### Facial Review: A Truly Rejuvenating Experience with Mindy…read more I recently had the pleasure of experiencing a facial with Mindy, and I cannot recommend her services highly enough! From the moment I arrived, Mindy's warm and welcoming demeanor put me at ease. The atmosphere of her treatment room was serene and calming, which added to the overall experience. Mindy took the time to discuss my skincare needs and preferences, ensuring that the treatment was tailored specifically to me. Her attention to detail is truly impressive. During the facial, Mindy used high-quality products that felt luxurious on my skin. I especially appreciated her expertise in using techniques that not only cleansed my skin but also provided a relaxing massage that melted away the stress of the day. After the treatment, my skin felt incredibly refreshed, hydrated, and glowing. Mindy even provided me with helpful tips for maintaining my skin's health at home, showing her genuine commitment to her clients' wellbeing. If you're looking for a top-notch facial experience, I highly recommend scheduling an appointment with Mindy. Her skills and dedication to her craft make her services stand out. I can't wait for my next visit!

I've been coming to Sanctuary Spa for a while now and it's easily one of the best self-care…read moredecisions I've made. I see Emma for facials and she's truly the best. She takes the time to understand your skin, your goals, and what's actually going on instead of just going through the motions. Every appointment feels really personalized, which I appreciate so much. One thing I love is how she recommends products in a way that feels thoughtful and genuine. There's never any pressure, just helpful guidance that's clearly based on what will actually work for you. The spa itself is in a super convenient spot in Long Beach and parking is easy, which makes a difference. The whole team is always warm and welcoming, and the vibe is calm and relaxing every time I go. Emma is a big reason I keep coming back, and I'd absolutely recommend checking this place out.

Was looking at several places for a prenatal massage with affordable pricing and found this place…read moreon Yelp. Booking online was super easy, which I appreciated. I had my first prenatal massage with Christina, and she made the experience very comfortable and relaxing from start to finish. She walked me through everything, applied great pressure, and made sure I was comfortable throughout the session. The room was dark with calming music, which made it even more relaxing. Overall, it was a wonderful experience and I would definitely come back again!

I've been visiting Natalie for a long time to remove my unwanted hairs. She's very professional and…read moreknows how to treat your skin. In other words, she takes her time, knows how your skin grows, and just doesn't just wax you in 3 strips and sends you out the door with a burn (speaking from experience about other unnamed professional wax places, that just wax). Of all those years, I've never had a facial from her and I have to say, it was awesome. Again, she already knows my skin knows what is needed. I left refreshed and she also let me know what I should see and what to do after I left. There are very few people who I trust with my skin and Nat is one of those trusted few. My skin is very sensitive and the product she used didn't irritate my skin or my eczema. The room itself is very welcoming and clean. Overall, I would definitely recommend Natalie for your de-hairing and skin needs. She's located upstairs in a quaint building off PCH and 5th. There's enough parking for the businesses and the spaces are normal size. Despite the busy road and eateries surrounding the location, it's still a calm and peaceful space to relax and just have a great chat with Nat.

Lynn (manicurist) and Lydia (pedicurist) took great care of me with ZERO sloppiness and extremely cheerful and professional chairside manner.

I WILL be returning and am so relieved that the search for a new nail salon is officially and happily over! Thanks to owner Kathy and her team!!!

This is the only review you need to read to tell you everything you need to know about this salon…read moreand why you should NOT go here. First, I have tried this salon twice now (so that you don't have to) and have been dissatisfied on both occasions. The second occasion has made me mad enough to write this review. Also, I get my nails done every 3 weeks routinely (always dip on my natural nail, always the same shape) and have never experienced such unprofessional conduct until I tried this salon. --Bad Quality: I asked for extremely natural color and shape. First time I went, the shape was fine but the dip did not last more than 5 days before it started "crumbling"/breaking near the tip. I work so I couldn't get back to the salon to address this and decided to give them one more chance. I gave them this second chance when I went back less than 2 weeks after the first visit. This second visit, the nail tech (Natalie) said she would do an extra layer of dip (total of 3 layers) to make sure it didn't crumble/break as fast (since dip usually lasts me 3 weeks without breaking)--she did the 3 layers and my nails were extremely thick/globby. She fixed the thickness a little bit with the drill but they were still SO much thicker than any other nail salon I've been to (all other salons have done 3 layers and still managed to make them look natural/not so thick/globby). 4 days later, I've already had one of the extremely thick ones break/crumble--I say "crumble" because it is not a clean break like you'd expect, it's literally crumbling off--this means whatever process they are using to dip is not good bc clearly the chemical agents are not activating properly. --Unprofessional Response: I called the second it broke (4 days later on Monday) and asked if they could fix it after work at 5:30 PM (their business hours are listed as being open until 7PM--they told me that I could "come now" (in the middle of my work day) to which, I told them I could not come before 5:30 any week day since I work full time. They told me that they wouldn't be open at 5:30 and that they'd close at 3 today bc they didn't have any more appointments scheduled to make them stay open until 7PM (their listed business hours). They told me that I could come at 5Pm on Thursday to get fixed. I cannot wait that long as the nail is snagging my clothes. They offered no other accommodation despite me explaining that I work M-F and they offered no explanation as to why their publicly listed business hours were not accurate. I would have never chosen this salon had I known that its listed business hours were not accurate since I work and always look for a salon with later availability in case needed. Their response was not only unprofessional, but their tone on the phone was "annoyed" that I would even ask them to fix the crappy job that they did to begin with. I will not be going back and recommend that you look elsewhere if you don't want your dip to crumble or nails to look like thick-globs.

I cannot recommend this place enough! The customer service is top-notch--everyone is so welcoming…read moreand professional from the moment you walk in. The wax technicians are absolutely amazing; they're skilled and make the entire experience as comfortable as possible. In terms of services, I always opt for the playboy bikini wax. I've been waxed by just about every gal in the shop and I would honestly recommend any one of them. The service is relatively quick (about 30 minutes). Time seems to fly by because the conversations are always a high point of the service. The gals at TAOW could teach gynecologists a thing or two about making a girl feel comfortable while being exposed. On top of that, the pricing is affordable, especially considering the high quality of the service. It's rare to find a business that offers both great value and such a personal touch. If you're looking for a waxing spot that truly cares about its clients and delivers outstanding results, this is the place to go! Don't forget to tip your waxer. After all, any service at The Art of Waxing is cheaper than therapy with results of instant gratification!

I wanted to take a chance on a new waxing place and I was surprised how terrible my experience…read moreactually was. I had to sit in the car and think about it before writing this. Waxer was nice, but you could tell she didn't want to be there and that the early morning appointment was an inconvenience to her. Constant yawning and saying it's too early to be here. Lacks professionalism. I left with wax, baby powder, and still portions of my leg with hair on it (like literally missed my whole inner thigh and outer thigh). I walked out of the room and told her I still had wax on me and she just apologized and didn't take me back into the room to remove it. Wax all over the trash bins, floors dirty, and baseboards with who knows what all over. To add onto that, when it was time for me to turn over on my stomach, there was still wax on my leg which ripped the paper lining I was laying on & I could see old blood stains on the cloth under. At that moment, I seriously should have walked out and left. I still left a tip but needs serious improvement as I expected more from a service that has 4.8 stars on Yelp. Avoid if you value cleanliness, etiquette, and overall have high expectations. Will be returning back to my previous waxer.
