Jen is fabulous!! I have been going to Skin Care at Pleasure Point regularly for facial waxing for over twelve years and am always delighted with my experience. Highly recommended!

Although I previously had a bad experience with this establishment, they have changed ownership and the new owner Jen seems to be a wonderful person. She reached out to apologize for my experience, something the previous owner & employees never did, and offered me a free wax. Unfortunantly, I am not in the area otherwise I would take her up on her offer.
I think it speaks a lot of an owner and business to reach out to customers from 3+ years ago to make something they were not responsible for right. Based off the very recent reviews, it seems like Jen is running a great establishment. Best of luck!Helpful 3Thanks 0Love this 3Oh no 0Business owner information

Hi Cindy my name is Jen and I'm the new owner of Skin Care Pleasure Point. I'm so sorry you had a bad experience with the previous owner. I'd love to ensure that you have a better experience here by offering you a complimentary wax service with me. Please call at your convenience to schedule.
Thank you :)

831-475-1001May 9, 2016Previous reviewBought a groupon for this location after reading a lot of great reviews--at that point I didn't see people mentioning that they had double dipped. The inside was really clean and they share a bathroom with the salon next door. I personally brought my own baby wipes and cleaned myself before the wax, the woman did not apply any oils, baby powder, etc. before applying the wax. She told me that she would do 1 test strip to make sure I could handle the pain and before she even pulled out that one strip she had applied wax to two additional areas--I thought that was really funny.
The wax went ok, she missed some areas which I noticed when I got home. She did double dip but I honestly didn't pay attention until afterwards when I noticed the trash can was empty except for maybe 3 sticks. Gross.
When I was paying at the end, the woman offered to keep the same price for my next visit (the groupon price ~29 bucks). - Peggy C.Oceanside, CA112174103Feb 27, 2018
I believe the adage that eyebrows make or break your face (and a good Brazilian can make or break your furniture... hehehe). I digress, I have found the ultimate eyebrow artist in Jen at Skin Care Pleasure Point. Even when I'm working in L.A. I make sure to make my appointments for all my follicle needs when I'm in Santa Cruz.
Not only is Jen a consummate, perfectionist professional at what she does, she's also a really fantastic woman who makes you feel comfortable and takes the time to understand what it is you really want. My brows are always on point and there's no way in the world I'd go anywhere else for my "other" waxing needs. Ladies, don't walk around with whack eyebrows. Get your brows handled by the best!Helpful 1Thanks 0Love this 1Oh no 0 - Karen M.Santa Cruz, CA0105Oct 13, 2018
My skin feels so good!! Jennifer just gave me the most relaxing facial! The products that she uses are really nourishing for my dry skin. I am outside a lot and it feels like my skin just got a huge drink of water! She also did a fabulous job on my brows too!
I am so glad you are in my neighborhood!Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Liz S.Santa Cruz, CA20112May 19, 2021Updated review
I've been going to Jen for years and can't say enough good things about her! When it comes to waxing she's thorough, yet gentle! Her place is very clean, safe and comfortable. In addition to being a true professional, she's also a lovely person. I highly recommend Jen/Skin Care Pleasure Point to anyone looking for waxing or facials.

I've gotten a Brazilian from both Patty and Jen and they both do a fantastic job. They are both thorough, friendly and make you feel completely comfortable throughout the whole process. They have great customer service and are always willing to squeeze me in on short notice whenever possible. These ladies are the best!

I love this place! Been coming here for years now. I've had both Patty and Jen and they both rock. I get full Brazilian and they offer great, natural products- friendly service, flexible appointments, and tons of great beauty advice. I was struggling with break outs a little after at first and they helped me get a good routine in place to keep that from happening, they help schedule me out for vacations and things. I love this place! I highly recommend them to anyone who needs a waxing specialist.

I moved to Berkeley and I still come to Patty and the ladies here for all my waxing needs because nobody else compares! I get beautiful results, no bruising or in-grown hairs and an exceptional experience in every possible way. I have sensitive skin and can't shave without getting "chicken skin" scars, so I converted to waxing and never looked back. I met Patty years ago when I lived in Aptos and with her help my skin has been reborn!
This is a friendly, local place and you will feel welcome and comfortable. Any time I have gotten waxed elsewhere (while traveling) I regret the experience and realize how much better Skin Care Pleasure Point is than the rest.
Quality waxes and equipment, expedient scheduling and professional expertise. Take care of your skin! Patty is the best!Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0Jul 9, 2013Previous reviewI am so happy to follow Patty to her new home in Capitola. I have been a waxing client at her previous location for over 3 years, and she is by far the most pleasant and caring "waxer" around town!
The new space is so cheerful and bright, close to everything and had a free parking spot right out front. She is always finished faster than I expected and I have very sensitive skin yet have never been bruised, burned or had "fuzzy spots" missed like other speedy impersonal salons I have tried. I go for full body more or less and Patty has years of expertise, it really shows as I can ask for any shape or stripe, and get exactly the precise results I had visualized.
Patty is a true ARTISTE! She has also made me feel like a welcome guest and friend over the years and I know she has found a calling and will always continue to refer my friends directly to her.
Capitola residents, consider yourselves lucky! She is a diamond in the rough.. Also worth my drive from Watsonville any time as I moved recently but would never consider the risk of trying someone new, they couldn't compare so why would I? - C A.San Mateo, CA36477Apr 2, 2016
After going to this establishment, I'm very much looking forward to my next visit!
I had never gotten waxed in my "nether region", but I wanted to get a full Brazilian. I called and spoke to Patty, asking for an appointment that day. I cringed, waiting to hear her say they were busy (as most skin/hair facilities do). She set my appointment that afternoon! I was so happy.
Upon arriving there, Jen greeted me and showed me into a private room. I was happy to see there was a sheet for me to lie on so I wasn't bare butt on a surface multiple people have used. She was also very quick to start!
Again, this was my first Brazilian wax and I was a little nervous, having only waxed my brows and forearms prior. However, I was able to make casual and funny conversation with Jen as she was doing the wax! She was very informative about aftercare in the days/weeks following my wax. The price was more than reasonable and I'm definitely going to come back for my next wax! Overall great shop and customer service.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Willow B.Santa Cruz, CA458164Jun 11, 2018

Fantastic experience! Got a gift certificate for this place- and had never had a facial before! Let me just say, it was one of the best things ever! Patty was amazing, and really made me feel comfortable and great! Fun to talk to and I just felt so relaxed and enjoyed the whole thing from start to finish! Definitely will be back!
