    Clip ins
    Elizabeth P.

    Vanda deserves 10 stars, I got two sets of curly clip ins from her to match my natural texture. The curl pattern matched my texture exactly and she had a wide range of options to choose from. I am beyond satisfied with the clips ins I got from her, they were a reasonable price and so easy to put in.I recommend anyone I know to her for hair needs. Book an appointment with her asap she has extensive product options and offers many hair style options. Hurry and make your appointment!!!!

    New hair do!

    Vanda is amazing! She has been doing my hair for many, MANY years. Even when I moved to the East Coast for a short while, she always offered help hair care advice. I haven't worn an install (wave) for a few years. Well, I decided to dive back in. I had so many questions on the actual bundles of hair texture, grade, price, etc. In true Vanda form, she answered all of my questions with confidence and knowledge. The pic of me below is a day or so after my install. I'd also like to mention that the hair is soft, no tangle, and no shedding. Thank you, Vanda! Tisha

    I love going to Vanda! She practices out of her home but it is professionally setup just like a small salon. I am new to the area and could not find a salon that specialized in African American hair. I called several businesses that stated they were multicultural but once I sent pictures was told they did not have anyone who "specialized" in my texture. Thank God a friend heard my complaining and told me about her. Here are my before and afters.

    Installed Brazilian natural wave.

    I don't usually write reviews, but my experience at Glow Derm Solutions was honestly next level. I…read morebooked a consultation with Nurse Crystal not really knowing what to expect, and it turned into one of the most informative and personalized skincare experiences I've ever had. The first thing we did was the Aura Reality face analysis, which completely blew me away. It's not just a basic skin scan -- it creates a full 3D image of your face and analyzes everything from pores, texture, and pigmentation to redness and early signs of aging. You can literally see what's going on beneath the surface, not just what you notice in the mirror. What stood out to me was how detailed and data-driven everything was. Instead of guessing or pushing random treatments, Crystal walked me through my results and explained exactly what my skin needed. The scan even highlights things you wouldn't normally catch, like underlying sun damage and texture issues, which made the whole consultation feel very legit and personalized. Nurse Crystal herself is amazing -- super knowledgeable, professional, and genuinely cares about getting you results. She has that perfect balance of being honest without being pushy, and you can tell she really knows what she's doing. She broke everything down in a way that actually made sense and built a treatment plan specifically for me. The whole experience felt very high-end and modern. Clean space, advanced technology, and a level of attention you don't get at most places. As a guy, I appreciated that it wasn't overwhelming or salesy -- just straightforward, results-focused, and tailored to me. If you're serious about improving your skin and want something beyond a basic facial, I'd 100% recommend Glow Derm Solutions and Nurse Crystal. This is definitely not your average med spa.

This is definitely an investment, more than I expected, however I am believing in the process more and more. I was reluctant at first bc I do keloid easily. Never on my face, more so chest and back. But they reassured and assessed my skin when I had concerns. Krystal and Laura have been very helpful and professional throughout. I have pitting scars and know it's one of the hardest scars to get rid of. I've done a total of 4 sessions and I do get it now that it's more of a marathon than a sprint. I'm not where I want with the results, but I do see after the 4th session that the depth of the pitting are getting filled, and some areas are minimized. I do have 4 more sessions and will update on the outcome!

    PLEASE BE CAREFUL SHE WILL TAKE YOUR DEPOSIT MONEY IF YOU TRY TO ADJUST YOUR APT!!!!…read more SHE HAS CONTINUOUSLY HARASSED ME FROM HER PERSONAL NUMBER WHICH I HAD TO BLOCK. SHE THEN DECIDED TO CONTACT ME FROM ANOTHER NUMBER. THIS HAS GONE ON FOR 3 WEEKS NOW I wanted to like Anna as she comes off as sweet and does a decent job with waxing. But as they say you get what you pay for. When I tried to reschedule the day before due to having my car under maintenance (I even sent her proof of my receipt) she said she would take my deposit and charge me extra for a different day. She sent me her policy which you can see clearly states below nothing regarding rescheduling prior to your apt day. She then argued with me, updated her policy and blamed me for messing with her income. This is not only unprofessional but distasteful. Anna continued to tell me that I shouldn't be canceling (which I wasn't doing) because it hurts her business. After I told her I won't be coming back she doesn't get the clue and will continue to harass you. I've never experienced anything like this from a business provider before. I also worked in customer service my entire life. I hope Anna can get a grip and learn how to run her business with more professionalism. Taking clients money without having clear guidelines about changing appointments is essentially stealing.

From the moment I walked in, I felt completely at ease. The space is tranquil, clean, and beautifully curated to instantly calm your mind and body. I came in for a HydraFacial with dermaplaning, red light therapy, and a soothing face mask, and let me just say: WOW. Every step of the treatment was done with such care and expertise. My skin was glowing by the end--but the experience was so much more than skin deep. Let's talk about that facial bed... it was honestly next level. So plush and comfortable, I felt like I was floating on a cloud. Not exaggerating--I totally fell asleep mid-treatment (and I never nap during facials!). The whole session felt like a peaceful escape from the outside world. What I love most is that Pore Decisions truly understands that self-care is essential--not a luxury--and they make you feel that from the second you walk in. No matter your age or stage of life, taking time to nurture your body and mind is one of the best investments you can make in yourself. After just one visit, I left feeling radiant, relaxed, and more connected to myself. I can't recommend Pore Decisions Medspa enough--this is your sign to slow down, take care of YOU, and book that facial. Trust me, you deserve it.

I recently had a facial with Malai, and it was one of the best I've ever received. From the moment I walked in, I felt welcomed and relaxed. The ambiance is peaceful and clean, and the staff is friendly and professional. Malai is a true gem. She took the time to assess my skin and really listened to my concerns. The facial she provided was not only deeply relaxing but left my skin looking bright, smooth, and hydrated. Malai's technique is both gentle and thorough, and I could tell she uses high-quality products tailored to my skin's needs. She even gave me personalized skincare advice for maintaining healthy skin at home, which I really appreciated. She also did not "push" me to purchase anything which I really appreciated. Almaden Valley Aesthetics also offers an array of amazing treatments beyond facials to keep us looking healthy and at our best. From skincare to body treatments, they use the latest techniques and technology, all while creating a spa-like atmosphere that's inviting and professional. It's clear that the team here is passionate about helping clients feel and look their best without the pressure to over sell. If you're looking for a place that combines expertise, care, and a relaxing atmosphere, Almaden Valley Aesthetics--and especially Malai--should be at the top of your list. I'll definitely be back, and I highly recommend them to anyone in need of quality skincare and a pampering experience!

When I went to my appointment, they told me they didn't have Dysport and only had Daxxify. I ended up getting Daxxify twice and paid $500, which was almost double what I usually pay for my forehead treatment. It didn't work at all--no results. (I personally recommend not wasting your money on Daxxify.) I called them several times and asked for a refund. Eventually, they gave me another appointment for a Dysport treatment at no cost. But even after that, I still didn't get satisfying results. After all these injections and spending $500 just for my forehead, I personally do not recommend Ava Rejuvenation. I will definitely contact the Better Business Bureau about my experience. Please do your research before choosing where to go for your treatment.

She removed an incredible amount of blackheads and whiteheads, and I never felt rushed.
