Joanna Linaris, NWI Esthetician

If you are reading this thank you so much for taking the time to browse my website! My name is Joanna and I’m the owner of Skin by Jo, I have been in the esthetic industry for 7 years now and decided to go solo in March 2023. This industry is forever growing and I am so lucky to be on this ride and always learning.

After spending a few years in college going back and forth on what I wanted to do, my mind was always pushing me to pursue my interest in skincare and helping others feel confident in their own skin. I completed my esthetic training at G Skin and Beauty in Oakbrook, IL and have since continued to expand my knowledge and skills through various training courses. I am dedicated to staying up to date with the latest trends, techniques, and products in the industry to provide my clients with the best possible treatments and results. I pride myself on my ability to connect with clients, to create a warm and welcoming environment, and building trust and long lasting relationships with my clients.

I can’t thank my clients enough for believing in me, you are the reason I was able to branch out and spread my wings to do my own thing; and to all my new clients - I can’t wait for you to give me the opportunity to start this journey with you!
