I did a google search, called this place and they told me I could just come in. I spoke to Gabby who was already great just over the phone. I walked into the place and it had a very warm welcoming vibe. Even though I was a stranger, all the barbers had a joint conversation and kept the humor going. Very cool place. When I was done, I was told there was a record store upstairs if I wanted to go look around. I didn't find anything to purchase but it was still a super cool setup. One cool thing was one of the barbers/stylists had her bearded dragon just laying out in the sun on the stars. I would highly recommend if you are in the area and need to get a haircut! A++++

I would not recommend this spa to anyone looking for a professional experience. I scheduled two…read moreappointments for deep facials. To start, the business was closed when we arrived. After calling several times, we finally got an answer. The representative, Nichole, stated that she was not aware of any appointments (these had been booked online with a paid deposit two days prior.) Nichole informed me she would be there soon and would be asking another employee to assist since she was well behind the appointment time. Over 45 minutes after the appointment time, Nichole arrived. Upon arrival, she informed my daughter that she did not have the tools to complete the booked service. Also, the AC in the building was broken so it was extremely hot. She then started the service with what tools she had and there being no AC. At this point my daughter texted me because she did not know what to do so my husband called and told her it was pointless to continue the service. He requested that all services be halted immediately and a refund be issued. Nichole agreed and that was the end of the call. Fast forward an hour, we find out that Nichole continued the service on the minor without parent permission and proceeded to charge $55 for the facial. (Online- she advertises $50 for a normal facial and $65 for a deep facial that she already admitted she didn't have the tools for.) We tried to reach out for a refund but she refused stating that she did the service, even after she told us she would stop, and that the service has to be paid for. She said they didn't have a need for any extractions that were needed but it didn't change the fact that we had already asked her to stop because she didn't have the correct tools and the kids were burning up. We are really reasonable but this is not a professional spa and the situation was handled poorly.

Dear reader, I moved…read morefrom Los Angeles to Jacksonville as a social worker affiliated with a well known veteran's service organization and was in desperate need of self care! I tried several places in Jacksonville (med spas, private businesses, etc) and they didn't provide the same kind of luxury in services as I found in places like Beverly Hills and LA. Luckily, I found Carla and Embrace Your Own Esthetics, which was a game changer! Carla REALLY knows her stuff and is quite knowledgeable; she blew me away actually with how individualized her care was: I have gone to her now for eyelash extensions, facials (including a facial using her amazing, top of the line:high-end machine that has done wonders for my skin) and back facials. (I'm also planning to make an appt for a paraffin treatment and eyebrow wax when soon). The amazing thing about Carla is that she cares. In fact, I am pretty sure she is an angel. She has done many things to accommodate me and I get the sense would do so for you, and anyone that goes to her studio for her services. For example, she scheduled me in early in the morning last minute and late at night a couple times per my request as if it was no big deal and that meant so much to me given my ridiculously busy and rigid work schedule so I could enjoy some self-care! Also, her pricing is the best I have ever seen. She offers specials and when I asked about this out of shock because she is so talented, she was also so kind about this; when I asked about it, she said she wants to be sure people from all socioeconomic backgrounds have the opportunity to feel beautiful and/or engage in self care!! Finally, I started to really trust her and her talents, so I asked her to lead an event as a philanthropist for the veterans service org I mentioned earlier. She agreed and then she changed her entire travel schedule around so she could do it and offered quite a bit of goodies and support for clients who have almost nothing because she really cares. If you are a regular with skincare and keep it up, I truly believe you'll love her and appreciate her talent even if it's a change from your regular provider. On the other hand, if you are new to skincare and self care, I think you will love her and appreciate her services. She caters to individuals specific needs and skin care goals like I have never experienced before with such a pro and and will answer any question and help problem solve any skincare question or issue you may have for best possible outcomes for your skin. That said, although she's so humble, I probed a bit and learned she has also been trained in LA, Japan and just got back from Greece essentially training others because she is so skilled as an esthetician. Lastly, her studio is safe, cute and lovely. I fell asleep a couple of times as she worked on my skin and it was amazing and deeply relaxing. (As an aside, also, a month of seeing her, two colleagues have mentioned how great and glowy my skin looks)! As a social worker, our duty is to look out for members of our community, so I say this without any hesitation: don't wait and do yourself a kindness and book an appt (she has such an easy way of doing it on her website)! You deserve it! I truly believe you will be so pleased with your treatment outcomes, Carla's beautiful studio, her astounding attention to detail, your needs and Carla herself (who is so very thoughtful and attentive). She's been the best esthetician I have EVER been to! My skin looks the best it ever has and so are the eyelashes I get to rock because of her attention to detail and patience.

She's a perfectionist and really took the time to make sure that I was completely pleased with the result. They faded very nicely and are still looking amazing a month later. Her website is very user friendly and scheduling an appointment is incredibly easy and convenient. Her location can't be beat either- 5 minutes away from the daycares on Argyle and very close to to the ones in Oakleaf. There is ample parking and you can completely avoid the traffic on Blanding by cutting through Oakleaf. She offers so many services including waxing, lashes, tinting, facials, etc. If you look on her Instagram account beautymark_by_lanakaye you'll see she does stellar lashes and brows. Dropping the kids off and treating yourself to some self-care has never been easier or more convenient!
