Belladonna continues
to reign as one of LA's best meccas for skincare. It's minimalistic–with
subtle Asian accents and perfectly painted murals. The native Romanian
owner, Mihaela, and her highly trained staff administer phenomenal facials
that include lengthy, meticulous extractions, as well as an enzyme peel
and a blissful moisturizing massage. Her waxing is equally wonderful.
Mihaela's enamored Hollywood clientele depend on her Epicuren-enhanced
serviced without booking their next appointment–at least a month
in advance. |
"People are so obsessed here in LA," Mihaela Corcoz says
with a giggle. "They all tell me to go all the way–very clean."
Even so, Corcoz likes to stick to her artistic principals. "I don't
like to see straight lines; I'd rather keep a feminine shape."
Fans rave about her post wax attention to detail: She diligently plucks
always the strays and even gets out all the wayward ingrowns. |
The giggly Mihaela Corcoz won't disclose her celebrity clients, but
she will give you one of the best bikini waxes in town. Her more natural-looking
shape is "clean all the way, but more feminine. I was looking at
old paintings in Italy, and I said to myself, 'That's how it's supposed
to look!'" she says with a laugh.
So good she (Mihaela) trains everyone else on staff. |
We want to be friends with Mihaela Corcoz. She's so fun and bubbly
that she almost makes a bikini wax festive. Almost. Known for her natural
yet clean shapes, which she says are "more feminine," Mihaela
takes her time and gets it all–if you know what we mean. The salon
owner's style is so popular, especially among celebs (they love her
discreet back door), that Mihaela has never had to advertise. Hint:
this means you'll have to get on the horn pretty early in the race to
land an appointment with this bikini-bare queen.
