Brooks is amazing, I had walked past this place and didn't think much of it from the outside but as I went inside to see what this place was all about the front desk receptionist was very friendly and gave me great information along with a tour. As I have been there now a few times each and every time the visit was very enjoyable, if I ever need anything the staff is very helpful and the massages I've had there are always AWSOME! Another thing that impressed me was the steam room, private resting rooms, and sauna with eucalyptus which was great. Also the fact that you don't have to stress out about parking, they take care of it for you whether it's at a meter or with the valet guys. All in all the place is clean, simple and the therapists are the best!
Pros: affordable, consistent, unique, clean, CHOCOLATES : )
Cons: chocolates

I've been a regular of Dtox Day Spa since they opened a couple of years ago in Atwater Village. Before I go on, I should point out that it's VERY addictive to have such a top-notch facility so close to home.
From the moment you enter into this serene environment (not like the mass production day spas ala Burke Williams, et al) you are greeted by a friendly and personable receptionist immediately who knows your name and kindly sends you on your way, locker key in hand.
The facility is quiet, clean, and cooled/warmed (depending on the season) at just the right temperature. I enjoy both the private men's quiet area and the common quiet area where I can either relax while listening to the soothing waterwall or read a magazine enjoying my fresh cucumber and lemon water nibbling on the fresh fruits and nuts.
Oh yeah, the services. I generally book my massages with Mo, however in some cases I go with Julian. Either way, it's a homerun! I just had the pleasure of an 80 minute custom massage with Mo and it was fabulous!!! He hit all the areas that needed work AND incorporated a facial massage which included the customary scalp massage with a very sensitive and spot on EYE MASSAGE. I've never had this before and it is out of this world.
And speaking of facials, I also indulged in A Micro O2 or something like that. Basically, it's a micro-dermabrasion oxgen facial and boy does it plump the face and keep me looking fresh!!!
Thank you to Lila as she's the esthetician of skin gods! Not only is her spa technique as professional as can be, but her personalized service and charm is so relaxing while she works her magic.
Dtox is staffed with the best of the best and they are all SO kind, friendly, and appreciative of my business.
I encourage everyone to give it a try. HOWEVER, I warn you. You will become a Dtox Day Spa addict no matter what service you indulge yourself in!

I had the best time here. My girlfriends threw the first part of my bachelorette party here a few weeks ago. What an amazing place. They couldn't have picked a better venue. The spa is very modern and contemporary with a European feel. It's not crowded and not commercial like other spas can be. We started off with a spa lunch and martinis in their cafe. The staff/waitress was very pleasant. The owner made himself known to us and he was so kind. A very friendly man who welcomed us. My manicure was amazing as well as my 50 minute relaxation massage. I've had both treatments at many places, but this was just perfect. My french mani was very carefully done, and the massage pressure was perfect. We all got a tour of the spa and it is unlike any spa in LA. The steam rooms and saunas each have a different name and have a different temperature ranging from the mid 200 degrees to the mid 100 degrees. I love that the pools (hot tub, pool and ice bath) are all co-ed so it's a perfect place for couples to enjoy. I had a wonderful experience from entering through the doors to the moment we left. Thank you for an amazing experience. I will definitely be back!"
Pros: Best all around spa in LA
Cons: none!

Does anyone know what the story is with Pure Aesthetics?
I tried calling all day today to make an appointment, but I just got a recording saying that the number was not in service or had been disconnected!
I love love LOVE Pure Aesthetics. Not only in the customer service fantastic, but you see amazing results from your facial immediately! Not to mention, I'm a huge fan of all their products as well.
Great atmosphere, great services, great everything!
The only problem is... I can't reach them.
Pros: Everything. Customer service, products, results...
Cons: I can't reach them!

I've been a client of Marina for over four years, for both waxing and facials. Although there are plenty of day spas near me, I willingly drive more than an hour to receive treatments from her. She is meticulous and thorough. She is also very adept at customizing facials for whatever your skin needs at the time. But beyond that she is also friendly and genuinely interested in how her clients are doing. Whenever I leave Faces I have to resist the urge to keep touching my face because it's so smooth and silky. There also aren't any post-waxing strays anywhere.
Pros: Friendly, skilled staff; very clean spa.
Cons: none

I have gotten acupuncture several times over the years with various professionals and she stands at the tippy top with her skillful hands, knowledge and sweetness. Healing Hands on larchmount is also a peaceful environment to receive your healings.....If you can splurge I def recommend doing her in home special, she comes to you, acupuncture and massage....it will make you purrrr all day long. LOVE Tamara!
Pros: best acupuncturist in town
Cons: wish I had more time to be there!

Helen Is the best hairstylist in L.A.. In response to NTheKnow. Usually when people are concerned about the price they ask. If you don't ask it's your loss and you should pay whatever the service is. May It be a lesson learned.

Nona is a nurturing and thorough professional. After years of spending thousands of dollars at Med Spas for facials in Santa Monica and Beverly Hills I was referred to Nona by a friend and I haven't looked back. She is swift but detailed in her treatments, no pore goes unnoticed. She has given me the best tips and advice for products to use at home.
Her treatment room is a clean and calm environment that I always look forward to spending time in. I really appreciate details like the calming music and convenient parking too.
Pros: personalized skin care
Cons: none

When moving from one city to another, one of the most difficult "to-do's" is finding that new person to do your do. So I feel so lucky to have found Yanee and Vous so soon after coming back to LA.
As it turns out, Vous is the rarest of finds. In a crowded field of West Hollywood/Hollywood area salons, they're doing quality work, at competitive prices, with the MOST flexible hours anywhere, staffed by sincerely warm and caring stylists; this combo really sets this modest spot apart from the pack. From the basic cut (for me) to the latest colors and trends, Vous is pretty much one-stop shopping.
And the outrageously convenient 7-day scheduling (including walk-ins)? Have no fear. Over the years I'd been burned at some places with same-day appointments--the less-than-stellar newbie of course was the only one with an opening. Not so at Vous! Yanee only works with good people who, like her, care about what they do. Open slots are just a perk of being open 7 days a week (nearly all day long); it allows you to get in whenever you need to.
Times are tough, but you still gotta look good. Vous will help you look your best while treating you like family--from the very first visit. Go.
Pros: Quality Work, Open nights and weekends
Cons: Parking can be difficult if you don't know where to look
