The Extract Lab - Ladera Ranch

I have been going to Sherri for many years! She is kind, professional, and I always leave feeling confident. I started out just getting my brows waxed and tinted, but she has educated me so much on my skin and has helped me with some much needed self care. I have done derma-planing and facials with her now too! Every experience is a fabulous one. She is the absolute best and I couldn't recommend her more. Her salon is clean and relaxing making it the ultimate self care experience!!

I cannot recommend The Extract Lab more! I have been going to Sherri for about 5 years for my eyebrows. She is extremely professional and will go above and beyond to get you Scheduled. Her studio is clean, calming and super welcoming. Her attention to detail is unreal. She listens and masters the shape and the overall look you prefer. If you are picky about your brows this is the place!

I highly recommend this spot. I've been seeing Sherri for a couple of years. She's the only that touches my face. Not only is she very knowledgeable about chemical peels and facials but she's also very sweet and attentive to my needs. Her room is always neat and welcoming. I always look forward to my appointments with her. I can confidently say that I no longer feel the need to wear layers of make up, Sherri not only transformed my skin but brought back my confidence.

I've been a loyal client of Sherri's since Nov. 2022, and I can't express how grateful I am for her. From the moment I walked into her spa, I knew I was in good hands. It has been a constant battle with hormonal acne for years, and it was time to see a professional. Her expertise and personal approach has healed my skin! Sherri takes the time to carefully tailor each treatment to my specific needs. Having clearer skin has boosted my confidence and self-esteem. Every visit, I'm welcomed by Sherri's warm and bubbly personality. I look forward to it every time!! If you're looking for someone struggling with skin issues, Sherri truly cares for your skin's health. Thank you, thank you

My mom, sister & I have all been coming to The Extract Lab for our facials for the last 10 years! She is extremely knowledgeable and her certifications reflect that. We love that Sherri customizes each of our services since we all have different skin. She is super patient when explaining the importance of applying the correct skincare products! FYI: This isn't your relaxing facial, it's a REAL facial with REAL extractions with a medical grade professional! My skin has looked amazing ever since. I plan to visit every 1-2 months now.

I hesitated to write this as it is already hard to get an appointment with Sheri. Sherri is professional, caring and knowledgeable. I have been seeing Sherri for awhile. I enjoy her facials so much. My face feels super clean and fresh. Each facial is customized to the needs of your skin. Her salon is peace and calming. Needless to say, I look and feel better with Sherri in my world.

Sherri has taken care of my skin for 10+ years. She is very thorough and gives my skin just what it needs to feel youthful and clean! Sherri has great knowledge on what she does and im so grateful for her services i highly recommend having her take care of your skin needs!

I have been getting my skin cared for by Sheri for the past 3yrs, and since I have found the perfect match for my skin I will never go elsewhere! She is so experienced, educated and skilled and I trust her to do whatever she thinks my skin needs! I always walk out feeling like my skin is renewed! I also love all her products she has been able to provide for me to care for my skin in-between my routine 4 week appointment. If you want your skin to look and feel great I highly suggest the Extract Lab! Thank you Sheri for taking such great care of my skin

I have been going to Sherri for a few years now and she is amazing. Professional, knowledgable, friendly - checks all the boxes. I get my eyebrows done and have a facial every time and I LOVE my time with her! She even caters to my love of Hawaiian music while I am there - warm and cozy vibe. Having spent a lot of time in the sun growing up and in my professional life, I feel confident that Sherri is taking good care of my sun damaged skin. I wouldn't go to anyone else!

Sherri is one of a kind. I am super picky about facial and eyebrow services and she does it all with extreme precision and care. She customizes everything to your skin's needs. My face tends to skew blotchy and has a ton of redness.. well I went to a dermatologist a few years back and they prescribed me RX topical creams.. my face has looked BETTER with the solutions Sherri has provided me than it did under the care of a highly regarded local dermatologist. I haven't stuck with anyone this long ever and it goes to show just how special Sherri's services and care have been for me over the years. Not only are her services and product great but she has an absolute heart of gold and such a sweet individual. You will never find anyone like Sherri! She is such an honest soul and never oversells or over promises. I would absolutely recommend her services and products to anyone!

My girlfriend has been going to Sherri for years, and Sherri is VERY welcoming, educated, and friendly. Amazing results every time!!!! She does not trust anyone else with her eyebrow's

Sherry is amazing, meticulous and explains what she is doing and why. Her recommendations of which products to use for your skin care are spot on!! She has made an incredible difference in my teenage daughters skin and in mine as well. In addition to this she is kind and has an absolutely lovely personality! I highly recommend her services.

When I first went to Sherri I had tried many other estheticians and none have given me the results I was looking for. I would have never thought that my skin could look the way it does now. I love how Sherri customizes the treatment based upon what your skin needs at the moment. Beyond that, she is such a nice person and makes me feel really comfortable. She has given me confidence in my skin I have never had, and I have actually started getting compliments on my skin which I have never before. She also set me up with a new skincare routine which I can tell has made such a difference. She truly strives to get your skin looking and feeling healthy. I'm so thankful I discovered her.

Sherri is amazing! I started going to Sherri for my eyebrows and waxing, which turned into facials for myself and my teenage son. She is thorough, super clean, knowledgeable and has such a kind heart. My face glows when I leave her and her products are great! I will never go to another esthetician!!

I have been a client of Sherri's for almost 4 years now! And there's a reason i keep coming back!! When i first found her, she responded to me almost immediately. I had never been waxed before so she walked me through the process, just as she was about to pull the first strip she asked me what i do for work to distract me LOL and it worked !!! She offers so many services and she's the sweetest person ever! Every time i come in for an appointment she always asks me about my life and she always remembers what we talked about last! Which is so amazing and thoughtful because to be honest, i forget all the things i tell her so it's nice to know someone remembers i could go on and on about how wonderful she is and the amazing job she always does! I will never stop coming to her !!! Thank you for being the best Sherri!

Sherri is great, makes you feel comfortable! Space is clean, convenient and private! If you're looking for a great waxer, she does an amazing job! I appreciate your humor as well as your professional mannerism and expertise!

Sherri knows what she's doing! My skin looks a bazillion times better after my first treatment. I did the microdermabrasion facial and she's very skilled. I won't lie... the extractions were painful. But insanely effective! Run... don't walk to make an apt with Sherri!

Before getting facial by Sherri, I had non-stop acne on my forehead, which resulted in a lot of hyperpigmentation. I went in for a consultation and she recommended microdermabrasion + extraction to get rid of the dead skin and clogged pores. My skin has improved so much after the facial. The extraction did hurt a bit but she warned me. Her extraction was really effective, not the kind that inflames your acne further. However, I still have hyperpigmentation from my old breakouts. Sherri recommended me the Obagi Blue Peel Radiance, which is a mix of salicylic acid, lactic acid, and glycolic acid to get rid of unwanted skin damage. It's been almost a week after the chemical peel and my skin is so much better. My skin is brighter and less oily, thus tighter pores. I'm so happy with my results and plan to get a few more peels to get rid of my discoloration. Please don't do at home peels and actually go to a professional who knows what they are doing! Sherri is so knowledgeable and friendly. She doesn't make me feel pressure to purchase her products. She will read the ingredient list and tell me to keep using mine if they are really good. Her spa is small, but very clean and professional. I highly recommend Sherri if you are looking for a trustworthy esthetician. The treatments and facials are reasonably-priced and they works. Think of it as an investment for yourself. If you invest in your skin early, it would pay back in the long run.

Stacey C. I feel like a million when I get my facials. I've been getting facials from Sherri for over a year now and I wouldn't go to anyone else. I have had dermabrasion, threading, peels, and other restorative treatments. I let Sherri decide what my face needs. As one of Sherri's more elder clients she has worked hard removing my browns spots, wrinkles, crows feet and shrinking my pores are all disappearing like magic. I love my facials. I walk in stressed and come out feeling like I'm on a cloud. My skin has never felt or looked so good. I now have a wonderful esthetician and a terrific friend. Thank you friend.

You can tell Sherri is experienced and truly skilled at what she does. I've gone to her for facials and waxing. She's super thorough and her work is effective. She also uses really good quality products and her prices are more than reasonable. Never going to a corporate facial/wax center again!!! Highly recommended.

I have been getting chemical peels and facials every month for a few years now. I came to Sherri and after one treatment of microdermabrasion and extractions I see an immediate improvement in my skin. The cleansing and microdermabrasion didn't hurt. The extractions were uncomfortable but not unbearable. Sherri saw me a week before my first appointment for a consultation so she could customize the facial. Very knowledgeable and friendly.

My experience with Sherri was perfect in every respect. She is naturally friendly and easily relaxes the customer. She took the time to learn my particular needs were and then she customized her services to match. Her methods are very skillful, everything felt very gentle and the results were amazing. I only used her for a specific service but I can tell from her approach that any service she would provide would be successful. I highly recommend Sherri and The Extract Lab.

Sherri is great! Very personable and does not make your visit awkward. I been going to her for a few months now. She does my waxing, in the near future I will try a facial.

This is my 2nd time coming to Sherri I was referred to her by a friend to get the Brazilian wax, I was really nervous given that it was my first time getting a wax. Sherri is so professional and kind she made me feel so comfortable and was very honest about the process and helped bring my nerves down she kept the conversation going for a distraction and I really appreciated that. she is very detailed oriented so I couldn't ask for better services ill keep on coming back. I am really happy with the service that she provides and I like that I can text her to set up an appointment. thank you, Sherri. I really do recommend her.

Sherri is absolutely amazing! It was my first time getting any type of facial or extractions ever and she was extremely informative and made me feel so comfortable. Yes, the reviews are true... the extractions hurt! But it is so worth it! She is very attentive to how you're feeling. This is no a fluff facial, she left my skin look B E A UTIFUL!!! Needless to say, she's got a new client for life!

You will Love your results and you will Love Sherri! I was referred to her and I'm so happy I was, I don't trust anyone else with my face. She takes the time to go over everything with you. She makes sure you are comfortable. Throughout the process she checks on you to make sure you're ok. Her extraction process is amazing and she's a perfectionist! She cleans my face so so good! The microdermabrasion is excellent and cleans face even more. She takes her time and helps you with any face product questions and even answers through text message if you send ingredients list to her to give you her professional suggestion on the product! You won't waste your money and you'll gain a friend and facial expert forever!

Sherri is an incredible esthetician. She spent time at the beginning of the appointment going over my skin's history, explained what she thinks would work best, and made sure I was comfortable the whole time. I've had acne all my life and now suffer from acne scars -- Sherri identified how dehydrated my skin was and we did a microdermabrasion. She answered all my questions fully and even helped me with finding new skincare. I can't stress enough how kind, thoughtful, and knowledgeable Sherri is. Not only that, my skin started looking amazing after my facial -- reduced redness, my skin feels hydrated, and great texture. I can't wait for my next facial! Would recommend Sherri to everyone looking for a trustworthy esthetician!

Sherri is the best!! 4 or 5 years ago I was looking for a new eyebrow person and came across Sherri on yelp. She had great reviews so I decided to give her a shot. I have never looked back. Not only does she do a flawless job on my brows, she is also one of the sweetest people I've ever known. I have also had several facials with her. If you're looking for someone new, give her a try. You won't be disappointed.

Thank you so much for all your help, I left looking like a shiny new Penny. I appreciate the last minute appointment I was able to get and I am looking forward to having great looking skin again. My acne is such a downer and you gave me hope so thank you a million times!!

Sherri has done my waxing and facials for over 5 years and is amazing! She is the only person I trust with anything esthetician related. So personable, warm, and knowledgeable! Highly recommend her services!

Amazing! Love this place! Sherri is great. She is the only one that go to for my eyebrow care.

Sherri is great, I highly recommend her services! I love how she customizes your facial based on your skin type and objective

I have been going to Sherri for my eyebrows, waxing, and facials RELIGIOUSLY for the past 10 years and she nothing short of AMAZING. I drive out to see her every other Thursday from Pasadena! It is about a 40 minute drive just for eyebrows, upper lip, chin, and Brazilian (which I get done once a month). I am definitely a picky pain in the ass, but Sherri knows exactly how I like things done. I used to work for MAC Cosmetics and anyone who works in the MAC world knows that eyebrows are everything! While eyebrows are "sisters, never twins," Sherri has a natural ability to make eyebrows look like twins!! I have been to a few other threading places, but I always end up coming home upset because they forgot to tweeze a few straggly hairs, my eyebrows were not at all symmetrical, etc. I would call Sherri crying and she would always find a way to fix things. We slowly grew my eyebrows back, but it was done strategically; I was not at all tempted to pick up tweezers and tweeze the hairs myself. Additionally, Sherri also waxes my upper lip and chin, but always goes back over with thread to make sure all of the hair is gone. One would think that threading on the face would be painful, but she has such a delicate hand and is always very careful considering I am a big baby when it comes to pain! As for my Brazilian, she is extremely thorough and TAKES HER TIME. I have had nightmares with other people doing my Brazilian. They would not go back and tweeze the straggly hairs; they would just wax what they could. Whatever is left on you, is what will be left on you! Sherri is the complete opposite. She will go back and thread and tweeze to make sure that no hair has been left behind. Again, she has a delicate hand and it isn't too painful. If you tell her to "catch the pain," it definitely hurts less ;) Overall, Sherri is wonderful. If Yelp offered 10 stars, I would definitely give her 11. She creates a warm, comfortable, and inviting environment which is vital while pampering yourself. More importantly, Sherri's sanitary practices are impeccable which is ALWAYS reassuring. I would HIGHLY recommend Sherri! In the 10 years I have been seeing her, she has been fantastic! Her work is phenomenal and she is such a sweetheart. You will not be disappointed! :)

If I could give Shora 10 stars I would! I called Sherri to make an appointment and left a message. She called me back RIGHT AWAY. I mentioned to her my wedding was coming up (less than 5 days) and was hoping to get waxed. It was my first time and I was so nervous. Sherri was so friendly and sweet I instantly felt comfortable. She scheduled me in right away! I was amazed. I was unfortunately unable to go in the day she was IN but she assured me I would be taken good care of by her assistant Shora. A little insight about me (I didn't know anything about waxing and had shaven a little before the appointment so the hair was a bit too short to work with but Sherri said they would do everything they could) And they DID! Shora was A M A Z I N G! She made me feel so comfortable, even in the most awkward positions haha she was wonderful! I was so afraid at first and I'm so happy I did it!! I'm even taking my sister with me next time! She worked so hard making sure I was comfortable, taken care of, and ready to go for my wedding day & honeymoon. I left SO happy I gave her a big hug! She was very detailed and made sure I was okay the whole time. I left feeling so satisfied and happy. It never really occurred to me that a complete stranger was waxing me downstairs, that's how great she was. They are so clean! I was very pleased:) I am a big yelper. I yelp EVERYTHING before I step foot in. I am so happy I found them:) Also, they even do eyebrow threading!! I had gone to zibas a day before and Shora had noticed that they didn't trim them so she did it for me!! She left them looking WAY better than they were the day I left Zibas!! I'm definitely doing my eyebrows here next time! Worth every penny and even more! Thank you so much Sherri for setting this up and Shora for being so great! I'll be seeing you in 4-6 weeks If you're thinking about getting anything done, CALL SHERRI AND SET UP AN APPOINTMENT! You will NOT be disappointed!

I have only recently been getting any sort of waxing and as I am a poor, newly married girl, I of course went somewhere dirt cheap. I thought they did an okay job with my Brazilian since I had no other experience and was paying next to nothing, but nothing ever looked right and it was like I hadn't even gone a week later. I was discussing this with my friend and she was appalled by what I was telling her. It's in a back closet, she asks me? They tell you to come back every 2/3 weeks for a Brazilian, she says? No way. You need to see Sherri. So I save up my money to go...and now I budget out for it. Sherri is so amazing! I hadn't had anything to compare the first place to before, but now I'm absolutely disgusted by the conditions and how unsanitary the place was! They did not have any sort of advise for me other than to ice after, but no advice about the hair cycle or timeline for when to come back. They also didn't take the time to even look to make sure they got everything. Just slap the wax, pull it out, out the door. You will never get an experience like this with Sherri. Sherri's workroom is always spotless and warm so you aren't so uncomfortable. She is incredibly professional and puts your needs above everything! Your worries, concerns, questions, whatever you need she explains everything thoroughly and takes the time to make you comfortable with everything. I was terrified in the beginning, but now I look forward to going every 5/6 weeks and getting so much value for my money. She is also very open to your schedule and came in super early on a Saturday so I could taken care of before I did a Christmas boudoir shoot for my husband. I absolutely recommend her to anyone, particularly those who are new to the experience or are tired of not being taken care of properly. Thank you for everything, Sherri! See you Thursday!

I called Sherri earlier in the week to make an appointment the same week. She totally made an effort to squeeze me in her already booked schedule. I was leaving for a weekend trip so it was important to get my Brazilian wax done. I arrived on time to my appointment and Sherri had an emergency and one of the ladies in the salon told me they are not sure when Sherri will be in. So I decided to leave and wait for her call. Of course Sherri called me 15 minutes later and explained to me what happened, she didn't cancel on me or the rest of her appointments! I was already home but I was so happy she asked me to go back. The best part of her location is she is up the street from my work so it was convenient and local. SERVICE WAS THE BOMB!! Sherri was very professional and had a great conversation with her. She loves what she does and even on her worst days I can tell she loves her customers and gives her all in her profession. She also was able to thread my eyebrows after my Brazilian wax... both my wax and eyebrows came out grrrreat. Definitely seeing Sherri again.

Had my very first microdermabrasion EVER by Sherri and let me tell you.. my skin has never looked better. I suffer from acne here and there and never expected to see so much from the extractions. My skin feels like it can actually breath and can definitely see it clearing up after one visit. I'm not one to write reviews but her patience, knowledge, and kindness really made me want to leave this review.. my results were AMAZING. Definitely coming back for more treatments!

Sherri takes such care with all her clients, and she delivers results! My skin has never looked and felt better, and she is a perfectionist at everything. I can't recommend her enough.

Sherri is amazing--the reviews are all true! I came to see her shortly before my wedding and her work/ service far exceeded my expectations. This woman knows what she's doing! She put me at ease and we were laughing throughout the appointment. I don't usually laugh while someone is inflicting pain on me. Sherri really prepares you for what to expect. She is so clean and careful with her waxing. Plus, her personality is very sweet and personable :) I am so glad I found her--thanks, Yelpers!

After unremarkable and HORRIFIC experiences trying other places, I decided to give Sherri a try based on her high reviews. Well, it's been three years now and she's still my go to lady for my Brazilian waxing needs :) She is professional yet friendly and welcoming, so I felt at ease the first time I went to her, and every time since. These are traits you'd want from someone performing that kind of service! She is very thorough in her work, so I always feel confident after every appointment, and that kind of consistency is so hard to find!

Sherri is a twin and I've had her sister Shora, too. Both ladies are phenomenal! They are friendly and make you forget about any pain! They take their time to make sure everything is the way you want it, and I am so glad I found them on yelp! Highly recommend!

I can't say enough about Sherri!! She knows her business and I have seen such a change in my skin!! I have had 2 treatments done by her and the results are incredible. She really cares about her clients. When I had my first treatment, she had me send pictures for a few days post treatment to make sure my results were the best possible. She takes her time to really evaluate your skin, asks lots of questions and has tons of advice and experience. I also had a lot of questions and she always had answers and suggestions for me. I have completely changed my skin care products.0 I highly recommend her, if I could give her 10 Stars, I would! She has a great energy about her and I look forward to my appointments. You won't be disappointed!!

Sherri has such a delightful personality. She's warm, friendly, knowledgeable, thoughtful, and really cares! My daughter and I both had our first brow threading treatment and she made us super comfortable and we were delighted with the results!! We would not hesitate to refer her! Thank you Sherri!!

+20 if possible!! Amazing person Her, She managed to make my eyebrows perfectly . SHERRI IS GREAT AT WHAT SHE DOES makes her services fun and pain less. . She Catches the Pain when Waxing amd Loves to Goof around ..I won't ever Change Sheri

I've known Sherri for over 22 years, she's been my mothers personal esthetician since i was young. I usually get a light acid peel / microderm / and medical grade extractions. She is very gentle and nurturing to the touch! My face looks so great with her handling all my Skin Care. I recommend her to everyone i know. Her prices are great too !!!

Sherri is amazing! My daughter and I see Sherri for our eyebrows and facials. She has helped repair and and shape our eyebrows. We had a bad experience elsewhere with our eyebrows ( they were waxed extremely thin) we thought they would never be the same. Sherri truly listened to what we wanted and did just that. After a facial with Sherri our face looks and feels amazing and smooth. Her hands work wonders. We Are so thankful to have found her.

Sherri has helped my skin improve so much from acne and discoloration. The results of her facials have been like night and day compared to the other facials I've had in the past. I was so amazed by the improvement of my skin that after my 3rd facial, I've switched out 90% of my face products and will only use the ones I buy from her. Although they are a bit pricey, they're more than worth it since they last forever and are so effective. If you want to get a facial that will give you clear and lasting results, then I highly recommend you see Sherri.

We all need Sherri in our life! She is the best thing to ever happen to me and my skin. When you come to Sherri she looks at your skin and does what she thinks is needed for it. She is the best at extractions. I will say it's not one of those relaxing facials that you will be getting. It's Sherri getting in there and getting all that blockage out of your pores and making your skin glow at the end of the day. She is so knowledgeable and checks up on you after she sees you. I had a peel last time I saw her and she was making sure I took pictures everyday to see my progress and to see how my skin was after, she really cares about her clients. She is so fun to talk to too while you're with her. I swear I feel like I've known her for years and I just feel amazing inside and out after seeing her. She was recommended to me by a friend and I have to say about four other people I know go to her because she is that good! Sherri is your girl if you want that flawless glowing skin!

I can't even begin to tell anyone how thankful I am that I found Sherri! She deserves 5 stars in absolutely everything: personality, comfort-ability, her Brazilian waxing, her waxing etiquette, explanation of the best aftercare- you name it. I've been to a number of waxing places all over Orange County (Fullerton, Brea, Cerritos, Irvine, Tustin, etc) and have been getting Brazilian waxing and threading for over 7 years now; and I have yet to come across a better wax, better results, and a better personality/overall experience than Sherri. She is one of the hardest and most genuine workers I've come across and truly loves what she does- maybe because she's so damn good at it, I'd love my job too! I found her on Yelp as a last minute necessity before a Vegas trip for my birthday, and called her the day before I was leaving, having forgotten all about making an appointment at my (at the time) usual place. After I called and left a voicemail, she called me within only about 3 minutes and was able to fit me in. Her pricing is so reasonable, she handles every little pesky hair on you, and handles it all with such care that the waxed/threaded area is not irritated or anything. I know people that have had issues in the past with wax irritation from cheap wax or ingrown hairs, and my friends have said that she is the absolute best, uses quality wax, and their skin has never looked or felt smoother- and I have to agree 100%. She knows what she's doing in regards to skincare. It's so annoying when you pay $65+ for a Brazilian and there's still hair, but I have never experienced that with Sherri. And on another note, by eyebrows have never looked more bangin' all thanks to her- get compliments on them all the time! SO thankful for her, you will NOT regret going to Sherri. She's a darling.
