The Skin Bar Santa Cruz

Melanie is so kind and so much fun! I have had a great experience with her for waxing and facials. I have also got my preteen niece in for a facial with her and Melanie took the time to explain it all the skin care to her and taught her about it’s importance.

Melanie is an amazing esthetician! I stumbled upon her through google and have seen her ever since. She provides great service, great materials/products, clean work space and a laid back environment. I see her once a month for waxing and I couldn’t imagine myself going anywhere else. She is just an all around wonderful human who’s dam good at what she does! Go see Melanie for your next wax, you’ll thank me later ! 10/10 !

I have been getting facials for many years but just recently started seeing Melanie. She does an amazing job!! My skin is absolutely glowing. Not to mention she's a really nice and down to earth person who is easy to talk to and gives a nice massage while you have your mask on. It's super relaxing. I highly recommend Melanie!!

Melanie is a delight to go to for all your waxing and facial needs! She is one of the most thorough at getting all areas hair free and gives the best head massages. She is easy to talk to and the music is nice and relaxing. The atmosphere is peaceful and clean. She has a lifetime customer in me!

I can't stress how much I love Melanie and The Skin Bar. From the moment you walk in to the moment you leave, Melanie treats you like you are family! From waxing to facials, I have done it all with Mel. She makes you comfy and cozy while with her. Her waxing skills are above and beyond, and are literally painless. She makes you feel comfortable while ripping the hair from your nether regions :) Her facials are not only cleansing and relaxing but she also gives you tips and pointers on how to keep your skin feeling fresh and hydrated. Its like a massage for your face. She is very knowledgeable. I always leave The Skin Bar happy, rejuvenated, educated, and ready for the day. I can not stress how amazing of an Esthetician she is!! I highly recommend her!!!

If you have not visited Melanie at The Skin Bar Santa Cruz you are missing out! Her waxing skills are on point, she is always in a great mood and the place is spotless (not to mention cute)! Not only does she offer waxing services but also does facials and sells skin care products (she is thoughtful in what she procures so I always know & trust its a good product). During the beginning of SIP I bought my girlfriend and I her DIY facials for home that she delivered personally!! 5 stars all around.

Melanie at the Skin Bar is amazing! I’ve been going to her for around a year and a half. She’s a wonderful waxer! Never makes you feel uncomfortable or self conscious. And leaves no hair behind! Her facials are relaxing and you leave with fresh feeling skin. To top it off she’s friendly and down to earth.

Melanie is Amazing!
She knows her stuff and makes me feel very comfortable. Never have I had an issue with my skin, never have I had an appointment issue. She is also always so happy which is nice in our times right now! I would definitely refer Melanie to everyone ♥

Melanie is such a great woman to see for all your skin care and waxing needs! Very relaxing environment, safe and clean. She knows exactly what my skin (and brows) need. Highly recommend that you see her!

I 100% recommend a facial! I’ve only gotten a few facials in my life but Melanie at The Skin Bar has gotten me so many compliments. My sister actually asked me if I had gotten Botox last time I saw her. I have brought my daughter a few times for a “teen facial”. She feels so papered and confident after a treatment it is hard for teens to struggle with acne. If you want to rejuvenate your look with a minimal cost and enjoy an hour of relaxation treat yourself to a facial with Melanie!

Melanie is such a remarkable individual and knowledgeable practitioner. I have skin sensitivities and allergies, which she was able to accommodate effortlessly. She took the time to read all the ingredients and reviewed each product with me prior to her services. Her place is always clean and spotless. This made me feel really comfortable as a customer and as a medical professional and I would highly recommend her for any of her services.

I wish I could give Melanie more than five stars, she loves what she does, I love this place. I get facials and waxing there and it is amazing how painless she makes the waxing. Part of this is probably due to the outstanding and highest quality material she uses. I highly recommend The Skin Bar Santa Cruz.

If you are looking for an esthetician who will give the best facials, wax with perfection, and have you walking out the door feeling beautiful go to Melanie. She shares beauty secrets and makes you feel ABSOLUTELY comfortable no matter what. I’m so happy I literally have the best esthetician in Santa Cruz! Thank you Melanie!

Melanie is so sweet and professional! It was my first time waxing, and she made me feel so comfortable, very easy going and very clean! Definitely 100% recommend her!!

If you want to get the best facial in Santa Cruz you need to see Melanie at the Skin Bar. My skin absolutely glows after my facials and it is the perfect self-care.
