My favorite esthetician, Karina Molina, recently moved to Springfield, VA and the new location is…read morean awesome space! I've been patronizing Karina for facial services for several years, which has greatly benefitted my skin's complexion and overall health. Karina's Beauty Spa is now in an office park minutes from 495 and 395, and conveniently off of Backlick Road. The new office is a true sanctuary and Karina has created a warm and welcoming environment with the color scheme, comfy couches in the waiting area, and a self-service beverage area. In addition to customizing facial services for men and women, Karina will also provide guidance as to how care for your skin. I have referred several folks to Karina and everyone has been impressed with her knowledge and professionalism. Check Karina's website for pricing for services as well as to book appointments.

The spa rooms are cozy with fabric tapestries muting the sound. The people outside half-whisper so that sound would not travel, and the experience is pleasant and relaxing with little conversation, unless necessary. Karina was accommodating and factual. She provided useful advice and made various suggestions. If it were not for her move from falls church more south, I would definitely return. I even upgraded a basic facial to add dermaplanning, which was great.

I went here after my regular spot didn't have any openings anytime soon and was going through a…read morerenovation. This close to my wedding I needed to try a new place and not miss my monthly facial appointment. This place is walking distance and has good reviews so I decided to give it a try. They had the glow gift package for $499 for 3 facials which was perfect for my needs since I only need 2 but didn't want to pay their a la carte rate of $200 per facial. This way each facial costs about $167 which is more reasonable. Their facials last about 50 minutes and they play soft versions of familiar pop music so it's not your typical relaxed spa experience, rather an uplifting session of getting pampered. They have an AI assistant called Gloria which scans your face as you come in and shows you issues you have with your skin. I believe the facials are also customized based on this AI analysis. The esthetician was quick and knew her work. She didn't assist me in putting my stuff away or getting me a blanket or showing me things. I had to figure them out and she was a little late. But the facial was good in general and she did microdermabrasion, collagen stuff, and a couple of masks with exfoliation. Overall the facial was relaxing but not beyond amazing for the price I paid. My skin also looked the same after the facial which isn't bad but there wasn't a glow or anything like I expected and usually get after facials. No blackheads were removed or addressed and no special red light treatment was provided like my regular place does. I will use up the rest of my sessions but I'm glad I didn't sign up for the annual membership which is impossible to cancel since they charge $600 for cancellation.

From the moment I walked in I KNEW this was going to be an amazing experience! First impression is always the welcome of the staff and the reception area. Both were immaculate! I was greeted with an enthusiastic welcome and an encouraging smile!! Loved that! After a very brief wait in the serene/relaxing reception area, I was led to the back. I was given an outfit to change into (you're fully clothed during the Thai massage) and it was soft and very comfortable! I had an "idea" of what a Thai massage was so I wasn't blindsided when I walked into the room and saw the pallet; that the massage was to take place on, on the floor. This type of massage doesn't take place on the typical massage table. The whole vibe of the room was a mix of a relaxing spa and HEAVEN! My therapist came into the room and the magic started!! While stretching my body, she found knots on my body that I didn't even know I had! She contorted my body in ways I didn't know it w could bend! She then got a walker and began walking on my back...my legs...my feet, my arms...my hands...you get it! The only place she didn't walk on was my head (they offer a separate massage especially for your head and I plan on checking it out as well)!! The head massage is called an "Indian head" massage . My body is usually riddled with constant pain (especially my hips and legs). Can you imagine my excitement when I got up from the floor and there was not a pain in my body to be found?!!! I got the massage on May 12th and to this day the pain has not returned (it is May 19th)!!! They close out the session with a wonderful cup of tea! *Ahhhhhh* I have now added this massage into my budget (I want this once a month for sure)!! I'll come back and update this review with the details of the massage for my head!!

Wow, I didn't even know you could get such perfectly natural looking eyebrow tattoos. I absolutely…read morelove the bespoke brows and lash enhancement services that Angela did for me. I don't normally wear makeup, and prefer a natural look. I usually only filled in my brows to put myself together, and even that was a hassle by my standards. My eyebrows are sparse and do not grow in the full shape I would like. I found Angela's work on her instagram page and knew she was exactly what I hoped to find. She finds the unique shape that works best for each individual, and somehow works magic to make it look like you're not wearing any makeup or tattoo. I've had my tattooed brows and lash line for several weeks now, and they feel like ME. I haven't filled in my brows since. I look back at before pictures, and now they look so sparse to me, even with brow makeup. Not only is Angela an artist, but she is a joy to work with. I was unsure of the exact shape I wanted, and she patiently worked through several iterations that I wanted to try, tweaking and giving an expert perspective on what proportions would work. Choosing a makeup tattoo artist is a huge decision. This is the shape of your face!! I'm not sure I would have been brave enough to continue asking for tweaks with a different artist until it was absolutely perfect, but Angela was so kind and patient. You can tell she is passionate about her work and ensuring her clients receive the best possible service. Thank you so much for taking care of me, Angela!
