Heather Munger, Appassionato's owner, has been doing my hair forever! ... or at least since we went to beauty school
together nearly 20 years ago! She is wonderful and always does a great job with my hair and everyone else's.

The best facial ever! I just had the best facial ever. Very relaxing and my skin feels
great! Thank you Jerri!
Jerri Lien of Appassionato gave me my first facial as I was reviewing Appassionato for my radio show, The Tawanda
Travel Show on KLAY, and I can't tell you how wonderful it was!! Jerri put me at ease and made me feel comfortable and
truly pampered!! Appassionato is a wonderful, peaceful retreat right here in Fife! A place to go to recharge your batteries
and refresh your look! I highly, highly recommend Appassionato and Jerri Lien! I will be back!!

I attended a sweet youth party at Appassionato
last week. Their image studio is tucked back in a remodeled house off Pacific Highway in Fife. When I realized these were
some of the same ladies that had Remedy 450 (formerly located on St. Helens in Tacoma) I immediately signed up for a microdermabrasion
treatment ($115) from the list of very well-priced services. These talented ladies specialize in results-oriented skincare
that doesn’t leave out the relaxation part. Now that’s multi-tasking.
Appasionato has services for
women and men (smart guys know they need maintenance, too). Looking that closely at my face made me want new makeup
and lo and behold, they sell one of my favorite lines: Jane Iredale Mineral Makeup. Plastic surgeons trust it for women who
have undergone intense laser resurfacing. It’s light, feathery and completely made of minerals — no fake junk
here, and covers blemishes and discolorations, especially redness, like a freakin’ dream.
Appassionato offers
professional beauty services for all types of events: weddings, stage performances, lectures and super sexy vixen Halloween
parties. You can’t pull off that Pamela Anderson costume if you don’t have the Hollywood makeup to go with it.
Also offered, chemical peels, ultrasonic facials, waxing and tinting and hair services. After my abrasion session, I’m
looking into lash and brow tinting.
Have no fear, faithful readers; I’ll keep you informed with my results.

As promised, here’s the report on my microdermabrasion treatment at Appassionato Image Studio last week.
Licensed esthetician and makeup artist Lucinda Johnson (no relation to me) greeted me warmly, had me fill out some questionnaires
on my skin care and health history, then took me up to one of their quite, softly lit, relaxing rooms. I was given a super
soft robe and booties for my feet and then laid down on a heated bed under warm blankets. Lucinda explained the microdermabrasion
process in great detail to ease any concerns I may have had (I had none) and started the procedure. As expected (and informed
ahead of time), I experienced very mild prickling sensations and slight stinging that went away quickly. Lucinda kept checking
with me to be sure of my comfort level and talked to me the whole time in a soothing voice. An hour went by in a blur, and
the process finished.
I was delighted at silky, smooth skin all over my face. I could visibly see that the dullness
under my eyes and on my cheekbones was gone. I won’t say I looked years younger after a single session, but this is
definitely worth repeats. Appassionato offers package deals on multiple sessions and also offers chemical peels for the face
and body.
