: Faster than anyone who has ever waxed me!
- Cons: Little wait time
