I had my first session at 100 Percent Permanent Hair Removal in Chicago, IL today, and it was an amazing experience. Let me explain.This session was in preparation for gender confirmation surgery. This means I had to spend hours with a total stranger applying an electrified needle and tweezers to my genitalia. If the thought of that doesn’t make you cringe with apprehension, then you probably don’t want to walk through the TVA’s robot detector.Anyway, I was nervous, to say the least. I didn’t need to be. Valeria, the electrologist, and her staff were amazing. Before we even began, it was clear to me that they get it. It wasn’t just that no one misgendered me, it was that they clearly understood the needs and apprehensions of transgender individuals. Within minutes, we were talking freely and laughing, and I felt truly welcome.As for the treatment itself, it was better than I’d expected. I’m not going to lie: I’m a total wimp. My pain tolerance left on the SS Testosterone, and I don’t expect it back. They address this with lidocaine injections, which is why I drove five hours to go to this particular practice. Was it totally painless? No. But I can’t even fathom how anyone could do this without anesthetic.They were kind and understanding. They communicated easily and made adjustments as we went along—the perfect blend of personable and professional. I just wish everyone had the same attitude. So yeah, if you need any kind of hair removal, I cannot recommend 100 Percent Permanent Hair Removal highly enough.
Valeria and Anastasia are great! Treatment went amazing Valeria went above and beyond to get rid of as much hair as she could in ONE day and she did just that ! And she makes sure you’re doing you’re pre and post treatment because it will help with healing. I will recommend her to anyone!! ☺️
Valeria is very professional and friendly! From the first session, I’m very happy with the results. I really recommend her services and I’ll continue my treatment with Valeria!
Consultation with Valeria was amazing. She took the time to teach about electrolysis, expectations, and tips. I would definitely recommend seeing her and booking an appointment. Excited to find a professional who I can trust.
I had the most wonderful consultation with Valeria. She was very detailed in her explanation of electrolysis. I have had electrolysis before, however, I felt the place lacked client competency. Valeria provided information on pre-treatment, aftercare, etc. It was refreshing to find someone who looks at you as a person and not as a paycheck!
Valeria is amazing! Since the initial consultation I felt at ease and comfortable enough to let her know my situation and why I needed electrolysis.She was open, supportive and lovely. She takes the time to listen and help.She does not BS you or try to convince you why you have to pick her, just by her introducing herself and her work you will know she’s the one!My experience was amazing, although painful(not her fault) my body does not take well to anesthesia(left side) she did her best to make me feel comfortable and would go at my pace and stop when need be. My right side was a walk in the park felt nothing but my left was always painful no matter how much we tried and she tried a lot which showed me she cared more about me then getting it done.Also she ONLY charges what she works if by any chance a break is taken or she needs to stop she will only charge what she works which is incredible because most places will charge you the whole hour rather then what they actually work wether is because you’re in pain or body needs to adjust.Although electrolysis is not cheap it is worth it when you find someone as caring as her.I will always recommend her and be back.Renata which is the Anesthesia injector is also so caring and nice! She ensures you have the right dosage and stay within the allowed dosage guidelines, and is always willing to help.I did electrolysis on my genital area.
I really have had a pleasant experience here. Valeria is really sweet and personable and is very knowledgeable about electrolysis. I’ve had electrolysis before but wasn’t seeing much progress. I also didn’t understand the hair growth process and how often to come. At my consultation Valeria broke everything down like hair growth cycles and of course how electrolysis works. Also the technology she uses is up to date and efficient, she uses is a quick zap (I was used to the needle being inserted and then having to wait a few seconds before you’re zapped). I’ve had about 5 sessions and already my hair is finer and less. She even is concerned about your aftermath; how your skin reacts to the electrolysis. And everything she recommends I follow.I shared with Valeria that I feel more confident (as the hair that’s being treated is on my face) and more feminine since I’ve been coming to her. I enjoy going to my treatments because I know I’m 1 more session closer to less hair! Her space is extremely clean and I love the location. I definitely recommend her!
I have been seeing Valeria since September, and I’m already seeing results. For me seeing is believing and I’m so thankful I found her to take me through this journey. Anyone who suffers from Hirsutism knows how painfully embarrassing it is, and I’m grateful I found her when I did. Trust what she says, she knows what she is doing.💜
When I was 14 yo I was diagnosed with PCOS and ever since really severe hormonal hair was grown literally everywhere in my face and body.I have tried so many types of lasers and electrolysis technicians at so many centers, but my hormonal hair kept growing, even at places where I didn’t have hair before. The problem was getting worse.After searching and trying desperately so many different methods for so many years I found Valeria. I have never been this happy. She has an extremely precise technique that gets right to the follicle, and after a few sessions I noticed the improvement.Genuinely, Valeria is the best! It is worth every penny. I am glad I found you! Thank you😍
Valeria operates her studio (inside Salon Lofts) as a sole proprietor. This is a good thing, as appointments are punctual and tailored to your preferences. An initial consultation is required before your first session to explain the nuances of electrolysis. This is also a method to gauge (and manage) the expectations you will have upon completing your hair removal journey.Otherwise, Valeria provides a medical grade electrolysis service. If you opt for pure topical pain management, then you are responsible for applying before the appointment, but injected and/or sedated pain management is possible w/ additional cost.Recommended.
My experience going to this place is very pleasant. I feel very comfortable and well taken cared of every appointment i had. Environment is very conducive and relaxing. Very professional staff. Highly recommended and its worth a try not to mention the convenience of free validated parking. Valerie thank you for being patient with me. Cant wait to be back for my next appointment.
Ive been coming to Electrolysis 100% Permanent Hair Removal for awhile now and I gotta say Im pretty happy with results.Ive never had a lot of hair but in the areas I did..it was man like.(Damn genetics),I use to just bleach it, but over time it became too much of a hassle.I was recommended by a friend to Electrolysis 100% Permanent Hair Removal and took her word for it. Gotta say Im happy I did!Valeria was super welcoming and has been since our first session. Shes accommodating,fast, and HONEST. My first visit she sent me home with a care card (after care instructions) and texted me the next day to see how I was doing.It made me feel like she cares and genuinely wanted to help me. I dont think theres anything I would change about experience with Electrolysis 100% Permanent Hair Removal.
Valeria provides a very professional service. Not only is she highly skilled about the hair removal process itself, but she is very detail-oriented when it comes to the attention she brings to her customers. In the past few months that I have been a customer, I have witnessed the care she puts into her office to make sure customers feel welcomed. From always ensuring customers walk into a spotless waiting area and clean amenities, to her choice of music to play during the electrolysis session, which helps us patients be less nervous about the procedure. Her prices are affordable and represent a good investment in yourself and your self-esteem. On top of everything, Valeria a very sweet lady who always welcomes patients with a smile. I highly recommend her!
Valeria is the best! I have been receiving electrolysis treatment for years, and never really saw progress until I started with Valeria. It makes such a difference to have a professional who is not only good at her job, but who finds passion in it and strives to do the best for every one of her clients. Valeria is warm and easy to confide in and build a relationship with. I would not trust my care to anyone else!
Valeria is great! She is very easy to talk to and cares about what you want out of each appointment. No matter the length of your appointment she is always detailed and works to get as much done out of each appointment. She has experience with all different skin tones and hair textures. I myself am and have very thick course hair. I have tried everything and nothing was working how I wanted. It is a gradual process but stick with it and you see improvement. Going to Valeria for electrolysis has been the best decision I have made!
Fantastic! My confidence had been affected for many years due to scarring on my face that I received from my hockey career. Pucks and sticks to the face had altered my natural complexion, leaving me with scars. I found this place, not only a great location but incredible service. Larisa performed fibroblast service on me, and after a few treatments scarring had been radically reduced.
Amazing experience and great results. Valeria is a very knowledgeable professional who knows what she is doing. 10/10 recommended!
Valeria is so knowledgeable! She gives you all the information before you start, then she does everything she can to get the most out of whatever time youre scheduled for. You can tell that she knows what shes doing. Her facility is spick and span! Everywhere is sanitary, and the environment is calming. I definitely recommend her!
Valeria is really amazing. She truly cares about her clients and has a relaxing environment. I have had numerous treatments on different areas with really great results. I highly recommend her for electrolysis treatments.
Amazing Job Done! Highly recommended! Stuff so friendly and positive. I am so happy with the results. You should definitely try it! Best method of hair removal.
I came across electrolysis and found Valeria, I didnt know anything about electrolysis. I had my consultation with her and she educated me on the process thoroughly and told me all the expectations throughout the journey. She is very professional and friendly.Tips:1. Use a good moisturizer and a good oil while going to sleep and make sure your skin is hydrated. This makes the electrolysis process easier.2. Make your appointments every 3-4 weeks so that the treatment is effective3. You have to be patient as it may take a couple sessions to start seeing the results.I have had almost 6 sessions now and do see the results clearly, This is 100% more effective then Laser hair removal process(my experience resulted in more hair) so do not waste you money on ineffective methods.
I had my first appointment with Valeria about a year ago, and she is amazing. I have been suffering from hormone imbalance due to bad side effect from birth control and started growing unwanted hair on my face. I did research and decided that electrolysis was the right choice for me.I met with Valeria, spoke to her about my issue. She answered all my questions and was very supportive of what I was going through. Valeria made me feel so comfortable. We did my first session and she was extremely careful and gentle, I barely felt anything. Needless to say but she is amazing at what she does!I highly recommend Electrolysis 100% Permanent Hair Removal and I am extremely excited to continue my own journey with them.
Valeria is amazing! If you are looking for permanent hair removal, Valeria will take care of you! I drive over two hours to see her regularly and wouldnt have it any other way.Valeria has work ethic like Ive never seen. I usually have two hour appointments and she gets more done in those two hours then any other electrologist Ive ever seen. If you are thinking about getting electrology, go to Valeria. She is hands down the best!
Im very happy with the results and the treatment I had. Friendly staff, clean environment and great prices. Valeria is very kind and knowledgeable and will always take her time to explain you the process and hear your concerns. Thanks again!
Found her thru my friends, everyone was saying that she is best on her job, so I decided to try and never regret it, she knows her job very good. Had a good experience from the first session. She knows how to interrupt with the customers and always gives the right information, plus you can see the results even after the first session. Highly recommended.
Electrolysis has been the only thing that has worked for me to finally get rid of my unwanted facial, upper-lip, chin, eyebrow, underarm, nipple, stomach and even toes. Yes, I have done all those areas and I am loving it!! Once I got results from the first area (chin) and saw the amazing results, I just kept moving on to other areas. For years I was waxing with no real relief of the hair disappearing for good until I met Valeria and tried Electrolysis. I know her for more then 3 years. She was working at the old location . Valeria is very knowledgeable and does a terrific job in explaining the electrolysis process and what to expect during the sessions. She is very sensitive to everyones needs. Her flexible hours are great and I always leave there feeling refreshed. The location is amazing, easy public transportation, big parking lot around the building .I like this location more than the old one . I cant believe it took me so long to start Electrolysis... I would been rid of all my unwanted hair years ago!! Next on my list is bikini area. Highly recommend this place Eectrolysis 100% Permanent Hair Removal .
Valeria is the only person I trust to take care of all of my unwanted hair! After doing lasers and waxing, Ive by far seen the most results from her. Valeria is so warm and sympathetic, shell make you feel completely comfortable with any area you choose to work on.
So glad to have found Valeria, she is awesome! Knowing that this can be a painful process, she takes extra care with her clients. Highly recommend her if you are looking for permanent hair removal.
Great service. Professional staff. Clean enviroment. Trully pleased with results and quality of work. Greatly recommend!
Valeria is extremely knowledgeable, professional and really cares about the quality of her work. I have been very satisfied with the results Ive seen working with her and highly recommend her!
Valeria is an excellent medical professional, an artist, and a wonderful person. She immediately put me at ease when I spoke with her over the phone. I wanted to have some hair removed from my bikini area, which made me a little nervous. Many electrologists dont work on this area, but Valeria does, and she is extremely professional about it. Wasnt awkward at all.She is exactly the type of person you would want to perform electrolysis/thermolysis on you: clear, careful, sensitive, precise. She uses a state-of-the-art Apilus XCell Pur and she knows how to use it. She also has a variety of probes/needles. She tried every setting and every probe that she had in order to find which would be the most effective at removing my hair, while also keeping any discomfort to a minimum.Her studio is very clean and organized. Shes always on time, but if shes ever running a few minutes longer with a client, shell send you a text to let you know, Sorry Anastasia, Im few minutes behind, can you come 10 -15 minutes later please which I really appreciate. Ten stars for communication!I was planning on trying at least 3 different electrologists in the Chicago area before deciding on who to go with long-term. But I lucked out on my first electrologist with Valeria.Ive already begun recommending her to friends.Also, there has always been plenty of free street parking around the block of her studio.
Im so thankful for Valeria, every treatment is going smoothly, she is so kind and very knowledgeable. She gets the job done right. Im so happy I made the decision to go.
Excellent service, so far happily satisfied and comfortable, on my way of no more cuts, irritations, bumps and/or the shaving ordeal itself. Permanent brazilian style its my goal and cant wait until Im done! And just to let you know this place is LGBTQ friendly... so this is the place!
Valeria, knows exactly what you need for your desired result! She is very professional.
This is the place to go if you want to remove the undesirable hair from your body. Simply and easy, Valeria will help you to reach your desired goal.
Very satisfy ❗️❗️❗️❗️❗️Good service, fast job, and 100% results. Thank you very much
Very professional and completely hygienic.
Very friendly, clean and Great service !!!! Recommend 100%
Electrolysis 100% Permanent is the best Electrolysis in the City!
I started going here about a year ago. Valeria is awesome! She’s super nice and knowledgeable but, most importantly, she does great work. She never treats any hairs by just plucking or doing inadequate insertions. I’m always confident with her that she is permanent killing the hair. She is super fast at clearing hairs. I just wish I knew of Valeria sooner as she is truly the best out there! A solid 5 star rating well deserved.
