"Two years & $1800 spent on laser treatments and I was not even close to being hair free."
"I spent two years having laser treatments and spent $1800 and was not even close to being hair free. In fact, I was right back where I started. Then I found Jade Electrolysis who delivered permanent results. I have had permanent hair removal as promised... and most importantly, I trust Jade Electrolysis completely. They are definitely the hair removal specialists."

For years I'd been thinking of doing more permanent 'manscaping' in the 'bikini area', but for obvious reasons had held off. As a man, I had expected electrolysis on the bathing suit area to be perhaps somewhat physically painful but most likely embarrassingly awkward.
I looked online off and on and when I found Jade's website, I got a good vibe. Jennifer, the proprietor, put a lot of information on her site and overall I got a strong sense of professionalism and competence. I decided to give it a shot. I called them up and had to ask the awkward question about whether they could help me. Jennifer repeated Jade's mantra "any hair, anywhere".
The anticipation was by far the worst part. The procedure itself was incredibly painless both physically and psychologically. The entire process was extremely professional and all awkwardness disappeared immediately.
As for the results, well I am 80% through the process and I couldn't be more pleased. The regular 'manscaping' that was required is no longer, and I am very near the point where tweezing will be a thing of the past.
I couldn't recommend Jade Electrolysis enough. I wouldn't change a thing about their service, and I am very pleased with the results!

I had tried every single other method of hair removal before coming to jade, including but not limited to waxing, bleaching, plucking, shaving, threading, laser...
At another Vancouver business for laser - I had 8 treatments of laser on my upper lip and chin. Everything seemed to be moving along and the hair was disappearing. Within a year not only was the hair growing back but thicker, darker and in areas it had never been. Within 2 years I was miserable, caught between a rock (I was naturally growing facial hair) and a hard place (I hated it - is that me talking or social pressures?). Strangers thought I had dirt on my face and if i shaved, I would have shadow by the end of the day.
I could only find limited information on Electrolysis and many websites said if you weren't careful in picking your electrolysis that you could get scarring on your body 6 months after a visit... of course they didn't say what to look for which made this that much scarier.
I started out with a very kind and friendly lady but the electrolysis was lengthly and my face had an awful reaction (scabbing, redness, swollen).
I then moved to Jade Electrolysis on Broadway and MacDonald. BEST MOVE I EVER MADE. Family business where everyone is knowledgable and answer your questions honestly. Reception is friendly and soon bookable online. The owner is professional, experienced, and friendly. She has many years of not only practicing but teaching behind her and I trust her with my face! I bought cream (they sell it, easy peazy!) that I apply half an hour before a visit that numbs my face and helps with any pain. Epson salts applied to my face twice as Jade Electrolysis recommends, and I've noticed that the puffiness that I used to have in response is getting milder with every visit. I don't have any scabbing since I made the switch. My hair is thinner, and barely there now. I am so grateful for Jade Electrolysis and the work they have done for me. Not to mention their optional reminder (for appointments only) calls! I can finally concentrate on other things and not worry about people staring at my face. Hair just wasn't for me. Thank you Jade!

I can hardly think of anyone so committed to her work than Karen. She is very accommodating with scheduling appointments (she works seven days a week). The space is immaculate; very professional, clean, and conveniently located. She is enthusiastic about what she does, and she listens to the concerns of her clients. I also found her very fair with pricing--she charges only for the time she spends even if the appointment was for longer. I'm happy to have found this place.

I saw an ad for Jade in the Georgia Straight and thought that it was time to seek treatment for permanent hair removal. After YEARS of treatment from another source I was unhappy that the hair kept growing back as if I had just started a first treatment. Happy to say that after only three sessions with Jade, I have already noticed a significant decrease in hair regrowth. Sticking to the removal of the hair based on its growth cycle is important and that was something that was never explained to me before. Jade is very dedicated and passionate about the hair removal that is being done and I finally feel confident that my facial hair will be gone in a timely manner. If you haven't had a consultation, go in for one now! You'll get back your confidence and those tweezers and plucking sessions will be a thing of the past!

I found Jade through a marketing course I was taking. By this point I had tried ineffective laser treatments. There was no permanent hair removal with laser and my skin had discoloration due to laser burns. The dermatologist suggested I stop laser treatments as my skin would burn further and darken; a hugely disappointing prospect. I knew I was in good hands the moment I met Jennifer. She is kind, professional and patient but most importantly knew the struggles that go along with having unwanted facial hair. She is meticulous and takes great pride in her work and skill. I love her enthusiasm and can do attitude and it's exactly what I needed. I've seen her since May and my face looks and feels amazing......permanent hair removal and no discoloration! I highly recommend Jade electrolysis.

After going through electrolysis for YEARS with no results, I was so happy to find Jade. I've paid more per visit with Jade than with others but my hair is actually disappearing resulting in fewer visits required. Jenn taught me what to expect from properly executed electrolysis (no pulling) and Jenn is definitely a pioneer in her field and constantly refining her technique. She is doing a service to all by PROPERLY training individuals to use her methods so that this art is not lost. I can now go on a 2 week vacation without worrying that I won't benefit from my bi-weekly electrolysis session (that I later learned was actually a plucking). Jade is the only electrolysis clinic in Vancouver I would recommend.

I was recommended to Jade Electrolysis through another happy customer. I hadn't thought about getting my eyebrows done before but after meeting Jenn and going through the process I am so happy I did. No more weekly plucking or threading. They have a beautiful, clean office space and I have really enjoyed my time with Jenn. I thoiught it was something I was just doing for me but last week i had a waitress apologize after stumbling through my menu order saying, "I'm sorry, but your perfect eyebrows are distracting me!". I would highly recommend Jade Electrolysis.

Jade was my fifth attempt at finding a decent electrologist. Up until I started at Jade I hadn't seen anything in terms of results. The four previous electrologists couldn't even perform blend on my face with the decade old machines they were using as all attempts resulted in strange and unusual discomforts. The atmosphere of the other studios were reminiscent of rundown shanties or cheap hotels and was rather uncomfortable. Jenn is very good at what she does and I feel very re-assured when I go to see her. Her hands are steady and her manner is very professional. She is always trying to keep her technique cutting edge and is striving to be a cut above the rest to ensure that she delivers the most effective and pain-free hair removal solution for her clients. Jenn is also a very pleasant person to be around and has a great sense of humor. I have been a patient of Jade for 2 years now and plan on over time having all my unwanted hair removed. Thx Jenn!

A girl friend recommended Jade to me. She has been to other electrolysis places, but the results aren't permament. At Jade, they use state of the art equipment with amazing results. The treatment rooms are large and surgical quality clean. The staff were extremely professional, experienced, and made me very comfortable. You can watch a movie during your treatment! I am very happy with my silky smooth skin. No more straining to pluck facial hair out of focus length of my glasses! Jennifer and Janine are very caring and I recommend them highly.

I am so impressed & pleased with the results I have received from Jennifer & Janine here. I am a 30-year old guy from North Vancouver who used to have a fairly hairy back. After trying out a few electrolygists in the area (and laser-hair-removal places which did not work at all), I came here for a consultation and was immediately impressed by the kind and professional advice. They scheduled me in right away for my treatments, and in less than 1 year my back now looks fantastic......and these are permanent results! I am really impressed. Very clean & tidy, wonderful staff (Jennifer & Janine), and fantastic permanent results. None of this laser mumbo-jumbo!! These are the best electrolygists in Canada, bar none. Plus they have free After-Eight mints at the front desk!!!

And the results? Flawless. I've been a client for a few months and have nothing but good things to report. both mother and daughter are incredibly professional. Full face hurts enough to make me cry every time, but they have given me all the time I need and made sure I was ok every step.
