Best Of KC: The Highlight Reel
What makes Kansas City great?
Is it Patrick Mahomes?
Is it because we’re the land of BBQ?
Maybe it’s our plethora of fountains …
Trick question. All the above paint Kansas City as unique, but pride is the true answer.
Pride in our city.
In 2015, proud Royals fans blanketed Union Station in bright blue when we won the World Series.
In 2020, proud Chiefs fans marched through downtown like kings when we won the Super Bowl.
We know every city has pride in its own, but Kansas City beats all.

AesthetiCare Voted Best Hair Removal Salon
Shaving, plucking, waxing … is there no end to the madness?!
Sure there is! It’s called laser hair removal.
A safe and effective procedure, laser hair removal permanently reduces and even eliminates unwanted hair literally anywhere (except near the eyes).
The process utilizes light to target the melanin in the hair follicle’s growth centers. From there, the light turns to heat and destroys the follicle at the source. Without that growth center, follicles cannot grow back in the treated area(s).
Typically, several laser hair removal treatments are recommended for optimum results, since hair is constantly growing, but even just a single treatment can eliminate 80% to 90% of hair in the treated areas.
The following are acceptable treatment areas for laser hair removal:
- Bikini area
- Underarms
- Legs
- Face
- Neck
- Back
- Arms
- Chest
Who is a good candidate for laser hair removal?
If you’re someone who’s tired of waxing, tweezing, shaving and all other hair removal methods, then a good candidate is YOU!
Other good candidates include any healthy adult (man or woman) who wants to remove excess hair and is prepared to undergo a series of four to eight laser treatments.
Procedure times generally vary from 15 to 60 minutes, depending on the area that’s being treated, with minimal to no downtime. Depending on the hair growth cycle, six to 12 laser treatments are recommended for maximum results, which can be seen after four to eight treatments.
What makes AesthetiCare the best at this service?
AesthetiCare was voted the best at hair removal for the following reasons:
- AesthetiCare owns four FDA-approved laser hair removal systems – so there are plenty of options.
- Your provider chooses the device that best suits your needs, indicating a wealth of knowledge and confidence.
- AesthetiCare has a highly trained staff and is a trusted brand in Kansas City.
We also offer additional options that can be utilized to make the treatment even more comfortable – such as applying numbing agents, cool air or even Pro-Nox for overly anxious clients.
AesthetiCare Voted Best Microblading / Christina
Microblading is rising in popularity – and for good reason.
For many years, the trend was having very thin eyebrows, and many suffered from over-plucking. Now, many prefer to have their brows appear thicker or darker, but trying to achieve a natural look day after day can be very tedious and time-consuming, and who wants to deal with that maintenance? Especially if you fill your eyebrows in because your natural ones are faint.
The all-day worrying if they look even or if they’re going to smudge or disappear altogether is cosmetic stress that you just don’t need in your life.
Enter microblading, stage left.
Microblading is the technique of creating natural-looking, beautiful brows through a technique known as microstroking, wherein realistic hair strokes are created.
The first step in achieving the perfect microbladed brow is drawing the perfect shape. Before the procedure begins, our permanent makeup specialist will spend time mapping your eyebrows to ensure the right shape is achieved to address asymmetry and to complement your pretty face!
You may be wondering if the specialist has to shave off your normal eyebrows before microblading. The answer is a hard no. Microblading also does not damage your natural hair. You may also be wondering if there is any pain involved. We used a medical-grade topical anesthetic cream that is applied prior to your service to help numb the treatment area and reduce discomfort.
Why is AesthetiCare the best at this service?
Christina Fraizer deserves all the love and recognition in the realm of microblading because she is the best of the best and the only talent offering this most unique service of permanent makeup.
As the winner of the Best of KC award, she deserves all the adulation that comes with such an honor.
Since a picture is worth a thousand words, check out Christina’s amazing client results here to determine if microblading is a cosmetic technique you’d be interested in pursuing.
In addition to microblading, AesthetiCare offers multiple different brow techniques, allowing our permanent makeup specialist to customize the absolute BEST brows for YOU based on your preference and skin quality.
The fact that we’re well versed in the different brow methods that are available allows us to deliver the most realistic outcome for our clients!
Christina specializes in the following brow techniques:
- Microblading is a semi-permanent technique designed to enhance the appearance of your brows. The process requires pigment to be scratched into the skin in short strokes that resemble the look of hair.
- Powder brows are a semi-permanent cosmetic technique that is designed to achieve a soft powder effect on the brow – free of the individual hair strokes that characterize microblading. Great for clients with oily skin.
- Hybrid blading, also known as “ombre brows,” is a technique that combines micropigmentation and microblading. Pigment is implanted with a digital machine deep in the skin to reveal a light, powdery appearance. It looks like a matte makeup solid or semi-solid brow, and it’s ideal for those with prior eyebrow tattoos, naturally oily skin or difficulty obtaining hair strokes.
