Hands down best facial in all of California!
by Gissella
Let me tell you how I converted and became a devotee of Pacific Heights Skin Care:
I had the amazing fortune of meeting Shari 9 years ago. Up until then I was the typical, anxiety ridden woman without a clue on how to take care of her skin. I tried every OTC product Walgreens carried, no luck. I then made the foolish mistake of wasting money on "miracle" lotions and potions carried by department stores, all to no avail.
In comes Shari Spakes. She was featured in Allure magazine, checked her out, and was sold on day one. Since my first visit I now have the skin to prove that Shari is the absolute best. My skin is completely clear with the healthy glow only a great skin care regimen can provide. If Shari doesn't give it to me, it does not go on my face!
GO TO SHARI! She is the best person you could ever meet and an absolute professional. She tailors her treatments to your skin and body's needs; nothing more, nothing less. All in all, Shari is the bona-fide esthetician for making that ever elusive beautiful skin become a reality. She certainly did it for me.

Skin care
by RastaLove
I cannot believe how amazing Shari is! If anyone has delt with troubled skin, you know how completely frustrating & upsetting it is deal with. For the past 9 years, I have bought many, many, many skincare lines, there is, tried three different estheticians, had monthly regular facials, drank gallons of water, washed my face day & night, took vitmains, did all the research online, and changed my diet & increased my exercise to help my skin. When none of that worked, I went to two different dermatologists including Kathy Fields who is the co-founder of Proactiv. Nothing seemed to work or eliminate my problemed skin and to think I have much money I have spent on my skin, I can probably put a major down payment on a car! When I first went to made an appt w/ Shari, I felt like, here we go, another new esthetician who is going to tell me that she can help my skin & it will be the same results and I will still suffer with my skin. Well, it is truly amazing to see the transformation that Shari has done on me. For the first time in 9 years, I am excited to pull my hair out of my face & smile for pictures. Shari has completely changed my skin and everyone around me is noticing. I laugh when people ask me what I do to have such nice skin. I've only been going to Shari for THREE visits but already there is a dramatic change. To top it all off, Shari is sweet, fun & her treatments are always enjoyable. I recommend her to the highest degree!! I am blessed by Shari and after nine years am finally happy with my skin!!
Pros: Everything
Cons: Nothing

Glowing skin
by angel3cake
Simply put, if you want outstanding skin care, Shari is the best. I've had a number of skin care "experiences" over the years, like adult onset acne and recovering from the after-effects of chemical peels and laser treatments. Shari has come to the rescue every time, in addition to regularly keeping my skin nourished, clear and glowing. Her product knowledge is fantastic as well. I've tried other aestheticians in the past, and all I ever ended up with was a slathering on of random products with no results and a lighter wallet. Now, my skin is gorgeous. I would like to tell people it's genetic, but it's really Shari.
Pros: great skin, relaxing atmosphere, cool music
