Girl on the Go Wellness Spa

I visited this place today for the first time recommended by my gf. I'm thoroughly impressed! From the moment I walked in, I felt like I was in a serene oasis, surrounded by calming decor and soothing music. The staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming, making me feel right at home. My back treatment was top-notch, the staff listened attentively, tailored and delivered a truly exceptional experience. The facilities were spotless and well-maintained, fostering an environment for relaxation and healing. What truly set Girl on the Go apart was the exceptional service and genuine care shown by the entire team. I left feeling rejuvenated, relaxed, and completely refreshed. Whether you're a busy professional or just need some me-time, Girl on the Go Wellness Spa is an absolute must-visit in San Diego. I'll definitely be back!

I’ve had facials at serval places in San Diego and girl on the go was my preferred experience by a long shot. From the minute I walked in I felt so taken care of. Dana welcome me with treats and set the tone of the visit with an intention that was extremely thoughtful. The space is beautiful and Dana is extremely professional in everything that she does. I had a million questions throughout the process and she had an educated answer for all of them. My skin looks great after the treatment and she made a plan with me for follow up visits. I’ll definitely be back!

Dana, owner of Girl on the Go Spa, is truly the best! She made every appointment feel like self-care, a confidence boost, and a chance to catch up with a good friend all in one. Her skill, warmth, and attention to detail are unmatched. I always left feeling refreshed and glowing — inside and out. I'm incredibly grateful for the care and confidence she’s given me this past year. Highly recommend!

Dana is the best - hands down! I can’t believe I haven’t left a review yet. I was new to San Diego and it took me almost 2 years to find her but I’m so glad I did. She’s so kind and smart - and makes my skin feel great. Highly recommend booking with her if you’re on the fence!

I’ve been seeing Dana for almost 10 years, & she’s the best aesthetician I’ve ever experienced. I’ve visited other places when I needed a last minute facial, because she tends to be pretty booked out, & I’ve never been able to get results that come close. Every time I leave my appointment, all the congestion in my face is cleared & I have an instant glow. She answers all of my questions & concerns with so much knowledge. She assesses your skin & personalizes your treatment based on your needs. I learn something new every time I see her! She’s trained her staff herself, so if she’s booked, they are also wonderful. This is THE place to go, & it is worth booking ahead, trust me!!

I’ve been going here regularly for a while, and my appointments with Dana are truly something I look forward to all month! She always treats me exceptionally well and goes above and beyond. She’s very knowledgeable on human anatomy and wellness. The clinic is always spotless and smells amazing. Everything about it is perfectly relaxing and helps you deeply unwind.

Dana has been giving me facials for years and I can’t see anyone else! The couple of times that I have just left me wanting to see Dana again sooner. She’s so smart, passionate and thorough about skincare. 100% recommend her for all your skincare needs.

Dana is wonderful. Relaxing, effective and a very welcoming environment. Have been 3 or 4 times. My go to for facials in San Diego.

From the moment I stepped into Girl on the Go Wellness Spa, I was enveloped in an atmosphere of tranquility and cleanliness. Dana took my daughter and I to one of the session room. After a thorough examination of our skin, the she recommended a deep moisturizing treatment for me and an exfoliating treatment for my daughter. The attention to detail and personalized care we received were truly exceptional. The deep moisturizer left my skin feeling incredibly soft and hydrated for days. It was exactly what my skin needed to restore its natural glow. My daughter's exfoliating treatment was effective for my teenage daughter, leaving her skin looking fresh and rejuvenated. Dana is knowledgeable and skillful, and passionate about her job and her spa. We both left Girl on the Go Wellness Spa feeling pampered and refreshed. Dana went above and beyond to ensure our comfort and satisfaction throughout our visit. We can't wait to return for another day of relaxation and indulgence! I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a right treatment for your skin but also mother-daughter escape from the stresses of everyday life. I can't wait to return!

I got a gift certificate from a cor worker and I'm so glad I did! The place is so cute and inviting. It is like stepping into a relaxing zone. :) I decided to do the 90 minute green goddess facial. The products felt so good. Super relaxing and my skin feels so healthy and clean! :) Dana is very professional and makes you feel welcome. Highly recommend! Absolutely loved it!

Wow, Dana is truly deserving of every 5-star review here. I suffer from vascular skin issues and rarely get/trust facials but Dana took the time to listen, ask questions, and customize products that were gentle, soothing and hydrating. This was truly the best, most personalized facial experience I have ever had and can't recommend Dana enough! I can't wait to go back and start integrating Girl on the Go facials to my skincare and wellness routine.

If I could give this place zero stars I would .... She was very difficult to work with to move appointment ok then she makes me drive across town 30min late to my appointment because my daughter needed to be picked up from school due to cough and fever. She's super rude she rather have you show up no matter your emergency then for her to push it she holds grudge how last time you also tried to reschedule like we don't have emergencies im literally typing this from ER room so I look like I am in shape to go to spa yet she won't refund you or reschedule you . I had friend call while my husband drove me to ER and he thought she was so rude and entitled

I love this place, Dana is amazing and I always feel refreshed and relaxed after every visit. Truly an amazing experience, this is a must try if you haven't already.

Dana keeps me looking young! In an effort to age gracefully without botox or fillers, I get facials monthly. She is the best at what she does and I've been to many. I love the product lines she uses like Epicuren, Ilike and Lucrece. They are super effective and a little goes a long way. The spa is very zen which you feel as soon as you walk through the door. And bonus-she's the sweetest!

Had my first 75min custom facial with Dana while in town for a few months. My skin before was dull, textured, inflamed from wrongly using tretinoin (fun fact, melanated skin folk beware the trends!). I left with dewy, hydrated glowing skin. I legit have a new nose... next day I woke up and was in shock at how bright and smooth my skin was. I also recommend taking the product suggestions too as the vitamin c serum she recommended was a GAME changer. Not to mention Dana is a warm, subject matter expert in all things skin care, and, I was impressed at her sensitivity and asking for consent to provide the scalp massage. As a black woman, that was the icing on the cake of respecting boundaries of cultures not your own. Perfect facial! Perfect spa! Absolutely inspiring and knowledgeable woman. Thank you!

Amazing facial!! Everything about it was perfect, even the extractions! Highly recommend Dana

I've been coming to see Dana for all things skincare for 15 years now, and there's simply no one better out there. Aside from being incredibly sweet and fun to spend an appointment with, Dana is incredibly invested in her craft. The facials I've received from Dana are perfectly curated to my skin type and leave me with a healthy and glowing complexion. I would happily recommend Girl on The Go to anyone for any skincare need!

I absolutely adore Dana and her relaxing spa. I have rosacea, and I can't emphasize enough how much Dana has helped me manage it. I have been using the products she recommended for six or seven years now, and for someone approaching 50, I'd say my skin is pretty happy. She absolutely loves what she does, and it shows in the way she treats her clients. I can't recommend her enough.

Dana truly has the magic touch. Ever since I started coming to her for monthly facials, my skin has been flawless and glowing. She is super thorough and makes sure that you leave happy. Her space is super peaceful and relaxing and Dana's energy is just always so sweet and welcoming. You won't be disappointed treating yourself here :)

This review is long overdue! I have been seeing Dana for custom facials since March. I have issues with acne and Dana has been doing an amazing job helping me heal my skin and build a skincare routine that works with my sensitive skin. I also love the vibe of the spa! It's both luxurious and cozy. Dana is the sweetest, I am always excited to go in for my treatments. Highly recommend!

Dana is the best. I recently started monthly customized facials and am so pleased. My skin feels and looks wonderful. The products she recommended enable me to maintain the glow with a simple routine! Her space is wonderful - calming and very clean.

I realized it had been about 3 years since my last facial and saw amazing reviews on Yelp from this place. I logged on and scheduled an appointment - the earliest being about two and a half months from the current date. Not ideal but hey, i thought it was worth the wait. Then, happily, I received a call saying there was an opening during the same week. So happy to have gotten in so soon! I had a custom facial from Dana. She immediately made me feel welcomed and calm as we talked about my skin needs. She took such great care and I appreciated the balance of easy chat and quiet moments throughout my 75 minute facial. Now, the results...12/10 definitely would recommend. Hands down, the best my skin has ever felt after a facial. When I left the salon, my skin was glowing. Throughout the day, my skin continued to feel better and better. As I washed my face in the evening I couldn't believe how smooth and hydrated my skin still felt. I have found my new salon and esthetician. Yay!!

The good -Dana! -professional -appropriately priced -calming space -range of services -painless extractions -visible results The bad -appointments fill up quick (this might actually go in the "good" column, shows how sought after her services are) I'm happy I found my new spa

I loved my facial treatment - excellent extractions - and I splurged and purchased everything she used/recommended. I am so pleased I did! I am one month into my new care routine and my face has not looked this good in years. Clear, soft, and glowing at 42.

The facials here are excellent! Dana is very knowledgeable and your skin will feel transformed. The only place in San Diego that I go to for facials!

What can I say? Dana's the best! So glad we have her and GoG here in Golden Hill. Dana is kind, interesting to talk to, and knows her stuff! My skin always feels GREAT when I leave her spa. Thanks, Dana!!

I couldn't recommend this place enough! Dana is amazing and very dedicated to learning updated practices and techniques used all around the world. I've never been more relaxed in my life than I was leaving this place!

This was my first time at Girl On the Go, Kelsey walked me through my facial consultation and I felt she immediately felt my facial needs. It was a lovely experience and I left feeling a state of serenity.

I was having my body treatment before my big day. Overall I was very satisfied with the relaxing vibe. But hopefully next time I would be able to know in advance that my hair is gonna be so creamy after putting on so many cream and hair oil. I did feel that the lady was in a rush to leave. But still recommend with a very private and green spot if you want to escape the city.

Parking is not the worst but give yourself at least 10 minutes to find a spot. The spa asks you to wear a mask which I have no problem with but i know some may not like that. I received a brazilian wax with Dana who is the owner of the spa. The spa is beautiful with all the right vibes, great smells and great decor. Dana was very thorough and my skin was a fan of the products she used. I'll be back for a facial.

Dana , You are such an angel. You are also amazing at what you do, and truthfully, no one compares. There is a reason that there is a long waiting period to get in. She IS that good! Honestly , I don't even mind bc it's worth the wait. My skin has been absolutely glowing since I've visited. even my husband noticed how much my skin had changed. That in itself should be cause for this review Thank you Dana for all you do. I can't wait to come back.

Dana was very professional, extracted, cleaned, massaged, soothed, educated and moisturized my skin thoroughly. she recommended products and how often I should return for facials. Overall, one of the best facials I've had in a long time. Prices are above my normal budget but honestly i could see difference in my skin immediately and the following day. Great patient and informative esthetician I would recommend you try her services. and I must mention the spa was neat, clean, and nicely decorated with product and trinkets for purchase.

This is such a pretty spa, a pretty spa to make you feel like the most pretty you after you get pampered! Come early so you can shop their jewelry, candles, & other treats. Customer service was great. I was given an option of beverages & decided on the Black Earl Grey Lavender iced tea & it was light & refreshing. I received the Deep Tissue Sculpting, 60 minuets for $80, & it was heavenly. The room was so peaceful, the music was so soothing, & my masseuse was terrific. She was gentle where she needed to be & aggressive to get out the many knots I had in back. My body felt incredibly relaxed! They have membership options for massages & facials.

I purchased a gift card for my mom on Mother's day. I called towards the end of May to schedule her appointment but was very difficult to get ahold of anyone and left several voicemails before I finally was able to talk to someone on the phone. They weren't very flexible with scheduling my appointment. So I was placed on a "waitlist" that was only about 2-3 weeks from what I was informed. I called back around July (My mother's bday) to check on the status and once again it was very hard to get ahold of anyone. Someone reached out to me after a few days and again weren't able to accommodate my mom into their schedule even though it had been long past the wait time I was told. I then asked if I could get a refund for the gift card I purchased so I could try to find a different pace where they can accommodate to our schedule needs. It was denied and again was told someone would reach out to me once they had an opening. After never receiving a call/email I called again on September and was told that there still wasn't any openings for the days I had requested. At this point I was very irritated since this was suppose to be a Mother's Day gift and she had not yet been able to use due to their lack of flexibility. I had to ask my mom to request a day off work and booked her into their next available day during the morning. She was pleased with the service on her day of the appointment. I had asked that they use that gift card at check out to cover the cost including gratitude but instead was charged to my credit card. It has been about two days and I haven't received the refund to my card. This whole experience was extremely disappointing and inconvenient . I wouldn't recommend this place unless you have a more open schedule.

I rarely write review, but this place deserves my exception. I cannot wait until the Stay at Home order has been lifted and Girl on the Go can safely reopen again. My body and skin are missing out on my monthly treatments and needs a caring touch to make me look and feel young and amazing again. I used to have dry skin and bad breakouts, but after visiting Girl on the Go and coming up with a treatment plan my skin has never looked better, nor have I had to need to pop a whitehead ever again. I used to only get facials at this place, but I was so impressed with the way my face radiated and glowed after each visit I now get facials and body treatments once a month. Each time I visit I'm treated like I'm royalty, like I'm the only person in the room that matters, all focus is on me and my skin care needs and wants. It doesn't matter what I do to my skin at home, nothing can compare to the results I get once I leave this place. I leave this place feeling confident about myself and how my skin and body feels. 10 out of 10 would recommend to anyone needing a little TLC and personalized attention.

Very clean, really cute comfortable space. The building is nice, and the spa is easy to find. Plenty of parking all around on the street. Really enjoyed the Herbal Renewal treatment. I was so relaxed after, and I got to take home the herbal poultice!

I had a facial with Kelsey and it was lovely. She is friendly and knowledgeable. The spa is really cute and chic. They use fabulous organic products that left my face feeling hydrated and cleansed. I will definitely come back!

Girl on the Go is a small, beautifully decorated spa. I came by for a massage. In the email I received after booking my appointment online it said to arrive early for two reasons. One, parking can be difficult, and two, to enjoy a glass of wine or water before my massage. Parking wasn't as bad as I had anticipated. I circled the block around the spa a couple times before finding parking on E Street. Finding the entrance to the spa is a little tricky. You'll see the sign right outside of the building. Just following it back through the walkway past the salon and the picnic table, and you'll see the spa in front of you on your right. Upon arrival, the receptionist was on the phone booking a doctor's appointment for someone else. She didn't greet me or ask me to wait. I wondered around while she finished her call looking at the items the spa sells (cards, clothes, make up, accessories). She then checked me in and I sat on the couch and waited. I arrived 15 minutes early and was only offered water with or without grapefruit. I opted for the grapefruit water. I wasn't offered wine which is sad, because the email promised it, and I was looking forward to it. There was an unopened, not chilled bottle of Korbel on the drink cart, but I wasn't offered that. The massage itself was just fine. I asked for more pressure once during the massage and I kind of got it. Additionally, I am still a bit confused on how the timing of 90 minute massages work here. So, that's what I booked and while the massage therapist got me from the waiting room at the exact minute my massage was schedule, we spent a few minutes talking about my concerns before I got undressed and we began. However, we finished exactly at 90 minutes after I was retrieved from the waiting room. So, here is my concern - does the 90 minutes include the 5 minutes it takes to chat with the therapist and get ready? From my previous massage experience at other places it never has. Was I robbed of 5 minutes that I paid for? I still honestly don't know. The prices here are pretty reasonable ($115 for a 90 minute massage), so perhaps I don't really care. I guess if anything, I just found it peculiar.

Love the cozy vibe and Dana made my tired skin look shiny, fresh and new!

I found this place when I was trying to buy a gift certificate for my coworker as a thank you. After reading so much about them, I was tempted to get one for myself, but I couldn't justify why I would need a massage. Finally! They have a promotion for the massage enhancement that lasts till the end of the month, so I used that as an excuse and to finally give myself a chance to relax! Something I should mention is that they don't have their own parking, so you might want to go a little bit earlier to find parking spot. Besides that, everything about this place is perfect. I had Natalie and she was very knowledgeable and patience. I instantly felt very comfortable with her. I didn't think I was going to be able to sleep because of how tight my shoulders and neck areas would be, but trust me, you're definitely going to relaxxx. All in all, GO. 10/10 would go back again.

I feel like the luckiest girl in the world because I got Dana as my esthetician! She was so open and sweet and we had natural conversation throughout my 90 minutes customized facial. I'd suggest you get a 90 minute facial so the esthetician really reads your skin and can take care of you! She did an amazing job and really got to know my skin. This is super helpful cause I've been really struggling with my skin lately yet she help answered all my questions! It felt like I got a long overdue deep clean on my face and it feels amazing- and the price point is unbeatable! Definitely will be a repeating guest.

I wish I could write a better review. I was excited to go to GOTG today because of all the wonderful reviews, however some of the extractions were quite painful and too aggressive for my skin. I have had many facials in the past and only one other esthetician was this forceful with extractions. I noticed tonight I have several red spots on my nose (broken blood vessels) . :( I've gotten these in the past when I've been too aggressive popping my skin. They tend to not go away on there own and I've needed laser treatments to rid of them. I'm disappointed that this occurred with a professional extracting my pores. My suggestion is to tell Dana to go lighter on the extractions.

This is by far my favorite place to get a facial! I love how they only use organic skin care products and they personalize each facial for exactly what your skin needs at the time. My skin has never looked better.

I've been seeing Dana for years and I absolutely love her and what she does for my skin. She's the sweetest and the best!

Leah is absolutely amazing ! The first time I went there we just did a deep tissue massage. The second time we did a deep tissue massage and fire cupping. I've had cupping done by multiple people, and she is my absolute favorite. She also is very knowledgeable, my back and neck were very messed up, my left leg wshorter than my right. She referred me to tons of things to help with my pain. I started going to the chiropractor she referred me to. She also told me what type of pillow to try out, salt floating bath in San Diego, all these things to help me out short and long term. I moved away but every time I'm in San Diego I hit Leah up and definitely make sure to get in to get a killer deep tissue massage and some fire cupping done !

Love being pampered with a massage and good facial. Nice experience will definitely return again. Thanks tO the hard working staffs!

I finally got a facial for the first time. Dana was great, she is such a sweet lady to talk to and very professional. Prices are reasonable for the treatment you're getting. Noticed a difference and felt very good after. Definitely going back!

Ask for Jenna! Best Brazilian wax in Sanny D. The place itself is super cute, very clean... refreshments available as soon as you walk in the door. Tip: if you're driving, park on E street and walk over

DO YOURSELF A FAVOR AND BOOK WITH DANA (the miraculous skin fairy) to achieve your skin goals! Let me start by telling you that my skin has always been a huge insecurity of mine. I've struggled with acne since I was in the 6th grade and no matter what I tried, my skin never cleared up. Although I was lucky enough to be considered a "less severe" case, I still had it bad enough where I felt extremely uncomfortable to be caught without makeup. Whether I was on camping trips or at the beach I always made sure to bring makeup to cover up my unsightly hyperpigmentation and pimples. I consoled my teenage self by telling myself that when I became an adult maybe my skin would clear up then but that was far from true. In college I spent tons and tons of money on every skincare product suggested to me from every Sephora employee. I scoured reviews and best seller lists, trying anything and everything to clear it up. I once invested more than 600 dollars on a skin care regimine by a high end skincare line but NOTHING WORKED. I then consoled myself with the hope that maybe once I graduated college and was less stressed and got more sleep, my skin would improve then, but the improvement was far from my dream skin. Then, I made ONE OF THE BEST DECISIONS, I've ever made and booked an appointment with Dana at Girl on the Go. I had a wedding/family reunion in a month and was incredibly self conscious about seeing my highly critical Asian family. Dana assured me she would get me wedding ready and within 2 visits my skin was dramatically different! The few products I picked up at her recommendation WORKED WONDERS! I felt pretty confident with WAAAAY less makeup and my makeup finally laid flat and smooth. I felt flawless! No more noticeable bumps and ugly texture coming through my foundation and for the first time in my life I was actually RECEIVING COMPLIMENTS on my skin! I had originally planned to just get facials to prep for the wedding but I was so pleased with the results I was sold! I signed up for a spa membership my first facial back and picked up a complete skincare regimine by her because the results are unreal! Dana is so knowledgeable and passionate about skin. She loves to share her knowledge and explain what she thinks works best and why so you can feel confident in the products and what treatments you get during your facial. Absolutely none of her recommendations have ever failed me. Seriously, the regimine she has me on now has worked MIRACLES but she has never pressured me or pushed me to buy something I'm uncomfortable with purchasing yet. When she recommends something to you it is suggested sincerely and with genuine care and concern for your skin and skin goals. She honestly just wants to help people shine and feel comfortable in their own skin and it shows. She's incredibly sweet and a joy to visit. Not to mention her massages during the facial are heavenly. It's a real treat! I truly feel lucky to have met her. Not only do I sometimes go out without makeup, but I do it confidently and don't even mind taking pictures! Pictures without makeup?? I never thought in a million years I would say that let alone do it! See the pictures for yourself! I've been documentating the changes this whole time and though I still have some imperfections (from years of being a serial skin picker) I am really estatic about where my skin is right now! I don't have any pictures of my skin at it's very worst because I was too sad to see it but you can still see the progression!

I was asked to come in for my first appointment at an earlier time to accommodate the salon's schedule which I was more than happy to do. I was the only person there since I was the last appointment of the day which was nice. I'm still new to waxing, but Dana made me feel super comfortable and walked me through the process before beginning. She gave me different options for how we could do the service and recommended products to help with my skin. I plan to come back and would recommend her waxing services to anyone.

This little spot is absolutely adorable - it gives off all pretty, peaceful, calm vibes. Everyone I spoke to was friendly and welcoming, and I loved the glass of wine at check-in. Making an appointment was super easy, and I appreciate the night appointments that work well with my work schedule. I came in for a brow/lip wax last night, and my waxer was right on time. The wax itself was easy and as painless as any wax can be. Howeverrrr, as I'm getting ready this morning, and really looking at my brows for the first time, I am pretty disappointed. I asked for a cleanup (I hadn't waxed since January) and am left with the smallest brows of my life. At that, they are uneven, misshapen, and have a couple of waves where the wax went into the brow she was trying to keep. I'm frantically trying to fill in with pencil before work, but I think this may be the worst brow shaping I've yet to have. I should have looked more closely last night, but always feel awkward examining a wax in front of someone, especially since there's nothing that can be done after the fact?? I will probably give this place another try with a different waxer/more clear instructions than 'cleanup', because it was so convenient and sweet, butttt fingers crossed my brows grow out quickly :( -the girl with skinny, squiggly brows :( Update, 5 days later: attempting to fill in uneven brows every day is the worst (usually I only do brow make up a couple times a week), but without pencil they are crazy small and uneven. Whatever post wax oil was used also made break out (normally not an issue for me, but I'm all bumpy near my brows and lip still). I'll never take a good brow wax for granted again :(

Great experience and I would highly recommend! Also they are taking really good COVID precautions, it's a very safe setup.

Thank thank thank you Natalie! I went in last night desperate to get some relief from the upper back and neck pain I've had for three days after a workout sprain. She used the CBD balm on me. She shared tips on how to sleep, and what to do at home. I bought the Charlotte's Web balm before I went home. I woke up with less in pain. Did some stretches and cardio. And now I can turn my head more than I could this morning with less pain. I really appreciate the work you do and will be back for cupping next week. Thank you again for helping me reduce my pain

I have had a lot of back pain for many years due to scoliosis. I decided to try the hemp massage for pain hoping to find something that would help my poor spine and the muscles surrounding it in my lower back. I saw Natalie and she gave me what was probably the best massage of my life. She is a very skilled therapist! The use of the hemp oil and the hot stones just made a great massage even better! I felt like a new person when I left. The lobby area is also a cute little shop and I was greeted warmly upon arrival. The champagne helped too! :) I can't wait to come back!

Okay. I've been looking forward to writing this review... There's a reason there are only 5 star reviews here people! Best massage I've ever had. I booked a 60 min custom for myself, and a 90 min custom for my friend as part of a girls' day in San Diego. A little hard to find, when I called the staff was super friendly and helpful with directions and parking tips! (Street parking.) Inside this place has such a relaxing vibe, right from the entryway. Cute retail. Best massage. More than 24 hours later I still feel relaxed and completely comfortable. I don't what else to say other than, I've legit told all my friends to come here, and this is the only place I ever want to get a massage now...We both added the CBD oil enhancement and it was worth every penny. Already dreaming of my next visit...and we have decided this is how all our girls' days start...Enjoy!!

I didn't think I was a massage person before coming to Girl on the Go! Thankfully my mother-in-law got me a gift certificate here because I am now converted! I had a 60 minute, full body massage with Natalie. Within the first 5 minutes I was upset I didn't book a full two hour massage! Natalie was AMAZING. I asked for more work on my shoulders and neck and she was able to relieve a lot of pressure. My massage just got over half an hour ago and I already can wait to go back!

Updating this review to 3 stars because during my last visit I received a facial by Dana which seemed to be okay minus the pain from the "extractions" she did. I ended up leaving with my face red an tingly which I thought normal. But later, found it was visibly scarred all-over as if scratched by a cat. Not okay. I don't know if there was an unfamiliarity with African-American skin or what, but if my skin was fairer it would have looked even worse so...I don't know. I honestly am not even sure what was being extracted. I trusted her though, being licensed and all, but I didn't have any visible acne going in. It's a bummer because It was only my second facial ever and I really do enjoy their massages. After reading the reviews and viewing a mani/pedi session while waiting for my massage appointment, I think I'll just stick with massages from here. Still on the hunt for a one-stop shop that works for me. Facials are supposed to make your skin feel better and you feel more beautiful. Not the case here. I had to recover with Neosporin and cocoa butter.

I enjoyed my experience here. It is a darling little boutique and spa; however, it lacks amenities . That is my only reason for the 4-stars. The prices are comparable to hotel spas with dressing rooms, steam rooms, hot tubs- etc. my service was fantastic. I felt like my massage therapist listened to my concerns and used her knowledge and expertise to attack these tight areas. The boutique is lovely and I purchased several robes for gifts and two pajama sets.
