Having gone to many, many high-end spas in Europe and the states, I feel comfortable saying that Marie is among the top 2 estheticians I have ever seen (canyon ranch is the only other one which didn't leave me broken out and/or experiencing irritation). She is also amazing at eyebrow waxing--I've had several people comment on how perfect they are. I've been going to Acorn for several years now, and am sooo bummed that I'm moving to the east coast--if I could afford it, I'd bring her with me! :) I prefer the clinical and utilitarian above the 'therapeutic/spa' aspects of a facial, and have found her to be great and thorough with extractions, while leaving your skin glowing and with little of the characteristic redness following many facials (the experience is therapeutic as well, it manages the perfect medium). I've had dates and photoshoots after, no problem--just comments on great skin.. my experience here has definitely trumped those with other top-rated PDX spas, where the emphasis has been more on the trappings than substance. I also appreciate that most of her products are natural or organic--and so does my skin. I'm glad I read that citysearch review which first convinced me to go here, when my other experiences had been so disappointing. As an aside, I've never felt my presence unwelcome or that she was aloof.

She put me totally at ease during the waxing appointment. I've had a few other bikini and leg waxes but she worked very quickly and it was finished in no time. Her technique is excellent and she was very nice. I highly recommend.

I didn't find her to be very friendly. The only time she smiled was as she took my money. For how expensive she is, better waxing can be found elsewhere.

I have been a regular at Acorn Body Care for three years now. After several auto accidents resulting in years of back pain, I had seen numerous massageand physical therapists. Out of all of them, Marie (Owner) is by far the most knowledgeable and skilled I've seen. Not only does she give great massages, but she really went out of her way to educate me about my body. She helped me with stretches and exercises, and even gave me a book on back pain to borrow. Marie has very high standards and takes pride in her business and it shows!
