    Anniversary head spa package
    Kri O.

    Had such a lovely experience at Elevation Spa! I got the Anniversary Package for a really good price, and the whole experience felt luxurious and definitely more elevated than other head spas I've tried. I loved that they offered food and drinks, and their birthday experience is such a cute touch--they give you a tiara and sash and take photos! A couple things could be improved: the "microdermabrasion" felt more like a regular exfoliation with a cleansing brush, and I wish my blowout was a little better. My sister-in-law definitely got the better one . Kimmie was wonderful though! She even offered to take photos and videos during the experience, which was such a thoughtful extra touch. Overall, I had a great time and will definitely be back!

    I came here on my cousin's recommendation, and I'm so glad I did! The salon is beautiful, spacious, and has plenty of manicure and pedicure stations, so it never felt crowded. I also love that they offer additional services like head spa treatments, facials, and eyelash extensions, making it a great one stop shop for self-care. We came in for manicures and pedicures and were taken care of right away. The staff was incredibly friendly, attentive, and made us feel welcome from the moment we walked in. Our nail techs did an amazing job, and we were so happy with the results. One detail I especially appreciated was that they have each nail technician's Venmo and Zelle QR codes readily available to scan for payment. It's such a thoughtful and convenient touch that makes tipping quick and easy. Overall, it was a wonderful experience, and I've officially found my go-to nail salon whenever I'm visiting family in Buena Park. I can't wait to come back!

    I chose a mimosa for my complimentary drink and was given a cheese cake with a candle for my birthday package!

    This place was definitely a spoiled birthday treat for myself! The facility was huge. My friend and I had made an easy apt online weeks ago to do a head-spa treatment, and we chose the birthday package. We were greeted by the ladies who took care of us. They gave us a robe, had a locker to put things away and walked us to our area. The head-spa was amazing! I felt pampered, relaxed, and well rested. I would come back here again to treat myself! We finished our apt by the ladies blow drying our hair and had a complimentary drink and cheesecake.

    Pamper yourself with a head spa service at Elevation. Top notch spa with elevated service provided by staff. I've been wanting to do a head spa for a while, therefore I treated myself for Mother's Day. Yes, I know this review is long overdue. They were having a special if you booked on a weekday which I couldn't pass up. Check in went smoothly and I was able to start my session earlier than expected. It worked out better because I needed to pick up the kids from school afterwards. They start you off by giving you a robe to change into. Then I was taken into a room where it was just me, so I felt special for the first hour like a VIP status. The massages were fantastic. I honestly don't know what they were actually doing because I was just in my zen relaxing zoning out in space. I do know they were using natural ingredients on my face and head for organic treatment. Afterwards, they take you to another room to dry your hair and serve you tea and a small snack. I upgraded to the birthday package which staff insisted and received cheesecake plus a glass of wine at check out. It added a special touch to my experience. I'm telling you, this is a must to do even for males. You won't regret it!

    I brought my mom here first time on 8/23/26 to celebrate her Birthday and we did the head spa and then got our nails done all in one place. From mini facial glow to shiny and clean hair to beautiful nails all glitter style From the ladies all so beautiful and happy with smile and joy on their face, it was worth me driving almost 2 hours to come here. We love Terrie the manager (she Rocks!!) and all the ladies I can't remember names, but we came back again yesterday and trust me you don't want to miss this place. If we lived close by, I would come here once a week. Worth every penny!!! Thank you ladies each and everyone... Hannah, Chloe, Kim, Sara, Sophie, Joanna, Tina, and each of you. Hope I didn't forget anyone. God bless each of you.

    I was able to get a same day appointment. I called in the morning and spoke to Terry. She for me in at 1:15. I got there a bit early. The receptionist asked if I wanted to use the restroom first. I did. It was clean and looked newly renovated. The manicure/predicate area was HUGE. Never seen anything like that. After I used the rest room, they walked me to the head spa lounge and treatment area. I confirmed which service I wanted (75 min) and added a 35 min foot massage. They walked me through glass doors where I was transformed into a more relaxing space. I was provided with a satin tube dress and a changing room. After changing, I picked a locker to put my stuff in. Then they walked me to a very quiet and dim area where my treatment would take place. It was so great. I wasn't sure what to expect but I basically got a foot massage, a facial, scalp, face, and shoulder massage, hot stone massage, double shampoo, double conditioner, got snacks, warm tea, and other shoulder massage while sitting in a hair stylist chair where she worked out knots on my right shoulder, hair dried with serum, and iced Vietnamese coffee to finish. I'm definitely coming back! Thank you Terry for fitting me in today and for being so hospitable!

    Guava Heat
    Carrie W.

    I went here for the head spa with a friend and it was a super relaxing experience. I just went in for the elevation retreat package which is $60 and it was so worth the price! This package includes a facial, scalp massage, shampoo, conditioning, etc. and it also includes a snack and a drink (alcoholic or nonalcoholic). I got the guava heat and it was refreshing. If you come during Mon-Thurs, you can get an extra 25% off and Fri-Sun is an extra 20% off. This might just be a promotional discount for the time being so take an advantage of it while it still lasts! This beauty salon is huge and not only does it have a head spa, but it also has lashes, mani/ pedi services. I will definitely be back for the head spa and other services!

    Treatment: I had the elevation deluxe treatment (level 2 out of 3) plus a microderm add-on. Since I came during the weekday (mon-thursday) I got the 25% discount so the price came to $85, plus $25 for microderm. The prices are well worth with the discount. I appreciate the attention to detail throughout the experience, the service was amazing, from the complementary drink at the beginning to the blow dry hair experience at the end. Head massage: 10/10! They did everything right here. Washed my hair extremely well the water felt warm, the massage had the perfect pressure, and they also blow dry and styled the hair for me. Shoulder and neck massage: 10/10 I appreciated them asking to check on the pressure, and I appreciate it every step from the warm towel, the hot stones, and the massaging in specific pressure points. Facial: 8.5/10 The mini Facial did left my face feeling extremely soft. There is no extra extractions or anything that was painful during the Facial. During the microderm, I wish my face was a little bit more moisturized as the device felt slightly dry pressing against my face. I do also wish that they kept the face mask serum on my face. I noticed they washed it off after a lengthy sheet mask, so I left the spa with no creams/sunscreen on my face.

    Want a few hours of pampering? This is it. Nails, eyelashes, waxing, facials, head spa treatment all in one place. They have such a large selection of nail polish colors and style options to choose from. We checked in for our head spa treatments and promptly greeted by the receptionist with complimentary drinks. I had the coconut Matcha. We were then ushered in, with a change of clothes taken thank you mighty Rosemary into the spa area to begin our treatment. With a full head, spa treatment, a brief facial, and light massage. It was a nice relaxing experience.

    I decided to try this place because it's close to my work and never again. The first red flag was when I specifically asked for **Gel-X in a small length**, and the nail tech told me she couldn't do small and suggested doing medium and cutting them down instead. During the application, she had to remove and reapply the Gel-X tips several times because they weren't fitting properly. At that point, I honestly just wanted to leave. She even asked if it was my first time getting Gel-X, which surprised me because I get my nails done every three weeks. What really bothered me was how aggressively my natural nails were filed. The friction became so hot that it burned, and when I mentioned it, I was told I was "too sensitive." Her name maybe Celine not sure. Bad attitude also front desk girl with short hair. Please owner train your staffs better

    I booked an appointment for my mom and I for my moms birthday. Hana and Yen were patiently waiting for us at the front door as my mom is elderly and uses a walker. The amount of patience these ladies had with my mom was amazing! My mom was hesitant to do this and said nothing would make her relax.. half an hour in I could hear my mom snoring! Hanah whispered to me that my shoulders were very tense (which they were as I am under a lot of stress as I work 10 hrs a day and then im a caregiver for both my parents in the evening) but Hanah somehow worked all the stress out of my neck and shoulders...at one point I had tears from being g able to feel the stress leave my body! When we were done Hana and Yen had birthday cake and drinks waiting for us! The attention to detail was amazing and the relaxing setting they created is like nothing ive experienced before! And my hair has never been this shiny!!! I will be booking here with Hana and Yen at least once a month! I will be telling all my friends about this place. May book a girls day as well. Ask for Hana or Yen everyone!!!

    Place was huge, clean, staff were very friendly. Parking lot is spacious. They have a lot of services to choose from. I went for a gel manicure, they recommended I do builder instead. I agreed. The design came out so cute, the lady doing my nails was so friendly. However, the builder gel came out SO THICK and uneven. The edges weren't filed. Each finger was a different length... I ended up going home and filing them myself. I still want to give this place another try. It is very clean, staff are great, very welcoming.

    My sister and I visited Elevation Spa a day ago, and I want to start by saying the customer service was great. Hannah, who attended me, was amazing throughout the service. She did great work, checked in often to make sure I was comfortable, and had a very professional and caring approach. That said, I do want to share my honest feedback regarding the services themselves. I purchased the Elevation Ultimate 90-minute package, which included the Elevation Deluxe, and unfortunately, the services provided did not match what was advertised. I specifically chose the detox facial, but what I received was a very basic facial consisting of cleansing, exfoliation, steam, massage, and a sheet mask. As an esthetician, I can tell the difference right away, and this did not feel like a detox facial. The hair portion was also disappointing. It seemed to be just a shampoo done twice, and I wasn't informed or aware of any mask being applied. I found this spa through Instagram, and while the services look very appealing on social media, the actual experience did not match what was promoted in the package. Although this spa offers a wide range of services such as nails, massages, and facials, I personally would not trust their package deals. Customer service was great, but as someone who regularly visits spas and understands treatments, I would not return based on this experience.

    Had a great experience here. We used to go to I Spa in Irvine, so this place is smaller, but no…read morecomplaints here. We came in the morning on a weekday and it was very quiet and peaceful. Just a handful of people. Men's spa area had 3 small pools (hot, warm, cold), dry and steam sauna rooms, and a hidden corner for scrubbing. Showers have shampoo, conditioner, and soap. Changing area with some basic toiletries. They also provide a toothpaste and disposable toothbrush. Common area has 4 side rooms (ice, red clay, salt, and forest). There's places to lie down and lounge and tables with chairs. There's also a kiosk to order food and drinks. You'll hear the sound of waves and gentle instrumental music to help you relax. Overall, enjoyed our experience here and will be back! They have a deal where you can purchase 10 spa entree fees for $300 ($35 per entry otherwise). Entry fee is waived if services are purchased (except for scrub only).

    One of my frequented korean spas and the thing that draws me back everytime is the restaurant on…read moresite. The food there is HEAVEN. I literally dream about eating the food and drinking the drinks there. The spa itself is what i would rate pretty decent at a 3.5/5. I came here with my girlfrends to do a scrub. I think they packaged a deal where you can get a scrub and a 30 min massage for just a tad more. For my first time scrub experience.. it was an experience for sure and you have to really love and be comfortable with your body. When you check in, you will receive your locker key, uniform, and can request for toothbrush and razor as needed. Next you put your shoes and then your belongings and strip down! The wet sauna area is FULL nude. And you'll see people walking around naked in the locker room. You will be required to shower before you get into the hot tubs or sauna rooms. They provide shampoo, conditioner, and body wash. You can bring your own as well! Compared to other spas i've gone to, the have a bar soap and some decent shampoos. I just think its weird to have a communal bar soaps around. I tried to find the soap bodywash. The hot tubs were soo relaxing as well as the steam rooms. I felt all more pores opening. There is also a cold plunge for those who like that. If you are doing a scrub they will call your number (your key number) and lead you to the scrubbing tables. They are separated stalls but its in an open room. There will be a korean aunty in a swimsuit that will instruct you to turn front back side to side as she starts scrubbing you. When you get to the point of no flacks given, life is so relaxing. I let aunty scrub me down and descale me like a fish and I watched all my dead skin melt off. I do have to say they get pretty close to the crotch area and also pretty close to your crack. It caught me by suprise as I didnt think they'd go there but they are respectful and will put a towel in your nether regions. But literally no area was not baby skin smooth afterwards. What also caught me by suprise was it also included a hair wash and a freshly grated cucumber facial. I left feeling so good and i dried off, uniformed and met my friends at the common area. Common room is really relaxing and "room temp" and then you can increase in temp with the different rooms they have. There is a relatively room temp room (bamboo) and a cold room (which i love, basically a freezer). You can order drinks and snacks to the common room via kiosk. When we got hungry, we had to exit through the front desk area and enter the restaurant. And again the best food i've ever had and drinks. We were 3 girls and ordered 2 things. Bossam and the galbitang and STUFFED was an understatement. We ate so much and had enough to take home. We went back to spa and came back for their bingsoo which was so good! Special shoutout to the rice water tea and the peach fruit tea. SO GOOD. Spa itself, I do wish some amenities are updated. But the restaurant is really the reason why I keep coming to this spa.

The reasons why I want to update my review: Very relaxing atmosphere -- the center area isn't overly loud. Everything is very clean and well maintained. The skincare products they use feel nicer/better quality than what I've experienced at other spas. I also really appreciate that this is a 12+ facility, so there aren't small children running around. At some other spas, kids can be loud and make it harder to fully relax. Here, the atmosphere is much more peaceful, which makes a big difference when you're coming to relax

The therapists who perform the scrubs are absolutely amazing, and I truly enjoyed the experience. I also really appreciate that they make an effort to keep the atmosphere quiet but they need to do walk throughs . I had to go to front desk 2 times to ask them to ask guest to quiet down. Most recently, I went with my spouse, and we had such a wonderful experience overall. Unfortunately, there was one major issue that really affected our visit: I became very sick with what I believe was food poisoning after eating from their kitchen. I experienced significant symptoms for the next couple of days. I reached out to them regarding what happened and was told someone would follow up with me about how they would address the situation or compensate me for the experience. Unfortunately, I still have not heard back. I genuinely love the spa, the atmosphere, and the services, which is why I hope they will take this situation seriously and follow up with me. I would love to be able to continue recommending this place, but I do feel this issue deserves to be addressed. I spent money for a beautiful peaceful experience to ending it ruined by the food.

    Irvine Spa has updated their facilities. Some rooms are getting renovated, some rooms have cushion…read moremats with head rest to lay. There game room is actually pretty cute now. It use to be a kids play area but they change into a photo booth, claw machine game room so older folks can enjoy. Their food court menu has expanded too. It use to be mostly Korean food but now you have shave ice, fruits, salad and smoothie drinks. Which is great if you're not particularly wanting anything heavy. Yes price has increased but they are also updated and expanded to make the experience more pleasant which I appreciate. It being over 6 months that I last came and was pleasantly surprised. I stop going for a while because the price increased but the facilities stayed the same and a little underwhelmed but now I'm enjoying it little bit more. It seems like everything is just a little bit better now. I see the effort.

    I used to go to iSpa pretty regularly and was even willing to drive over an hour to get here…read morebecause I loved the atmosphere so much. They put a lot of effort into recreating the feel of a traditional Korean village in their jjimjilbang and rest area, and it really does make you feel like you've been transported to Korea. The women's soaking pools are also spacious. Unfortunately, my most recent visit was really disappointing. The jjimjilbang rooms were noticeably cooler than I remembered. Most of them were barely warm enough to make me sweat, and even the hottest room didn't feel hot at all. At first, I assumed something was malfunctioning, which I would have completely understood. However, I asked the front desk and was told that these are going to be their regular temperatures moving forward because they had been cited by the health department for the rooms being too hot. I understand that they have to comply with health department requirements, but for someone who specifically comes here for the traditional Korean sauna experience, this completely changes the experience for me. If I'm going to a sauna, I expect to sweat. The LA weather outside honestly feels hotter than some of the sauna rooms now. It's unfortunate because iSpa used to be worth the hour-plus drive for me, and I genuinely loved coming here. The atmosphere is still beautiful and unique, but without the heat I expect from a Korean sauna, I don't think I'll be making the drive back.

    I had my first ever real massage at The Now last week and I'm still thinking about it. After having…read morean insanely stressful last couple weeks at work I wanted to treat myself and try to decompress and Jordan was absolutely amazing. All of the questions at the beginning to gauge my comfortability and how I wanted the massage to proceed left me feeling so at ease when it actually started. I had had a cheapy chair massage up in the bay area at a different establishment years ago that I hated. I had kept waiting for it to end. But with Jordan I was shocked when it wrapped. It wasn't long enough and my muscles and all the stress I had been carrying had dissipated. Will surely be back to have another session with her! Also the scalp treatment add on is a must! Smelt like cookie butter and for anyone with chronic migraines it's a 10 out of 10!

    I booked a last-minute 80-minute massage with Emmanuel because I'm moving out of state next week…read moreand had two membership credits left to use. I honestly went in with pretty low expectations because I have extremely tight hips and piriformis issues, and it's rare that I find someone who really understands the type of massage and pressure I need. I don't know where Emmanuel came from, but he is incredible. I barely had to explain anything. I just mentioned where I was tight and what was bothering me, and from literally the first minute until the end, everything was perfect. The pressure, pace, technique, and areas he focused on were exactly what my body needed. I have genuinely never had a massage where I had absolutely zero feedback or adjustments to give. I was so relaxed I fell asleep a couple of times. I immediately booked another 80-minute massage with him for next week before I move. Now I'm actually so bummed that I discovered Emmanuel right before leaving Long Beach because if I had found him sooner, I would have been booking with him every single week. Emmanuel is seriously amazing. One of the best massages I've ever had, hands down. The NOW Long Beach has an absolute gem on their team.

    Blue Moon Head Spa was a 10 out of 10! Actually, if I could rate it a 20 out of 10, I would! It was…read morean absolutely incredible, full sensory experience from beginning to end. They started with a scalp analysis, and I got to see all the gunk hiding on my scalp. New fear unlocked, but in a good way! I wash my hair frequently, so I truly had no idea how much buildup could still be there. Devon was so knowledgeable, and her hands were genuinely magical. Between the massage, the oils, the scents, and all the beautiful fragrances, I felt like I had escaped into a fantasy world with my eyes closed. It was deeply relaxing, luxurious, and unlike anything I've ever experienced. I left feeling completely refreshed, with the cleanest scalp of my life. I cannot recommend Blue Moon Head Spa enough. Absolutely incredible!

    I genuinely wish that I had a good experience here, given that it was so expensive. I figured this…read morewas a "when in Rome" situation, and booked the VIP Package. The photos are a bit deceiving. The whole floor, including the entrance, were very cramped. It felt like one wrong move, one sneeze and I was going to disturb or knock into other patrons. It is very tight! Unfortunately, I did not find this experience relaxing at all. Ultimately, it felt more like a glorified facial rather than a head spa. It felt like my technician was everywhere and nowhere, seemingly not remembering the order of things. During the treatment, I began to feel a line of burning along my upper back and arms. Come to find out afterwards that I experienced chemical burns that coincides where the table/water line meet. There were just so many products used. I am not someone who is sensitive to products so this came as a surprise to me. When I pressed for information on brands, type of lotion, etc. both the technician and receptionist seemed clueless on what products their salon was stocked with. For the price I paid and the experience I had, I can't justify returning or recommending this establishment to anyone else.
