TALK SOON BABE.
MEET your ESTHETICIAN
I’m the proud owner + esthetician behind Waxing by MJ. I am a native Oregonian who is passionate, ambitious and loves taking care of my clients like family. My friends say I’m a great listener and have a way of putting people at ease. My clients know if they want to chat about anything I’m all ears… which normally turns into a therapy session and I wouldn’t have it any other way.
HEY BABE, I'M MARISA!
WHY choose US
LET'S BE HONEST, I'M THE EXPERT
As the owner-operator-extrodinaire, I’m responsible for your entire experience in my studio, and your happiness when you get home. I strive to be meticulous with determination to get every hair, every time, educate my clients on how to take proper care of their skin and lashes.
I recently moved to Portland, OR and was in search of a new place to have my brows done. I saw a friend posted about WaxingbyMJ and I started to follow her insta page. I knew I’d eventually get around to booking, when she featured a giveaway contest for a Brazilian, I entered and ended up winning! I’d never had a Brazilian and was terrified, but excited to give it a whirl (free right, no biggie). I booked brows for the same day. Booking was extremely easy. Marisa texted me day of to give directions, and she made me feel extremely comfortable. The space is clean, and Marisa is so relatable. I immediately rebooked at the end of my appointment. I’d highly recommend her for anyone’s waxing needs!!

This salon space is welcoming and fun, it’s also clean and private. As a consumer of such an intimate service, those things are really important to me. I had been going to waxing-chains before switching to waxing by MJ, and my only regret is not making the switch sooner!! No wonder all of my girlfriends come here. Hands down, the BEST experience ever. Come see Marisa, you will not be sorry! Her attention to detail, efficiency and personality will have you walking out of her salon feeling and looking your best.

I had never gotten my eyebrows professionally waxed or tinted, nor had I gotten my eyelashes lifted or tinted until I went to Marisa. She was absolutely amazing! She perfectly shaped my brows which are very light blonde, and the tinting made them look better than they have ever looked! My eyelashes have also been on fleek, and I wake up feeling so much more fabulous than before. Also, she is just a gem of a human; so sweet and easy to talk to. I will definitely be rebooking!

I've been getting waxed by MJ for 3 years now. She's incredible. Her shop has a down to earth vibe, her customer service is out of this world. 10/10 recommend!

Marisa always takes her time and makes sure to provide the best service. Every experience is great! Her work space is always sparkling clean! I’ve been going to Marissa since moving to Portland over 2 years ago and she’s my favorite! Best in the city, hands down!

Marisa is so great! I recently got my eyebrows and Brazilian done by her and she was very thorough and quick. She was so sweet and her space is beautiful and clean! I will definitely be going back and I recommend her to everyone!

I appreciate Marisa’s service. She is really careful and thorough. It’s easy to schedule services on the web, and her new location is great - bright, clean, and very convenient.
