Based on reviews at various sites I chose Sejal at Zonolite Hair Studio in Atlanta near Emory & CDC for my first-ever Brazilian wax. I was so pleased with the result, the process, and how she prepared me for what would be going on and what to expect afterward. She immediately realized that I would probably have very sensitive skin and disclosed that some people are alergic to certain waxing products (who's not alergic to something?). Due to my skin sensitivity, she said she would get all the hair she could on the first try, but that if there was hair left, rather than repeat and risk hurting me, she would follow up next week to remove it. This is her standard procedure, but she explained she might stop a little sooner with me. There are 2 small areas she'll go over next week at no additional charge, but she got nearly everything. As I'd read, Sejal was fast, but she reminded me a couple of times to tell her if I needed a break. I didnt need one beyond the time it takes her to apply the next bit of wax. She was very good. She told me she chats to keep people's minds off pain, and worse, the anticipation of it. For me, if I'm going through something painful, it's better if I focus on breathing and relaxing instead of talking, and Sejal was respectful of my request. Regarding pain, it was no worse than I expected. I felt fine when I left and still do. No alergic reaction to the wax, but I appreciated the warning. I'll be going back as a devoted follower.
