Smooth Beauty Studio

I found this studio through Unilocal and was able to set an appointment with Lynn with ease. It was my first bikini wax and I was a bit scared, but she makes the atmosphere completely comfortable and answers any questions! I won’t go to anyone but Lynn– I’m so satisfied with not only the process but the results!

I made an appointment with Lynn for my pre-​wedding wax. And from the moment I first contacted her, she’s been so helpful. I got there about 10 minutes early and texted her to let her know I was there. She immediately came out and got me.
She provides wipes to clean yourself before and a towel to cover up. She talked me through everything, especially because I’ve never used hard wax before.
She uses a top quality wax and made sure she got EVERYTHING off. She spent a lot of time making sure I was as clean as ever. We talked the whole time and she just makes you feel so comfortable. I wish I were staying in Hawaii so I can be a regular client of hers.
There’s a reason she gets 5 stars, because she’s amazing at what she does and the customer service that she gives each client.

Lynn was absolutely amazing! She makes you feel so comfortable and at peace about your service! It was the best appointment I’ve ever had. I can’t wait to go back to her again!

Lynn is very accommodating and she’s very good. I’m so glad I was able to make an appointment with her, now I found the best waxing place here in honolulu.

Literally just finished my FIRST time ever Brazilian wax with Lynn. She is amazing at making you feel comfortable. It really was a «smooth» experience lol. But in all seriousness it went a lot better than I expected. Of course it hurt, but it really does depend on the person. I handle pain well so I didn’t find it excruciating.
Finding the salon was very easy it’s right on the corner and there was ample parking for a Friday afternoon. I walked in and no one was at the reception desk so I waited about 5 minutes and Lynn greeted me. She had me fill out paperwork and because I was super early, I waited a bit until she was finished with her client.
When she was ready, I was guided to a small, cozy room towards the opposite end of the hallway. She instructed me on what to do, how to do it & we jumped right in. She told me ways on how to breathe during the waxing. And during we just held a comfortable conversation. I was done in about 20 min.
Lynn is truly a comfortable woman to do your Brazilian, especially if you’re extremely shy like me.

I’ve been seeing Lynn for several months now, and there’s a reason why I keep going back! She runs a very clean, stress-​free, and professional business. She is also very easy to be in contact with, whether it’s confirming or rescheduling appointments, she always fits you into her schedule for a time that works for you. With a convenient location and easy month to month scheduling, I hope you check her out because you and your wallet won’t be disappointed!

Lynn is amazing! She makes you feel comfortable and welcomed! My first time ever getting a brazillian! Her results are amazing for $ 45 you really cant beat it. She gets everything while making sure youre okay. Customer service is awesome and results last a long time, hair grows back thinner. Seriously, I selfishly didnt want to post this because Im worried shell get busy but shes that amazing that I want others to enjoy as well! Thank you Lynn, happy and satisfied customer:)

Today was the first day I went to Lynn for a Brazilian wax & so far I love her! Before coming here, I would go to the The Waxing Company for my Brazilian waxes. However, it really is pricy & my favorite aesthetician there had left so I decided to come to a different place to get my waxing done. I searched on Unilocal,and came across this place & thank goodness I found Lynn. She really is sweet and easy to talk to, not only that but a Brazilian wax is only $ 45 (compared to $ 85 & $ 65 for maintenance at the waxing co.)! The place is also really nice and clean, which was surprising because looking at the building on the outside, I wouldn’t have ever suspected such a cute place. There is also parking, but I heard that on weekends it can get pretty busy. So if you’re planning to get a wax with Lynn, do it on a weekday! I plan to come back again soon! (:

I have been going to see Lynn for quite awhile now and she is so skilled at waxing that you won’t want to go anywhere else! Especially if you are new to waxing she is so good! Parking easy too. Thank you Lynn of Smooth Beauty!

I’ve been seeing Lynn for a few months now and I absolutely love her! I drive all the way from kunia into town every month because she’s that amazing!
When I went in for my first appointment with her it was my first ever Brazilian, so needless to say I was super nervous. But as soon as I met her and we started talking all the nerves just slipped away. As others have already mentioned Lynn is very down to earth and easy to talk to. If it’s your first time she talks you through the whole procedure and reassures u that u can do it, and that once you get through your first one you’ll never want to stop getting it done and she’s right!
Not only is she a great person but she’s SUPER sanitary and very reasonably priced! ($ 45 for a Brazilian!)
I would absolutely recommend her to everyone and anyone!

First and most important Lynn made me feel sooooo comfortable. It was my very first time and I felt embarrassed until I got in her room. Her easy going, kind, professionalism took away all my fears or embarrassment. I loved it and will never stop doing it! So clean an smooth!!! Lynn is THE BEST. I highly recommend it… Ill never stop!

I’ve been seeing Lynn for about a year now. It took me so long to write a review, because honestly I didn’t want to share her. She is absolutely the BEST! Now that I am done being selfish, I refer all my friends. Her rates for waxing, especially for a Brazilian are by far the best.
When I first moved to the island … that was honestly top priority for me to find a new place to get waxed. Come on, in a bikini almost every day… ALL the ladies should be coming here. If not for yourself, please do it for everyone else at the beach.
Lynn made me feel so comfortable and she’s very personable, I didn’t miss my old aesthetician at all.
She is very clean! No double dipping of the waxing sticks going on here. AND YES, there are places that unfortunately do that. She is very thorough to make sure you are definitley left SMOOTH. Plus, whatever technique or wax she is using… she is definitely the LEAST painful I’ve ever felt. She communicates and talks the whole time to definitely make me feel more at ease. I find myself laughing and talking story for our 20 – 30 min together.
I LOVE Lynn… trust me, there is no one better to do what she does.

Lynn was extremely easy to make an appointment with. I called a few days ago, on a fluke, to see if she had any openings that day for a Brazilian wax. She didn’t (which I expected) but worked with my schedule and I was able to score an appointment two days later. She had a very pleasant phone presence and was sure to relay all the necessary info– detailed instructions and address to the studio, helpful tips prior to appointment.
I arrived at the Connie Gayle Beauty Salon conveniently located on The corner of Beretania and McCully. It’s across the street, HI Kai side of the power tools rental place with the huge marquee featuring clever adages. Lynn greeted me with a warm smile 10 minutes prior to my scheduled appointment (I got there 15 minutes early so I spent 5 minutes eavesdropping on standard beauty shop talk.) After filling out a health related form, Lynn got to work.
For being a first timer with Lynn, I have to reiterate the level of ease, comfort, and professionalism she demonstrated; it really made a typically awkward a situation (pants less) not too big of a deal.
Her studio is clean and she does a thorough job. There are wipes to pregame. When I got home, I didn’t see any strays that I had to target myself which is RAD. The wax smelled nice and although it was painful, it didn’t last more than 20 minutes. Lynn gave breathing instructions and next thing you know– wam, bam, thank you, ma’am. Done and clean and easy and fast. Also, BEST BEST part? Her price. 45bones is incredibly economical compared to some other places. The ONLY minor qualm that I have is that there wasn’t a hand mirror or anything so I could instantly check out her skill. It wasn’t until I got home was I able to inspect her handiwork.
Overall, I dig Lynn. She’s a sweet woman offering great service. I will definitely be returning for all my waxing needs. And next time, I’ll just grow a pair and ask her for a mirror so I can check myself out before leaving. Mahalo Lynn!

Lynn is amazing! I was super nervous going in for my first Brazilian but Lynn made it comfortable and talked me through it. I’ve been to Lynn 3 times since and every time has been comfortable and quick. She changed my life!

Lynn waxed my underarms and did an awesome job!!! She is very gentle and talks you through the whole experience… In all honesty it didnt hurt as much as I thought it would…

I LOVE Lynn. I’ve been in a few times to see her, and it’s been a great experience every time. I had to cancel an appointment on her once because it interfered with my work schedule, and as she was unfortunately booked that week I wound up going elsewhere. Big mistake. Same price, not nearly as great service, and the job wasn’t as well done. Definitely staying with Lynn from now on!
She is very friendly and makes the whole experience more relaxing (which, if you’re anything like me, is a MUST for waxing). She is quick working and uses a great wax, making it much less painful.
I actually have an appointment scheduled again tomorrow. I was panicked because my summer class started and interferes with my appointment, which I didn’t realize when I scheduled at the time of my last appointment. I called her on Friday and left a message, explaining that I couldn’t make it at that time but if she had any other times available, I still wanted to come see her. She called me back this morning and told me that she had a time open tomorrow afternoon, which works perfectly! She tries very hard to fit everyone in, and she was very apologetic the one time she couldn’t get me in (even though I was the one who had had to cancel, completely my own fault!)
She’s my absolute favorite aesthetician! I highly recommend her, especially if you’re new to waxing. But even old pros would appreciate her professionalism and relaxing demeanor.

4.3.13.
So…this review is a little premature but I couldn’t wait because Lynn is a doll! I haven’t even met this lovely lady, but I HAVE to give pre-​visit props to her already dazzling customer service.
I called her today at around 5:00 pm, inquiring about making an appointment for this week (e.g. Thursday or Friday); YES, late much? Her voicemail message is very profesh – I left a message noting my name, inquiring if she had openings, what I wanted done and left my contact info. Now, she closes at 6 pm but being the awesome person she is she called me at 5:45 pm and left a message to call her back. I called about 5 minutes later… maybe she could tell how desperate I was but even though she was booked, and I didn’t have a LivingSocial deal, she MADE TIME FOR ME to come in saying she would come in early to provide me with what I need. LYNN, YOU ARE A LIFESAVER. I can’t even express how amazed I am by her accommodating personality and with all the rave reviews already, I am even more in awe.
Again, I haven’t even met this lady yet, but I am already impressed.
Unilocal 365 Challenge: #092/​365
UPDATE:
Lynn is actually pretty amazing. I showed up half an hour earlier and she took me in 15 min later since she was there early too! Be prepared to be there for 30 minutes… and I have to admit this time was a little bit more painful than I remember. BUT, Lynn came to the rescue with Brazillian la maz, inhale, rip-​exhale. What makes her even more amazing is that she only charges $ 45 like Bare Minimum (BM), but cash only and try to bring exact change+tip. Also, Lynn is super friendly and personable which eased the process. Her space is a little small, but like her wall says she’s so good at making you feel sexy, silky & smooth when you leave! I already booked my next appointment, you should too!
BTW. Shoutout to Unilocaler Tracy K. for your rave review – I’m so glad that your fav esthetician is now also one of my favs!

I think I just found my favorite aesthetician! I am thrilled to share my experience with the Unilocal community, particularly the ladies. I had stumbled onto this place from a groupon offered a couple months ago. The price was right. $ 27 for a full Brazilian wax. Dirt cheap. But we ladies don’t just want affordable. We want a place that’s hygienic, friendly, convenient, and pretty. Oh and did I mention as painless as possible? Well look no further. Lynn is the way to go!
Smooth Beauty Studio is located in the Connie Gayle Beauty Centre right on the corner of Beretania and McCully opposite the Shell gas station. Easy to find, lots of parking, and sitting in a convenient part of town. If one judged the interior by the way the outside looked, you’d see women fleeing the scene. The blacked out tint and dated wooden building reminds me of an adult toy store. But once you muster up the courage to walk in, everything changes.
The Beauty Centre is bright and clean, buzzing with conversation between the hairstylists and customers. White lights enhance the marble floors. Soft blue tones dance with silver metallics that make the place feel bigger than it really is. As I stopped at the reception desk, Lynn had already pegged me as her next client and we hit it off right then and there! She led me into her studio space that is shared amongst the other aestheticians, all working independently from each other. Lynn was professional and comforting, asking the basic questions like «Have you waxed before?» and «When was your last waxing?» She even mentioned that it was important to keep hydrated the couple days before to help the hair removal process.
The wax she used was the most gentle I’ve ever experienced. Brazilians are painful no matter what, but it makes a HUGE difference when the wax grabs the hair properly and the professional removes it cleanly. She told me to inhale, then ripped at the exhale. What a great tip!
Throughout the waxing, she spoke to me about her family of five children who have all grown up, her nice husband Pat, and how she used to run her business from home until it got a bit too busy. I can see why! She’s professional, comforting, easy to talk to, and very affordable.
Because I was SO impressed with the whole experience, I booked my recheck then and there in 4 weeks. Five stars all the way for Smooth Beauty Studio! THANK YOU LYNN!!!

So after learning the convenience of waxing, I have some major points that an esthetician must hit in order for me to have a really good review.
1. Wipes — I know this is a weird point, but I REALLY enjoy being able to freshen up before the appointment. Otherwise, I just feel embarrassed during my session. Check for Lynn!
2. Cleanliness of wax — I really hate having to go home and do finishing work on my own. Isn’t that the point of the Brazilian? I only had to pluck a handful of hairs, but still, I had to do it.
3. Price — Who doesn’t want a great deal? $ 45 and check for Lynn!
4. Convenience — I can usually plan or wait to get an appointment in if a place is really busy, but how about the times where you just need to rush in? Lynn was super helpful in trying to squeeze me in right before my hot date. Check!
So overall, a great place to get a Brazilian done and will be in my regular places to rotate through.

There are not enough stars on here for me to place! Please believe me when I tell you, Lynn from Smooth Beauty Studio is a tried and true professional! I would never trust my personal beauty needs to anyone else on the island!
She is knowledgeable and is probably the cleanest person to work with. Lynn explains everything she is preparing to do, educates you with any and all procedures, and makes you feel comfortable in your surroundings.
Personally, she is customer service all the way with the true Aloha spirit of old, meaning that, once you meet Lynn, you will feel as if you’ve known her your whole life.
I would not go any place else for my beauty needs.
Thanks Lynn for doing such a marvelous job!
