Had a first-time wax experience here with Erika and it was totally great. Def some pain (always is with first-timers I hear) but Erika was FANTASTIC. Really made me super comfortable. Was incredibly respectful, kind, and all that good bedside manner jazz. The place was SO clean and before I even left, Erika was already sanitizing the room for the next client. Went back a second time 6 weeks later and Erika was just as nice, just as efficient, and just as clean.I will be a return customer.

I came from out-of-state to visit family and leave from RDU for a vacation. I needed to get a wax. The local shops in my area were either booked or didn’t pick-up their phone. Sweet Pea answered and booked me immediately. My wax was awesome. The shop was pretty and clean!

If this is your first time getting a Brazilian, or even if youre experienced, go to see Erika! Seriously the best wax Ive had. She was super fast and thorough. The pain was minimal and it was over before I knew it. Will definitely be a repeat customer!

Helene is truly the best. She is extremely personable and makes you feel comfortable. You will walk out so fresh and so clean, literally. Hairs are history. The final result is skin so smooth like butter. Oh, and Helene is quick. Sweet Pea Waxing Boutique is so worth it.

Updated review...so I tried out both ladies and both are very friendly. I vibe more with Erika though. My problem is neither of them get all the hair off. I should NOT have to shave after a Brazilian and I did both times I went here. I’m used to getting ALL hair removed, the stubborn hairs are even plucked with tweezers at times but not here...you get about 5-10 strips and that’s it. But there is always hair left behind smh. I guess I’ll have to keep looking. 😕...thanks for your response but to be clear I don’t shave in between my wax’s I had to go home after my appointment here and shave the areas y’all missed. I’ve been getting waxed well over 10 years so I am well aware of the process. In my previous experience all hair is removed not a strand left behind and that even went for my very first wax I ever had. Your customer service is great but I need more attention to detail with my wax’s is all.

I was a first time customer to Sweet Pea. Helen is amazing. Super professional. Pain free crisp, clean. Super cute office. Love that it is in a private location. Very cheap price for the quality of wax you get. I am a plus sized woman and some waxers have an issue with that. Not here. Quick in and out. I have 5 daughters and would tell each one to go here. Found my new spot.

I’m a guy and came here for a Brazilian. Helene is absolutely amazing!!!! She is easy to talk to and makes it not awkward at all. I have got this before, and it can be very awkward. Love it here. So glad I was finally able to get in (my work schedule is always changing). I will never go anywhere again! So for all the other guys who are scared of the pain or feeling strange going. You will have all those fears gone and will love the results.

I have been seeing Helen for my waxes for years and she is awesome. I recently tried a facial there as well and it was great! I had no idea it would be so relaxing, but it really was just what I needed. In addition to the facial, she did an amazing shoulder and arm massage. It was the perfect treat after a busy week! Love seeing this business expand!

Helene is amazing!!! Helene is professional, kind, personable and always takes her time. I would recommend Sweet Pea Waxing Boutique to anyone looking for a place to get a wax especially if it is your first wax. She made my first wax experience very comfortable and was very thorough about what I needed to do for aftercare. I have never had a bad experience with Helene and would never consider going anywhere else.

Review №37

Helene is incredible! I moved to the area at the end of 2017 and left a waxer I loved in DC. I found Sweet Pea Waxing Boutique through a quick Google search and the reviews are what sold me. Let me tell you: its all true. She is friendly, easy to talk to, and extremely professional. Truly the most painless bikini wax Ive ever had. Plus she offers great tips for getting the best results. I also appreciate how sanitary the whole process is. Helene is fantastic, and I highly recommend Sweet Pea Waxing!

100% Recommend this place ladies!! Helene is a BOSS. She makes things comfortable and quick every visit. I was so sad to leave Raleigh because she is literally the only person I know that can wax that quick and flawless. Skip the European Wax visit and try this place out! Support local!! :)

Initially I was a bit scared of waxing. Thinking about pain and irritation to my skin too. My daughter found Helene, and experienced her first wax. She was very pleased and referred me. Helene is wonderful! Shes experienced and has a great personality. I was not uncomfortable nor did I experience a lot of pain. She is truly the best!

Recently had my first bikini wax after being nervous to try it for years. Helene has an adorable, quiet and private studio that is centrally located and very convenient to my work place. Helene is very friendly and explains everything she is doing. In additional putting me at ease, she was very quick and efficient. Online booking is amazing and easy. I will certainly be back and anyone that is looking for a great place for waxing should try Sweet Pea boutique

Helene is an absolute goddess. I look forward to seeing her every few weeks which is something Id never thought Id say about a waxing experience. I feel comfortable and have great laughs with Helene every time I visit her. And can we just talk about her hard wax technique?! Its amazing, quick, and painless. Ive already referred almost every single person I know to make an appointment. 10/10!

Every time I come to Sweet Pea I am very happy with the results. Helene is good at what she does--thorough and efficient while also being gentle and keeping pain to a minimum! Its a hard balance to strike and she does it well. She is also a joy to chat with--making it the tine there fly by.

I HIGHLY recommend going to Helene. Shes awesome, very personable, and great with first timers. I was definitely nervous when I decided to try waxing but she made it very comfortable and patiently explained to me all the ins and outs of getting the most out of waxing. Plus her online scheduling makes appointments easy and flexible. I havent missed a month since!

Review №47

My experience with Helene has been extremely excellent. Helene is professional and does GREAT work. I am so happy to have found a place where I feel comfortable getting consistent waxes. Her prices are very affordable and the results are high quality. The method that she uses produces the LEAST amount of pain possible. I would have never thought myself to be one who would feel comfortable getting Brazilian Waxes on a consistent basis, however, Helene always makes you feel at ease and cares about her clients. Her location is very convenient, cute, and clean! I would HIGHLY recommend Helene and Sweet Pea Waxing Boutique to anyone who is looking for a new waxing home.

Review №48

So I just move from Richmond-VA been leaving there for over 21 y. I am originally from Brazil. In Richmond I have a Brazilian friend that has done my waxing in past 15 y. Move to Raleigh was great, but the fact that I did not know anyone here to refer me someone I was a little skeptical on try Sweet Pea Waxing, but because I value all the reviews and I am glad I do, I am so HAPPY on having met Helena, she was so friendly and most professional. I felt very comfort with her and she DOES A FANTASTIC JOB. I dont know how long I will be leaving in Raleigh, 10, 15 or for life..... but I can guarantee Sweet Pea Waxing and Helena will be my number one place for waxing. I highly recommend this place, everything from Helena and her place are very clean and professional.

I love Helene - she is literally the best! I have been getting Brazilians for years and I have never had a better waxing experience. Helene’s work is consistent, extremely meticulous, and as painless as a Brazilian can be (and this is coming from someone who’s 8-months pregnant and can’t take pain meds beforehand). I highly recommend!

Helene made getting a Brazilian as easy and enjoyable as it can be. This was my first wax (other than my eyebrows) and it was virtually painless! She doesnt make it awkward like you think these things can be and really keeps the conversation flowing, so that made me feel very comfortable! She is clearly an expert her trade! I will never go anywhere else for my waxing needs.

Review №54

Every time I come to Sweet Pea Waxing, I have such an amazing experience! I usually get bikini and underarm wax treatments and Helene is always very gentle and professional. I have been to one of the leading waxing salons and nothing compares to Sweet Pea! For starters, I see the same person every time (Helene) and she has years of experience, so she knows what shes doing. Waxing isnt without some pain, but Helenes technique greatly reduces pain. Clean, personalized, professional, and affordable! Convenient booking options too! Go let Helene take care of you!

This place is very comfortable. All the staff is so friendly and they do a great job. I am a male who has never experienced body waxing before and I wanted to find a place where I can feel comfortable and one day I was just driving by and just made a stop at this place and decided to get body wax for the first time. I will go back if I need to. oh and there is always a nice pink car parked out there I had to ask about it and found out that it belongs to one of the employees that works there.

I LOVE Helena. Ive been seeing her for over almost two years and will continue indefinitely. The wax and products she uses and incredible for my stubborn hair and sensitive skin.

Review №63

Love Helene! I started going to her to get my ridiculously over-waxed brows back to well-shaped, full brows! She does an amazing job. My brows are much fuller now and always shaped perfectly! She takes her time to ensure the best brows possible! Also, I just went to her for my first ever bikini wax. I was so nervous about the pain but she made me feel SO comfortable (we talked about tv shows the entire time) and it was seriously almost painless! Such a great experience and I cant wait to start getting a bikini wax along with my brows, done regularly with Helene! Thank you Helene!

Review №66

Helene is the best and her prices are great! She is very flexible with her schedule too. She works with you on getting an appointment, but she doesnt rush or miss a single hair. She is VERY thorough and she doesnt make you feel uncomfortable. plenty of parking behind the building, her prices are fantastic- way better than chain waxing places, and she uses HARD WAX! This makes all the difference for underarms and the bikini area. Hard wax lasts much longer and is less painful. I highly recommend supporting a local wax studio and giving Sweet Pea a try! You wont be disappointed :-)

Helene is the best! Why? She makes the process super simple for first timers (like I was when I came to her) and she makes you feel at ease. The wax technique she uses minimizes discomfort which is always the thing that usually discourages people from waxing. Id recommend anyone in the area to see her! Thanks, Helene!

Im from out of town so it was my first time at Sweet Pea Waxing Boutique. I wasnt able to get an appointment before I left home so I started looking up places in NC and I reading reviews. After I read all of Helenes reviews I made an appointment. I got a Brazilian and you could tell that she has been waxing for a long time. She was great and the pain was minimal!!!! Before I left I made my next appointment. Highly recommend her!!!

Review №91

I got a full Brazilian and bottom cheeks waxed. Cheek wax was great but the Brazilian wasnt. The session left me with raised bumps on each and every pore of my mon pubis area, which I had never experienced to that extreme before, and a whole patch of hair in the inner part of the outer labia. She kinda just rips the wax off without applying pressure to the skin, which I think contributed to the bumps. Shes a very nice lady though, so if your skin can take a little beating then go ahead and just make sure she gets everywhere.
