Rio Wax Salon offers everything that is innovative about hair removal--laser hair removal, threading and plain old waxing--to get rid of practically any bodily hairs you can think of. Rio Wax Salon is one of the few salons that uses the Alma Laser’s, a pain-free laser hair removal system that is actually ideal for all skin colors.

Experienced estheticians use Dannielli’s own brand of gentle waxes - Royal Pink Wax, Royal Honey Wax and Royal Hard Wax products—to cater to clients’ different skin types. The salon also uses a specially formulated numbing cream, Rio Numb, that helps take the edge off waxing. Dannielli and her staff always educate their clients on all aspects of pre- and post-waxing to get the best results.

All estheticians and laser technicians are certified and have years of experience under their belt. Staffers have embraced the Brazilian ways and culture, which means their hospitality and their friendliness, can be contagious, they are passionate about beauty and feeling good and they find the "fun" in what they do. Hip and trendy, it is. Rio Wax Salon could be the go-to location for the hottest bikinis and lounge wear in the Valley. Why? During her annual trips to Brazil, Dannielli has personally chosen some amazing bikinis and lounge wear from Brazilian designers, which can make anyone the center of attention at any swim party.

"Brazil is known for their teeny-weeny bikinis, so we make sure that you look smooth, hair-free and glowing when you put one of these swimwear on," said Dannielli.

And believe us when we say that Rio Wax Salon goes beyond what anyone's expectation when it comes to making their clients smooth, glowing, hair-free and beautiful.

My Laser Hair Removal!

I've been doing laser here for almost 4 months, and after doing some extensive research for the best deal I could find in Phoenix! I really don't think you can beat their prices. I started off with my armpits, and now also my bikini, upper lip and chin. I will add legs sometime later, now that I know it works for me! I made sure also to know before setting my journey into laser hair removal that the best painless laser was called Alma, ‘cause to change from the pain of waxing to laser it needed to be better!More 3 treatments and I will be done; the laser tech said I may have to come back for a touch-up next year! I was impressed with the treatment I received.

So I was told about this place...

So I was told about this place by a female co-worker and been from New York where the famous J-Sisters created the whole buss about Brazilian Bikini Wax in USA; where who is who has been their client. She told me that the Girls from Rio Wax Salon are also from Brazil like the famous J-Sisters. As with all word to mouth reviews I was somewhat skeptical but decided to check out the website. I figured I had nothing to lose except some unwanted hair and a probable painful experience. On walking into the Rio wax Salon in Phoenix. I was greeted warmly by the receptionist and a woman I later discovered to be one of the Brazilian Girls. The place is charming, very clean and runs like a well-oiled machine. Dannielli ushered me into a small room and within 15 min. I was done with minimal pain. The combination of doing only small areas at a time, using baby powder and finishing up with rash lotion to soothe the area is definitely the magic touch! These ladies are skilled and the fact that I am paying much less that I used at the J-Sisters Salon for a Brazilian bikini wax; it will keep me going back says everything! Ladies I highly recommend this place because if your pain threshold is Zero this is the place for you with awesome results.

This is the ultimate waxing experience! The Rio Wax Salon is the Phoenix Brazilian Bikini Waxing Place. I like the authenticity of technique being from Brazil.

Dannielli is Fantastic!! She explains the process and set my expectations on how long my Brazilian would last, maintenance. She moved quickly, waxing each section thoroughly. She got every last hair and I really appreciate their Numbing Cream, it really does the magic!!!

Her work is to make me bikini-ready when you walk out the door; having the satisfaction that is the best Bikini wax work around and knowing that she always will be there for me!

The Ultimate Brazilian wax job in Scottsdale, Tempe and Mesa area too!

I'm glad that my friend Tenisia introduced my to Dannielli at Rio Wax Salon in Phoenix, Arizona. When I moved from San Francisco for my new job in Downtown Scottsdale and had to go home in Central Phoenix, making my driving through Indian School Rd and Rio Wax Salon is just around the corner. Dannielli is just like they say the Queen of Waxing and I am more than happy finding her. She is gentle, friendly, kind and very loving! To get my Brazilian Bikini Wax from here is more than a just waxing experience, it is a trip to a friendliness garden place hidden amongs big trees and lovely landscape.

It is a cozy place that I feel always welcomed!

I have a lot body hair that became a hindrance in my relationships and to find a easy way out has not been simple. I did not want to use waxing because would be too much of work and discomfort. I found that Rio Wax Salon offers painless laser hair removal.

I drove north on 32 street phoenix and saw their sign by the sidewalk. I called their number and set an consultation appointment to know my options.

I decided doing their painless laser and bought 6 treatments. It was the best solution for what I needed. The laser felt more like a warm light and the hair started fallen and after I completed my package I'm satisfied with the results!

I went with my girlfriend for her Brazilian Bikini Wax and VIPeel at Rio Wax Salon in Phx. I decided to book my Eyebrow wax and Brazilian Bikini wax as well. I needed it done the following week and it would save me time. I got a waxer that had a lot waxing experience she did great eyebrow design and the Brazilian came out right!

We did not have to wait much time and they finished both of us pretty much at the same time.

We went to Rio Wax Salon for our group of co-works to have our Brazilian Bikini Wax and Facials done. We had booked in advanced and everything went as planned.

We drove together to their location by Indian School rd and 32 Street. The appointment starts at 5:15PM. We liked that Rio Wax Salon is not your typical salon.

We were pleased to find it located in a greenery property that took us away from the busy noise place of our building. The services were a 10!

We will be back for sure!

I have been waxing for quite some time at various salons and recently decided to give Rio Wax Salon in Phoenix a shot. The Salon is conveniently located close to my job at 24 St. and Camelback Rd. and I was looking for a good and fuss-free place in the neighborhood that delivers good results. One of the nice girls (Rai) that work there was the waxer and my best friend told me to not even thinking in try the strip-free Hard Wax treatment. I was a bit confused about how a wax can be strip-free, because I have always used with strip and soft wax. The level of pain is definitely reduced in comparison to a regular hot wax; she told me! The soft wax most importantly is more hygienic she insured me – It was an extremely nice experience that made me feel comfortable throughout the whole procedure. Definitely going back to Rio Wax Salon next time!
