Ling Mak Beauty Spa

So my friend and I have been really wanting to get korean facial, and see what the hype is about. I, of course, found this spot through the popular TikTok videos and booked an appointment very easily through text message. My friend and I were a little nervous, given the mixed reviews. People either really love it, or had a bad experience. For us, the experience was perfection. I was extremely impressed with how amazing it was start to finish. Everyone was very friendly to us as soon as we walked through the door. I expressed my concerns with how sensitive my skin is in certain spots, and asked them not to do an extractions except for the blackheads on my nose. They were very understand. I had Amy for my facial, and throughout the whole process she asked if I was okay, making sure I was comfortable through the whole thing. The neck and face massage was perfect. The whole thing was an hour and a half and we got the first time discount of $79 for the hydrating facial + aqua peel. If you’re nervous to book, just do it. And for anyone complaining about having to tip $10, grow up. You’re getting and 1.5 hour facial for under $100. You should really be leaving them a $20+ tip. They didn’t make us feel pressure about money at all either.

Genuinely enjoyed my experience. Ann was lovely, handled my skin well (textured, Black, acne scars), and was so sweet to explain everything as she went through it. I did upgrade my facial to include a mask (there was a special so it was $80, but idk how helpful that was compared to the rest of what I get out of the basic facial). They will see me again.

Saw this place thru tiktok and wanted to try it with my mom especially the $49 first time facial. The place itself was very clean and the staff were nice however we were booked for 2pm in a couple room and in the end, we ended up in separate rooms which was fine and they started on my mom first because they said otherwise all the other clients would be pushed back which was again fine with us. They said we would still finish around the same time as I was worried one of us would wait too long for the other to finish. Our appointment was 2 pm and she wasn’t taken in u til 2:40pm and I was taken in at 2:50pm which was already annoying as I had to wait almost an hour. My mom had to wait 40 mins for me to finish. The facial itself was 10/10 very relaxing. The only thing to take note of is some of the staff would of course try and offer a lot of other extras even though I already said I just want to do the $49 trial offer. The staff who was doing my mom’s facial came over to me to specifically discuss an extra which would cost us $79/$120 and I kindly refused and said we’ll do it next time and she of course walked away looking unhappy. As per my mom, she was also very aggressive with the facial whereas the staff doing my facial was good and I have no complaints. Overall, I really wanted us to like it so we can go back but after that experience we won’t be coming back. I understand how busy they are but surely the timing of facials would be something they should know and work on as no one wants to wait an hour before getting seen especially if we booked in. I would have enjoyed it more but because of how late and unorganized the timings were, I was honestly already in a bad mood before the facial.

As a black girl who has textured skin and hyperpigmentation … they knew nothing about my skin. My service provider couldn’t do extraction properly so I left super inflamed. She kept commenting about my skin which made me feel horrible. And I was there for 2 hours. Also, I’m pretty sure she was working on someone else while she was doing facial. She kept leaving the room. What irritated me is the gloves she’d use in my face she kept touching the door. Going out the room and coming right back in with the same gloves. Everything she did for my skin was useless and then when it came time to checkout, I wasn’t going to rip bc I was told I should get a $120 facial even tho I only want the $69 one. So I wasn’t one of my budget. They got upset so I just left a $20 too and walked out of there 0/10 do not recommend. Only gave 2 stars because my esthetician was very nice

Today (5/3/2025), I got a facial at this spa, and honestly, I wasn’t satisfied with the experience. The actual cleaning part took maybe 6–7 minutes max. The rest of the time, the lady was just applying cream, wiping it off, and repeating the same thing over and over. At the end, she put on a moisturizing mask that stayed on for about 40 minutes (I even fell asleep), but it was only supposed to take 25 minutes. I don’t recommend this place. They advertise a $49 facial for first-time customers, but the staff will try to upsell you on other options that cost $80—and they’ll still do the same basic service, just for more money.

I went off an Instagram Post….. Big Mistake! I was completely let down. My massage was not good. I barely felt anything. It mostly left like the lady was giving me a rug burn on my back I left absolutely nothing. My facial was not at all what the instagram post was, even though I tried to show them and was willing to pay. I was completely let down. The massage was done mostly on my left side. I thought I was the only one until the lady that was not with me complained about her right side only being massaged and if they could even it out. The random lady got a “Sorry no more time” comment. She went on to explain that only one side was massaged as I left the same way, but she got shut down. Overall no recommendable! Plus the booking experience was overall not worth it!

If you’re in the area I definitely recommend coming here for your facial! I got the $79 deal that includes the aqua peel and it was sooo relaxing and hydrating. Everyone was so nice! They greet you with tea and water and they even gave me crackers while I waited for my friend to be done. While I waited for my friend to be done some walk-ins came in and they were able to squeeze them in, so they’re very accommodating 💖

I'm so glad we decided to come here. I brought my teenage son with me for a double facial. We were in good hands with Mabel. My son has really bad acne and after multiple dermatologist visits and expensive face creams, nothing seemed to work. After 2 treatments with Mabel, my son's face had drastically improved. I wish I had before and after pics but there's a big difference. I recommend Mabel because she knows what she's doing. My son has even gotten compliments on how his face looks now.
