Let me first say that I would've given 5 starts except Tina cheated me out of my money. When I scheduled the appointment, she agreed to honor the $125 groupon offer for the couples massage. When I checked out, she claimed that it was a misunderstanding & charged me $250 ($125 for each of us). I was thoroughly disappointed and saddened to be cheated. However, the massage, facial and foot scrub was very relaxing but I will not return. I do not honor & support liars or thieves. read more

I called this morning to book an appointment for myself and my friend for her birthday. Whoever answered the phone was very rude. She answers saying "hello" and didn't even specify that I was calling a business. I asked "is this about you day spa in north park or do I have a wrong number" and she replied "ya". Rude and short- and still didn't clarify anything. I said "so this is the spa" she said "ya". I said " I was hoping I could make an appointment I saw that you have a groupon" she replied "ya". So I said " you know what never mind you're not helpful at all and your just rude." I cannot believe the lack of customer service. If you're going to assign someone the job of answering the phone then make sure they are personable because you have not only lost valuable business but you've earned yourself an awful review. By putting out a groupon I would guess that you are trying to generate buzz about your company or drive business- you've definitely generated buzz but not in a good sense whatsoever. We have now spent over 300 dollars at another spa to pamper ourselves today. Sorry for your loss. I hope that whoever manages this business will take action to prevent this from happening to future clients or potential clients. read more

I found this place when I moved to the neighborhood. I loved it because the spa pedicure were 15. I came in yesterday to find out that they have added a new owner. They were having a grand opening with food and drinks. Everyone is always so nice. They have increase there services but the prices have changed. This place is a hidden find. Always been able to get in the same day for services read more

Went to this place about 4 months ago. My girlfriend and I were having a bad day, so we looked through the reader and found this place. I have to admit that we got a good deal... I believe at the time it was $125 for a 50 min massage, 50 min facial, and spa mani/pedi. The only thing that saved this place place from getting a lower rating was the massage.. that was pretty damn awesome!!! The ambiance of each individual room was nice, however the outside patio was a bit nasty... lots of flies. read more

This place doesn't look like much from the street, but it's nice inside! The pedicure massage chairs are great and I like the patio with the fountain. It's also really hard to beat the prices. I got a full hour-long mani-pedi for $25, which included a foot and leg massage and sugar scrub. My boyfriend got a haircut from the husband of the woman doing my mani-pedi and he's told me multiple times how happy he is with it. He's really picky about his haircuts, so that was a high compliment! I recommend calling ahead to schedule because they tend to only have a few people on staff at any given time, but they have always been able to get me in the same day. read more

I can walk through two parking lots to get to this place so that is a bonus. It is a nice place and the owners are really sweet. The massage was okay, maybe I just got accustomed to my massage therapist that moved, but it just was not deep enough for me. read more

Oh dear. Very sweet people but a strange and dirty place. I came for a waxing. She actually got wax in my hair!

Super relaxing! Owner very nice and usually easy to book. The facility is clean, convinient and they are open late!

Quick eyebrow and upper lip wax. No wait and they took me right in. Super cheap - $8 for eyebrows and $5 for upper lip. Not the most thorough wax - I went home and spent a few min cleaning up the parts she missed. But overall worth the price - can't beat $8 in Southern California for an eyebrow wax! read more

I will start my review with a disclaimer that i live in north park and can walk to this place from my house which adds a star. I have only been here to get manis/pedis and eyebrow waxing, but they also do skin treatments, massages and hair services. The employees are friendly and professional and the place is,clean, which is more than i can say for any of the other nail places i have tried in the area. Also, I have been there about 10 times and have never had to wait more than 5 minutes. I have received services from several different employees there, including the owner and all have been great. Their services are reasonably priced too, about $30 for spa mani and pedi and $15 for brow wax, plus they have monthly specials. read more

Great pedi! Small place; only three pedicure chairs, but great if you are sick of those factory / assembly line like settings... Here, it was quiet and relaxing. The staff was incredibly polite, professional and accommodating. Reasonable prices and nice atmosphere. Spa also provides massages and facials, plus several hairstylist chairs. Totally recommend! read more

Favorite place to get a pedi & a shellac mani. Super friendly and I can always get an appointment the same day I call. There is parking on Grim Ave in the alley. read more

Went here for a pedicure...which was only $15! She did a really good job, and it certainly didn't seem rushed or lower in quality given how cheap it was. Will definitely be back! read more

Ok... where do I begin? Here goes: Parking is a joke. Do not allow Google Maps to give you directions, they are wrong. AND the place doesn't have very good signs and is tucked away in a corner, so it is pretty hard to find. Onto the treatments. Ill be honest, I chose this place because the prices seemed reasonable. Seriously, pay a little bit more and go somewhere else!!! Here's why: 1. My full-body massage and refluxology: This is the first time I ever got one. I was thinking I would have my stiff shoulders rubbed and the tension released. Instead I felt like I was tortured for over an hour. Instead of rubbing and massaging my body, he would just push on sensitive areas really hard with two fingers. The little hole for your face was too big for me and it either choked me when he push down on me, or I had to rest my chin on this really hard little piece of wood which hurt my chin pretty bad. I was paying A LOT of attention to the fact that I was either choking or had to strain my chin. BEWARE OF THE FOOT MASSAGE!!! Ouch! He squeezes and pinches, and it's so painful. I have BRUISES on my arms and legs from that massage! It was not pleasurable, I was counting the minutes til it was over! It was also really cold in the room, makes it hard to be comfortable, and the guy breathes REALLY heavily when he's rubbing you, and it makes you wonder who invited Darth Vader into the room. ALSO... someone came into the room while I was in there (without clothes) and left the door open during my massage!!! 2. My Mud Wrap: Did I mention it was cold in the room? When they take the blanket off of you and start covering you with this watery mud paste, I just started shivering (so cold!). They gave me these see-through disposable panties to wear, and when they started to take off my blanket to put the mud on, i was feeling VERY awkward when they just uncovered me. I was doing my best to try not to be fully exposed. When they had me shower after the wrap, I had to walk through someone else's massage to get to it, and be super quiet while showering so as not to fully ruin their experiences. And I heard her (while showering) telling the guy he was hurting her and to please be more gentle. i think he even burned her with a hot towel, because she screamed at one point. 3. My facial: I have burns still. Ill be honest, it wasn't too bad. My face hurt pretty bad after and still hurts, but im hoping that maybe my skin will look better in a few days. Right now it's just really red and sore. The worst part of that facial, was when the girl who was doing it, her friend came in, and they just sat there chatting in Vietnamese for a while. I felt like asking if they wanted me to leave the room so they could have their privacy. The girl who did the facial was really nice though. 4. Pedicure and Manicure: I felt somewhat rushed because they were short staffed, but Vivian did a great job, and she was really sweet. The other girl doing pedicures didn't seem so gentle. Stick with Vivian if you're gonna go. She's rad. In short... don't go. If you're looking to be abused, just go down to the ghetto and start talking smack. It's not worth paying hundreds of dollars to get your butt kicked. Seriously... heed my warning. read more

I have been a customer off an on for many years. The environment is very quiet and peaceful. The staff is very courteous and attentive. I have had a facial which I was very pleased with and many manicures/pedicures and various spa treatments with never a problem. The location is great and they are open 7 days a week. Parking is easily found on the street. read more

This place is like Heaven in North Park. The staff is fantastic. If you want the best pedicure for $20, Mai is gifted. Believe me, my dogs needed some work! Connie gave me a facial that literally lifted my face and my little "just turned 40 joul" took a vacation. I looked 10 years younger! They have weekly specials. Tell them TiKi sent you and get HOOKED up. it's ALL ABOUT YOU AND YOUR WORTH IT! I know I am :) read more

I used this spa when it was under previous ownership (Maylee), and now the new ownership (Tina). There is a marked difference between the two. I noticed it upon entering - dirty counter tops, sheets, light switches etc. I had come to Maylee for a hair removal on my back. Maylee used a cool feeling gel that she kept on for 15 minutes and did a great job. I specifically asked for this - and thought that was what I was receiving. I was very wrong and really paid the price in lost time and considerable pain on my back. What they used on me was Nair! and they left it on me for close to 45 minutes and kept rubbing it into me. I could buy Nair at the store! I had to say "you are burning me" and it really hurt. Even now 2 days later my back is super painful to the touch and keeps me from falling asleep at night. I will never go here again, and to don't believe the level of competence is there, nor professionalism. I wish I could post the pictures of my back - it is not pretty at all. read more

I first heard of this spa/salon through The Eleanor Group, which is a marketing service for spas. I purchased a series of 4 services, with each one to be completed on 4 separate visits. The services are pre-set. The idea is to introduce you to the spa's various services. You are given an option to upgrade to a longer time or a slightly different type of service for a nominal fee. The idea is that hopefully you will become a loyal customer once the 4 visits are completed. On my first visit with my friend Paula, we had the multi-power vitamin facial. We chose to add microdermabrasion for an additional $25. The woman who did my services, was Denise. She was very sweet, yet professional at the same time. She explained what she was going to do and all in all it was a wonderful experience. There was a bit of redness from the dermabrasion, but that is normal. Within a few days, my skin looked much clearer and brighter. My second visit was for either a microdermabrasion or red carpet facial. Since I liked the microdermabrasion so much on my first visit, I chose to have that done again with Denise. I also had her wax my upper lip for a mere $10. My third visit was just the other day and it was a seaweed body wrap, which is recommended to detoxify and remineralize the skin. Once again, Denise was my spa therapist and she did an excellent job. The treatment was very relaxing and afer the shower, the body lotion I used left my skin very cool and rejuvenated. The staff is very friendly and welcoming. Bree is the receptionist/spa therapist and from what I understand, her massages are wonderful. She is very helpful and explains exactly what the services entail. There is never a push to purchase additional services. I would definitely recommend this spa to everyone. The prices as listed are reasonable and they also have several packages available. Parking is off/street. It has never been a problem. The spa is located in the back of a small Mexican restaurant, but it definitely is not hard to find. I look forward to my 4th visit and will continue to be a loyal customer. read more

I love this place! I moved to Vegas, but still come back to this place once in a while. the owners are really sweet, and nice. They always give great service, and take her time on me. This place is really nice and clean, and the price is really reasonable. read more

I really enjoyed my package. I received the Total Body Wellness package, which included a spa mani and pedi, full body massage, sea weed wrap and a facial. Although I've had better facials, all in all, it was a nice experience and it was well worth every cent. I had a relaxing 3.5 hours there. I would definitely recommend this to my friends. read more

I tried this place 18mths ago for a rejuvenation facial as per a friends recommendation. The lady that did my facial did a great job. Thus me booking an appointment to get the same treatment done again. The lady that did the treatment this time was HORRIBLE. The spa was completely empty. I guess that should have been a warning sign to the buzzing spa I attended previously. The therapist was so rough. Facials are suppose to be relaxing and comforting. This was far from it. I also got a half leg wax and she clearly didn't know how to wax either. I had red marks all over my legs from where she pulled the wrong way. I cant emphasize enough to stay away from this place. There are much better spa out there. Don't waste your money. read more

I found out about this place in a "Get 1 Free" coupon book for local businesses. I needed a bikini wax and figured for $20.00 I would give them a try. The owner who said her name was My Li was very friendly and pleasant as well as the salon. I was looking forward to a good job being done. She proceeded to put what she called a "cooling gel" on so that it would be less painful. I thought this was very considerate. I did not notice any numbing after about 10-15 minutes. What I DID notice was the smell of a depilatory! I kept waiting for her to put the wax on and it never happened! She just wiped it off and used a skin conditioning lotion with menthol to mask the smell. When I let her know she kept saying she was a professional and many people were happy. The ad in t he magazine was for different types of WAXING not cream hair removal. I had that at home and didn't need to pay someone $20.00 to do this. She showed me a jar with a photo copy of something called Cooling Wax. I have googled this and asked salons and no one has ever heard of a cooling wax. A cooling gel for before/after the waxing but NO cooling wax on it's own. She then told me when I emphatically let her know that I knew what she did that my next time she would offer me a hot or cold wax! NEXT TIME! HA! I even looked in her wax tin and the wax was there but she NEVER used it. Super disappointed! read more

This is my second time that I've been to this spa, it's very reasonable very clean and they do a great job! I get the mani pedi for $25 and the lady that works there really takes her time and does a great job. The only negative thing is that they don't have a great collection of nail polish, I might bring my own next time. read more

I don't know about the other services they provide, but if you want your highlights done right, I wouldn't choose this place. They didn't do well at all, two people worked on it at once, but they didn't seem to be knowing what they were doing. My highlights turned out spotty and not what I wanted, even with a specific picture and color. The haircut was fairly simple. Short and layered. The layers and chunky, awkward and not even. None of it looks natural. I feel like they didn't have a clue how to layer hair, and my hair is fine and thin. Not a hard type of hair to cut short. They were nice people, don't get me wrong, but I won't ever be returning for a haircut or highlighting. read more
