    I've been going to flawless beauty for more than 10 years and the level of quality and customer…read moreservice is unmatched. I've had my eyebrows and facials done by both Liz and Bo and both have a gift for bringing out the best look in each individual. The location is near oldtown Salinas with plenty of parking on the street and in the parking lot. The interior of the salon is warm and inviting and gives you a sense of relaxation. On any given day the salon will have cucumber iced water, candy to snack on, and one of the ladies will pamper you with a warm neck wrap while you wait for your appointment. Currently I see Bo. She is timely, professional, and does an outstanding job making sure your eyebrows look their best. She is flexible with her schedule, easy to contact, and has late afternoon appointments available. Her warm greeting and calm demeanor help to carry the feeling of relaxation through the whole experience at Flawless Beauty. I highly recommend her. Make sure you sign up for their text/email distribution a they have fun events throughout the year with freebies, discounts, and classes to take advantage of. It has been my place to go for waxing and facials and have been pleased with the customer service and quality of work. I give it 5 stars.

    Two years ago, this place was recommended by a colleague and it has become my monthly self-care…read morespot. Liz has created an environment where one can fully relax, alleviate stress (in love with the lavender neck wraps) and feel refreshed again. My skin, my eyebrows, my pores and my spirit absolutely love this place!

    I have been coming here for a few months and I have nothing but positive and nice things to say. I…read moreonly get pedicures and I love coming here. The co owner, Helen, is a sweetheart. She's super accomidating. I do recommend to make an appt because they can get busy and if you don't want to wait and for sures be seen I ALWAYS make an appt. They clean everything really well and have a lot of disposable items that are actually thrown away right away unlike some other salons. I highly recommend this salon for pedicures. I haven't done any other service here but I can say that the pedicures are *chef kiss*. They give you a complimentary drink the start and you get to relax with calming music and the nail techs seem to actually enjoy being with each other. They are laughing together and smiling with each other. Overall positive, clean, and inviting salon. Thank you Helen and all the nail techs!

    I went recently based on a friend's recommendation while on vacation. I usually paint my own nails…read moreso I don't have a lot of experience in salon protocol, but each time I've gotten gel paint at other places then techs put sunblock on my hands before exposing them to UV light. Not this time. The job was so rushed when I held the menu to check the prices the tech pulled my hand and told me to sit down. She didn't offer me a drink like they advertise in their Instagram post even though we were seated right in front of their mini fridge and I saw other people being offered. She wasn't friendly and didn't even let the timer run out on the light before demanding I put the other hand in. It looked ok at first but the polish peeled off the next day. It was a waste of my money and I won't go there again.

    I booked the Mother's Day special Mom and me package for this Saturday before Mother's Day. The…read moregirl on the phone was extremely kind and friendly that was appreciated. However, when we came in, we did not get greeted - like at all and it was unfortunate because there was two ladies at the front desk Yolanda and Amarie (Amarie was helping another customer and her service seem great. I wish she could've been the one helping us.) on the flyer for the package. There were some add-on services that I had inquired about and that girl Yolanda pretty much told me she didn't know and never got back to me. Didn't ask if Manny the masseuse did not look into it for me it would've been a bust. He offered an alternative service as far as a foot mask. That was an even better option for us so we were pretty thankful for that, but if I had left it up to the other girl, it would've just been when it was . confusion and a whole bunch of nothing Yolanda was the girl that helped us again no greeting She kind of just waved us to the back, pointed at the robes ask us our shoe size and that was really it Once we were changed standing there awkwardly, she walked me into a room and left my mom in the hallway and then asked me. Did you tell your mom to come -I looked at her like girl I don't even know what's going on so why would I tell her to come once we went to the room? It was like again we were kind of just sitting there like what's going on a few minutes later she brought in a glass of champagne for my mom so we hung out there for about 30 minutes before they took us back for the massage. I think it was a really big missed opportunity to say "hello Welcome to aqua blue. My name is so-and-so thank you for booking this package" or happy Mother's Day whatever but she literally didn't greet us at all. My mom looked bummed that it was starting off with a really lackluster experience I paid $400 for this package You would think once they saw my reservation for such a package they would've at least acknowledged it in some way By the time we got upstairs, I was pretty frustrated with the service we were receiving -thank goodness Ruben and Manny were really friendly and helpful. It probably would've been lower stars if Manny wouldn't have been so unbelievably sweet, caring and compassionate. My mom was really struggling getting off her jewelry and nobody would help her. I have really long nails so I was struggling. Manny was the only person nice enough to attempt to help her and put it back on after the massage was completed To be honest for $400 I was pretty disappointed. Manny did a great job and I am very thankful for him. My mom was really happy with Ruben. But did I feel like I was there getting a luxurious experience for Mother's Day absolutely not! Did I feel like we were bothering them with a groupon package absolutely! The advertise these chocolates that they had, I asked about them they didn't have any available. It just seemed like a lot of missed opportunities and we were there the day before Mother's Day so any of the ladies that went on actual Mother's Day We're probably super bummed that they didn't have any of the accoutrement offered. Sad part is the following weekend. I took my mom to happy feet down the street and she got a foot and neck massage and I got a neck and shoulder massage and the total was $70 and to be honest I felt more relaxed when I was leaving there, then I did with aqua blue . I'm kind of glad I decided to do that because honestly, I was going to book with Manny again because he was amazing but with those prices to not be happy was pretty unacceptable. My dad passed recently, so Mother's Day had proven to be harder than expected. That's why I wanted to do something extra special for her this year by booking the spa. We have been to massage envy before and that's honestly where I was gonna go this time, but I was trying to do an elevated experience that was outside of a corporate place but honestly, I think even the value at massage envy is greater than here because again with those prices to not be happy it's just crappy honestly it took me a while to write the review because I didn't want to seem Like I didn't enjoy the time with my mom. I absolutely did. I just didn't enjoy the lack of customer service- if I was paying what I paid over there at happy feet this would've been a five star review but $400 later to leave unsatisfied.... All I'm saying is I'm down to spend some money and I'm down to spend some good money on quality stuff. I just feel kind of ripped off.

    I went to Aquablue for the first time today! I got the signature tension massage (75 minutes). My…read moremassage was with Lulu. I called and I was going to be running 5-10 minutes late. They were so accommodating and understanding. I understand they cannot always do that but I really appreciated it this time. The atmosphere is very calming and they offer a very comfortable robe to use while you are there. The facilities are super clean as well! My massage was absolutely amazing. Lulu worked on all of my focus areas plus identified other areas that she felt were really tense. It is a deep tissue experience so make sure you like deep tissue work before you book this massage. I one hundred percent would recommend this establishment to anyone! Super reasonable prices and great services! I will one hundred percent be back!
