I live in North Park and found Peel Simply Skin after noticing their sidewalk sign. I figured I'd…read moregive it a shot, and it turned out to be one of the best decisions I've made for my body. Julie is incredibly professional and takes the time to understand exactly what's bothering you before she even starts. We talked through the areas where I was dealing with chronic tension and pain, and she explained how she'd approach the session. The massage was exactly what I needed. She worked out knots and tight muscles that have been bothering me for a long time, but somehow managed to keep the entire experience relaxing from beginning to end. Great pressure, amazing technique, and a smooth flow that never felt choppy or clinical. I signed up for the monthly membership before I left because it honestly offers a lot for the price. The gratuity is already included, you get a complimentary enhancement every month, and seeing the same therapist regularly just makes sense if you're serious about feeling better. I also asked about using my HSA. While they're still looking into accepting HSA payments directly, they were more than happy to provide a detailed invoice for reimbursement, and I appreciated that the owner immediately started researching it after I asked. Julie only sees a handful of clients each day so she can give everyone her full attention. Do yourself a favor and book ahead because I don't think openings will last long. If you're a first time massage client, you'll also get 15% off your first appointment. Highly recommend.

She was so thorough and kind in her approach. Truly she spent like 2+ hours with me and it felt like the most attention to a sensitive topic for me that any doctor/esthetician has given before. She's incredibly knowledgeable- even just looking at my skin without any explanation from me. I will be trying to go back for sure! I was mid breakout and she stopped it in its tracks. I also bought a product that I'm excited about and it was very reasonably priced. I would go back and buy products just understanding there's no insane mark up or spa price tag.

I had a brow lamination and stain with Adanna today, and it was hands-down the best lamination/stain experience I've had. She was amazing - so kind, easy to talk to, and genuinely attentive to what I wanted. She was incredibly detailed, checked in with me throughout the process to make sure I was happy with how everything was looking, and really went the extra mile to make sure I absolutely loved the final result. At the same time, she was super efficient and respectful of my time, which I really appreciated. My brows came out BEAUTIFUL. And Adanna is far from the only wonderful person here. Afsana has done my henna brows and is consistently amazing - they always turn out beautifully. Dahlal is also fantastic with threading. There is just a really high level of talent here across the board. I also have to give a special shout-out to Vetsa at the front desk. She is exactly the kind of person you want as the face of a salon. Whether I've needed to reschedule an appointment or had something I wasn't completely satisfied with, she has always been incredibly kind, pleasant, accommodating, and genuinely invested in making sure everything gets taken care of and that I leave happy. Even over the phone, she has such a warm and lovely demeanor. The salon itself is always clean, welcoming, and has great energy. What has kept me coming back for so many years, though, is that I know I'm going to be taken care of - and if something ever isn't exactly right, they genuinely care about making it right. Basically, if you have brows and would like them to look amazing, this is the place. Eight years later, Beauty by Dolly is still my go-to for all things brows, and I can't recommend them enough!

TLDR: Do NOT have the tech Lyssa work on you! She is…read moreextremely rude, dismissive, unprofessional, and sloppy. Full version: I've been coming to this location for laser hair removal for years. I've treated two previous areas and I'm currently working on my 3rd. I've always had consistent, thorough treatments, until last night. My most recent session with Lyssa was the complete opposite and honestly was a complete waste of money. I had gotten off work at 4 from north county and traffic was bad so I was about 10 minutes late for a 5:15 appointment. However, the clinic was not busy and I didn't see anyone after me so there was absolutely no reason for the session to be so rude and rushed the way it was. The first thing Lyssa said/asked upon us meeting for the first time was if I was there to treat my lower-face treatment. I told her I had never done that before and that maybe she was looking at another Jessica's chart since my name is so common it happens often. When Lyssa starts the laser, she asks if it was painful and I say yes, so she asks if I want to turn it down and I say no, just turn the air up higher. She said it was already at the max setting which it wasn't (I know exactly what that setting feels like after multiple past sessions), but she insisted it was without checking. The entire treatment took under TWO minutes, and she did not go over any area twice, which is the standard every other technician here has followed. That's a $70 per MINUTE session. She asked if I needed aloe and then left the room. Cold. Abrupt. Dismissive. Such a disgusting attitude. I walked out feeling like I she ripped me off and treated me like trash. I should not have to pay full price for a session that was rushed, incomplete, and performed with dismissive attitude and zero care. Instead, she gave me a horrible experience. In my way to the receptionist, I see Lyssa in the hall and she quickly turns into an EMPTY room then closes the door behind her. When I get to the receptionist, I ask for the managers info, which I only do in extreme cases. The receptionist asks me, did you not get the treatment? And I said, "Exactly... That's how short it was!" If the clinic wants to maintain its reputation, there needs to be consistency in training and expectations. What I experienced with Lyssa was unprofessional and below the standard of this location. Sometimes employees get an entitled and rude attitude when they've been somewhere for a while. The manager was supposed to call me back today and has not done so yet.

Thank you for ruining all previous facials I've had -- because this is the one I'll be daydreaming…read moreabout for a long time. This place transported me to a whole new world. Right in the heart of North Park, this small private studio always looked closed from the street, but that's part of the charm. You can't just walk in -- everything is booked online, and it feels intentional from the moment you arrive. I came specifically to try a buccal sculpting facial for the first time and knew this was the place to do it. Wow... what a different experience in the best way. I left feeling snatched and sculpted. I'd absolutely recommend this for anyone dealing with TMJ, migraines, or facial puffiness. The muscle‑tension release was exactly what I needed, and the bonus is you leave glowing and lifted. The experience is so thoughtful. You're given a door code to enter, and the waiting room is private and cozy -- with a drink waiting for me with my name on it. Then I was greeted by the aesthetician and taken back to the treatment room, which was intimate, warm, and relaxing. I really prefer facial studios that lean into a calming, holistic vibe rather than the cold, medical‑office feel, and this place nails that. The 90‑minute facial was pure bliss, with plenty of sculpting and massage incorporated. Even the bathroom matched the aesthetic -- relaxing, intentional, and beautifully designed. The attention to detail here is truly appreciated. A magical experience from start to finish.
