    Nails
    Keira B.

    This place was close to my hotel so I wanted to try it, I got dip and my mom got regular, my nails are so pretty and strong and the products they used were amazing quality. The place was also very cute and had a nice vibe. For the nail that I got the price was good (70$) overall I would recommend!

    Nate and Cecelia took great care of us. So kind and treated us like we were family. Walked in on a whim and they took us in with open arms. Great conversation and a wonderful vibe. Everything was peel packed sanitized. Bagged the spa foot bath for sanitary purposes. Felt safe and clean. $60 for the gel pedicure. Worth every penny.

    Pointer that was already fixed once, chipping again

    I initially called to get a full set + eye brow wax. Made an appt and showed up 15 min later, per their request. An acrylic overlay was 1.5 hours, which I felt like was a bit much. I eventually had to tell the lady, I was on a time constraint and needed her to finish. I spent $75, affordable sure. Not even 24 hrs later, 1 nail chipped.. 2 days later, 3 chipped. Went back to get it fixed.. not even a week later, I've gone back once, and have 3 more chipping nails. It's unfortunate because they're one of the few in the downtown area, but unless you have all the time in the world to keep going back to get it fixed, I would not recommend it. Save your money and time and go elsewhere. Oh, and never got my eyebrows done because it was almost 2 hrs to get an acrylic overlay.

    Mani from one of the techs

    Had a great experience with my group! Everyone was so nice and the Pedi was very relaxing. Great conversation with all nail techs. I'll be coming back for sure! One of picture is from one of the girls in my group.

    The regular mani ($25) was alright. Could be better

    Mediocre mani pedi spot in downtown. I mean I can't really ask for too much, I was in town for a wedding, didn't think Saturday mornings would be busy for all nail salons that weekend. I called like a handful of spots with high ratings and reviews and they were all too busy to take 2 walk-ins. Good thing that this place has opening for a last min walk-in. Although the place was rated 4 stars, there was nobody but my friend and I in the store. Maybe it's just nobody goes to downtown on a late Saturday morning, since PDX doesn't seem to open up until late on weekends. We got the basic spa mani/pedi. I know I have short nails this round, but nobody asked what shaped I want my nails or if I wanted to trim or just file them down. The massage was so gentle, the guy who did my mani/pedi sped through the massage so much, he was ready to paint my nails while my friend was just getting her massage started. However, their massage chairs are nice, even the seats had the glute squeeze. Probably too much, because the tech turned it off even before he started painting my nails. I don't know what to say, the paint job was just okay for the price I paid. My pedicure don't look smooth, the edges were peeling. Within a day, my manicure already started chipping. I'm just out at a wedding, not even doing anything wild. I think my own paint job can last longer than theirs.

    I love this salon! The staff was friendly and my nail tech Cecilia took her time doing my nails. Very happy with my nails!

    Chipping paint

    Went and got our nails done on Thursday of this week. The staff was WONDERFUL!! Very kind and extremely professional. However my nails are a different story. I asked for gel manicure and no way did I receive one. The paint on my nails is already chipping and peeling off. One of my toes was also missed completely. I work typing at a desk all day, so I don't use my nails often at all. Gel usually lasts me ~2 weeks. It's been 4 days. Also please be warned, prices on the website are not accurate. More expensive in store. We got the urbantopia deluxe manicure and urbantopia spa pedicure with gel. Should have totaled about $115. Somehow my total was $135 in-store.

    Gel manicure

    Walked in without an appointment for a gel manicure and they were able to get me in right away. Ceci was very friendly, did a great job, and I was in and out pretty quickly. My nails turned out exactly how I wanted them. Will definitely be back!

    They didn't have enough time to give me a facial so Tracy opened up on a Sunday just for me.

    I did not expect to leave a medspa feeling genuinely appreciated. Perhaps the last place I went to…read morehad bad energy or something of that nature, but I truly felt loved and seen today. I went in for a consultation where I got to share all my aesthetic insecurities. Despite the vulnerability, I felt empowered to make the right decision for me. Further, my decision was treated with respect which made me feel more confident about moving forward. I ended up getting masseter Botox for my TMJ. My injector made me feel comfortable and even provided me with anxiety relief tools. She was precise, patient, and provided wonderful patient care. Unfortunately, my injector is no longer at this business but I'd be willing to see others who are also qualified and experienced. I also appreciate the complementary 2 week follow up because it alleviates any concerns about possible complications.

    Very similar review to the average of those here. It is about half and half. The studio is very…read morebeautiful, everyone is nice, but it is overpriced. I have only had Dysport, nothing else and recently went to an equally if not a better location for similar injectables at the Vancouver waterfront and it was a fraction of the price. You can also find Groupons (then cross check their Yelp reviews) for a fraction of that. I usually prefer to do lasers etc when I travel because it is MUCH LESS than of the price for the same treatments in the states, but I usually get Botox at home. Overall the vibes are weird, cons of treatments (other than dangerous) aren't really shared, or alternative options for the look you want are not shared (if not sold here) similar to other reviews. I originally tried Dysport in my massetur muscles in my jaw for tension. It helped of course but I did notice slight jowling after which I found out was correlated/caused from Botox in the jaw from tiktok vids. Needless to say, it isn't addressing the underlying problem and is just a bandaid. My last appointment here, I shared I wanted to look a little lifted and refreshed mostly under my eyes. I had done lasers and microneedling in the past which helped, but was short lived. Now -- more thanks to tiktok -- I probably need to fork over for sculptra or sofwave. This will NOT be fixed by injectables. My nurse told me she could do a little cheek filer and some other filler around my face. Mind you, I'm terrified of filler. Potentially I would want a facelift down the line which I have heard can complicate that process, but mostly I don't like the bloated look, it is often so obvious and then you become blind to it, keep getting it, and look crazy. Especially in the cheeks. I already have full lips so I don't need that. It was sold as if it would even out my face and give more balance, and I thought about it, did trust the nurse, who had great texture but who's own filler was still a tad overdone, making me a little wary. It's not like Botox where it wears off over months. You're getting it "dissolved" or whatever with little lumps lying around forever, so I wanted to take the time to think about it and ended up canceling. I could see others being very pressured and trying at the appointment even though I'm sure this is as overpriced as Botox and it gives you the vibes they're trying to hit a metric. They should give you options--even if they don't offer the treatment--for the result you are looking for.

They were friendly but not in that fake way that you see in a lot of the surface industry. I was offered a choice between tea and water and was given my paperwork to fill out. My facial with Terril was very relaxing. We went into the treatment room and discuss what my concerns were with my skin and what I was hoping to get out of my appointment. Terril was very attentive, asking questions along the way. One thing I really liked was that the table was heated because I've been having some issues with my back that make it uncomfortable to lay down so having that heated surface under my back made my appointment even more relaxing. My skin felt amazing when she was done, even though she had to do a few extractions. I was so pleased that I went ahead and scheduled an appointment for a few months out so that my skin will be able to recover from the upcoming summer months. I highly recommend checking out this wonderful little spa and I look forward to returning for my next facial.
