Parrish Blair

Parrish is amazing! As long as she is in business I will never go to anyone else. She is a perfectionist and uses a number of techniques that minimize the pain including distraction. She had me laughing through the entire session! In addition she is prompt, courteous and comes to your house. Seriously, what more could you ask for? I was very happy with my brazilian and am going to try her facial and brow service as well.

Hands down the best person to go to for your brows to be done or fixed. For years I have struggled with getting my eye brows to be full again, after years of over plucking. Everyone I have gone to told me I just have to deal with it because I plucked to much there is no way to fix it. That is until I met Parrish. In only one visit my eye brows look so much fuller and sooooo much better! She worked her magic and I have never been so happy about my eyes brows!!! And the effect it has over my whole look! Wish I had met her years ago!

Parrish’s mobile services are exquisite! Its so amazing to be pampered and pretty in the comfort of my own home!

I wish that I could give her more than 5 stars! This was the easiest Brazilian wax I have ever gotten!!! She was done so fast and the pain was minimal! Not to mention her amazing personality. Getting waxed can be kind of awkward but I was completely relaxed with Parish. She even gave me advice on how to prepare for the wax, to avoid pain and it worked!!! Absolutely amazing. Hands down the best wax I have ever gotten.

Parrish is as good as it gets! I have had many brazilian waxes as various places in the Bay Area and I am an esthetician myself. Parrish is sweet, professional and a true expert at what she does. She uses a liquid wax (the kind that is removed using cloth strips) and it was very close to painless. I had no irratation or stickiness afterwards. The price was also very reasonable. Run don’t walk to see Parrish! She is the best!

I know I’m really late posting this review but I had to give it anyway. I tour for work, which means I spend a great deal of my time on the road. As we know getting hair removed, from down there is a very personal experience so I rarely look for new people to do my Brazilian because My sister is and Esthetician and naturally I’m comfortable with her. We also own our own waxing boutique so I don’t need to go anywhere else. Anyway last year, I was on the other side of the country (I’m always in Cali) and I could not wait any longer. I logged on to Unilocal and found so many great reviews about Parrish. Parrish was AMAZING!!! She came to my hotel downtown and waxed me in about 15 minutes. The rest of the time was spent laughing and talking because she is so cool and funny. She was so comforting and reminded me so much of my sister’s calming disposition. I wish she lived in Atlanta so we could team up! Lol. If I’m ever in the area and I need to get snatched, I will definitely be calling Parrish!

Miss Parish is awesome! I’ve only ever had a Brazilian wax once because it hurts like birth pain lol. But I’m leaving for a beach vacay and I gotta tame the jungle so I sucked it up. It was quick, Parish keeps your mind off the pain (which lasts only seconds) with her bright funny personality, she’s also a perfectionist so you’re in good hands. She’s also reasonably priced. Go see her! quick tip, take advil an hour before your sesh, I also smeared on numbing cream at least 40 min prior those little things help a lot!

I went to Parrish for about 3 years. The only reason I don’t anymore is that I now live 3,000 miles away. Bah.
I tried nearly all of her services over the years and was always extremely happy with her work. She’s the perfect mix of down to earth and warm mixed with professionalism. Yep — another 5 stars for her!
I miss my Parrish!!!

I am so happy I trusted Parrish with my first full brazilian wax! She was so gentle (I loved her technique for decreasing the pain immediately) and fast! I could not believe how quickly I went from hair to COMPLETELY hairless. She was extremely thorough and made me feel so comfortable. Instead of awkward, it was fun and funny! I have another scheduled (this time for a house call– so nice that she will come to you!) because I’m so happy with the results.

I don’t usually post reviews on Unilocal but I knew I had to post about Parrish!
Parrish is so incredibly friendly, supportive and caring. She provided waxing and eyebrow tinting + waxing services for me and I could not have been more pleased. I was especially nervous about getting my eyebrows shaped because I had never done it before and I didn’t want to mess up my face shape. But Parrish guided me through the whole process and never pressured me to do anything I wasn’t comfortable with. Now, I’m in love with my new eyebrows!
Based on the quality of her work and her fun, warm personality, I would definitely recommend Parrish, particularly if you are a first time user of waxing/​eyebrow services!

I scheduled my first «braz» with Parrish last weekend. Everything was scheduled via text message. She even sent a text the day before to confirm. (Yay for customer service!) I anticipated pain, but Parrish’s technique, product and method left me virtually pain free. I think I anticipated pain more so than I actually experienced pain.
I also received a facial that was very calm and relaxing esp. after the braz. My skin looked so great the next day. I couldn’t stop looking at it. I’m still glowing.
We had a lovely session together. Her personality, patience, clarity and humor had me in stitches the whole session.
Her name should actually be Parrish «The Great» Blair.
Now I’m even thinking of getting my arm pits waxed to see what that’s like.
Oh, BTW, the braz is amaze!!! So nice to clean now. I actually like seeing my girl parts now. hahahah
Love you Parrish!!! Can’t wait to see you again.

After only one session with Parrish, I knew that I never wanted anyone else to wax me — ever. Her technique is flawless and amazing for minimizing pain, and her eye for detail leaves me confident that every stray has been taken away!
Not only is Parrish incredibly talented professionally, but she always makes me laugh. Not many people can put a smile on your face while they’re yanking hair from your body, but by golly she does!
After being impressed with my one-​on-​one sessions with Parrish, I decided to try an at-​home «Wax Party.» For this, Parrish offered to come to my home, set up her table and supplies, and perform various wax services for me and a group of my friends. It was great! So nice to be able to stay home and enjoy good company throughout the process… And it was the first time I’d ever been waxed while sipping a glass of wine. Awesome :)

I started with Parrish when she was at Simply Green. Her facials are AMAZING!!! I’m delighted she’s got her own thing going now; gives her more creative license. I recently had her do my eyebrows, and WOW! I get excited when I look in the mirror. They look fantastic!!! Parrish not only knows what she’s doing (she’s an expert in all that she does!), she takes her time and explains step by step. I get an education every time I have a session or a new service with her. I recommend her with highest compliments and awe for her talent. Plus, she’s a customer service pro! Friendly, responsive, and very warm hearted. Go see her TODAY! :-)

Being a dude, I had very little experience with waxing, and never down there. Parish came highly recommended. She put me at ease, and I discovered the experience was not nearly as painful as I had previously feared. Parish has made every appointment so fun, quick, and very non traumatic, that she is the ONLY person I trust with my personal hair removal!

I appreciated Parrish’s personality while at the spa and booked a Brazilian wax with her. She made me comfortable and not only did I look great after, the actual process was about as painless as you’re going to get. She’s great and as long as I live in the Bay Area, I will go back to her!

What can I say about Parrish that hasn’t been said in the reviews here? Not much. She is simply amazing! She’s been doing my brows for just over a year and they are perfect every time. Not only is she an expert in her field, but she is the most personable and fun gal to be around … a big plus seeing as how she’s ripping hair out of my face with wax. And since she started doing business in her home salon and on the go with her mobile services she’s become even more of a blessing! If you aren’t using Parrish you are missing out! Great company, great services, AND educational … «Eyebrows aren’t twins, they’re sisters!»

I don’t ever bother to write Unilocal reviews, but Parrish really deserves to have her praises sung. People ask me about my hair stylist all the time, but not too many people see my wax job (I know, right?) and so I don’t get to recommend Parrish nearly as often as she deserves.
I stumbled upon Parrish at Simply Green but was so impressed by her skill and the quality of her work, I would follow her anywhere. She is an absolute sweetie with a great sense of humor, which is an absolute must when your nether regions are being handled by an otherwise complete stranger. Despite her easy going personality, she is never less than 100% professional at all times.
Parrish is fantastically skilled as an aesthetician. I see her for a Brazilian wax and have a tendency to get a lot of ingrown hairs in uncomfortable places. Whatever her special technique is, it works. My skin does so much better with her than anyone else I’ve seen. I’ve also had a wax so bad that I needed to shave when I got home. You will definitely never have this experience with Parrish — all the hair is GONE.
I’ve seen Parrish at her salon in Oakland as well as at her home, but she also has a mobile service. Scheduling with her is like texting your buddy, except with a reminder the day before your appointment. Definitely a very «Bay Area» combination of local, small business meets professional, high quality service kind of experience.

She is an expert in her field, professional and fun to be around!!!
Truly one of the best services oriented businesses I have encountered.
5 start may not be enough!!!

Parrish is truly heaven sent! I always call myself a Yeti when it comes to unwanted hair, and she has always been so wonderful at creating a nice, comforting environment, while providing an almost painless service! I normally forget that I’m being waxed because of the great way she keeps me engaged in conversation, and anyone who has had Brazilian wax jobs KNOW it’s not the most comfortable thing to have done. I also had an issue with ingrown hair, and we’ve been trading ideas on soothing the skin and I’m so grateful to finally see some results! I’m so happy she’s started her own business! Yay!

TMI Review… WARNING. TMI Review. 1^st off let me say I’ve been bikini waxed by some Estheticians at some amazing spas in Palo Alto, SF, NYC, Las Vegas, you name it, I’ve tried it. I was known as a «bruiser and a bleeder» yup. Any woman with sensitive skin knows what I’m talking about. When I met Parrish, the first thing she said to me is «NO ONE should bruise or bleed from waxing» I thought, wow, you haven’t waxed me.
Well let’s just say, I’m as smooth as a baby’s ass! YUP, no bleeding or bruising, Parrish knows EXACTLY what she’s doing. She’s amazing. Makes you feel comfortable, makes you forget what you’re having done, and not only that, makes your skin look like a smooth babies ass when she’s done.
It doesn’t get any better — oh wait, did I mention she’ll come to your house at your convenience and still charge you normal fees… oh yes, TRUTH! She is God’s Gift to women with sensitive skin!
TRUST ME! You’ll thank me later!
