Urmila was previously part of "Kaya Beauty Spa" but is now known as Kashi Beauty Salon at the same location. She gives the best scalp massages and we always have something to chat about. Most importantly, she tames my unruly hair and leaves me looking like a hair model!

Urmila is a dream.. she is so skillful and knowledgeable about her clients. I have been going to…read moreher for over 6 years, I have recommended her to many of my friends.. I can't speak highly enough of her. I did a Brazilian Blowout with her 5 months ago and WOW! It still looks amazing and so easy to manage..

I was never a fan of facials but needed some help w/my mild rosacea. I started seeing Vicki and…read morefrom our first appointment I discovered what a true facial was supposed to feel like. Now I love coming here for my monthly facials and my skin has benefited greatly! I love that Vicki knows my skin and what it needs each time I come in; she customizes my facials based on what my skin needs in that moment and I trust her completely. Can't recommend this business enough!

Shelley was lovely and accommodating and her hypoallergenic dog was an amazing comfort. That said, I know she would accommodate anyone anti-dog. But I digress... Shelley was thorough and it didn't hurt all that much. I think it's her pleasant chair side manner, that cute doggie, and her state of the art equipment. Go to her!

I started going to Shelley a little over a few months ago…read more Shelley is great and she has a very accomodating schedule. I'm very glad I opted for electrolysis because it is the ONLY permenant hair removal process available. I thought laser was but you have to go once a year continuously. Electrolysis isn't all that painful and beats going to salons or doing messy home waxing.

I overpaid in March, 2024 (my second check was cashed), and have been called every two weeks since I discovered the error, and still haven't received my reimbursement!!

Dr Tarbet helps you plan and target what you want to focus on. She has a calm and positive approach. I have had excellent results from aesthetic procedures with Steve the RN and Madeline the Master Aesthetician. . The time spent with them is so pleasant AND results driven. Madeline is upbeat and able to keep a calm, professional and for me fun presence, even during longer procedures The office also runs monthly specials which can be wonderful Everything about the office (don't let the "downstairs location" dissuade you, when you open the door it is a very pleasant office ), EXCEPT( here is where I had to hold a star), the receptionist. I have had the experience on multiple occasions where Her demeanor and approach can be abrupt and off putting (she walked into the middle of my procedure and said they were closing/did I need anything-and I needed to pay for it... even though We were mid procedure.. so rude. (Especially since I'd tried to purchase before my procedure but it was "too busy") On another occasion my husband was waiting for me and asked to use the restroom and her response was "we don't do that here". ?? She also has been abrupt when checking in/out.. (no eye contact... "wait.. I'm busy..." so officious ".. This is not a typical positive calming approach for a first point of contact in an aesthetics office so just have a heads up ) BUT, the great treatments, interactions, care and results I have with Madeline and Steve with Dr Tarbet at the helm, keep me happy and coming back!!

Its easy to make appts because of how easy it is to commuicate with them by easy personal texts. The injectors are top notch! The PA there (sorry I cant remember his name) is an absolute pro. He explains recommendations with experience backed by well versed knowledge. The nurse injector is the sweetest ever. Shes soft, kindly conservative and a great conversationalist! All of the staff is wonderful, but my favorite person there is Deana. I beleive she is probably on the admin/sales/management team. She always greets people with a fun spirit, sends personal text updates about your account and available appts. Deana is the charm and organization that puts the cherry on top of a wonderful service. If I could leave 10 "stars" i would. GO HERE! Best wishes, LauraRae

Avoid this place at all costs - I reported them to the Washington State Cosmetology Board for their…read moreabsurd behavior and lack of safe practices. After a Sculptra laser treatment, I was told it was safe to return 11 days later for a HydraFacial. During that visit, the esthetician upsold me on a 20% salicylic acid peel and red light therapy. The moment it was applied, my face started burning intensely and had to be neutralized multiple times. Despite being told peeling wouldn't happen, my skin peeled badly and I was left with visible burn marks and discoloration. A dermatologist later confirmed that combining these treatments so close together is not considered safe (even a quick google search or chatgpt search will say its UNSAFE) When I asked for a refund on my remaining balance (I was sold a laser/hydrafacial package), the clinic refused to consider it unless I came back to be evaluated by their dermatologist -- after they already injured me. They stalled, passed the issue around, and took zero accountability. They're happy to upsell aggressive treatments, but when something goes wrong, you're on your own. Protect your face and go elsewhere. I still have multiple treatments outstanding that I already paid for that I will not be getting.

Minela paid close attention and has a very effective teaching style, she clearly cares about her reputation and it's obvious how she earned it. For Anne being brand new she did an absolutely amazing job and I'm thrilled to see how far she makes it in the industry. She paid close attention to detail, craved feedback and you could tell she genuinely cared about the work she was doing as well as customer satisfaction. Overall I'm VERY happy with the service my husband and I have received at Seattle SMP- just make the consultation, you'll be sucked in and happy you took the plunge. Thanks to this team of ladies I'm entering the summer with a high pony-tail and WAY less obvious hair thinning. Cannot thank you both, enough, for the confidence we've both gained.

I don't know what to say except WOW. Minela is amazing. Scalp Micropigmentation is amazing. If you…read moreare on the fence, hop over that baby and come to the other side. You will not regret it. My hair has been thinning for awhile. I've tried everything to fix the way it looks. I used Rogaine for a long time until it started burning my scalp. I've tried hair pieces. I've tried using tinted dry shampoo. I've tried microfibers you sprinkle in your hair. Nothing was really the answer, because even if I could get it looking mostly ok, I'd always have to take a shower and wash it out and then live with myself at home looking bald. So, knowing it was going to be expensive I decided to at least reach out and see what could be done. Google turned up MM Seattle with the five star rating and how could I go anyplace else? I'm so glad I found Minela! Here are some things to know: She's super cool but totally chill and easy to talk to. Do not be intimidated by how cool she looks! Her studio is clean and bright and welcoming. It's not a spa like some places and it's not a tattoo parlor, either. She is passionate about covid protocols. The large windows are open and there is an a/c vent blowing right in your face, which means she's not breathing directly on you. I was afraid it would be challenging to get there from Renton, or to find it, but it was neither. Just thinking about going on the West Seattle Bridge and navigating around that area gives me hives but it turned out to be really easy to get to. There isn't a lot of parking but once you get used to the layout, I never had trouble finding parking in the area. And, of course, there is the result! My hair has never been thick but in the last few years, it's been THIN. You can't see the dots at all, even though the overall effect is a full head of hair. I can put my hair in a ponytail or wear it down with a part. I can make a part anywhere, which is extra cool. So yes, it was expensive, but it was for me, and my only regret is not doing it earlier. If you have thinning hair but you're not completely bald, I wanted to make sure you have a picture for reference because when I was looking for examples, I only found one picture of long hair. You're welcome!!

Booking online was super easy; the building is on one of the main streets in downtown Renton. Be sure to have enough time to find street parking nearby and the building is locked so be sure to use the building code box to get access. The studio is so cute, well decorated and well maintained. Karli is wonderful! She's personable, has humor that I can vibe with, & skilled in her work. I noticed a few people mentioned pain and wanted to mention that may vary based on your pain tolerance and the esthetician's experience or ability. Karli is great and I barely experienced anything yet which is also i prefer sugaring over typical waxing :) What I thought was a unique perk as a first time customer was that she offers a free touch-up within a week of being seen (to support minimal growth apparently!). There's also a rewards system every time you come in.
