I went here two weeks ago with 11 other women,. It was the day before my wedding and I didn't want a bachelorette party -- just a bunch of us to get our nails done together. I ended up here because a more well known salon was being extremely difficult. SO GLAD THAT HAPPENED!!! These ladies were amazing! When I called on the phone to make an appointment, they were super friendly and had no problem with us deciding which type of manicure and pedicure to get when we arrived and we didn't even have to pay in advance (like the other salon required). When we arrived at the salon, they were very welcoming and started on us right away. We got to look at their menu of services while they began and they have a great variety -- and all at a more reasonable price! The ladies did an amazing job on everyone's nails and even helped us on with our shoes at the end -- making sure we didn't ruin our new pedicures by putting oil and a protective plastic wrap over our toes. They even gave everyone a travel size lotion and I got something extra special for being the bride! It was a great experience and I would highly recommend this place to anyone and everyone! I will be getting my nails done here from now on!
Pros: extremely accommodating, friendly, professional

Helen has been cutting my hair for a couple years now. I always come back! I have long curly hair with mixed texture and she does miracles with it. She has a great sense of shape/form for a person's face. I can go for months between cuts, the shape is so well balanced. I usually don't color, but wanted to for my sister's wedding. We talked about it and she got exactly the color I was thinking of on the first try! Plus it looked completely natural with my skin tone. THANKS HELEN!
Pros: Helen for cut and color
Cons: no American Express card

Last weekend I took my wife here for our anniversary...... she loved it!!! We had a couples massage so we were in the same room and our therapists were really friendly and talented. We also loved hanging out in the jacuzzi room where they had saunas and a steam room too. I would definitely go back, everyone was extremely friendly, professional and welcoming.
Pros: wet lounge, bar, awesome massage

Magnolia Spa is the best, plain and simple. The service and treatments (waxing, mani-pedis, facials) are excellent. But I think the most amazing thing is that, after going there for four years, I've never had a bad experience. Sometimes in NYC, you've feel like you've found "your" place, and then all of a sudden it loses it's magic.
Not Magnolia! The waxing is so good that a dear friend of mine -- who happens to be an esthetician -- and I were both talking about how much we loved going to this great little place for Brazilians... and realized we both went to Magnolia! I've sent several friends, and they've loved it, too. The ladies give awesome tips on how to maintain great skin in-between waxes.
And the mani-pedis! I started treating myself to getting them regularly (which is totally affordable, since the pedicures last forever), and ever since I've had people commenting on my nails, asking me where I get them done. Monica does the most beautiful French manicure. Even my boyfriend comments on how great they look, and how they keep looking great all week!
My mom lives in Westchester, but now prefers to get treatments at Magnolia (and she's gone everywhere), after I set her up with a facial, and she said it was the best she'd ever had. I feel the same way. The products are lovely, but its the hands-on work that makes the difference. Gentle, thorough extractions, and a face massage leave you glowing.
If I sound totally over-the-top, oh well! It's how I feel. Every member of the staff is gracious and accommodating, with both their clients and each other. I often find spas awkward and impersonal. Magnolia, small and tucked away, doesn't have the space for huge showers, etc. Instead, it feels like the female equivalent of a barbershop in the 1950's: incredibly dependable and consistent, but also warm and friendly, where the staff takes the time to get to know you, and care about you, individually.
Magnolia Spa has a wonderful, experienced staff, and a great range of treatments, and they always make the effort to make you feel comfortable. Which, (let's face it) when someone's waxing your lady bits, is extremely rare indeed. If you want to treat yourself, go to Magnolia.
Pros: Brazilian, Mani-Pedi, Facial, Awesome Staff

Hello All!
I just had my first facial at Pretty Inside and I have to say it was the best facial, I ever had!! The Pretty Inside staffers were extremely friendly, yet knowledgeble. The spa itself is absolutely gorgeous, yet cozy at the same time. My face feels and looks so smooth and clean. From now on, I have a standing monthly appointment for a Pretty Deluxe Facial and now that I read the great review for the Brazilian Wax, I will add it for next month! And the bonus is, it is right here in Brooklyn. No more schleping into the city to get great spa services

Sooo accommodating. After much encouragement from my friend, I had finally made an appointment for a well-overdue massage at Sage. I was looking forward to it very much. Unfortunately, life threw it's usual curveball straight at me and I found myself in a position that left me unable to keep my appointment. It was 2 days before my scheduled date and I could already smell the incense and oils in my mind. I called and spoke with the owner, explaining my dilema and disappointment. She was very sympathetic and understanding and within a short time I had a new appointment and restored peace of mind. Thank you Susan for bearing with the crazy life of a stressed-out girl. P.S.( In case you're interested- and i know you are- the massage was fantastic! I'll be back.)
Pros: Even though life is sometimes a little irratic...SAGE Spa is more than happy and willing to go with the flow
Cons: none

I've been coming to Bruno Salon & Spa for the past 3 yrs and i have to admit i dont want to go anywhere else!! Bruno has been coloring my hair & i have gotten more compliments on my hair in the past few years then ever before. Bruno has a natural talent for knowing what colors will work with your complexion and your overall look. Bruno has always been very professional, accomodating and is always making sure that you are happy with your look & color.I would recommend him to anyone...he is a natural in this field.
Also, i would like to add the hair stylists and well as the other professionals are very good as well.
Only con i would say is that a few times that i have gotten a mani/pedi i havent been very happy with the service. I've felt rushed in the mani/pedi and i dont think the quality is as good.
But overall, for hair cut color and style, bruno salon & spa is the place to be!!!
Pros: Always a great color, good hair cuts & style
Cons: Mani /Pedi not good

I have gone to O Spa several times for facials and waxing before and I just recently decided to get the AgeLOC treatment done after the esthetician showed me the clinical studies. The results were amazing and much more than I expected. The wrinkles on my face that used to stand out before are now barely even noticeable and making my face look much younger and smoother. Another reason I found this treatment to be so great is because it lasts much longer than collagen treatments. After the AgeLOC treatment, my face looks and feels great, I would recommend this to anyone who wants their face and skin to look a few years younger. I like the treatment so much that I bought 10.
Pros: friendly, professional staff, very clean
