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, !!

Great Brazilian bikini waxing. Never Do your Bikini wax in a place that uses hard wax it might hurt a bit more to use strip but its worth knowing that thereis no recycling involved. Glamour uses strip waxing .

For waxing services, you simply cannot find any better than Amelia at Glamour. I’ve been a client of hers for over a year now and I’ve consistently been thrilled with the results of all of my waxing with her: Brazilian, legs, arms, underarms, lip, and eyebrows! She is certainly one of Miami's best kept secrets in the beauty biz, but I am quite sure that won't last long. One of the things I like most about Amelia is that she is extremely passionate about what she does and will always strive to do a perfect job for you. Her Brazilian Bikini Wax is expertly done -- thorough, fast, and professional. The spa provides a lovely atmosphere that makes you feel at ease, as does Amelia & her team . I especially recommend Glamour by Js to anyone getting a Brazilian for the first time, or to those who are shy.

I'am in love with Glamour by J's.. Amelia IS A GODSEND!! I'm still in shock at how quick and basically painless (yes, I said painless) my waxing job was with Amelia! In about 12 minutes and six swipes she was done! I couldn't believe she had gotten everything but she had. If you go to Glamour by J's, DEFINITELY go to Amelia or ask her who she recommends . Last time I went to another place (don't remember thename not important , but i remember it sucked), and it took four times as long and hurt ten times as much! It was horrible & I did walk out in pain. when I was done all i wanted to do was give her a huge kiss and I walked out smiling. She's got some serious know-how. I can def recommend pain free brazilian bikini wax to all my friends now..kudos yay

THE BEST WAX!!!. As an actual brazilian customer I can tell you that Ive never been so well received in a waxing salon before. I spent 2 years waxing in different non-brazilian places before a friend informed me about the them. And no one have ever done such a top of the line work like they do. Yes the bikini wax can be painful at the begining but after a couple times you cab barely feel it, as the hair grows weaker and the pain goes down as well. I did it in the begining with a couple of them and now i only do it with JP, shes the best.

Finally a good brazilian service by actual brazilians. I am from brazil and so I am acostumed to wax and manicures brazilian style & well done ! I am very demanding of the service that I receive because I know whats great and once you experience great, then anything less than it cannot go unnoticed .Usually when I don’t like the service that I received I just pay and dont come back. This place did a wonderful job I am vry excited !!! The technitian was attentive, professional, friendly, and talented. I know it's a bit pricey but if you get more services done you get freebies, and also I have learned that it is best to go with quality. I have been to too many nail salons where the people were unprofessional, ruined my toes , and I spent more money trying to fix the ingrown problem which only damaged my toe further. Thank you Amelia for fixing my bikini facial and my medicured toes xoxo muitos beijos & muita sorte !!!
