I definitely recommend this place for a relaxing and enjoyable time.

I don't know if it's salon procedure or if the stylist was just skimping but I had brought my 4-year-old daughter in for her very first haircut, ever. Her hair was past her bottom and too long for us to manage. I convinced her it was going to be fun because someone was going to wash her hair and massage her head a little, give it a trim and a nice blow dry....ummm...not what happened. My babe never got her hair washed. Stylist just did a dry cut. And it was over in 20 minutes. $60?! Whoa. She didn't get a $60 experience. No hair wash or blow dry. Just a quick rough, dry cut. She was disappointed and so was I. We didn't say anything but reflecting back, I was shocked at being charged so much for so little service. It was $60 with tip. I'm assuming the salon sets a base price, not the stylist. Nevertheless, I take my daughter elsewhere where she gets the full salon experience. She's only 5 but she loves getting her hair washed and blown out.

Our appointment was confirmed, and we even received confirmation at 8:14a.m. the morning of our appointment. We arrived on time, only to receive a text at 11:02am while we were already outside the spa--saying they no longer had availability and asking us to reschedule. It was completely unprofessional and unacceptable. To make matters worse, the front desk employee didn't even handle the situation herself. Instead, she called someone else on the phone to speak with us, and that person was incredibly rude and not helpful at all. Canceling a confirmed appointment after we've already arrived, especially the day before our wedding, showed a complete lack of respect for our time. We planned this experience to help us unwind before an important milestone, and instead it added unnecessary stress. I would not recommend this spa. If you value professionalism, communication, and customer service, I would look elsewhere.

I recently visited this spa, and got a wonderful massage from Tina. I understand there has been a…read morerecent management change, but this was my first visit, so I can't comment on that. What I do know is that massages and touch are transformative when performed by a conscious, mindful practitioner -- and that's especially true during stressful times. Tina was very kind and understanding of my needs, with a warm and caring attitude. i will definitely be going back!

I've been coming here for 6 years now for massages. I haven't (yet) tried any of their other…read moreservices. There seems to have been a personal/management change a while back and most of the folks I knew previously are gone. But the new folks are all excellent. This place probably isn't for everyone so let me tell you what is and isn't here. From the outside the place looks a bit like a dive. The entryway is nice enough, although small. And the rooms and tables are minimal, Spartan, sparsely decorated, and almost cramped. I say "almost" because while the rooms seem small to me when I walk in and dress or undress, I don't believe the massages are affected at all. The music is grossly under par. Same stuff for months. Not offensive, just tiring. They've experimented with other stuff some recently but it's still not great. And this is one area where they could greatly improve for little or no added cost. It's true that the walls are thin and that the staff sometimes talks to coordinate what's going on. The thin walls I notice nearly every visit but it's rare for anyone in the room with me to talk. So... if you're looking for a zen cultivating decor or music, you may be disappointed. I also don't get the best massages of my life here. Sorry. One more thing you won't find here: $200/hr sessions. The prices here seem to follow an Asian massage practice, common at both "foot" massage places as well as whole body parlors where the hour long massage can be quite inexpensive, even as low as $15, but that seems to be the house take. The massage practitioners seem to live on tips so it's not uncommon to tip 50-100% rather than our common 15-20%. But even at 50% tipping, my total cost for massage plus tip here is still entirely reasonable. What I do find here and the reason I come back week after week, sometimes several times a week, are consistently excellent massages for very reasonable prices. I don't want to pay an additional $100/hr for nice decor and water features. I want the bulk of my money to go directly into the quality of touch and I believe Mind of Beauty is a superb match for me in this regard. Of the three practitioners I've been seeing recently, they are all my favorite. Or maybe my favorite is whoever I've just had. Coco, Mia, and Sandy are all slightly different but they are all excellent and of similar quality - consistently professional, consistently excellent. If you're looking for consistently excellent massages at an very good price, even including your tip, I highly recommend Mind of Beauty Day Spa. Please bring cash for tips and plan to tip considerably more than you would for wait staff.

The woman at…read morereception wouldn't even look at my face, acting like she was personally saving the world behind that computer screen. I stood there awkwardly waiting forever, and when she finally acknowledged me it felt less like a spa and more like I was bothering someone at a government office or student affairs desk. I got a full body massage and somehow I ALWAYS make this mistake -- trying random massage places and ending up with the newest, least experienced person they can find. I'm not exaggerating when I say the massage felt like she was just applying lotion to my body. That's it. Like her job was spreading oil around, not actually massaging. On top of that, she barely understood English. I only booked 30 minutes because I went during a break in my day just to relax a little, so I didn't even have time to argue or make a scene. At one point I asked if she could press into my back a bit more or crack it slightly and she literally goes, "I am not sure, let me try." LET ME TRY??? Left there somehow more tense than when I walked in, except now I'd also paid for the privilege. Massage place owners seriously need to get massages from their own employees before hiring them. Nothing is more frustrating than going somewhere specifically to relax and ending up unable to communicate with the person touching your body because they don't speak a word of English.
