Oh my god, go to Zindagi Salon and get the best hair of your life. I have been seeing Sarah Mya for 2 1/2 years, I followed her from Festoon Salon and will follow here where ever she goes. Her new salon is very upscale and airy. I have pretty unruly hair and Sarah Mya has been the only one to give me a fabulous, yet low maintence style that even I can style at home to look good. Do yourself a favor and see her.
Pros: The hair! The color! The beautiful salon!

I am an esth. student here as of 12/05. It's a family owned/oper. business, and it does show. There's little order to the admin. but I've learned, beauty schools in gen'l (aside from comm. colleges), lack routine and order. The staff has had heavy turnover & abt a year ago the esth. students had no night teacher for many months! Students were self-taught and unsupervised! I started when they obtained some perm. staff & have no big complaints re the new teachers. Daytime instructor is more questionable. You pay higher tuition for flexibility to finish your education. To warn other students, you should research potential schools well, ask the right questions, audit a class, & ask current students for their opinion. Zenzi's does use prof. skincare products, but are always out of product and re-ordering takes forever. All this for approx $7k+ in tuition over a span of 7 mos
Pros: Flexibile schedule, uses prof. products
Cons: lacks order, poorly run

I was looking for a beauty school, so of course I went for some informational interview. Zenzi's seems like a good deal for the money. It's not the best school, but it's deffinately not the worst (see Hilltop in Daly City.)
Zenzi started the school 20 years ago. She's a sweet lady who really wants students to succeed. They'll be moving into a new space soon and it promises to be nicer than their temporary space on Market.
I wouldn't let any of the students touch my hair. Theirs is bad enough.

A great friend and I were in the San Francisco area this past weekend and i wanted to surprise her with a massage. I know you always get what you pay for but $140-$180 per person, which is what i was finding in the main part of the city, was a little pricey for me. I did research and found Zensasian so i called to see what they offered. The great experience started with the friendly voice that answered the phone. She informed me of the deals they were having and told me with the couples massage that they would be able to serve us champagne afterwards. I was sold and WOW!!! did the reasearch pay off. The establishment itself is quaint and cozy with only a few massage rooms but the decor is great and the atmosphere is very soothing. I have received many massages but this one was by far one of the top 3 i have ever had. Corrine has the hands of an angel and she worked in every second of what we paid for. From head to toe, she worked on problem areas i specified as well as relieved a headache that i had come in with. My friend LOVED her experience as well with John and said she would definitely go back. Afterwards they brought us champagne and let us relax until we were ready to leave. Both extremely friendly, very social and overall provided an exceptional experience. If you don't mind driving a bit away from the city and don't need it to be a posh and stuffy spa then i would highly reccomend Zensasian to anyone who wants an amazing massage with an even better guest experience.
Pros: Amazing Massage, Friendly Staff, Caters to your needs
Cons: Parking is a little hard to find but nothing that a quick drive around the block won't fix

I've been going to this spa for two years and I love it! I don't understand why the review before mines was negative because this place is great. I've tried many nail spas before and this one is the best. If you do go make an appointment and request for Tracy. She's the owner of the spa and is very talented. If you want a french manicure she is the person to go to. This place also had a spa lounge a block away and it is a fabulous place to get facials and massages. Linda is the person that does the facials and she is amzing! I go there every week so I know what I'm talking about. Go to this nail spa!!!

I have to always be on guard at this place. I have been duped before into getting service "upgrade$" - one time I was asked if I wanted nice-smelling lotion instead of the regular nice-smelling lotion. I said "no" at first but was heavily pressured into taking the 'nicer smelling' stuff. Didn't care either way, until I paid my bill and it was $20 more than what I was expecting.
It's not sound business to trick your customers into upgrading their service. The time to do that is when a person is checking in for their appointment - it is then the cashier has a chance to explain additional services that are available.
I used to go to this place a while back but stopped going because of these tactics. I went

I really enjoyed the convienence of going to a great boutique and then getting a mani and pedi all in the same place. The Z Lounge is cozy and very enjoyable. The manicures are great and the atmosphere is so fun and friendly. If you need a minicure or pedicure you should go here because its way more than a nail salon, its a fashion forward good time!!

I have been going to YoYo since the day they opened. A salon that's both trendy & classy at the same time, and caters to people of all ages. Simon, who's my hair stylist, as well as the owner of the Salon, does a wonderful job. He not only has the skill behind the scissors, but also within a conversation - someone who truly listens to what the client wants. I've introduced him to many friends, and I can honestly say they wouldn't say anything otherwise.
I'd say if you haven't visited YoYo yet, stop by sometimes! If not for the service, at least for the friendly smiles!
