If you are looking for a massage or facial, Sensora Spa is THE go to place in Lawrence. After…read moretrying to find a massage therapist that could replace the one I had back in Chicago, I had just about given up hope until someone suggested Olivia at Sensora. And from my first visit, I was hooked by the skilled staff, and their attention to what I needed to have worked on. Given I travel a lot, I always have a kink in my neck or a twinge in my shoulders and Olivia is outstanding at listening to what I am trying to solve and then getting it done during my visits. Located in a nondescript office building on Iowa, this spa is a great find! Once you pull open the door, the sense of tranquility immediately hits you. Services are done on reservation only but they have a great website that makes it easy to schedule exactly what you want. Lara, the owner, is the person to see for a facial and came highly recommended by my friends. The service rooms are quiet, and if you go, you have to check out the restroom as the toilet truly earns the moniker "The Throne". If you are looking for a spa that will focus on your individual needs, then check out Sensora Spa. It's my new "go to" place!

Masks are required to enter and receive service. Nikki is sanitizing well between each guest and always does your arch according your facial structure. There usually isn't more than 3 people in the store at a time and this includes the service provider! It takes less than 10 minutes and lasts 2-3 weeks depending on your hair growth. I strongly recommend threading to ladies and men as a non chemical alternative to waxing!

Since he is the only physician in his practice, arrangements with his staff are efficient and convenient. During the current pandemic, such efficient and trustworthy service is especially important. In contrast, before calling Dr. Buxton's office for an appointment, I called a different practice having a few physicians. I kept getting busy signals and could not even leave a message. I then called Dr. Buxton's office for an appointment, and all arrangements were easy and rapid. In the future, I will continue seeing Dr. Buxton annually.

Liz is great. I went to her several years ago, and had a great experience. I went about a month…read moreago, and it was a lovely relaxing experience. I had the hydro-dermabrasion done, and it wasn't as painful as microdermabrasion is. I was slightly disappointed when I got home, because my skin actually looked a little *worse* than it did before the facial. I have problem skin: acne and oil, but also dry skin and signs of aging. I'm 34. However, it turns out that it was just my skin purging toxins. I washed my face in the morning, and it looked radiant. Amazing! Smooth, blemish free. Awesome. A month later, I am ready to go back again. My skin has definitely improved. I think with regular treatments that I will be very happy with my skin.

I had a good experience here getting dip and extensions, which was only $50 (seems a bit lower than what I'm used to). I believe it was the male owner who did my nails and he was talkative and friendly. I think he paid better attention to detail than some other nail techs I've used before, and he checked with me several times throughout the process to make sure I liked the color and length, which sometimes doesn't happen at salons! However, I do see some of the complaints about the place being disorganized and a bit messy. Not a five star spa experience by any means, but if you want decent nails done at a decent price, I don't think this place is half bad. I wouldn't rely on walking in here--make an appointment to ensure you aren't waiting a long time, because when I went there were only two people working.

I contacted Mary Stewart at GP Styles for my sister to get her hair cut (5-6 inches cut & styled)…read moreand I wanted balayage done in my hair. I would not recommend anyone going here because Mary canceled on us 4 times in which resulted in meeting with her 2 separate occasions, with nothing but stress and disappointing results. We scheduled to meet up with her 2 weeks in advanced so we could have our hair do's complete before our Spring Break Vacation in which she proposed she would be able to complete. She claimed she had experience in coloring Asian hair and she knew balayage techniques but the end result came out more like a dip-dye or an ombre which was not what I wanted at all. Even the color came out incorrectly as we decided on an Ash Blonde and my color came out as a light brown with an orange tint. She charged me $100 promising to meet me for a second sitting before my vacation, but was unwilling to meet me on the days we agreed upon. Our first meeting was scheduled for Thursday she wanted to color my hair and cut my sisters on the same day but she canceled because she had stomach flu, which is completely understandable. We agreed to meet next week on Friday. Friday, she cut and styled my sister's hair and did a great job, we didn't color my hair because she did not have the right colors (we agreed on an ash blonde color in my hair) and I always want the artist to have the right tools for the correct results. We scheduled for the following Sunday. Sunday morning she canceled 3 hours before our meeting due to unknown circumstances. I wanted to give her the benefit of the doubt because she did such a great job with my sister's hair, so I agree to reschedule with her on Friday. On Friday we finally started the coloring process. All was well until the end result which came out more like a dip-dye or an ombre which was not what I wanted at all. Even the color came out incorrectly as we decided on an Ash Blonde and my color came out as a light brown with an orange tint. She recommended we meet in 2 separate sittings because my hair is very dark, but once I requested to meet for the 2nd sitting to achieve the ash blonde color we agreed upon, she advised me to "wait until the next day because it would be brighter outside, thus I would see the color better" and she kept on saying things like "your hair looks so great, its the perfect color, it looks so good on you" and only asked me how i felt once throughout our whole session. I asked her if she had any openings the next day, Saturday, so we could complete the ash blonde color. She said she had a completely free schedule to do my hair BUT SHE wanted me to wait on making a decision because SHE felt I would like the color better once the sun came out, but she was willing to meet me on Saturday if I wanted a 2nd sitting. On top of that she charged me $100 for the session, I paid thinking she would follow through with her promise of meeting with me before my vacation to complete the process. I definitely texted her the very next day on Saturday morning, but she said she did not want to meet with me because she didn't want to commute from Lecompton (her home town) to Lawrence to do my hair, even though she promised she could meet with me. I told her 2 weeks in advanced and even reminded her that I had to leave on Vacation that following Wednesday and could not meet on Monday or Tuesday because I had work all morning/afternoon and had to pack all evening. I requested to meet on Sunday because she had openings then, but for some reason she refused to meet with me and would only meet on Monday/Tuesday of which she knew and understood I could not do. I asked her if she could recommend someone else at GP Styles to complete my color, but she didn't want to and couldn't recommend anyone. I couldn't get a hold of her manager as she is on maternity leave for the next few weeks. I am very frustrated because I really wanted my hair done for my vacation in which Mary promised she would do. But her lack of skill in balayage technique and her constant flakiness and rescheduling was not worth all the trouble and hassle as well as the price I paid for her service. On top of the $100, I was also charged $20 for a trim in which she literally cut less than 1/2 an inch off. I have never been charged $100 for half hair color session, I thought I would change it up and go elsewhere but I was wrong and will be returning to my previous hair salon, Hair Color Studios (who have never charged me $100 for half finished hair). I hope anyone else will never have to experience the horrible customer service and hair color service I experienced here. I would give GP styles an extra star for the great haircut my sister received, but upon her request i did not due to all the stress I endured through all the rescheduling an throughout my vacation. Please do not go here.
