Maria Bonita Salon & Spa

We Provide The Best Brazilian Services With Brazilian Hospitality

  • Beauty & Hair Salon
  • Spa Services
  • Hair Removal

The history of the salon & spa goes back three generations, when Lucia Lombardi Leite, an immigrant from Italy, opened her first hair salon in Brazil. Nowadays, the family still has a full service salon in Uberaba-Brazil, where beauty is a serious type of business. Now, in 2003, the history repeats itself when two sisters, Maria Claudia and Maria Fernanda Lacerda, decided to use the same successful techniques in their new salon. Among the services of our salon, the famous "brazilian-biquini wax" is a must try service. Manicures and Pedicures are done by removing cuticles, so nail polish can last longer. Body treatments include cellulite massages done by specialists working on the nodules helping the circulation and inflammation of the affected area. Our commitment is to have a full service salon, where customers can feel at home. We provide Brazilian services with Brazilian hospitality.

Editorial Review for Maria Bonita Salon & Spa – by Karen Hudes

The Space
The sunny space has a clean, fresh look; it's decorated with clear plastic chairs, white- and light-wood tones and is filled with the sounds of '80s soft rock. Rather than giving a full hair consultation regarding various options, the stylists simply glance at a client's hair briefly and ask what kind of cut is desired just before shampooing.

The Services
The quite personable stylists shape a great, face-flattering cut, adhering to your wishes and adding a touch or two to improve on your previous style. Straight and curly customers can both feel at ease--the salon's Brazilian owners and clientele insure that the staff understands a range of hair textures.

I've been going to Maria Bonita for about 3 years and I just love it! Maria does the best wax. She's fast, professional and precise. I highly recommend it.

I have been going to Maria Bonita for manicures and pedicures for a long time, so I want to recommend the girls, they do a great job and mani/pedi last a long time. They do just like in Brazil, so it is a little bit different but very worth it.

Pros: juliana

Cons: none
