Manscaping Testimonials
"My first appointment with Gil for manscaping was wonderful so I made another appointment and sure enough it was just as wonderful as the first. The surroundings are very nice and relaxing. Gils personality is so great. He will put you at ease and treat you with respect. I am now considering myself a regular. I look forward to each appointment. The hot towel treatments are out of this world! When I leave I feel and look great. I make a point to stop and get a gelato nearby. Between the wonderful treatment with Gil and the Gelato i feel like I have truly spoiled myself by the end of it all. Do yourself a favor and book an appointment."

"After noticing that I could use some trimming, I came across Gil's website. Intrigued by the range of services he offered, I decided to schedule an appointment with him. After entering his studio, I found him to be a consummate professional and very courteous and patient, as I discussed the areas that needed trimming. He took his time, made the experience comfortable and relaxing for me, and worked with me until I was completely satisfied. His rates are very reasonable, his professionalism is top-notch, his studio is meticulous, and his level of attention is amazing. It is without a doubt that I will go back for regular sessions, so I can look well-trimmed and feel sexy, as we all should feel in such a great city!"
-- Todd
"Gil did an awesome job!! His place is very clean, he's well organized with all the proper tools/lotions, and it feel like a very professional relaxed atmosphere! He's very patient, detailed, and gentle. When he was done I was trimmed/shaved and ready for the beaches in Hawai'i! He did an amazing job!! :-) "
--John C.
"I contacted Gil online, and he got right back to me, and we set up a manscaping appointment for later in the week. His rates are reasonable and he offered a full body trim, which is exactly what I needed. I'm not too hairy, but I really like to feel neat and trim. Gil takes his time to get everything exactly right, and I enjoyed the time and attention. He also wrote everything down, which will make a repeat visit that much easier. His facility was obviously well prepared, and after some chitchat, I climbed up onto his table and he went to work: arms, legs, chest, back, sack, n crack. Why isn't this service mainstream? It will be. I feel great, thanks Gil."
--Andy H.
"I loved Gil's work and it was worth every penny. As a bisexual male, I did not have any concerns going in. However, I can say that Gil was professional every second during the service. The results were amazing and it was worth it having him do it than me trying to do it. I am looking forward to future appointments."
--Michael
"Refreshed, sexy and clean. That's how I felt leaving my appointment with Gil. You will undoubtedly feel just as good after a session at SF Manscaping. An appointment with Gil begins with a no-nonsense consultation followed by very detailed grooming and ends with quality moisturizing products. All the while you will feel comfortable and relaxed. I saw Gil on Valentine's Day to get ready for a sexy night with my boyfriend. He was even more impressed with Gil's work than I was...if you know what I mean. Treat yourself, make a very cool new friend and feel great in the process. This is the real deal guys and you should take advantage of his expertise ASAP."
-- Bryan M.
"Gil was patient with me. It took two weeks for us to nail down an appointment time with my busy schedule. Then the day came and I was running late. He patiently helped me and rearranged his appointments. When I got there, his space was comfortable and his manner was pleasant. It was much more like a spa experience than I was expecting. He was professional and the quality of his work was heads above what I could do on my own. I will definitely be going back to him and have recommended him to a couple of my friends."
-- Jeff H.
"Besides the fantastic and meticulous job that Gil does with manscaping, I was most impressed with how quickly I felt comfortable and at ease with this procedure. I had never done it before and I was very nervous and anxious regarding what to expect. Upon meeting Gil I felt totally at home in his studio. I found the whole procedure very relaxing and enjoyable. I can not wait until my next visit. Thank you Gil. I’ll be back!"
-- Chris V.
"As a working professional male, I have never had my body “manscaped” before. I always cringed at the idea of taking away my masculine hair, however I have heard good things about Gil in the past and used him for my massage as well. I figured why not give it a shot right? Gil was very good at making me feel comfortable, and talking to me about what the different razors would look like. After you have trimmed your chest a bit, you feel incredibly more sexy and powerful, both in your personal life and the board room as well. I highly recommend that you try Gil’s services at least once, because it may be for you."
-- Dustin S.
"I had my first appointment at SF Manscaping and it was an excellent experience, not only is Gil professional, comfortable and skilled but he is gentle and completely respectful and educational. Like many men, I have done this service in the privacy of my own shower. Not only did I realize that given anatomy and flexibility, I am only able to accomplish so much. Gil did a fantastic job communicating and recommending what was right for me. We had a good consultation and from that I feel like I have not only gained a Manscaper but a trusted professional friend."
-- Justin G.
"Gil's manscaping is great. It's killer to have a service like this. The hair on my body grows pretty fast and keeping it trimmed is part of my normal routine. However, I do let it go from time to time. It's such a relief to know that this service is out there. Gil's manscaping service is really helpful, and one less thing I have to worry about when I'm getting ready for work or to go out. We talked about what I liked and he delivered. I was totally comfortable the whole time and left feeling awesome. I am grateful to be able to rely on Gil to help with manscaping. It's super to know that I feel confident in my appearance thanks to Gil."
-- Brian S.
"I've suddenly become very busy with two jobs, leaving no time to spare in my day. When I contacted Gil, not only was he able to accommodate my crazy schedule he saw me the same day I contacted him! I was a bit skeptical when I arrived. It's not often that I have someone manscape my privates. Upon meeting Gil, I was made at ease with his professional and friendly demeanor. Not to mention the clean, well lit environment and calming music playing in the background. Gil was so focused and efficient that he finished an entire body trim within the hour. I would definitely return."
-- Juan D.
"This was my first time having a professional man-scape. Gil was amazing! Meticulous with great attention to detail. I'm hooked for good!"
-- Dan
"I was very nervous going to Gil for the first time but he was friendly and professional and quickly put me at ease. He is genuinely disarming and makes the experience not only bearable but enjoyable. I am so grateful for his services. I never will do my own manscaping again!"
-- Allan
"Gil is a miracle worker! Very precise, professional, and personable. Gil has given me a new look that not only looks great, but feels clean and is empowering. Thanks Gil! I know I'll be returning when I need it again!"
-- Christopher B.
"I've been "man-scaping" for over 15 years. I simply feel cleaner and more hygenic down below when shaved and trimmed on a regular basis. I used two different guys where I lived before moving to San Francisco in 2005. Since living here I've had poor experiences with 5 "man-scapers". But I felt very comfortable with Gil on a number of levels. Since I'm not new to the service, I'm not easily uncomfortable with the positions and physical contact. I was totally comfortable with Gil. He's professional and easy-going. And I've had the best experience since moving to San Francisco."
-- Ken J.
"Very efficient, friendly and professional manscaping service. Painstaking attention to detail and a relaxed, comfortable atmosphere. Moreover, very flexible and reasonable rates. With such attitude-free service and competitive prices Gil's is a far preferable environment than most salons."
-- Matthew
"I've gone to Gil twice for manscaping. I will admit, it was a little awkward at first having someone so close to my intimate areas :) but Gil is a very relaxed and sweet guy. He made me feel at ease. I was in and out, quick and painless. I highly recommend for those hard to reach areas."
-- Jesse M.
"Gil is what you'd hope for in a 'manscaper': clean, professional, and polite. I will definitely have Gil freshen me up again."
-- Daniel S.
"Gil, is a perfect hedge trimmer, he delicately clipped the hedge around my member and below it. I haven't felt this hairless since puberty. Thank you Gil for making this experience painless, and easy!"
-- Evan
"I won't lie. Manscaping is a sensitive, uncomfortable thing for most guys, particularly when it involves someone else. But something about Gil made the entire process both relaxing and gratifying. Gil is a total pro -- able to put you at ease when you're at your most exposed. After my trip to his lovely home, complete with actual massage table and Michael Buble, I felt like a million bucks. Gil is a cautious perfectionist, which is exactly what you need in this situation. But more importantly, he's a warm, friendly and genuinely good guy. I'll definitely be back."
-- Jordan V.
"Gil is awesome. He has the skill and expertise to make you look and feel your very best. What I really liked was the fact that he listens to what his client wants. I left there looking clean and well groomed while still retaining a natural masculine look about it all. I would definitely recommend Gil!"
-- Jonathan R.
"A clean, comfortable environment puts you at ease. His gentle and meticulous approach leaves you feeling and looking good. I highly recommend Gil!"
-- Peter H.

-- Brian H.
"I feel clean and sexy. It's so hard to do myself!"
-- Todd
"Wow - what a difference one trip makes! Seeing Gil is such a great way to get trimmed up in all the hard to reach and difficult to see places on one's body. So unless you have a bf or gf who likes to trim your hirsuteness for fun, go see Gil and enjoy his courteous, friendly, and fastidious nature."
-- JTS
"Gil uses a gentle and attentive touch when manscaping. The experience is relaxing and satisfying and I leave each time feeling like a new person."
-- RM
"Gil introduced me to the idea of manscaping as part of my regular routine of self-care. During the session, Gil was at ease, which put me at ease. At the end of the session, it was as if Gil and I had known each other for a long time; Gil is a people person. You won't go wrong."
-- Bobby M.
"Professional and meticulous. Only when Gil is satisfied with his work, you will certainly look and feel cleaner!"
-- Yuri
"Gil is a very nice, relaxed and competent technician. He has natural ability and very skilled hands. The great products and comfortable space always make me feel like a million bucks after a trip to Gil."
-- Timothy C.
"Gil is a real professional, very gentle and thorough. He puts you at ease and does a great job."
-- Sean M.
"Getting manscaped by Gil was an extremely pleasant experience. He was very professional and the space and all equipment was clean and tidy. It was the perfect preparation for my beach vacation! Not only was it relaxing but I got the look I was going for and felt confident as ever shirtless. I would highly recommend Gil's services!"
-- Xavier H.
"Gil's services are great, even if you're skeptical, give him a try. I walked in with an open mind and it worked out great. Very easy to get along with and everything is very clean. He explained the different services he offered and made me feel comfortable. I'll be back again."
--Dave
"Gil recently did an excellent job of trimming the hair on my back and buns. The studio was well lit and clean and Gil worked me into his schedule when I had a break in my day. I look forward to going back when time allows for chest, stomach, legs and privates trim. I would highly recommend him."
--James W.
"I had never been "manscaped" before and was a bit nervous about it. Gil made me feel comfortable, talked about what I wanted, took his time, and did an EXCELLENT job. Gil is a true professional."
--Tom H.
"A sure, steady hand, the patience of a monk and a gimlet eye are requisite when carving a swath through the unruly short and curlies. Gil has all of these. Even more, the handling of such personal effects is to be entrusted on only the most respectable, professional practitioner. If you don't feel entirely at ease with Gil, then it's likely you have forgotten your meds and should seek treatment immediately. Even the most masculine, heterodox, high-octane, big-rig grease monkey would feel completely at ease with Gil doing the heavy lifting. I can highly recommend Gil to shave, pluck, trim and otherwise mow wholesale any and all evidence of hirsutism you carry on your person. You will not regret it, but bring a jacket if the pelt you arrived with was of your own making."
--Michael H.
"Hell yeah!" my girlfriend exclaimed when she saw me after my visit to SF Manscaping. She was thrilled with the results, and I was thrilled with the experience! I'm no stranger to a razor, but as a straight guy wanting to impress my girlfriend on a special occasion, I knew it was a great idea to seek the help of someone who can actually see down there. The task of finding a place to get it done was totally daunting, but I figured it had to be possible -- after all, I'm sure the dudes on the Jersey Shore go out and get their "junk did." I really wanted to find an alternative to embarrassing myself in front of an old Asian lady ripping strips of wax off my balls. Stumbling across the SF Manscaping webpage was a total godsend! The pics looked great and the testimonials all praised of Gil's professionalism and thoroughness, so I decided to give it a shot! I can't think of words strong enough to describe how amazing my experience with Gil was! His poise and genuine friendliness immediately put me at ease, and he took his time providing the best spa experience imaginable. At the end of the session I looked my best ever and felt like I had a new friend. When I left, I was beaming. It felt like walking out of a fine old-fashioned barber with a new haircut that you know looks handsomer and sexier than ever before. As for the night with my gf that followed... "Hell yeah!"

Massage Testimonials
"I had the pleasure of being worked on by Gil yesterday, and it was an amazing experience. His office is comfortable, and his manner was
amazing. I've been to many massage therapists over the years, and I'm always amazed how someone can be technically fine but lack the intuitive touch needed to be a truly great massage therapist. Gil has that intuitive touch, and worked out knots and tension I didn't even realize was there until I was left wrung out on the table! I'll definitely be going back!"
--Kevin R.
"Gil is a natural and intuitive healer who was capable of melting away my stress and muscle tension through a combination of a couple
different massage styles. He is warm, inviting, and knowledgeable, everything you'd want in a massage therapist. His rates are extremely competitive and I would highly recommend him to anybody."
--Eli O.
"Gil is a very skilled massage therapist with a strong and intuitive touch. Time flies by on Gil's table as he melts away the week's stress and tension. He's very welcoming, attentive and communicative. I can't recommend him more highly."
--Todd
"I had the wonderful opportunity to receive a barefoot shiatsu massage from Gil and I have to admit that it was one of the BEST massages I have ever received! The combination of relaxation and deep pressure to the areas of tension all added up to become a fantastic massage session. I would highly recommed this unconventional type of massage to anyone interested in specific deep pressure with shiatsu. Gil is a professional and terrific massage therapist and I definitely recommend barefoot shiatsu massage."
--Jesus A.
"Gil gives the best massages of the many I have experienced!! I am certain the reason the massages are so good is that he really seems to want to please his clients needs. He has a natural ease about him that makes me feel totally comfortable. He is also very intuitive in
what he does, sensing the right amount of pressure to use on all areas of the body. If you've not had many massages, my experience indicates Gil at "Mmmassage" is the right choice for a great experience. You will definitely want
to become a regular. Thanks Gil! ....Book me again for Thursday."
--Brandon
"Gil is a great masseur! I've had many massages by many different massage therapists, and Gil ranks toward the top of the list. He is very eager to learn what is most helpful for each client, and he creates a great experience for whatever tension or issues you may have. My favorite thing about Gil's massages is that they never feel rushed; he has actually gone over by a few minutes to make sure my body has been fully taken care of. I can't wait for my next massage!"
--Mike G.
"I've only experienced a few full-body massages, but the one I received a few hours ago was by far the best. My right shoulder blade (which is prone to knots) was extremely tense from a recent trip. After a week of long journeys on public transit and concrete, toting a heavy computer tucked inside my backpack, my shoulder muscles were very unhappy. Gil nimbly worked the pain out of my body
and deftly uncovered knots I didn't realize I even had. He used soothing oils, and had a calming demeanor throughout. The environment was extremely comforting - my massage table was heated from within, the cloths felt soft and well-made, and Gils skill at swedish massage have me looking forward to my next appointment."
--Nick W.
"Gil is amazing! I've been to him twice to relieve some stress and have come out feeling great. He is a natural, always applying just the right amount of pressure. The last time I saw him I fell asleep on his table and that evening I felt so relaxed that I slept all night long and woke up energized and ready to go."
--Miguel S.
"Gil is someone who truly enjoys and seeks to excel at his chosen profession. He is professional and accommodating and provides a great variety of services and styles of massage. He follows up with his clients to see how they are feeling days later. Great service and he makes you feel he really cares about you."
--Jason B.
"To say that Gil’s massage is relaxing would not do it justice, it is pure bliss. From the start of it you can feel the tension seeping out of your muscles and body. By the time Gil was done with my upper back, I could notice the sharp contrast between my relaxed upper body, and my tensed up lower body. His work is truly magnificent, and I will definitely be going back for more. I highly recommend him for first timer's and those who have had much experience with masseuses’ before."
--Dustin S.
"I was definitely relaxed when I got home and slept very well. I was kind of in a daze for a while and my roommate said I looked like i just had a great massage. The massage was great, a good amount of pressure, relaxed pace and a inviting and warm atmosphere. I also liked your choice of music, much better than the usual new age stuff that you have to listen to. I'll definitely be back for another massage in the next
few weeks. Thanks again!"

"This was one of the most pleasant experiences that I have had in a long time. First let me say that this is a truly warm caring individual who is totally client focused. The massage was held in a clean, nicely decorated studio with music. Directions were clear and concise and the studio was easy to find. This massage addressed all area of the body and was done with deep strokes and firm pressure. The whole massage had a very intimate flavor to it which made it very relaxing. No clock watcher here just a warm caring individual who delivers a great massage. Meeting all of the clients needs. I totally recomend Gil."
--Terry
"Time is lost when on the table under Gil's skillful hands as you are immersed completely in the massage. Tension and stress are whisked away and you are left feeling like yourself again."
--Kevin L.
"Gil is a natural healer. He is intuitive, strong, steady and thorough. His strokes come straight from his heart and I leave each time feeling like I got a whole new body. He knows what I have needed every session, even if I didn't. Somehow he identifies what area of the body I need him to work on and then my drive home always makes me appreciate whatever he has done on me that day. He's a definitely a treasure to the
field."
--Robert F.
"Gil was great. He is intuitive, strong, consistent and thorough. His strokes come straight from the heart and I left feeling relaxed, centered and balanced."
--Pete
"I work outside in the trades and build up plenty of stress in my back and legs. The massage from Gil was both theraputic for the muscle tightness and relaxing. He has an even touch that is intense when needed, but tailored to which area of the body he is working on. The studio is inviting, clean and nice. I appreciated the heated pad/blanket and warm oil. Very nice. I'll be back. Thanks!"
--Scott
"Thanks Gil for the stress relieving relaxing massage. The 30 minute massage felt as if I received a full hour treatment. Your caring hands put just the right pressure to melt away my sore muscles. I'm ready to start the next session."
--Vince
"Gil creates a warm and relaxed environment every time I've made a visit. I had a professional massage for a birthday present and can honestly say Gil's was much better. Make your appointment asap it's well worth it! Relax and enjoy!"
--Brian R.
"I was so relaxed it was really an amazing massage."
--Kevin J.
"Massage is something I scare away from. Gil's approach to massage is beautiful. The consultation is a friendly conversation among friends. That is the feeling I get when we talk. The pressure is right and the calming atmosphere is amazing."
--Ernesto M.
"Gil makes you feel very comfortable from the start. He gives a very relaxing massage. I will be going back."
--Richard
"If you want a deep and relaxing experience you must visit Gil. I'm not a big spa type of guy--I found my spa visits to be overpriced and mediocre, but Gil is the best! His hands provide a warm sense of healing, which comes natural. Not only is he very professional, he's very warm and inviting. I no longer live in SF, but look forward to visiting and scheduling another visit."
--Jose
"I can really appreciate a relaxing and therapeutic massage. Gil has definitely struck a balance between the long, soothing strokes and the focused muscle work that releases the tension in knotted muscles. My hour long massage felt like a ninety minute massage! He could feel the knots in my neck, back and glutes and went to work. My only suggestion is that I would have liked to have experience
what his techniques are for the front of the body. I'll definitely be back for more!"
--Randy M.
"Gil has a very natural ability and a soothing touch. I enjoy his friendly personality and his comfortable home. I always leave feeling in a very relaxed mood."
--Tim C.
"Gil brings you into his space with a calm presence. He automatically puts you at ease with understanding and patience. He is responsive to your needs while listening to everything you have to say. There is a tremendous comfort and ease in his quiet space and he works
to maintain that serenity every time. Gil is attentive to the areas you request and respectful of your preferences while keeping in mind the need to approach the body holistically. He is comfortable and intuitive while also being thoughtful and aware of specific needs. His follow-up is tremendous as well and you'll be be eager to return when you're ready to do so."
--Kevin N.
amazing. I've been to many massage therapists over the years, and I'm always amazed how someone can be technically fine but lack the intuitive touch needed to be a truly great massage therapist. Gil has that intuitive touch, and worked out knots and tension I didn't even realize was there until I was left wrung out on the table! I'll definitely be going back!"
--Kevin R.
"Gil is a natural and intuitive healer who was capable of melting away my stress and muscle tension through a combination of a couple
different massage styles. He is warm, inviting, and knowledgeable, everything you'd want in a massage therapist. His rates are extremely competitive and I would highly recommend him to anybody."
--Eli O.
"Gil is a very skilled massage therapist with a strong and intuitive touch. Time flies by on Gil's table as he melts away the week's stress and tension. He's very welcoming, attentive and communicative. I can't recommend him more highly."
--Todd
"I had the wonderful opportunity to receive a barefoot shiatsu massage from Gil and I have to admit that it was one of the BEST massages I have ever received! The combination of relaxation and deep pressure to the areas of tension all added up to become a fantastic massage session. I would highly recommed this unconventional type of massage to anyone interested in specific deep pressure with shiatsu. Gil is a professional and terrific massage therapist and I definitely recommend barefoot shiatsu massage."
--Jesus A.
"Gil gives the best massages of the many I have experienced!! I am certain the reason the massages are so good is that he really seems to want to please his clients needs. He has a natural ease about him that makes me feel totally comfortable. He is also very intuitive in
what he does, sensing the right amount of pressure to use on all areas of the body. If you've not had many massages, my experience indicates Gil at "Mmmassage" is the right choice for a great experience. You will definitely want
to become a regular. Thanks Gil! ....Book me again for Thursday."
--Brandon
"Gil is a great masseur! I've had many massages by many different massage therapists, and Gil ranks toward the top of the list. He is very eager to learn what is most helpful for each client, and he creates a great experience for whatever tension or issues you may have. My favorite thing about Gil's massages is that they never feel rushed; he has actually gone over by a few minutes to make sure my body has been fully taken care of. I can't wait for my next massage!"
--Mike G.
"I've only experienced a few full-body massages, but the one I received a few hours ago was by far the best. My right shoulder blade (which is prone to knots) was extremely tense from a recent trip. After a week of long journeys on public transit and concrete, toting a heavy computer tucked inside my backpack, my shoulder muscles were very unhappy. Gil nimbly worked the pain out of my body
and deftly uncovered knots I didn't realize I even had. He used soothing oils, and had a calming demeanor throughout. The environment was extremely comforting - my massage table was heated from within, the cloths felt soft and well-made, and Gils skill at swedish massage have me looking forward to my next appointment."
--Nick W.
"Gil is amazing! I've been to him twice to relieve some stress and have come out feeling great. He is a natural, always applying just the right amount of pressure. The last time I saw him I fell asleep on his table and that evening I felt so relaxed that I slept all night long and woke up energized and ready to go."
--Miguel S.
"Gil is someone who truly enjoys and seeks to excel at his chosen profession. He is professional and accommodating and provides a great variety of services and styles of massage. He follows up with his clients to see how they are feeling days later. Great service and he makes you feel he really cares about you."
--Jason B.
"To say that Gil’s massage is relaxing would not do it justice, it is pure bliss. From the start of it you can feel the tension seeping out of your muscles and body. By the time Gil was done with my upper back, I could notice the sharp contrast between my relaxed upper body, and my tensed up lower body. His work is truly magnificent, and I will definitely be going back for more. I highly recommend him for first timer's and those who have had much experience with masseuses’ before."
--Dustin S.
"I was definitely relaxed when I got home and slept very well. I was kind of in a daze for a while and my roommate said I looked like i just had a great massage. The massage was great, a good amount of pressure, relaxed pace and a inviting and warm atmosphere. I also liked your choice of music, much better than the usual new age stuff that you have to listen to. I'll definitely be back for another massage in the next
few weeks. Thanks again!"
