“I had a Brazilian wax done at Coalition Skin in Gastown. They were wonderful. Minimal pain, hygienic, and made sure that I was happy with the results! Will definitely be back.”

— D, Vancouver BC

“The wax technicians are awesome and the waxes they use make the experience relatively painless :). I recommend CoalitionSkin (The Pxssy Shop) to everyone!”

— Iona, Vancouver BC

“Hands-down the best at Brazilians in the city (Vancouver). Easy people to talk to- they make you feel instantly welcome & comfortable, fun, fast, as painless as possible, & use really good quality wax and products on your skin before and after. Also, it’s markedly less expensive than the other high-quality places… & CoalitionSkin is better quality all around. Rock n’ Roll beauty!”

— Didi, Vancouver BC

“Annik is RAD and is the best waxersI have found on this continent!!! I have been going to her routinely for almost 6 years, and there is no place I trust more. All the babes at CoalitionSkin are amazing waxers, they’re professional, super friendly, their prices are super reasonable.
GO SEE THEM! You won’t regret it!!!”

— Cat, Vancouver BC

“The Brazilian waxers here truly are specialists! Funnily, they are way better at a Brazilian than all the waxers I have been to in Brazil. I absolutely love getting waxed here.”
-Mariana from Brazil!, Vancouver BC
“The shop was beautiful and welcoming. The waxer was fantastic!! She was so warm and friendly and I felt really comfortable with her. The whole experience was also almost completely painless which I’ve never had before. Especially since I was having a Brazillian. I will be recommending this place to my friends!”

“Since I have known of the existence of the Brazilian wax I have looked for someone that I would feel comfortable enough to allow to do this delicate procedure on me. Now it’s been 9 years seeing Annik at her shop and I would never go anywhere else.”
-Karey, Vancouver BC

“Johnna made my first experience at Coalition Skin (now The Pxssy Shop) so incredibly amazing, I will never go elsewhere ever again! After having a pretty traumatic painful experience at another salon in the past, I was dreading my waxing appointment, but Johnna was so friendly and sweet, she put me at ease right away. She was professional and very calming. She explained everything step-by-step and let me know exactly what was happening. She reminded me to breathe! And she kept me distracted by chatting away with me. My wax was so quick and relatively painless compared to past experiences! And it felt like heaven after. Absolutely clean and professional environment. Definitely will be a regular here.”
-Abigail, Vancouver BC
“Some of us were just born with artistic talent. Sadly, I am not one of them. Which is why I leave my eyebrow shaping to CoalitionSkin (now The Pxssy Shop).
I have been all over town to get my eyebrows done… sketchy places that double-dip their wax (ewww), places that burned my eyebrows with wax that was too hot, places that left me with eyebrows that looked like polar opposites of the other… So I totally have eyebrow PTSD and am wary of people messing with eyebrows. Unfortunately, my eyebrows look like Ugly Betty if they are left untouched.
They take the time to confirm where your arch should start and where the brows should begin and end each time, check how you like your brows and they trim and tweeze to get everything just right. My eyebrow PTSD has turned into an eyebrow waxing addiction!”
-Mary, Vancouver BC
“I have been a client of Annik’s for two years. I have found her delightful, professional and personable. I have been a customer in this particular industry for nine years. I have never been as pleased with such services as I have been with Annik. She has always fitted me into her schedule and her waxes are quick, painless and always perfect! Her warm gentle nature makes for a very comfortable atmosphere.
I truly believe she will have a very successful business and I will continue to see her for as long as she is practicing. I have recommended her to all my friends and acquaintances whom have since become regular clients.”
Ashley Grobell, Vancouver BC
“I have been coming to this shop for my Brazilian wax and axilla (armpits) wax for almost ten years and there is a multitude of reasons that has kept me coming back so long. Everyone on their team is always amazing, courteous, friendly, accommodating and a joy to be around; the environment promotes and supports safety, positivity, and promoting local art and artists; the services have always been excellent, professional, and clean. I highly recommend coming here!!! Best wax hands down! They are located downtown Vancouver/ near Gastown area. They also have excellent merch and at times they host super incredible classes/workshops (yoga, meditation, etc.)!”
Ali, Vancouver BC
“Had to write a review about my Brazilian-wax experience at The Pxssy Shop with Olivia today. I am super sensitive with what I’ve previously been told is difficult hair and was always full of dread every time I had to go in for a wax, but I will almost be looking forward to my next appointment at this place. Not only was each staff an absolute joy to talk to but it was also the most painless wax I’ve ever had. Can’t recommend enough. I also love their retail boutique filled with skincare products, spirituality books, tarot decks, local art and beautiful macrame decor. I bought one for my foyer wall and one for my office! If you are in Vancouver, go there!”
R, North Vancouver BC

“CoalitionSkin (now The Pxssy Shop). I will never go to another place to get all my beautifying done! Plus, it doesn’t hurt that the staff are amazing… love you!”
Christi, Vancouver BC
“Annik of The Pxssy Shop is a skilled and knowledgeable piercer and aesthetician. I met her when she was piercing out of Adrenaline Vancouver. She offers a professional and personable experience to her clients, in addition to using quality products and following sanitary standards. It is for these reasons and more that I have remained a loyal client of her shop’s for the past ten years and will continue to be so well into the future.”
Frances Ashly, Vancouver BC
“Down to earth, friendly, and will do your Brazilian to your exact specifications. I started coming here after Sugarbox priced themselves out of the market, and I couldn’t be happier with the results. Sayonara Sugarbox, hello CoalitionSkin!”
C.P, Vancouver BC
“My experiences with CoalitionSkin have all been wonderful. I have been going for 8 years – when I’m in Vancouver, and can definitely say they are professional and excel at what they do. There is always a calming environment with both aromatherapy and music. I also find that when I get a Brazilian wax from them it is far less painful than from other places. Thanks to their technique and amazing hard-wax, quality wax they use!”
Sarah, Toronto ON
“I get Dermalogica skin treatments at CoalitionSkin (now The Pxssy Shop) and they are great. The staff are professional and put time and effort into every detail needed for relaxation and comfort. After treatments, my face feels amazing and I see and feel a difference in the cleanliness of my skin for weeks. Merci!”
Chloé Beaulac, Montréal Qc
“I love when my girl gets a Brazilian wax at Coalition Skin, it’s clean, smooth and sexy. Also easy on my tongue when I go for my dessert if you catch my drift.” (HAHAHA. We love this review.)
Albert, Vancouver BC

“Annik has always been very gentle and extremely nice. Her customer service skills are unparalleled and her friendly nature makes the painful parts of a wax a breeze. I have never met someone who is as good at their craft as she is. A true delight!”
Rob, Vancouver BC
“Solid work. Thorough. Clean. Comfortable. Great people, cool art for sale.”
Lou Anne, Vancouver BC
“I would like to start off by saying I rarely write testimonials on behalf of anything, but after my experiences here I feel I should. I’ve been going to The Pxssy Shop for well over 5 years for all my waxing needs. I would never trust another ( besides myself ) with my tender nether regions. Their top-quality waxes and the fact that they actually are masters using hard-wax. They are professional, amicable- easy to “open up to.” Don’t hesitate to go there- you won’t be sorry.”
Briana, Vancouver BC
“Absolutely love The Pxssy Shop! Everyone does amazing eyebrows –I have very specific taste and they listen to my every request. I have Brazilian waxing done there as well. They are always quick, thorough and make good conversation to distract from what is going on! I recommend this spot to all of my girlfriends. It is definitely Vancouver’s best wax bar!”
M, Toronto ON
“Professional and the technicians know what they are doing. No pain at all! Easiest and best male-Brazilian wax I’ve had. Thank you!”
Aron, Vancouver BC

“It was great! Fast and painless, plus my eyebrows look fantastic. I can’t wait to go back for part two!”
A, Vancouver BC
“Coalition Skin (now The Pxssy Shop) is the ONLY place I go for my waxing. My eyebrows look the best they have ever looked as Annik showed me which spots to grow in to get the ideal shape for my features. And bikini waxes are super quick! These guys are the best <3.”
