So I must say this isn't the place for you if you are shy and need to get babied-This place is down to the point waxing-

Since I moved downtown I needed to find a place closer, did not want to go back to the Belmont area where I went to The Waxing Room, wanted to stay downtown-Eva is just across the river from me and she had great reviews so I wanted to try her-

You go in and instantly strip from waist down, she starts right away and you will be done in no time flat-She was nice, professional and you could tell she's had years of experience-
You have choices from shapes/designs to getting it all taken off, which I opted for-On a pain scale from 1-10 I would say it was a 1, she's fast so there is no pain-

I will continue to go back to her for sure, she knows what she is doing and made me feel comfortable-

Eva was AMAZING.  She provides the fastest, least painful, best looking Brazilian wax I've ever had!  When she told me I could come in on my lunch break because she could do it in under 15 minute, I was a bit skeptical, but I was in and out of the salon in 15 minutes.  
Also, I have very sensitive skin and have had bad reactions to Brazilian waxes before (and that's not a place you want a bad reaction), but I had absolutely no irritation with the products Eva uses.

I can't believe I am awarding 5 stars for a process involving the application of hot wax to my nether regions.  Eva is just that good.  Her Brazilian wax is by far the least traumatizing in town.

Eva is as amazing and capable, as she is beautiful.  

I saw Miss Eva for the first time today, which was also my first Brazilian.  Eva was great!  I immediately felt very comfortable with her, as if we have been acquainted for years.  

I recently had my eyebrows waxed by someone less capable and walked away with an allergic reaction that quickly turned into a scar over my right eyebrow, which has yet to fade three months later.   I assumed the wax was too hot, causing a reaction and later scarring.   Eva said no, the wax was applied twice in the same area, making my skin extremely sensitive.  She was absolutely right.

I will be going back to see the beautiful Miss Eva--you can bet on that.

Decided to get a brazilian and thought I'd find the best spot for one on yelp. The reviews were no lie - Eva is amazing!!! This was my first brazilian and I warned her that my tolerance for pain was super-low. I was screaming non-stop b/c I'm a super-baby but she was great and talked me through the whole thing - and she's quick and very reasonably priced! I'll be back for sure:)

Best wax job ever! Much more thorough and reasonably-priced than other places I've been in the past.  The location is a bit hard to find, but Eva is super friendly and doesn't make you feel awkward.  I'm not going anywhere else in Chicago!

Eva is TOTALLY awesome!  I have been seeing Eva regularly for the last six years and I have never been disappointed.  She does a quick and clean brazilian wax at such a reasonable price.  She's even waxed me through both of my pregnancies (as close as a week before delivery) and as always made me feel completly comforable.  Everyone I recommend to her loves her.  She books bikini wax in 15 minute slots and you can't be late otherwise you'll have to re-book as she is usually booked solid.

The Best Brazilian Wax in Town!  Eva Trella is the queen of waxing, she is really amazing.  She is super fast, professional and really funny.  She has done tons of playboy centerfolds and is a really down to earth person, no need to be embrassed here...she has probably seen everything!  Plus her prices are the best, she is really reasonable and not into the BS that most places are really charging you for.  Full body wax for men and women & facials are avail.
