What people are saying

"Rather than resort to Botox injections and facelifts I made a decision about 20 years ago to get regular facials from Willa Young at the Facial Studio. Willa is the only one in Marin that I know of who does deep pore cleaning. I do get compliments on how well I look for my age, 79."

“When I started seeing Willa about 18 months ago, my skin was dull, dry and my pores were extremely large. I had certainly had 'facials' but none like Willa’s. My skin immediately responded. I get compliments on my glowing skin. I look younger and healthier. Willa is a skin guru and I am so happy I found her. The shop is clean, relaxing and she never rushes your service. I LOVE THE FACIAL STUDIO.”

“I have been a client of Willa's for over 30 years and would never think of going anywhere else. Willa is a seasoned professional with decades of knowledge. She knows how to treat every skin type and puts you on a plan that gives you radiant and healthy skin for a lifetime. Her holistic approach to skincare has created a following of loyal customers who are not just clients to her but lifelong friends. She is the very best!”

“A facial by Willa is not some fu-fu waste of money, she understands your skin and takes the time to clean every pore. Growing up with acne, my skin was something I always covered up. After seeing Willa consistently, I had a new confidence in my skin and got married in tinted moisturizer and concealer alone! I’ve been a faithful customer for over 10 years and now better understand my skin and its needs through the seasons and life stages.”

“Willa Young is my esthetician for about 35 years. I get Facials and Microdermabrasion with her. She is the best at what she does - the undisputed expert in real skin care, understanding what each client needs and how to max their outcomes. Willa is also the rare esthetician that does REAL facials - meaning she professionally extracts white heads and black heads - an important component of a total Facial. She also is fastidious in using very clean products - which is very important to me. Willa is integrity plus in all she does. And I travel from SF to have the best!”

“Willa is simply amazing! Her technique and expertise are one of a kind! My face glows after every visit. Willa is truly the best!”

“I have been going to get facials from Willa for over 3 years. She is a lovely woman and she is the best esthetician I have ever been to. I have had facials for 35 years and I am an esthetician myself. I wish I found her sooner. You will have the cleanest most hydrated face when you walk out of her room! The products she has are very good and show results quickly. People around me comment on my skin and I say, it’s Willa from The Facial Studio!”

“I met Willa in 1988 and continue to have her do my skincare treatments today. I had experienced a few facials before but the experience of my first facial with Willa was so detailed and so different. She is very focused on cleanliness and meticulous in how she handles every aspect of the appointment that nothing else seems comparable and has kept me coming to her for 30+ years. Willa uses high quality products that she has available for sale, though she never insists that you buy her products. I highly recommend Willa and the services and products of The Facial Studio.”

“Willa has helped me through various phases of skin troubles—from acne in adolescence to dehydrated skin in adulthood. I so appreciate her kindness and her attention to detail. She cares deeply about her clients and is so passionate about proper skincare. I can’t thank Willa enough for helping me with my skin; it’s the best it’s ever been and I get compliments all the time!”

"I am a natural skincare formulator and producer, and I have been working closely with Willa for several years. I never cease to be amazed with the depth of her knowledge and expertise, not to mention the fact that she is one of the few estheticians I work with who offers the sort of labor-intensive techniques that get real results. Her understanding of what actually works and what is just a passing fad, born of decades of experience, makes her stand out in a field in which it can be hard to discern what is genuine from what is just trendy marketing. On top of all of that, Willa is such a wise and wonderful human being.”
