My experience was excellent and I found my hair stylist (Jemma C) the best stylist I ever got in Connecticut. Too bad, she left the place soon after I did my 2nd hair cut.

This place is located next to another popular salon (nail and wax room) in Wallingford.

The next day my forehead was burning and I had red bumps all over it . I called to find out what was used on my face and the ingredients and they said the girl that did my facial wasn't in but I will call you back after I speak to the owner . The girl calls me back and just stated it is all dermatology tested . Its been over a week and my face ( forehead ) is no better its actually worse, so I have to make a dermatology appointment now. The owner of the spa or the young lady that did my facial has not even called me once to see if Im better , or nothing . Thats not very good customer service at all , the owner should be ashamed of herself . Never again will I go back there , and to the woman that get facials find out whats going on your face before its done !

I'm writing this review on behalf of my mother who is not a yelper, but has been raving about how…read moremuch she loves this place for at least a good 6 months now: She originally went to Michelle due to a scar she had on her face from acne as a teen ager. Her prices were very reasonable compared to other med spas so she decided to give this one a try. Michelle highly recommended micro-dermabrasion as a treatment for this, and my mother has been going for this treatment about once ever 3 weeks since then - as well as some sort of a radio frequency treatment (can't recall the exact name). Since she has been going, her acne scars and large pores have been significantly reduced, and skin elasticity greatly increased. Michelle is a nurse aesthetician who is very knowledgeable about the treatments and products she uses. She is very good at explaining how they work and what they accomplish. She's also not one to BS you into buying a treatment you don't need. I have only visited Secret Beauty a couple of times myself, but I would like to add that not only is she a super genuine person, she's also a complete bad-ass. If you visit (which I hope you do!) make sure to ask her to tell you about the time she chased down some kid trying to steal her car.

The bottom line: I do not recommend this "business," if you would even call it that…read more The deets: Buyer beware. I'm not convinced this is a legitimate business. I could not get through to speak with someone to book my appointment, it was made by text message. I left messages and was not called back. Upon going to get a microdermabrasion treatment done, no one ever showed up and the "business" was dark. I waited 45 minutes. I called, I texted, I left a voice message stating I expected a CALL BACK that day. I received a text message six and a half hours after my appointment stating there was an emergency and they're sorry they missed my appointment. I'm not sure why they felt a text message would be an appropriate alternative to a phone call. So unprofessional. The next day I received a call stating the same thing, there was an emergency. I have multiple issues with this. Everyone has emergencies, I get it. But, I was not given the courtesy of a phone call, then the excuse of not having my information to get in touch sooner was used. What kind of business keeps all its contact information and scheduling on one phone that could be misplaced or with someone who has an emergency? Also, what kind of a business doesn't actually verbally call someone after not showing up, and then just texts them over 6 hours later? What a waste of my time. I purchased a groupon for this "business" and I called groupon to be refunded. When I called, they reported that the seller (secret beauty) had CANCELLED my Groupon already with no explanation. I don't know what kind of trickery is going on here, but this business IS A SCAM. DO NOT GO HERE. One last thing if you're still on the fence, sort these Yelp reviews by newest date. If you still think this business is legit, then good luck. You're wasting your time.

They also were very patient and gave me breaks if needed through the procedure. The treatments were uncomfortable at first, and I can happily say at my 5th treatment I've already had outstanding results. So sad I'm moving away, otherwise I would see the process through completely with them. I'd definitely recommend them to friends and family.

The best way to describe this massage is I died and came back to life. Wendy was incredible…read more She massaged from my head down to my toes, literally, even my toes. It's like she read my mind and knew the exact spots I really needed help with. The only thing I wasn't crazy about was this hard roller she used on my muscles. That hurt. But, I know I needed it because I was getting severe leg cramps in the middle of the night (from hiking and endurance training). She also got my pressure points in my head and massaged my scalp. Guess what.. I haven't a cramp or headache since!! She used hot towels throughout the experience, hot rocks and a warmer down my back when she did my legs because she knew my back needed extra work... she even used this oil that I swear is the best in the world! I paid for an extra 30 minutes because I just did NOT want to leave lol. Also, being that I am training for the Spartan race this year, I will be coming back as much as possible! What an amazing experience. Thank you Wendy.

Came across this business due to pure serendipity, but I'm so glad that I did. Marilyn is one of…read morethe sweetest most thoughtful aestheticians I've ever met. She really helped me diagnose. My skin needs based on what I told her as well as her expertise. For example, I told her that I have combination skin with a troublesome T-zone and briefly described to her what my skin concerns were and what my daily skincare routine was like. Based on this information, she was able to diagnose me or at least recommend two masks that I found really helpful in helping me to achieve the holiday glow I was going for. She recommended a Goji berry mask for the hydration and anti-aging properties and then a golden honey mask for the T-zone. As a beauty influencer, I find it refreshing when expertise meets the customer experience. We started the facial with a massage, and it really helped me with the holiday stress and knots that I had especially in the upper shoulders. She also did an extraction for me, which isn't really usually what I do, but I know that my fiancé and others love to watch those ASMR medical videos where they pop, pimples and extract, blackheads and whiteheads, so that's probably a really satisfying process to watch. I usually take my hygiene very seriously as well as my skin care routine so it was so surprising to see how much gunk she could extract and I was in awe. The process of getting a beauty treatment involves a lot of talking and venting and I really do feel like I unintentionally used this session as a much needed therapy session, but I also developed a lifelong friendship with both Marilyn and Melissa who introduced me to the business. This holiday season I will be going up to New Hampshire to spend Christmas with my future in-laws so I was really aiming to impress this year and Marilyn really helped me achieve a look that enhances my own natural beauty and makes me feel radiant and sparkly like a snowflake. I honestly couldn't recommend her more and I'm deeply considering using this business for my own wedding. That's how much I believe in her and the quality of care I received. P.S. The only minor critique that I have which is easily fixed is that during the winter, especially due to the shed it is a little bit cold in there so preferably a larger or industrial size space heater would work, but she was such a sweetheart and brought hot water from the house and still made it a really comfortable and an enjoyable experience despite the elements so just for consideration, I give that a 10 out of 10.

I've been loyal to a few therapists during my time there (until they leave) and have loved their work. Monica is my current therapist and I'm not sure if this page could fit all the wonderful things. I've had back issues since college and was hurt additionally at the chiropractor. I was hesitant to go or do anything that could leave me in more pain. My working theory was that massage would be a gentler option. This was definitely the right path. I'm sure when I leave Monica is exhausted from all the surprise knots my back has in store, but she has always done an amazing job. I personally require deep tissue and she's the girl for the job. Massage Envy has an array of therapists for each level of need so there is someone for everybody. For my purposes, Massage Therapy (and Monica for that matter) are essential to me living a less painful existence.
