Agnes is outstanding. I needed results after trying laser (which made matters worse), and after working with another electrolysis provider for 6 months with little to no results. I have seen amazing results after just 3 visits. This third visit Agnes really let her personality shine, she is such a witty, brilliant person in addition to being a talented provider. I consider her a God-send. She has evening and weekend hours. Highly recommend.

Giselle scheduled me for the following week after telling me I was booked for the same day. After driving there, agnes informed me it's the following week by a mistake on their end. It took two hours of my time. No one barely answers the phone and it's constant phone tag to schedule. There are many other options/electrolysis places I'll look into.

I would 100% recommend electrolysis with Marcy - she is so kind and very knowledgeable about everything to do with electrolysis and hair growth. I've had sessions for about two months now and I already see a huge difference in my facial hair regrowth. I used to pluck my hair daily, and now I can go a whole week with very minimal hair regrowth. I'm not suggesting others will have the same results this quickly, but anyone considering it should definitely try it.
I have a long journey ahead of me, but it's genuinely been life changing so far. Have patience and try it out - you can't go wrong with Marcy as your electrologist.

Marcy has helped me so much. I had a lot of chin hair and really hated it. I did tweezing, waxing and laser. Marcy was very patient at my consultation explaining the process, stages of hair growth, why laser did not work etc. I first went weekly, then bimonthly, then less and less. The hair is gone. It is one of the best things I've ever done for myself.
I think Marcy knows her clients have a vulnerability sharing a part of themselves they feel self conscious about. She has always been very professional and respectful to me with her care. I am forever grateful and now my husband can kiss my neck without me feeling embarrassed!

A couple of people in our family have needed Marcy's services and the results and experience have been 100% satisfactory. One started in junior high; the before and after family photos speak for themselves. Eyebrows are very natural. Marcy runs a very professional office: scheduling far in advance is possible and even sometimes necessary, good about calling when she has a waitlist and finds an opening, hardly ever a wait, easy to talk to. Highly recommend. Plus she knows her business and her opinions are informed from years of experience.

I have been a client of Marcy's for almost 20 years. I should say, around 20 years ago I had Marcy work on my eyebrows and upper lip, and I've had many many years now where I didn't need to return and they haven't even needed to be maintained at all, and people still give me compliments on my eyebrows beautiful shape. It is all thanks to Marcy! Now that I'm older I've returned to Marcy for other pesky hormonal hairs that have cropped up.
I've recommended her services to many people. She is professional, clean, works quickly and comfortably. There is good reason that her schedule is booked so far in advance, she does amazing work!

A friend of mine recommended Marcy & A Permanent Effect 9 years ago before I went to college. She did an incredible job and was very knowledgeable, professional & clean - I couldn't have been happier! This past summer, I needed new areas treated and immediately reached out to Marcy. She remembered me, put me on a schedule and the results, again, have been great!

I've been going to Marcy for maybe 9 years (since I was 17) and I can truly say she's great! She is very professional and does her job well. She works very fast and I always make sure to make consistent appointments with her months in advance. She is knowledgable about hair removal and I know my skin and body are in good hands with her. I would recommend her to anyone who wants to achieve hair removal results. Electrolysis requires time commitment and patience, and as long as you understand that, you will see results with her.

I have been seeing Marcy for over 20 years on and off. She has completely removed hair from over 4 areas, some of them very sensitive. She's extremely professional and she takes very good care of her clients. Marcy cares that she's doing a good job and works with you. She is a nice, good person. Thank you Marcy for making me feel more comfortable with myself and not embarrassed. Debbie.

I have been a Client of Marcy's for 5 years now and the outcome is better than anything I hoped for. Originally I was going to wax or thread my eyebrows and lip hair however, when my moms friend mentioned Marcy and her services we got very excited. Marcy was very patient with us and answered all of our questions clearly. We felt comfortable with her right away. She has truly changed my life and the confidence I hold.

I drove 45min after a 3 week wait to get in to see Marcy after reading good reviews. I'm turning 29 and I must have looked alot younger to her because she immediately acted as if I was a lost little girl in the wrong office? I have tattooed eyebrows and after insulting me and referring to my tatted brow as a "pink line" (it's brown btw?) Then I'm thinking to myself omg this poor lady is colorblind, she proceeded to ask me "wheres your other eyebrow" I simply answer "it's sparse thats just how it grows in now from 15 years of tweezing unfortunately" onto business I tell her I want the hair above my tattooed eyebrows permantly removed.
She comes out and say "I'm not comfortable with that I only do natural looks" For some odd reason I thought since I was the paying customer It was suppose to be my choice in how I wanted my extremely thick eyebrows thinned out. So I said ok "can you just take off whatever your comfortable with taking off" She said no lets find you someone closer.
She just flat out refused to do even anything with them. Point blank if your not over the age of 40 and a white lady she's probably not interested in doing her job with you. Ignorance at it's best.

I have been coming to Marcy for hair removal for a few years now. I began with Marcy and then made the decision to try laser because I thought it was less painful and would work just as well. I wasted over a year and made my hair growth way worse, only to come back to Marcy in the end. There is absolutely nothing that can beat electrolysis when it comes to permanent hair removal.
I also believe that not all electrologists are created equal. Marcy is not only extremely professional but efficient as well. She has absolutely changed my life (not to sound dramatic), but not having to worry about unwanted hair is an amazing feeling. I have recommended so many people to her and I will continue to.

Let me start off by saying I've had electrolysis before and that person retired. I will not go back here again. I was left with bumps all over the lower portion of my face because the technician didn't run that metal roller thing that prevents this (or at least diminishes) over the treated area at the end of the session - bumps lasted a good 48 hours.
I had to keep icing the treated area. In addition to the bumps, pinhead scabs developed and that didn't clear up for 2 weeks. I've never had this happen before. Technician was Lubna (nice lady but not sure she knows what she's doing).

I have been going to Marcy for a number of years now. I have only good things to say. I would recommend her for a number of reasons. Quality of work, cleanliness, professionalism, price, timeliness. THANK YOU Marcy!l. I highly recommend Permanent Effect. I have been to other electrolysis in the past and she is the only one I have been 100% happy with. You cannot go to just anyone. They could do some serious damage or make problems worse.

I've been going to Marcy for approx. seven months now and I for one can tell you, she is great! I've already noticed a considerable amount of reduction in the areas treated, even though I've only been going for 15 mins every week. She makes you feel comfortable and from the get-go I knew I came to someone who knew what they were doing. Highly recommended.
