A quiet room on Grand Ave, five years in
Care is my mission.
As a kid I remember my mom taking care of her skin. She would do home masks. We would be cleaning the house and she would be walking around with an oatmeal and honey mask that was one of many different ones she would do.
I remember mentioning to my mom that I wanted to go to school to be an esthetician, at this time I had 3 teens and a toddler, my husband and I had just opened TRB. I said to my mom I want to become an esthetician but I think now is not the right time.

What we hold to
One client at a time
No double-booking, no treatment room turnover in the hallway. The studio is quiet because there's only ever one appointment running.
Samples before purchases
You try anything we recommend at home first. Retail gets offered once and never pushed on the table.
Free consultations
Thirty minutes, no charge, no obligation to book. We'd rather send you to the right treatment than the expensive one.
Everything is customized
The same facial looks different on two people. Products, pressure, and timing get adjusted every single visit.
Who you'll be with
Trained after raising four kids and opening TRB with her husband. Known for extractions people actually don't mind and a face massage clients book around.

Lines we trust on your skin
We stock a short list rather than a wall of product. Everything we use in treatment is available in the studio, and you'll get samples before you buy any of it.

“Karen made me rethink how I treat my skin. I didn't really care about my skin or how to take care of it, and even less about getting a facial before I met Karen. She customizes treatment to fit YOUR facial needs and gives samples for you to try out first too.”
“Karen has helped me understand my skin and has educated me into choosing the right products with noticeable results. The gentle facials and hydration therapy she offers has transformed my skin, and not to mention the aromatherapy and cozy bed.”
