The spa is quaint and makes great use of its space, plus they offer off-street parking, and convenient on-line booking. The service prices are incredibly fair and comparable to competitors. The aestheticians and reception team are both polite and efficient. I would love to show you the before-and-after photos, but I don't think the internet is emotionally prepared for that yet. I would however, recommend the signature facial for beginners. Everyone I encounter now thinks I'm 10 years younger and I have no intentions of correcting them.

I'm hoping that my relationship with Skin Essentials will be a fruitful one! It started off as…read moresuch! After purchasing a recent Groupon for laser hair removal treatments, I went for my first appointment this afternoon. As a newbie to this method, I was a bit nervous and curious about what to expect. I opted to get my underarms done and was assured by the receptionist (and technician!) that it will be completely worth it in the end. Apparently I'll want to wear tank tops all the time once I'm done! The interior of this business is well decorated, comforting, and exudes the quality of a spa. While I waited for my appointment, I sat on a plush red couch, surrounded by the smell of scented candles, and drawn to the Keurig coffees and teas available. My appointment was actually later in the day than I had originally made it for. I was called the day before and informed that a piece needed to be replaced on the laser machine and that they needed to reschedule with me. After much apologizing, I received an appointment later in the day and was told I'd be called in the morning to inform me of the progress of their fix. I received my call today and drove on over. For having had to reschedule, my wait was very quick. She brought me in the treatment room, explained the whole process, gave me a chance to ask any questions I had, and was very attuned to my needs during the entire procedure. I have to say. . . hair follicles certainly do not go out without a fight! I can't say that the procedure was comfortable, but the staff do their best to decrease your discomfort. I was given stress balls to squeeze (which at first reminded me of the "here bite on this so I can chop off your leg" type medicine of the distant past) and had a blast of cold air on my skin during the procedure to take the edge off. The technician did a good job talking to me throughout which also helped distract me from the needle-like pain of the laser. Had I needed her to stop at any time, she was more than willing to do so to give me a break. The actual procedure took less than 15 minutes and I was truly in and out of the office. I was given post care instructions and encouraged to call if I had any further questions or concerns. While I'm not looking forward to the procedure again, I'm definitely looking forward to the results. I'll have to update a long time from now when all six sessions are complete to review the results!

This place is a good example of "too big for your britches." They use a special kind of laser -…read morethey say its top of the line, etc, etc - but it seems to be less effective for hair removal than the typical candela that shoots you in the face. This one requires gel to be applied to you - which is nice and cool - but very messy. Also, they require you to bring in your own anti-inflammation gel and clean your face before arriving - they don't have any themselves. Usually, spas will give you some witch hazel to clean the area and hydrocortisone afterwards. This place recommends both, but doesn't supply them. Donna, the owner, is superficially very nice but not great with customer service. When I asked her about the equipment used, she told me to ask the woman who would be doing the service. When I asked the woman doing the service, she told me to ask Donna. Hm...

Mandy was very responsive in returning photo calls and texts. She was also able to schedule us for a Saturday appointment within two weeks of us contacting her. Glow Skin Bar operates in Reign Salon on Mineral Springs Avenue in North Providence. Tons of parking and easy to get to. Mandy is incredibly bubbly and fun to talk to - both before our appointments with questions about the treatment and at the time of service. She actively described the procedure, took before and after photos so we could see the difference and provided great after care instructions. I decided to upgrade our chemical peel with a hydrojelly mask from Esthemax which was an excellent suggestion and made our skin feel super hydrated. Hubby and I highly recommend Mandy and Glow Skin Bar! I'm texting with Mandy to schedule our next appointment for May! Pro tip: you should not get a chemical peel during the summer months because of sun exposure... go to Mandy for microdermabrasion.
