Business Owner

My nickname is bz, like WBZ, without the W. I received my esthetician license in 2007. I am an expert at Brazilian waxing and love doing facials. During my career, I have worked in health clubs and spas.

My goal is to help each one of my clients feel better. Whether through a relaxing facial or becoming hair free during a waxing appointment.

I had my first facial in way too long and BZ was great! She was very informative and explained what she was doing and why throughout the whole process. She has a great array of products and is very considerate about choosing the best product for you based on your skin and your preferences. Very good experience! I’ll be back next month!

Second facial of the year with BZ and just booked my third. Went to see her based on Unilocal reviews and was not disappointed. Wax is gentle, she is friendly and gives a great face massage.

Bz at Body Zen took great care of me with a facial I had been putting off for years. She explained the nuances of my face and described everything she was doing as we went along… without making it sound like she wanted me to walk out of there with an armful of products. She was very thorough and understanding. I will definitely return to Bz for my next facial.

BZ is so nice and really makes you feel comfortable especially for the Brazilian! She’s super good at what she does and I’ve been 100% satisfied with the results. She explains what she’s doing and does a good job keeping you distracted during the painful parts. She’s my #1 go to for all things waxing in Cambridge and Boston.

This is an update for brazilian waxing. The waxing lady contacted me with a very nice message and offered to try again and special deal on price. I guess that day was just off for her. And we all have them. I really do appreciate the effort for reaching out and honesty. If you are a small business, this is way to go. All the best.

I had a great experience here on several occasions! I have been for both bikini and underarm waxes, and highly recommend BZ.

Awesome experience here! I was super nervous about getting my first Brazilian wax. BZ was great — calm, professional, and explained everything that she was doing. She uses high-​quality wax (zero irritation afterwards) and the whole space is very clean. I’ve been back a few times now and don’t plan on going anywhere else.

I have been going to BZ for a couple of years and have been meaning to write a review. I keep going back for a reason! She doees a great job and is professional, flexible and friendly. Also, her wax is great and does not irritate. She is great at her trade and the environment is comfortable and calming.

Just awesome! BZ is a great professional, fast and precise. She makes you very comfortable during the procedure, and the hard wax helps a lot. It is gentle on skin, and makes the whole thing almost painless! I’ll definitely come back.

Every other spa in this area seems to be afraid of waxing men’s bodies… like we have some mysterious plague or something. This place didn’t have any problems. BZ was professional and super helpful at keeping me calm while she worked. She kept me informed of what she was doing and was the friendliest person I’ve chatted with in a long time. I felt completely comfortable in what could have been a very uncomfortable situation with another aesthetician. She uses a wax that doesn’t stick to skin so the pain was minimal. Redness faded quickly. Very happy with the service here.
She is busy though, so book early!

I’d like to preface this review by saying that I have had many Brazilian waxes over the past 10+ years by multiple different people, but this was by far the best experience. BZ is friendly, professional, understanding, and ensures you are completely comfortable. She explains exactly what she is planning on doing before she does it. She is fast but very efficient and the end result was fantastic. This was the least painful wax I have ever had. Usually everything is red and puffy for 1 – 2 days after, but this was not the case this time around, post-​wax. I live in Pittsburgh but travel to Boston often and plan on booking my appointments prior to each of my Boston trips.

I have been going to BZ for waxing services for about 6 months and she is amazing! Not only does she make you comfortable with the whole process, but she does a really nice job. I would recommend her to anyone in the area who is looking for great work from a nice person :-)

My last appointment was for a brow wax as well as a facial. A little background: in 2004, an evil waxer at Dellaria’s salon made my eyebrows shorter even though i requested them thinner. That made me look super awful, I left in disbelief and a state of shock and had not let anyone touch my eyebrows until about 2009 by a highly recommended waxer at Healthworks. She was good, but she made them seem a bit too high maintenance by waxing them AND trimming the hairs and telling me I need to keep them trimmer. That led to me overtrimming and overtweezing on my own. My friend tried to convince me that I needed to draw them in which made me look like groucho on and on and on (even when I started to get used to it).
During our typical facial appointment, BZ said that she does waxing and massages and I decided to grow out my eyebrows for a month. She waxed them (almost pain free) for 10 mins. She consulted me before making crucial moves and the brows came out PERFECT. PERFECT, ladies (and gentlemen, if you are so inclined). AND she did not have to trim them. She left me with a full and slightly arched look. I love my brows.

I needed a wax and my usual spot in Saugus was booked solid, so after cruising on Unilocal I found BZ.
I scheduled an appointment for Saturday and showed up. Only problem is that I scheduled the appt. for November, and showed up a week early. BZ was super accommodating and took me because luckily other folks rescheduled their appointments and she had some availability.
The Brazilian wax was awesome and for the most part painless. I asked her if she would use more powder (I find that it hurts a lot less with powder) and she happily agreed. She used hard wax, which I love and the process was over in no time.
I keep stressing to BZ how much I appreciated her squeezing me in after I came on the wrong day. BZ is very sweet and professional and gave me great service.

I purchased a Groupon discount for three Brazilian waxes for a really great deal, and have been coming for the past 4 months on a pretty regular basis. The location was a bit confusing because I didn’t realize that the Body Zen Skin Care and Massage is inside of a hair salon. Other than that, I think this is one of the best waxing places in the area. I have been searching for a bunch of different places to get a brazilian, eyebrow, lip, and chin waxes. I am the kind of person who doesn’t go as often as she should, but once I find the right esthetician/​waxer, then I am pretty loyal.
BZ is really great. Not only is she completely professional, she’s also really personable. I actually came to get waxed before my wedding and she took extra time with me. I also brought one of my bridesmaids with me who got a leg wax and a brazilian and said that she really liked how BZ communicated with her about the services (which service would go first, what to do when, etc.). I also think that her prices are really reasonable (I’ve paid less at some places and more at others and find that she is a really great value for the quality she gives).
I highly recommend BZ and her waxing services.

BZ just gave me the best brow shaping experience and result I’ve ever had. It was a little magical.
I came in here because I had a groupon. After one session I can tell I’m going to become a regular. My first impression of BZ and her work space were excellent. The space is immaculate and organized (which is good since it is also small).
BZ not only talked to me about how I wanted my brows to look she showed me how much hair she was going to remove, where to arch the brow etc. She also paused to do some tweaking of how much arch I wanted and made sure I checked the results with my glasses on. The waxing was pain free. My eyes didn’t even water.
The online booking site she uses is simple and easy to use. I really appreciate places that let you either book online or at least see availability.
I’m very pleased with how my brows look and will be heading back.

I purchased a special deal through Unilocal for a massage. I don’t get to treat myself often, and this was a great deal. I actually couldn’t find the place and got nervous because I didn’t want to be late. It turns out her treatment room is inside a salon, but we cleared it up as BZ picked up the phone right away when I called.
BZ is clearly experienced in massage and I appreciated her relaxed, yet professional attitude. She asked me about trouble areas and what kind of pressure I prefer, and proceeded to give me a wonderful massage. I don’t always feel chatty during a massage, but I really liked BZ’s personality, and she didn’t seem to mind when I engaged her in some light conversation. The room was small, but cozy, and I liked having soft lighting during my massage.
I highly recommend BZ for massage. I really appreciate her offering this special deal for those of us (teachers) with limited budgets. :)
