Highlights and curly cut
Yarimel D.

I went in today to see Ona for a curly cut and highlights. I enjoyed my time at the salon. Her assistants were very attentive and the salon vibe was great, the music and ambiance were perfect. Ona really took the time to understand what I wanted: she truly cares for hair and doesn't just do whatever just because. Everything is with a purpose. I've had a few curly cuts before but by far this has been the best experience. I can't wait to go back in a few months!

Went to Jassy. She's amazing. Beautiful color and blend- thorough knowledge about hair and color. Will be back soon!

I went to the salon for the first time yesterday and had a cut and highlights done by Katherine. She came highly recommended and boy did she not disappoint. She was incredibly professional and knowledgeable and listened to my vision and gave her feedback and I'm so glad I went to her. Totally love her work!

I have been going to 5 Salon & Spa for over three years and I have to say I love everything about their service. Ona is my stylist and her schedule is very busy. Yet, I have been able to get an appointment as needed. Even when she is unavailable, I am put on a waitlist and am called when an appointment becomes available. It is the epitome of customer service. Although I recently moved to NJ, I lived in the Bronx, and it was a no-brainer to make my way to 5 Salon & Spa. Ona understood exactly what I needed from my first appointment. My hair has grown and has continued to get healthier since the first time she cut my hair. I also have to mention the fact they are closed on Saturdays to allow their staff time for themselves and their families also is a testament to valuing staff just as much as clients. I rock my natural curls and she makes them flawless everytime. Thank you, Ona and staff, for sharing your gifts and making us feel beautiful.

My hair growth in the last year. I went to Ona last summer for my BIG CHOP, I mean short, short, short, like less than 1 inch in length. I continued going to Ona for my curl cuts and maintenance, and she has helped me during my hair journey. Today I came in with a ponytail with such heathy growth and left feeling my best with my new cut and shape! Thank you Ona for being such an artist and a saint!

Does this salon have beauticians who do hair relaxers for more coarse hair?

What does Eyebrow Mapping/Shaping entail? Is it just a wax and shaping (tweezers etc;)?

We spent about 5 hours here on this trip, but I definitely could have stayed longer. There is a parking lot a block or two down the street, as a treat parking is limited.

I was really excited to visit King Spa in Palisades Park while I was in the tri-state area. I had…read morebeen to the King Spa in Niles, IL several times and absolutely loved it, so I was expecting a similar relaxing experience. Unfortunately, I left feeling completely disappointed and more stressed than relaxed. I went on a Monday morning hoping to avoid crowds and have a peaceful day. Things started off on the wrong foot almost immediately. While I was simply checking the size of the uniform, holding it up to see if there was a difference in the width, an employee came over and snatched the second pair out of my hand as if I was trying to take something I shouldn't have. It was not a great way to start when I had barely gotten in the door. Next, the layout was also really confusing. The spa is spread across multiple floors with different sections and stairways, but no one explained where anything was or how to navigate the space. I spent a lot of time in the morning trying to figure out where I was and it felt like I was nosing around someone else's house: uncomfortable. The biggest issue, though, was communication. A woman in the locker room offered my niece and me a deal for two massages for $140 ($70 each) and asked me to send the money through Zelle. I sent $170, including what I thought was a generous tip of over 20%. She arranged the appointment, but I didn't confirm what type of massage I wanted. I foolishly assumed they would ask before starting. We had lunch beforehand - the food was delicious and the portion was huge. Unfortunately, they don't offer to-go boxes, so I needed to reschedule our massages in order to finish my meal. Before even finishing my meal, I went to the massage counter to see if we reschedule our appointments. A younger patron helped translate at the massage desk, but she needed my time slot and took it for herself. She told me the woman would help me reschedule and then left. When I tried to figure out my new time, the interaction felt rushed and dismissive. I was given time without being asked if it worked for me, and when I asked about other options, I was told there were none. I would have cancelled but had already paid, so I took the L. When it was finally time for the massage, we were taken back without anyone asking what type of massage we wanted. I realized my mistake because it was a much more intense massage style and is not my preference. At that point though, after so many rushed and uncomfortable interactions, I honestly didn't feel comfortable advocating for myself to tell them I wanted reflexology. The final issue happened while I was changing before leaving. The same woman who arranged the massage came over and told me I hadn't paid enough tip. I was confused because... it was a tip. She told me I owed another $20 and (to add insult to injury) that I couldn't get my license back from the front desk until I paid. That brought the tip to over 35% on a service I didn't choose and didn't enjoy. I came to King Spa looking for rest and relaxation, but instead left feeling like I had spent my hard-earned money somewhere that never quite felt comfortable and certainly not welcomed.

They sell pre-packaged Ramen bowls for $10. The facilities are simple and cozy -- a lounge area with lockers, couches, and a tv, a bathroom, a 'sleeping' room, as well as a wet area that includes an open shower area and a steam room. The co-ed section is even more cozy -- two saunas and a small lounge. On the day I visited, I found my fellow spa-goers to be friendly and open, and from what I gathered from chatting with folks, that seems to be the norm. I'll certainly be back at some point.

I booked the Paradise Premium package for my husband's birthday, which included a 40 min Korean body scrub, a 1 hr deep tissue massage, and a 1hr foot reflexology massage. My only complaint was that they purposely assigned three different staff members for the three different services, which felt a bit disruptive. On the bright side, I really enjoyed my female scrubber and masseuse by Linda and Nancy, though I didn't care for the male masseuse as much. For amenities, there are two main saunas in the co-ed area. I loved the clay mud ball room, it was a unique twist! They also have a Himalayan salt room, which was enjoyable, though it didn't get very hot. Just a heads up, inside the shower locker area, there is a hot tub and a steam room, which is a fully nude zone

So long story short, after planning to return in a few weeks, we will NEVER go back. When you check in you have to give your credit/debit card, or ID, or car keys in order to be given an electronic locker key to keep your belongings. You then select a spa "outfit" (pants and shirt) in your size. In the next area you remove your shoes and put them in a cubby. Then a super fast run through by a woman with a heavy Asian accent, so you barely understand. Then you find out that the showers , hot & cold pool ( because they don't have a jacuzzi/hot tub as advertised) is all NUDE! Lol

I just don't understand the hype…read more My husband and I had another massage place cancel on us unexpectedly, so we were on the hunt for another place that could accommodate us last minute. I was heartened by the happy reviews and surprised to see how affordable the massages were. That should have been my first warning sign. Upon arrival, the space seemed clean enough. The first floor is more of a waiting room (with a couch upon which the proprietor was laying down and phone scrolling when we arrived), and the upstairs space is dedicated to the actual massage rooms. There are a few rooms with multiple beds, and these, too, were laid down with towels and clean looking blankets. But the massage itself was terrible. My male masseuse's technique had zero finesse. The first part of my hour-long massage was through a thin sheet, and his general method was to rub the same spot over and over again until it felt raw and I was plaintively begging him to use less pressure. You'd think adding oil would make things better, but no. That's when he turned my various limbs into a clumsy slip-and-slide experience for his hands and forearms. I quickly regretted adding the extra 10 minutes for a foot massage, during which he somehow uncovered all the pain points of my feet with his knuckles. At one point, he even smacked my bottom. I'd like to see the massage training book that recommends that kind of practice. Over on the other table, my husband had a slightly better experience. But during a couple's massage, it never feels good when the two masseuses whisper to each other in another language and burst into barely disguised snickers throughout. The final nail in the coffin was when my husband's masseuse laughed outright after he yelped because she put freshly hot stones on his back. Since our experience was so different from all the other customers, it's possible we just pulled the short straws from the deck with our masseuses. But I believe we got what we paid for and suffice it to say it won't be a repeat experience.

I am taking the time to write this review because it's either so bad or so good. This place gets…read morethe latter accolade. I wish I can keep this gem all to myself but then I thought why not share the love and promote supporting local businesses such as this massage place. Don't be misled by the current storefront name "Moonlight Spa." It's legit and no-nonsense spa that really does the service impeccably and the place immaculate. Front-desk: Cindy or Jordan in the front does not push for services. I personally love the hospitality and no frills kind of welcome I get and the nice gesture of their offering of room temp Poland Spring water post-massage. It's no Pelligrino but hey in Asian culture you should not shock your system with cold water especially after a massage. Massage: I like the deep and hard tissue massage thrice in this place so far usually by older women and they are strong and know where to dig through your knots. Being in a cavewoman posture and hands tingling pins and needles from my "desk" job, I find relief with their technique -- it's like they know where to ease the pain and address my pressure points. All in all I feel like a pretzel from the massage and I sleep like a baby that night afterwards. Of course, you can request them to go deep or go light with the massage! I find them very attentive. Place: It's accessible by public transpo (there's Uber, too). I like to be on peds though, you'll pass by local shops regardless which direction you are coming from. The place itself is very clean, minimalistic (I find clutter anxiety-provoking.) I find zen here though the seats for foot massage could use a visual update. The massage rooms are simple and neat. I love and feel comfortable with the thoughtful positioning of pads and sanitary covers because Covid and Monkeypox are real! I also appreciate the fact that they offered me a mask when I forgot mine. I really think wearing a mask for venues like this should be an ongoing practice. Price: It all comes down to the $ at the end of the day and I find this place up to my standards and meeting my price point for an in and out kind of place -- you can spend a whole day here but certainly if you are on the go and want to get a message in during your lunch break, this is a good place for that. I think it's reasonable and they do give discount cards like loyalty points. Honestly, I'd love for them to have a loyalty program by referral! Other incentives: I love love how the hot stones come with the body massage. The sheets smells and look clean - trust me, I have high standards. The floors are mopped (you can tell) and the music is serene and calming. All in all, kudos to this establishment for what it offers and the service they give. I feel like a new person every time I leave this place and in better spirits than when I'm about to open the door. And yes, it is that good! This place is on top of my self-care list! When you go there, say Michelle's post on Yelp sent you here! :)
