This service includes pre-treatment oil application to soften hair follicles, ensuring minimal discomfort. Clients benefit from reduced regrowth frequency through our natural honey-based wax formula.

This personalized facial combines deep pore cleansing, targeted extractions, and therapeutic masks. Treatments begin with scalp and hand massage to promote relaxation, followed by steam therapy and customized serums. Ideal for addressing specific skin concerns like acne, aging, or sensitivity through tailored ingredient combinations.
Relaxation Massage
A 60-minute citrus oil massage targets muscle tension using circular kneading techniques. Therapists adjust pressure intensity to individual preferences, focusing on areas of tightness while promoting overall circulation. Clients report reduced stress levels and improved sleep quality after sessions.

This 60-minute back treatment addresses bacne through salicylic acid exfoliation and sulfur mask application. The process includes blackhead extraction and anti-inflammatory serum application. Recommended as part of a series for clients seeking long-term acne resolution and improved skin texture.

Report
I was a customer of Sisters for 15 years. After a 10 year hiatus, I came back last week. I could not be happier about what I came back to. The staff was the same (that says so much for a business when they can keep good people) and the services were just as top notch as I remember. I got waxed and have booked my facial appointment. I look forward to that service as their products and experience are high quality. Thank you for being a service and location someone can count on.
