My whole experience as a total newbie was great and I have been back several times since she reopened with precautions. No more waxing for me. I just wish I had discovered sugaring years ago! Don't let the name throw you off- I was confused at first and thought it was a waxing place, but I'm so happy I read in more detail. Wonderful local, woman owned business to support.

From the moment I spoke with the receptionist on the phone, until the moment I left, I was completely satisfied. As a resident of Cromwell, I've driven by Green Lotus many times, but today was the first time I decided to give it a try, and it was a great choice! I called Green Lotus late in the afternoon inquiring about an appointment for facial waxing either tonight or tomorrow night - and surprisingly, they were able to fit me in tonight. When I walked in, I was greeted with a smile from Monica, and she offered to hang up my coat and get me a drink. My appointment with Vanessa went very well - she introduced herself with a handshake and conversed with me throughout the appointment. I have some skin sensitivities and allergies, and Vanessa discussed these with me prior to my appointment and added them to my record. It even printed that I had an allergy on my receipt - so I'm very pleased to know they take that matter seriously! She really took her time and didn't rush through the service. If I were to describe both employees I dealt with, I'd say: Processional & Friendly. They both deserve a ton of credit for their great customer service - something that seems rare these days. The salon is very clean and the waxing room had soft, relaxing music in the background and a soothing fountain. I thought the price was reasonable and ended up booking a future appointment. If you want to get amazing service from a wonderful group of employees, check out Green Lotus Salon!

These people are very unkind. I mistakingly missed my appointment due to circumstances beyond my…read morecontrol. I have metastatic cancer and unexpectedly had to go to the hospital that day. I should have called but everything happened so quickly that I honestly was not thinking about the days appointments. I was unable to pick up my phone when they called but when I realized what had happened I called right back from the hospital. They do not answer their phone so I left a message and sent an email explaining what happened, I received no response and they charged me $185.00 for missing the appt. My message stated that I understood I would need to pay a cancellation fee and asked if under the circumstances if they could refund part of the $185.00 Well as I said there was no response. I would have been a very good client for these people as I would have utilized a number of their services on an ongoing basis. I did make a mistake but I think this is a very bad way to do business and a terrible way to take advantage of someone. Sometimes things just happen!

Between the pandemic, pregnancy and life craziness (and let's face it - being the worst at self care), it's definitely been quite a while since I've gone in (in the past for events) but there have been a few times where I was lucky enough to get my eyebrows threaded. This is one of just a few places I've gotten threading done so I don't have a ton to compare it to but my experiences here were amazing. So professional and precise. From salon aesthetics to a full menu of beauty/skincare treatments and pampering sessions, Evelyn knows exactly what she's doing. I would trust her team with absolutely any service.

I'm an experienced massage client and was so glad to find Touch of Bliss after my old massage therapist retired a few years ago. They have taken lots of precautions in reopening and I felt completely comfortable during my massage and upon entering and exiting. Everything was perfectly organized and I'm so happy they are taking such care with their clients. All the staff has always been helpful and kind before and after Covid. I highly recommend booking at Touch of Bliss! They are fabulous! The owner Erina is a special person and I'm happy to support a woman owned business. So many small businesses owned by women have been impacted during this difficult time that I feel it is more important than ever to support local and not big chains such as massage envy. You won't get a massage there like you will at A Touch of Bliss!

We checked in and sat for only 5 minutes or so before being greeted by them.

Chance absolutely nailed it, I needed stress relieved in shoulders, pressure was perfect, he checked in periodically to ensure it wasn't too much.

I always look for good reviews on yelp and google before I go anywhere. This Salon offered both positive reviews and reasonable prices. They were extremely accommodating from the minute they answered the phone, which I appreciated. They squeezed me in for a consultation with Karen, who was very sweet & easy to talk to. We scheduled an appointment & I was very happy with the results, with the salon, and my over all experience. At the end of my service, I received a discount for being a first time customer in addition to 3 other coupons for future 1st appointments. I have gone back twice now.

This location is conveniently located next to Nordstrom rack, TJ max, and Burlington coat factory. So if you have time to kill before or after your wax, you won't be bored. My wax technician was Valerie. She was awesome! She really took her time and made me feel comfortable throughout the process. She was so good I couldn't believe she was new.
