This place is great for hair. My stylist was very attentive and spent a lot of time making sure I was absolutely satisfied with my haircut. She was friendly and able to understand exactly what I wanted.

Will definitely be going back.

Great place!  Don't let the outside or location fool you.  When you enter the salon, it's clean, modern, and the staff is outstandingly kind... save for the receptionist, who seems to be annoyed with herself for working there.

I had a fantastic young lady named Tiffany wax my brows, then wash, cut, and style my considerably long hair.  She was charming, listened to what I want, made suggestions, and when she was done, showed me the details of how she'd cut it to be sure it was satisfactory.  It certainly was!  And all for $35 for hair, and $15 for the brows.  C'moooooooon, you cannot beat that price for that kind of treatment.

I also had a spa pedicure scheduled, but if I may say so, skip having your nails done.  The chair they put me was short, old, and wobbly.  You put your feet in this lovely bowl with beautiful marbles, but there's nothing to keep the water warm.  The girl that took me was sooooo very nice, but was sweating profusely.  She didn't CLIP my toenails because she couldn't find the clippers (???) so she used a cuticle cutter to trim them down, then filed them endlessly.  EACH OF THEM.  My God.  The other foot was freezing in the now chilly water.

I also told her I wanted a french pedicure, and a flash of concern crossed her face but she was very positive after that.  Turns out, she could barely do it.  My white lines are misshapen, though not totally obviously.  She made a little boo boo on one big toe, and instead of starting again, she simply went over it again and again with white polish.  Ummm, now it's kinda chunky in that area.

Honestly, if I wasn't pregnant, and literally suffering from cold feet, I would've had her do it over again, but I just wanted out.  I skipped the "spa" part and just had her wrap it up.  The stool where you put your feet was soooo short in relation to the chair, that someone tall like me (5'10") had to rest my calf on it.  It HURT.  And you couldn't extend it anymore, because it was all one attachment.  It was ridiculous.  And the stupid stool was loose!  I kept sliding off of it.  No wonder the poor girl was sweating so badly!  What a mess.

Go get your hair did, your stuff waxed, and skip the nails.  You'll be glad you did on ALL counts!

Disclaimer: I have never received a hair service here-only spa treatments.

This place should NOT be called a "spa". I went in for a massage and pedi/mani with a girlfriend. My friend was hauled away for her massage and I did not see her until we were ALL done. SO much for a fun girls day. The massage room is a room right outside the hair salon so all you here is the sound of blowdryers, phones and chatter over the "relaxing music" they usually play while you are being rub downed. The massage itself was fluff. Don't go here for a deep tissue or sports massage. I've had better from boyfriends before sex. After my EXACT to the minute 60 minute massage I was whisked away to another room (where the hell is my friend, I wonder?). I am told this is where I will get my "spa" manicure and pedicure.  All I see is an office chair and one of those Conair foot baths waiting for me. I have given myself better pedicures and for FREE!  

Drive into Anchorage for spa services. If you are looking for a day of relaxing this is NOT the place.
