My last review of Mekah was May 2012. I have now been going to Mekah regularly for over two years. My review stands firm. She's friendly, professional, fast, thorough, informed, and always puts her clients needs first with an exceptional level of customer service. If you are scared to try getting your privates waxed, Mekah is the one to see. No matter your size or shape, she can take excellent care of you. I'm a very heavy girl and that has never been an issue. She has also done some great facial work and men's waxing for a friend and I've only heard good things about her from him too.

By far the best experience I have ever had while having my poor little hairs ripped from my lady spot.
The moment you walk into her shop she greets you with a warm and welcoming smile. She chats with you for a bit to help you relax into the some what torturous events us ladies and men go through.
She had me laughing and staying calm the entire time. She lets you know everything she is doing and or is about to do. Her studio you is also very clean and she makes sure to get new strips to keep you clean as well.
She is also a perfectionist so she likes to bring out the tweezers and do some extra clean up after the wax. This isn't my total favorite part, but it is necessary and she still makes it quick as possible.
Never thought I'd say it, but I can't wait until I go back!

I've been going to Mekah for over 2 years now… always professional., thorough, and really not painful at all. To top it off, she is a fun personality and the sessions fly by. Facilities are always in top notch condition. Price is more than fair, nothing is hidden, and there is no attitude.
A top notch professional.

Mekah is the best in the biz. I won't go to anyone else for my bikini wax and I have tried everywhere… pink cheeks, wax poetic, Thai spas, and the list goes on. She is bad ass and makes you laugh as you go through a number of what could be totally awkward motions. Anyhow, I love her and would totally give her a try.

Mekah finally did it! It's about time she has her own spa. Mekah is absolutely amazing... I've followed her from spa to spa and will never go to anyone else. I moved to the west side and got a new job so I haven't gone to see her in a while, but I have refused to even look for anyone closer because she is THAT worth it! I send all my friends to Mekah!
She's funny, beyond educated in the esthetician industry, professional and personable! This woman does it all and she is great at it!
GO TO MEKAH! I guarantee you will never go to anyone else again. Love her!

It isn't easy to find a waxer who does male waxing. Now I have found two real professionals. My regular waxer was not available and I searched around once again. After reading reviews I decided to give Mekah a try. I have tried several places in the past and it ranged from excruciating to mildly comfortable which I think is as good as it gets. Mekah knew her waxes, technique and was professional. It was quick, relatively painless with no burns or tears.
Guys you should try it if not for yourself, for your lady. Ladies send your man to be properly groomed, you'll both be glad.

Mekah is amazing. I've been with her for years and I will be with her for many more! Here's what you don't get with Mekah - attitude, rip offs (price-wise, and I guess, literally!) and overbooking. She doesn't make you feel like you are getting squeezed in and she really does an amazing and fast job. She is very knowledgeable about skin care and puts the safest and most amazing products on your body and skin. She is also very professional and has insane attention to detail. She will tweeze until you are perfect if that's what it takes! She's very fun too, you almost forget you are going in to get spruced up! Let's face it, who actually LIKES getting waxed? You will if you go here. Promise.

Love my brows! Mekah is definitely the best wax specialist in LA. I just had my eyebrows done by Mekah and they look awesome! I am very happy with the results. I've had my brows done at many other places including Demone Roberts in Beverly hills and the results can't compare. Mekah is so gentle, quick, and precise when it comes to getting those little tiny hairs out! Thank you so much Mekah for making my eyebrows look so clean and perfect :)

Mekah is definitely one of the best in the industry. She knows her stuff and you will always feel comfortable and satisfied with her service. She is funny and easy to talk to :) I have been going to her for over two years now and have taken 3 of my friends to her and they all love her! Definitely check her out for your skincare and waxing needs!!

I first found Mekah because of Yelp and I don't get on here near enough to post reviews. It's been a year I've been going and she's just amazing. She makes me comfortable, she works efficiently, she does an incredible job. My schedule is very busy and it's hard to find time to take for myself, but when I can, I head straight to see Mekah. My primary service is the brazilian wax but she's done more for me over time and she's done some great work for friends. Highly recommend her!

Anyone who gets that many 10 out of 10s should cause you to immediately book them. And she's worth every cent. AND let's be honest - you want someone who knows what the hell they're doing when they're ripping hairs out of your body and/or nethers.
We'll make it simple: if you like your hoo-ha, take it to Mekah. She'll treat it right.

I cant even begin to express how awesome Mekah is! I usually dont review anything unless it really impressed me and Mekah definitely deserves a review! I was suuupperr nervous about getting a brazilian for the first time. My friend convinced me to go with her, and as soon as i met Mekah the nerves eased. Shes sooo down to earth, funny, and an expert at what she does! She explains everything she does as shes doing it. Shes really funny too, which makes everything so much easier. I was nervous about showing my private parts to a stanger, but she made me feel so comfortable! What i loved the most is she loves to get the job done RIGHT! she will not leave a hair behind! MEKAH IS THE BEST! :)

Mekah is the best. She knows what she is doing. She actually makes getting waxed enjoyable. She gets every, every single hair. I swear its way less painful than some may think. Why? She is great at what she does and trust me she is not at all shy with your parts so she makes you feel comfortable. Unfortunately, I dont always have the money to get waxed but I sure do wish I did.

This review is specifically intended for all the guys out there who have been curious about manscaping but terrified to try.
I was one of you, and then I googled manscaping or manzillian one day and was lucky enough to find Mekah.
I've now been to her at least 8 times. She's the ONLY one I will ever trust to do what I once thought was unthinkable: wax..."the area."
Yes, guys, she covers everything, and she's meticulous. You will be amazed at how smooth the results are. I'm not gonna lie to you: it hurts like hell the first time. But two things really helped for me: one is that Mekah explains everything she's doing, and has a special breathing technique for you which actually helps with the pain. The second is that she really knows what she's doing. She's got all sorts of sprays and creams that eliminate any chance of infections, and reduce the possibility of ingrown hairs.
So now you're probably thinking: "I'm gonna be lying naked on a table completely exposed to this woman?"
Answer: yes. And GET OVER IT! She's like a doctor--there's nothing you have she hasn't seen a billion times.
By the way, when I first saw the results, I remember her saying to me, "You're gonna get addicted." I didn't believe her, but by God, I am. And my interest has grown beyond the "area". I've had her wax my entire body twice.
All I'm saying is this: if you're curious and want to try it once, don't think of going anywhere else. She's fun, safe, and really professional.
Enjoy!

Mekah is THE best! Though waxing is not the funnest "upkeep", she manages to make me laugh every time I'm on her table. She is prompt, professional and most importantly quick. I won't go to anyone else!

Hands down the best wax I have ever received. Thorough & fast. Mekah has an awesome personality for the not so awesome positions one has to do for a Brazilian wax session. The place is clean, super sanitary, which you would assume it had to be, but I've seen some sketchy places in the past. I will most likely be going to Mekah from here on out! I have found "the one" . . . FINALLY!

Mekah is simply amazing! Such a welcoming and friendly personality, she makes you feel at ease and comfortable right when you enter the door. I love how she explains everything she does while doing it and is able to answer any questions you may have. I've only had my underarms, eyebrows, and a Brazilian done by her but let me tell you she is the BEST! I have yet to find a good aesthetician now that i live in Minnesota =( Miss you Mekah

Friendly, efficient from making appointment to completion. The facilities are nice, private and very clean. Additionally, there are other spa services available from other professionals in the same complex. You can ask Mekah for a reference.
Find a place and professional like this and their is a temptation to keep it a secret!

I have been going to Mekah for years now, and going to anyone else isn't an option. I am so happy I have found her.
I used to think that any waxing on my face wasn't a possibility for me. I have very sensitive skin and every time after a wax I would be red, swollen, and break out - leaving me looking much worse than I did originally. At first with Mekah I didn't believe it, I thought "hmm maybe my skin is different now", but as soon as I went to someone else I realized "oh no... same skin, better esthetician." Mekah is so far superior than anyone else I've ever gone to that I even drive from Santa Monica to Burbank to see her. She makes you so comfortable, uses the best quality products, and give such a great through service. I am always satisfied and looking good.

There is nobody else I would let rip the hair off my privates. Mekah manages to make the most awkward situation hilarious. She gets the whole thing over with quickly and does great work. She's the best!

I have been a client of Mekah's for a few years now and would follow her anywhere...I am in the beauty business and she is top notch. She is not only professional and gives a great service but she is funny and above all very clean!!! I would recommend her to anyone and do to all my own clients and friends. If I had room in my own salon for skin care I would have her there in a heartbeat.

If you have ever been nervous to get a Brazilian wax, don't be!
First of all let me say that you HAVE to get waxed! Keep it clean down there ladies and gentlemen! ;) I've been to many an esthetician and Mekah is by far the best whether this is your first or hundredth wax! She not only puts you at ease, but she'll make you laugh the whole time as well, and that's as pain free as it gets. I have been to many salons from Orange County to Tucson, AZ. Finding a wonderful waxer is a task. Luckily I stumbled upon Mekah when I first moved out here and haven't missed an appointment since! :) Prices are great for excellent service. If you want to leave your wax appointment with a smile on your face see Mekah! I recommended her to my roommate and she loves her as well.

Mekah makes sure you look great! She is so knowledgeable about skin and skin care, she is continually explaining why she does certain things or why the skin reacts a certain way. Only place I'll get a Brazilian, other waxing, or skin care products. Mekah is also a ton of fun and really puts you at ease when you are at your most vulnerable.

Mekah is amazing! I have encountered nobody better to do my waxing! She's quick, highly skilled and very friendly, and she is great with both male and female clients. She knows her stuff, has affordable prices, and can provide all types of waxing services ("manscaping" included). I always look forward to seeing her, and I feel happier, better groomed and more attractive afterward. I have visited several salons for waxing services, but I strongly recommend Mekah. She is tops!

My boyfriend and I had a bonding experience when getting waxed by Mekah. It was super great cause they took us within the hour on a Sunday night which was super convenient. I live in Studio City, so it was all of 10 minutes to get there. I had never gotten waxed before (other than a traumatizing leg wax at a nail salon when I was all of 13) but I don't count that. Mekah was super nice and had a great energy. I went first for my Brazilian which had its painful spot but she was hilarious and kept me well distracted. She was super efficient and got every......and I mean every.....last bit of hair. My boyfriend went next for his full arm and she did an equally efficient job, minus a few blond hairs nearly impossible to see on his sleeves....but other than that it was great!!! DEFINITELY going back!
