Leia is a skin GENIUS! She is calming, friendly, caring, happy, and an overall JOY to be around. I have been WAXING for about 25 years. Tired of all the inconsistent and botched jobs at the random places I was trying since moving to NE Ohio (or alternately remaining hairy until I returned to my regular spot in NYC - this was becoming less and less feasible as the time btwn visits was expanding), I decided to put my money towards my desired outcome, and gave a high-end salon a try. There I met Leia. My experience left me dumbfounded, like "Yeah, I'll pay for this" as my relaxed body and mind was peeled from the table. (No post waxing irritation!!!) After such a relaxing & enjoyable waxing experience (seems like an oxymoron, no?!), I went for a FACIAL. Good Lord, I had gone to heaven! When Leia opened her own spot, there was NO doubt I'd drive the 40 minutes just to get waxed.
I gift facials to my 20-something daughter time & time again; each time she visits me an appt w Leia is eagerly awaited. Most recently I took my mom to Leia for a facial. My mom is sparse w praise and quick to critique. My mom was BLOWN away by Leia in every way. My mom had some "trouble" areas and while initially resistant to Leia's advise, followed the advise and experienced unexpected results. She also became a Leia devotee, and told me, "Book us appts when I next visit Ohio". Need I say more?! So from 20-something skin (my daughter) to 40-something skin (me) to 60-something (my mom), Leia has the midas touch!
This is a small one person operation. Don't expect a receptionist to answer the phone. It may take a day or two for Leia to get back to you, and then she will personally respond to your inquiry and set up an appt to meet your needs.
On another note - Leia is ALL about a BODY POSITIVITY! No body shaming here. Any size, any shape, any gender - Leia's mission, goal, objective is to make you feel beautiful! Beautiful and relaxed you will feel once Leia lays hands on you and soothes you w her beautiful, calming voice and smile.
Can't wait for my next appt! =)
