Zanella's Wax bar is amazing. Not only is it less painful than other places, the people there are very calm and patient. They are very fast and careful. I can not even try to go somewhere else, I did try actually and I cried and was shaking and it took the other place twice as long to wax the same areas I had previously got done at Zanella's. Highly recommended for the beginner or long term patron of getting waxed. Also the wax is softer and has oils in it that prevent my skin (which my skin is very sensitive and is prone to bad razor burn; hence why I wax a lot.) from rashing out. This place is 6/5! Read Less

I had the best experience with Trudy, this was my first Brazilian wax and my anxiety level was not measurable!!! But Trudy was very inviting and made me feel comfortable with her just from her friendly conversation. It was not horrible like the YouTube videos that I had been watching for like 2 weeks!!! It wasn't painless but it could be tolerated at least for my first experience. I will never shave again, I have already booked my next appt. Read Less

Being single creates a challenge with keeping up with the hair on the back of the neck. Michelle finally offered me a solution with waxing. Problem solved. Thanks Michelle. I recommend you go see Michelle and you will thank her as well.Read Less

I have been going here for a few years now and the staff has always been very friendly and made me feel comfortable. I'm very particular about where I go, and this place is well worth the visit. They also offer student discounts! Read Less

Erica and her staff are basically the bomb.com I will never go to another salon again. Everyone is friendly and knowledgeable. Trudy has waxed me for several years.  I highly recommend her to everyone. I always feel comfortable and relaxed. Read Less

I have been going here for well over a year now and the only way to get thru a Brazilian is to have it done by Trudy. Not only does she take you back promptly every single visit, but she also possesses a smile and cheerful personality that will ease the fears of any Brazilian newcomer. As for those who are no stranger to the process, you will appreciate her experience, as her skill and precision are evident. I see her every six weeks now and it barely even hurts anymore. The prices are also very reasonable and competitive (I get my eyebrows and my nasal done with her, too). I totally recommend Trudy. You have to experience it to believe it. Read Less

I have been going to see Trudy at Zanella's every 4 weeks for over a year now.  She is the best!  Never did I feel embarrassed or nervous about getting waxed.  I would highly recommend Trudy for any waxing needs.  She will accommodate you on any requests and she does a phenomenal job.  I've never left there unsatisfied with my results.  Zanella's is a very professional and clean facility with a laid back feel.  Best in Baton Rouge!

I was very attached to my waxer in NYC where I lived for many years, and was skeptical that I'd find someone here in BR who was as good as her. Turned out I didn't have to worry. I've been going to Trudy for 3 years now, and not only is she a consummate professional who gets the job done quickly with minimum pain, but I so love chatting with her that I'm sorry when it's over!

The atmosphere and ambience was pleasant but overall, this wasn't a great experience. I've had a full Brazilian wax before so this wasn't my first time, although it was my first time here. With the first application of the wax, I thought it was really warm--too warm. So I told my waxer that I thought the wax was hot. She replied, "I think you're just too sensitive," as she applied more hot wax. I jumped with every application of the wax, and actually didn't even let her finish. She still charged me the full amount though. As I drove home, I was literally throbbing down there and had to stop at the pharmacy and get some aloe vera gel to stop the pain. Not sure I'll go back.

I've been coming here to get services for over a year now. Their services are always consistent. My preferred person is Trudy who is absolutely amazing! She is always timely and efficient. She talks through the session which keeps my mind off of the services being performed. The space is clean and comfortable. They are quite professional, and while they have policies in place for everything they are very respectful when enforcing them. I very much respect their professionalism. The location is also amazing, but when it rains beware it does flood a little in the front. Just wear some rain boots and it'll be all good. Read Less

This is BY FAR the BEST place to get any type of waxing done. I've been a regular waxer for a little over 2 years and I will never ever go anywhere else. The prices are extremely reasonable and the girls there are fabulous. Every one of them are very personable and knowledgable. They are far superior to any other wax places in Baton Rouge. I genuinely look forward to my appointments each month. Wether you're a first timer or a veteran, they make everyone feel welcome and comfortable, especially during something that's actually quite UNcomfortable. Love this place! I can't praise them enough. Both locations are equally amazing. Read Less

I've been a client of Zanella's for nearly a year.  I always arrived on time for my appointments and was treated well.  Recently, I began to experience rashes and bumps after my waxing sessions.   The last time it was really bad, and covered my entire chest and neck.  Prior to my next appointment I called and mentioned that I thought it might be due to the service I was getting.  I was told by Carly that she's never seen anything like that.  The next day, I missed an appointment due to illness.  She called and rescheduled to Tuesday.  I tried to explain that getting there after work would be tough, but she was determined that I come.  That day, I got stuck in traffic in a heavy rain storm.  My phone was dead, and I had no way to call them. That afternoon I got a reciept in my email.  They had charged my credit card without my approval for half of the appointment.  I fully understand their policy but contacting the client by phone or email first would be the right thing to do.  While reading their policy on cancellations, I noticed that YES some people do have reactions to the product that they use.  In this case, it's highly likely that I did.   As a person who once ran a small business I understand that referrals are important to grow that business, and that honesty is important as well.  I should have not been rescheduled because I had a reaction.  If a small business truly wants to prosper, they need to realize that not every person is right for their service.  If they had treated this situation correctly, I would have written a glowing review about them and unfortunately how I had to find an alternate method of hair removal that would live up to Zanella's.  Instead, I am writing a review warning others about my treatment.

I had a great experience getting a Brazilian wax here. It was a very quaint and clean environment. I feel like it's very important, as far as dignity goes, for the aesthetician to be personable and that's exactly what she was. I don't recall her name, but she made great conversation. The student discount was a huge plus I can't forget to mention. I made another appointment without hesitation. I'd recommend to anyone who gets waxed! Read Less

I went to have my eyebrows done today on my lunch break. This was my first visit to Zanella's, my mom is a client and recommended them to me. They are located across the street from Zeeland Street Market in a very nice part of town. I'm familiar with the area, but even if I wasn't there wouldn't have been any problem finding them as their signage is easily spotted from the street. Upon entering, you're welcomed by an adorable seating area with comfy sofas. I completed a questionnaire and signed a waiver and then I was off to my waxing! I had a wonderful experience and I made my follow up appointment before I left. It was very quick, but in no way did I feel rushed out of the door. It just didn't take long. I had no wait whatsoever, they were ready for me immediately up my arrival. I will definitely recommend Zanella's! Read Less
