Fantastic product 3/17/2007

Finally, a product worth purchasing. "Spotless" does an excellent job at removing pesky ingrown hairs after a wax treatment. more

Best Brazilian 3/17/2007

Totally painless and quick, super-friendly service. Plus, Marilyn gave me a free bottle of her "spotless" potion and it works like a charm. Pros: sevice and ambiance more

Missing Marilyn Jaeger!!! 11/5/2006

If you live in San francisco, you must give marilyn jaeger's salon a try! I use to live in San Francisco, and would visit Marilyn Jaeger every month for my brazilian wax, like clock work! It's true what they say about not knowing what you've got till it's gone! I just moved back to Europe about 2 months ago, and have not been able to find a salon that even comes close to hers!!! I went for a brazilian wax here only to be reminded of how painful they use to be. I don't know if it is the wax she uses, or the technique she has, or the fact that she is so fast and efficient at it (probably a combination of all), but you wont find anyone to compare her to. It's just not as painful as everywhere else I've been. She makes you feel really comfotable too! First thing I do when I go back to SF for a vacation is book an appointment with her! Miss you Marilyn!!! Pros: Marilyn, fast and efficient more

Spotless Really Works 11/5/2006

A few months ago, I visited Marilyn for my monthly wax and she was kind enough to give me a bottle of her "SPOTLESS" roll-on treatment for ingrown hairs as a gift. I used it a few times after my wax to prevent ingrown hairs, but remembered Marilyn telling me that I could also use it on spots too. I couldn't believe how well it worked! My boyfriend was complaining about a pesky ingrown hair that he had, that I made him try it too. He loved it!!! Infact, he asks me for it all the time now and I even heard him recommending it to one of his friends! more

BEST INGROWN HAIR POTION IN THE WORLD!!!!! 9/24/2006

SPOTLESS ROCKS!!!!! I am a frequent waxer and have been using Tend Skin after my appointments to avoid those annoying ingrown hairs. I thought it was ok, minus the awful odor, and the drying effects it had on my skin; it sort of got the job done. I had a traumatizing waxing experience that left me with an awful clusted of ingrown hairs on my thigh. It was pretty gross. The cluster had gotten pretty red and irritated and very infected . It was the size of fava bean almost. I used SPOTLESS on it and with in 72 hours, Spotless had worked its wonders. It has great packaging, no odor, a nice glided application, and very light and smooth in texture. I use it everywhere. I use it after I shave my face in the morning, as well as at night before Bed. SPOTLESS IS THE BEST DAMNED POTION IN THE WORLD!!!!!! more

WORST PEDI EVER 9/18/2006

The pedicure that I received at Marilyn Jaeger was the worst ever. My friend and I were so excited to get our pedicures. We got to the spa and had 2 glasses of Sangria (very tasty). Then we get this pedicure from this woman who starts telling us the rights and wrongs about our feet. Not to brag, but we have pretty nice feet and have been getting them done for years and years. Then we ask for French and she tells us "NO". What? We are paying for this dog gone pedicure and we want French. She proceeds to tell us that she does not believe in French because is not classic. We sat in a desk chair with our feet in her lap. Our feet never went into a basin, bowl, tub, etc. of water. What type of S*** is that. She sprayed our feet with a water bottle, pushed back the cuticles, took off the nail polished, cut the cuticle, and then painted them. AWFUL!!!!!! She talked the whole time about her life and then wanted to pick out our own colors. I do not recommend getting a pedi there. The massage was pretty good. Not the best, but it was okay.............

Fantastic Waxing 8/20/2006

I found this place through citysearch about 6 months ago. I went in for a bikini wax, as well as an eyebrow wax. I was amazed a Marilyn's skill in both waxes. She even got me hooked on the brazilian wax. It wasn't as painful as everyone I know had said it was, and it was over in a couple minutes (I've had waxes before that last more than 30 minutes!!!). I returned a month later and was put in the hands of another waxer. Just as good. I'm pretty sure every waxer at Marilyn skincare is fabulous because I've been going every month and I've never had a problem with any of them. Keep it up ladies!!! I also like the lobby area and the ladies that work behind the reception counter. They love to strike up a conversation and they always make sure to offer you a glass of sangria or tea before your appointment. I like being able to sit by the window and unwind a bit. So much better than being stuffed in a small dimly lit waiting area, like some of the other spas i've been too. Make sure you book your waxing appointments well in advance though (at least a couple weeks, more if you want an appointment with Marilyn). Especially around holidays and in the summer. Pros: Waxing Cons: Location (something closer to the finacial district would be nice!) more

Disappointing pedicure- I won't go back 8/6/2006

I received a gift certificate for a pedicure 6 months ago, and finally was able to use it. However, the pedicure menu has completely changed- they longer offer the various luxurious peducures included on their website (no princess pedicure, latte pedicure, etc), and do not use the lovely throne-like cushioned seats. Instead, they have one pedicurist who conducts a very business-like pedicure and provides heavy scoldings for not taking care of one's feet while you sit in a chair with your feet in her lap. This was far from a relaxing pedicure, and though she did a nice job of cleaning up my feet and nails, I left feeling more stressed than when I arrived. (She also does not believe in nail polish, so don't go if you're looking to walk away with pretty red toenails) As a final note, a friend and I went together, and had sequential appointments, but were very sharply told we were not allowed to sit in the room while the other was having her nails done because it would be "too distracting". While I can understand why this may be true, again, it felt entirely inappropriate to be scolded. I will never return for a pedicure. Pros: Lovely waiting area, friendly reception staff Cons: Awful pedicure more

Mani/Pedi not so great 8/3/2006

I had a gift certificate for a manicure & pedicure, and had never been here before. But I was disappointed by the Manicure & Pedicure. There was no pampering, no soaking, not even a little foot or hand massage. The woman was nice and chatty, but the service was just average. I guess they don't even use those nice cushioned throne-like sofas in the room, where you would be able to get your feet soaked, etc. I would think about going back for another service, but not for a mani/pedi. Pros: Staff are nice, and you get wine while you wait. Cons: parking more

Warm and friendly atmosphere that doesn't lose that professional touch 7/29/2006

I've never been so pampered in my life! Massage, facial, manicure, pedicure, wax, everything! Even the waiting room was a treat! The Brazilian wax is a must, though. Quick and as pain-free as possible, Sharon not only gives you an excellent result but her warm nature takes away all awkward feelings normally accustomed to "waxes of the nether". If you're taking your car, you may have some parking problems, so I would recommend taking a bus. There's a stop not a block away from the spa. Pros: Everything! more

Editorial
  • Don’t be fooled by the softly curved walnut paneling, echo-friendly walls insulated with recycled denim or the lightly tinkling water features; at Marilyn Jaeger Skincare Studio skin is serious business. Like the airport security line (if airport security was designed by a feng-shui expert), this isn’t a good place to make jokes. This is not a spa, and you won’t find steamy dressing rooms with complimentary hair combs and waterfall shower heads. What you will find are knowledgeable aestheticians, state-of-the-art treatment rooms and seriously scientific (and totally glow-inducing) services like the popular Royal Treatment Facial. Waxing, both brow and Brazilian, is what the studio is famous for, and for a small fee Marilyn herself will remove your errant hairs. With 14 years experience and an exacting technique, she is the perfectionist's dream, believing that even one stray hair can change the look of the entire face.
