I went for a facial with the new technician, Melissa, and it was outstanding. I've visited many different places across the city for facials, and this one was truly unique and worth every penny. She is extremely knowledgeable, my skin felt amazing afterward, and she even custom-blends her own oils tailored to your skin type. The massage was incredible--she doesn't leave the room like some places do; she stays and continues the massage the entire time. Highly recommend! read more

High quality service and they can do just about anything you wish with your nails. The best part is the atmosphere. It's like going to hang out with all of your girlfriends. The conversation is always on and everyone takes part read more

Aura Spa is a gem. It's decorated so beautifully for the holidays and it's warm and welcoming. The staff is a lot of fun and the services are very professional. My pedicure was amazing. The massage was out of this world! I felt like jello afterwards. My nails have grown out and stayed strong with the help of the girls! Love it and totally recommend. The prices beat any chop Shop and they are super sanitary unlike some of the chop shops I've been too. read more

I have been coming to Aura spa for 3 years now. Originally I came here to have my eye brows done - as Diana is very skilled, talented and precise with eyebrows (she is the eyebrow queen!). I have very dark black eyebrows and its important they are shaped well as they really stand out on my face. I now go to Aura for my facials, nails and laser hair remover. The staff at Aura are very friendly and skilled and honestly care about all their customers and do their utmost to ensure you are happy and satisfied. Also Diana guarantees her work, which was especially important to me in regards to laser. (have had great results with the laser) I trust the girls at Aura and they never push products on me, and instead have given me advice on how I can care for my skin without using expensive products, which also shows how honest and caring they actually are. The spa is beautiful and modern and they have a great online booking system so I can manage my own appointments easily. I have recommended Aura spa to all my friends and they too have become loyal customers. read more

Went for my first time today, and I think I'll be back! I wanted something where I could trust it was sanitary, but wasn't outrageously priced. Aura provided both! I paid $70 for a mani and pedi with regular polish. They have tons of colours and it's a beautiful, quiet and very clean location! The manicure was a nail shaping, cuticle fix, polish and lotion, nothing really special. The pedicure had a nice soak and scrub too! Parking was super easy on the street. I felt welcome, appreciated and taken care of! :) read more

Brought my friend here for a birthday mani-pedi and the ladies were so accommodating, friendly, and thoughtful! They did such a thorough job and we walked out with arguably the best manicures we've received in Calgary. Despite it being our first time to the salon, the customer service was personal and exceptional. Can't wait to refer my friends and come back myself to explore their other services! read more

Thrilled to have found this hidden gem . Took my mum here for a pedicure and was simply wowed by the experience. The location is handy to lots of other shops and amenities and the spa itself is beautiful. The space is chic, clean and super inviting. And the staff is absolutely lovely. I was really impressed by the pedicure service and the level of care and attention the ladies there give their customers. They just get it! I can't wait to go back. You have to try this spa read more

Aura Spa is super welcoming, has a great vibe, and they always do a great job at my nails! After a handful of bad "nail art" experiences I have finally found my home with Aura Spa. They take great care of my delicate nail bed and are now my one spot stop for all my beauty needs! read more

Love love love this place ! Clean and inviting and excellent staff! Always a great experience! Thank u!!! read more

I went to this place out of pure convenience as it is second from my house. I got shellac manicures done there a few times, i really liked the nail technician, but once they increased their prices is really wasn't worth it. Waxing is a whole other story. Horrible experience. I was sitting there waiting upwards of 30 minutes for my appointment probably three times. After the 3rd i decided the close proximity wasn't enough to keep me going there. While the owner is very friendly, she is quite assertive and uncomfortable. Once doing my brazilian she was talking about how awkward it is to look at peoples vaginas right in the middle. I know you are staring at my naked bum, a good technician would know not to talk about it. I was completely mortified and embarrassed. Go else where for your waxing unless you want to be talked down by a smug beauty salon owner. read more

Awesome spa!! I stumbled upon the salon after yelping in the area; what a gem. The owner Diana was very friendly, full of wonderful recommendations and the staff was amazing. I can't remember her name, but ask for the young woman from Ireland...she's fun to chat with and did a terrific job! When I return to Calgary I'll definitely stop back in. Clean, had many nice touches, relaxing environment and reasonably priced for the level of service. read more

Great laser hair removal. 3 treatments and my underarms are hair free! The owner has a great passion for what she does and educates you as a client. The only downside is the spa isn't open Sundays read more

I had the pleasure to try this amazing spa today and i was truly overwhelmed by the 5 star service from booking the appointment to the 3 amazing services i received. Best brow service ive ever had and absolutely superior mani and pedi. Dianna the owner is constantly checking on the comfort of all her clients and her staff are extremely skilled in their specialties. I had Tanya for my mani and pedi and she did such a perfect detailed job with such care and precision, while being so gentle. And here's the best part: all very reasonably priced!! I absolutely loved my experience!! Im telling everyone i know!! read more

Aura Spa was a positive experience for me in terms of customer service, communication with clients and using a conservative approach (Dr. K). I do find that you have to express yourself properly and see if Dr.K's approach is right for you. read more

Was @ Aura Spa Yesterday and got a Laser Extraction Facial done! I went from having some serious issues with my skin to HAVING ABSOLUTELY NOTHING TODAY!!!! My skin already looks and feels amazing!!! I will never let ANYONE else do a facial on me nor my eyebrows! To go anywhere else would be a waste of money and my time! Unbelievably Amazing! Thank You Again! read more

Seriously the nicest staff ever and they did such a beautiful job on my nails. I will one hundred percent be back here ! Reception was lovely and knowledgable. Sarah did my nails and was so kind and talented and I had the pleasure of meeting the owner who was quite possibly the nicest person I've met since moving to Calgary. read more

I went to this spa based on a recommendation of a friend's friend. My friend's friend is very stylish, upscale, health conscious, beauty guru, etc. Anything related with health and beauty, she is on it. She mentioned that Diana, the owner of Aura Spa, is a very professional esthetician. Diana runs a very clean and cozy spa. The services include manicure, pedicure, facial, massage, tanning, some laser treatments, and make up application. I was desperately looking for a good spa that means business and not pretentious. To be honest with you, I do not make a lot of money, but I like to think myself as a big spender when it comes to my face and my skin. I successfully persuaded one of my closest friends to spend few hours getting pampered. My friend picked manicure and pedicure, while I picked manicure, pedicure and facial. Now, my friend's friend told me that Diana does the BEST facial in Calgary. This friend talked nonstop about Diana ability. So I said, what the hell, let's try this Diana's facial. When we got there, the place was quite busy, but not cramped, although the space was smaller than the photo I saw on Yelp. Diana greeted us and I had a good feeling about her. She explained the agenda for the day. She treated us like Queens of England. So I thought, this day would be the best day ever! Then, all changed as soon as I hoped into the facial bed. Diana did the routine: washed my face, exfoliated for maybe 3 mins? Then steamed it for less than 10 mins. I can still feel my pores still closed and asleep. Then, she practised the extractions. It was PAINFUL. But I kept saying to myself, this is what beauty cost! I can felt her fingers just sort of pinched my face really hard, I mean, REALLY HARD. I felt like she was mad at something and just channeled her anger toward my face. I endured the pain for I don't know how long. Kept thinking to myself, beauty is painful. She finally done pinching my face then I experienced this really stingy, painful sensation and I could feel my face was swollen. She put the mask on which felt really nice but not long enough. Maybe 5 mins? I was like, wait wait don't take away the mask. But things happened so fast. All of the sudden, I realized I was in the washroom and saw myself in the mirror. I almost cried. My face was swollen and I could see scars!!!!!! I lost my appetite the whole day thinking what would my face be like. I got home and now the scars are more visible. All over my cheeks, my nose, chin and forehead, basically all over my face!!!! I kept debating should I write a review remembering Diana is very nice and those girls that she employs are super sweet. But I think Diana should not do any facials or anything involving face. I am in the process of healing my face. And I hope, oh how I hope, these scars will somehow go away. My cheeks and chin are still swollen and I have been putting ice every night before going to bed. I took a picture and showed it to my friend's friend. She was mortified and apologized profusely. Anyway, all harms had been done. I just hope Yelp did not screen this review and hide it. Maybe Aura Spa is good for everything else, but definitely not facial. read more

Today was my first visit at Aura and all I can say is wow! Great price point, spotless salon, friendly staff, high quality products, just an overall wonderful salon. read more
