10/10, can't recommend highly enough!

Who would have thought it could be a positive experience to have hair ripped out of the most sensitive parts of your body?

Pamela is the BEST. She makes you feel comfortable both physically and emotionally. Let's be real--some of these services can be awkward. Not here, though--you'll be put at ease and somehow have an enjoyable experience along the way.

I've had a slew of sugaring and waxing services as well as lash/brow tinting. I can't wait to go back for my first facial and all of the other wonderful services she offers.

Claire B

When I found out the highest rated sugaring was right in my neighborhood I had to check it out, and I have been back to Pamela every few weeks since! She's a master of sugar and I felt like I was floating the last time I had a facial. Pamela is so welcoming and kind - her space is relaxing and beautiful. I highly highly recommend you check her out, you will not be disappointed!

Amber N

Just had my second Brazilian sugaring appointment with Pam & I could not be happier! If you have sensitive skin, sugaring is for you! My skin is very sensitive and I have had no issues after sugaring. Pam makes you feel so comfortable during an uncomfortable procedure and walks you through everything she is doing. There is never an awkward moment & you can talk with her about anything as she is very down to earth. Now that I am hooked on sugaring, I am looking forward to trying out her facials as well. Her space is also super cute & cozy!

Becca H

I cannot recommend Pamela at Altruistic Esthetics enough! I have been getting regular facials from her for awhile now and have to say, she is truly the best at what she does. After bouncing around to several spas throughout Chicago, I have finally found my place. Also, she is hilarious. Book your appointment today!

Anita C

I absolutely love Pamela! When I moved to the city about 6 years ago, I kept looking for someone to do my eyebrows and after going through some painful experiences, I found Pamela! I am pretty obsessed with my brows (in my experience, it's one of the most important beauty tricks to get right) and Pamela totally understands. She does them exactly right every time. No more worrying about someone messing them up and taking months to get them right again. She is really good at what she does and you can tell she loves being around people. If you are thinking about seeing her - don't hesitate. She's the best and I am so lucky to have found her!
