Best brazilian & Eyebrow waxing in Miami Beach.. I should begin this review with a disclaimer: I am a beauty editor by trade, and therefore have the extreme fortune of being able to go to just about any spa/salon I want and review it for my column.

So, it's super rare for me to go ANYWHERE more than once. And this goes for everything from my hair to my waxing to my facials.

However, I've been getting my brows shaped and tinted by Amelia at Glamour by Js every three weeks for about three months now...and I have no plans on going anywhere else any time soon.

Why? Well, Amelia is amazing. My hair is very tightly curly - and yet fine baby hairs - so difficult to do evenly and fully. She intricately designs, and shapes, one tweezed hair at a time, until her vision is complete. She trims, she works on you a very long time - this is not one of those 20-minute joints - all my visits to Amelia are around 25-35 minutes...and she does an amazing job. My Bikini & brows are evenly shaped, and grow evenly...something I couldn't say at some of the city's priciest, most exclusive salons. And her tinting is the perfect shade for me. I just slap it on before I start my Brazilian wax and by the time she finishes the color is done.

What I also love is that she's at an extremely affordable price point - making her an obvious choice over city counterpoints. And she has a frequent user point system that rewards her loyal customers - which I hear is a growing bounty!

Def. visit Amelia - and tell her Mikaella sent you!

This is as bestess as it gets !!!. Ok 1st thing is first ...You should never be price oriented when it comes to something so personal and in an area so sensitive such as the bikini area! My strategy is find the place that has a price a few dollars higher than the other and then read their reviews online, it never fails, those

$15-20 is what separates the good from the great. So after doing a thorough search online I came up with a few and decide after careful analysis that @GlamourbyJs was IT. As I arrived I was warmly welcome by a very polite gentleman in a beautiful & bold Louis xv RED center table that I truly wanted to take home with me lol . To summarize my tech was swift, gentle and most important of all experienced! Everyone thinks that waxing is just slapping the wax on and then pull it off ....I don’t know about you but I am very well well-versed and it takes a bit more than that . Hence this is where the experience thing that I mentioned comes in. Remember the saying “you get what you pay for”.

painless , baby skin again , thoroughness. After Trying Brazilian Waxing with the best "Glamour by J's " I consider myself to be an expert now on brazilian waxing, So i can finally write a review because I have found myself searching the web for opinions of the procedure before undergoing it in the past. So i decided to write for you ! I am sooo happy I went ahead and tried it! Let me just be clear that do-it-yourself does not even come close to comparing to a Glamours by JS brazilian wax, with the right person performing it of course( Amelia). I was shaving and having horrible ingrowns, itchiness and bumps which have even scarred and I always dreaded the quick regrowth. I finally decided I wanted to try waxing, BIG MISTAKE, due to the fact that the very first time I performed my own and it was a mess. I couldn’t even bear the pain and after the first rip I found myself unable to finish. Okay so first of all, if you are going to do it at home, DO NOT DO IT YOURSELF THE VERY FIRST TIME. Brazilians can be pretty spendy if done on a regular basis, but I find that after the first time I can maintain it myself by simply waxing the hairs as they grow in. Definately finding a good salon to go to for first timers wasnt easy but a friend recommended me to Glamour by JS. The brazilian is typically all the hair removed, front and back, either with a landing strip (thin line of hair above the lips) or bare. I have always gotten everything removed and been bare, but I have been very interested in the landing strip so I went ahead and got that done today for the first time. I’m loving it! Brazilian waxes make the skin feel so smooth and sexy. It’s so nice that I have smooth skin for about three weeks. Amelia , who does mine is VERY quick and I am very comfortable with her, I’ve been going to her for a couple years now. This is very important because I have had one bad experience where I felt very uncomfortable, the lady took forever and all the hairs weren’t even gone!

The pain isn’t bad, not even close to what some people make it sound to be. If your thinking about trying it, I’d definately recommend it!

Best Brazilian bikini waxing in this planet period !!. I have been going to Glamour by J's for a bit over over 5 years...and yes... they are the best...Before going there...I tried various places in Miami beach Coral Gables , Brickell...from cheap to mid range to expensive...and they all turned out horrible .....I finally gave in....went to Glamour by Js after a botched job - and paid them to fix all the ingrown from the previous places ......and I have never turned back....

I adore Amelia .....She has such great humble energy and is super efficient....she gets EVERYTHING...and works swiftly ....their secret blue oil really does help with soothing you and preventing ingrowns and bumps...she listens to you....and I never feel rushed...Even when I'm late...they always accommodate me...Going to Glamour by J's is like hanging out with my peeps I love it !....

I always tip 20% or more because the final results r impecable and consistent.

Like I tell all my friends...leave Brasilian Waxing to the professionals....Glamour by J's...and no one else.....

I lost mine to Glamour by J's. I used to slightly resent the popularity with brazilian bikini waxes. Why would women put themselves through such pain in the name of beauty? Until I tried it. Now I'm hooked i have baby skin everytime !! If you are going to a professional who has a technique and can coach you through it, it is not as bad. Amelia is a pro and while I am certain everyone at this spa is just as good I'd rather not mess with perfection. She is professional, gentle with 1st timers lol makes you feel at ease and does a superb job. Obrigada, !!
