I'm definitely not her most frequent client, but every time I come in she remembers me, makes me feel completely comfortable, and takes such amazing care of me.

I especially want to shout out the front desk team, Jasmin and Andrea, they are always so warm, welcoming, and helpful whenever I come in. They really set the tone for the whole visit and make the experience feel smooth from the moment you walk in. Andrea has also done one of my facials and she was wonderful! So knowledgeable, gentle, and made my skin feel amazing afterward. I've also been seeing Vanessa regularly for facials and appreciate the consistency in treatments. I cannot recommend this place enough :)

My esthetician is Vanessa and she's great! She always talks me through what my skin needs both during the facial and after for my skin care. She always makes sure she's aware of what my skin goals are whenever I go. While they do sell products here as well, I've never felt like it was ever forced on me and she's have given me samples a few times to make sure I actually like it! This is both The Acne Spot and Taylor'd Skin Studio, with everything sharing one lobby. It's very relaxing in all areas including the lobby and the facial rooms. I ended up getting the membership that included one custom facial among other things like the red light therapy. The lobby is where the Glow Your Own Way red light therapy stations are and it's just as relaxing as inside the rooms. The lot for this plaza is fairly large so Ive also never had issues with parking! Highly recommend if you're looking to improve your skin!

One of our relaxing treatment rooms! Ahhhhh... :)

I have had acne off and on throughout my life, but my hormonal acne significantly flared up in the last few years. I decided to try something new, and I am so glad that I did!! Lan is such a delight! She is super knowledgeable and answers any questions or concerns that I have. She is so sweet and kind and I look forward to our appointments, as it is just like catching up with a friend! She is an amazing aesthetician, and I am sooo thankful to have her as my guide on my journey to improve my skin. I have seen significant improvement in the overall health of my skin since I have started my acne spot regimen and bi-weekly facials. My face no longer has deep and painful acne like it did when I started the program. My skin texture and appearance has also significantly improved and not only do I see the improvement but so have my friends and family. I am now not as self conscious of my face and that feeling is priceless. However, I must note that it is not an overnight fix. In order for there to be improvement, you must be willing to stay consistent with your skin routine!! It is an investment both time wise and financially, so you need to make sure that you are willing to put in the work to see results. It was very much a worthwhile investment for me. I am so glad that I did it!!!

I have been a loyal customer here for 2 years! I never really give reviews but I just have to say I LOVE it here! Everyone is so nice, very efficient, and I am always satisfied with the service! I've gotten acrylics, gel x, pedicures, and manicures and every time I come in I'm greeted with a smile and always left satisfied! I was new to getting my nails done when I first moved into the area, and I've had everything done here from just polish manicures to 3d art! And every single time, the nails turn out beautiful! I love recommending this salon! 10/10! read more

I have never been so disappointed as I always come to this salon and they do an amazing job. I thought they would be more understanding about my situation but the lady who I talked to at the front didn't even want to look at my nails at first, she just said "that's it. A regular manicure lasts days." Which is honestly such a horrible response because my toes look nowhere near as horrible as my manicure and they are both regular which I am expecting to last at least 7 days as I take good after care to maintain them. Will not be coming here again.
