Called about 10 mins out bc my battery died and explained but they have a 5 min grace period policy that seems to be a nonnegotiable regardless. Just a heads up if you think you might be late. ?

Gabriella is an absolute QUEEN! She was my go to girl when I attended UGA for Brazilian waxes. She is hilarious, super kind, extremely thorough, and very professional. I always looked forward to my waxes with Gabriella because I felt like I was visiting a friend. If I wasn’t moving away I would continue to see her. I can’t recommend her enough. The woman who attends the front desk is also amazing, and squeezed me in on multiple occasions when I was in a crunch. This is establishment really values customer service and are the best in the business.

I have been coming here for a couple years. I have tried almost every esthetician that comes to work here but I always come back to Gabriella. She has been here the longest and she is very sweet! She is great at what she does. They also have deals for college students on Tuesday & Wednesday! Would definitely recommend.

I have never had a bad experience in the year I’ve been getting my legs waxed here. I feel like I’ve probably been waxed by everyone there, and everyone has always done an amazing job. Mona did an amazing job the last time I went. She was very thorough and made sure she got everything. I will always come here to get my legs waxed :)Service: Waxing

This place has went from a 5 star to 0 for me. I usually book with Gabriella .. she is quick & does a good job but if you’re looking for good bedside manner or someone friendly this is not the establishment for you. She can come off as rude and I just took it as that’s how her nationality is. They’ve also dropped to 0 rating for me because if you are pregnant DO NOT BOOK HERE. I had a terrible experience with Gabriella last month as she was about to refuse to do the service because I’m pregnant. I tried to book again today and had to cancel the appointment right after making it because they called me about being pregnant. It’s bittersweet because Rio is the first establishment to ever do a wax for me all those years ago but I will not be were turning nor referring anyone to go here . Run fast to another establishment.Services: Body waxing

I have been seeing Gabriella for 5 years and she has always been super polite and nice. Not only that she is very quick at what she does and makes the whole experience easier.I also took my 8 month pregnant sister to get her last waxing before having her baby, and she was a little nervous since it was her first time getting waxed- gabriella was so nice and let me join her in the room to keep her company. She was also great in catering to my sister needs by putting a pillow on her back and always checking if she was ok.Gabriella is the best esthetician i have been to in athens (and i have been to many) and her customer service and the services that she provides are top notch and I have recommended her to all my friends and family. She truly is the best.Services: Body waxing

I’ve had a great experience with Rio Body Wax. I see Gabriella; she’s very good and very knowledgeable. I’ve never had a Brazilian prior to this experience, but now that I have I will definitely continuing with Gabriella and Rio. She’s knowledgeable, fast, and personable. I have no complaints only praises.

Went to the location in Athens. Gabby was the technician that did my Brazilian wax and under arms. I choose her because she is normally friendly and upbeat…and just thoughtful. Today she was NONE OF THAT. My feelings are extremely hurt by her rude words, argumentative tone and inconsiderate gestures. It will be a long time before I come back. I am so embarrassed, disappointed, and ashamed that I even came today. Firstly, I took the time to shower and trim before coming in today. I arrived to my appointment on time. I was then greeted by Gabby(the young lady that I always admired and adored because of her kindness and thoughtfulness). I walked in the room- got prepared. Gabby came in and started on my under arms…then she started working on my Brazilian wax. As she was working on my private area, I suggested that she hold firmly before pulling off the hair and wax…it was just a SIMPLE suggestion…she then got upset and started making some very rude and smart statements such as:“We do this all the time Brittany. Maybe if you would’ve trimmed the hair it wouldn’t hurt.” She also said, “I AM the professional- I know what I am doing!” I responded and said, “I understand Gabby but I’m in pain and I’m the customer. I understand you’re the “professional” but I never figured it would hurt to kindly OFFER a suggestion.” Then Gabby stated, “ I CAN YELL FOR ANOTHER PERSON TO DO THE WAX FOR YOU IF YOU WANT! All I have to do is yell!” As If she were threatening me. As I sat quietly with my feelings hurt because of her rude, insensitive, aggressive and hostile behavior- I couldn’t help but wonder what I did to Gabby…I will not be coming back for a while. The aggression and negativity towards me was just too unbelievable and unnecessary. I let gabby know I alway leave her great tips ($10, $15 and sometimes $20 for the services rendered) because I always appreciated her and wanted to be nice to her.…she didn’t seem to care about that either…..But never again. She has now become cold hearted and heartless like the rest of the people in the world. Gabby was always warm hearted. So sad. Bye Gabby & Rio Body Wax.-Brittany T

I have been going to Rio Body Wax for a long time and every time has been a great experience. I currently see Amanda for Brazilian waxes and she does a great job. She is very friendly and is efficient with her waxes. Would definitely recommend for anyone needing a wax in the Athens area

Went there when I was in Athens some time ago. They did a good job. I would recommend them if you want to ditch shaving for waxing.
