It's so hard to find an actual spa around here that's available and actually worth the experience…read more I found this place and figured to give it a try. I called on a Saturday and usually most places are extremely busy and booked for weeks out. The receptionist was able to schedule me today since there was an cancellation. I come in and the place is beautiful, clean and quiet. You can tell they take pride in their presentation and they had customers coming in and out which let me know people were pleased. Jessica was the one who did my facial, I decided to get the dermabrasion to help with some scarring and discoloration I was having. Jessica was extremely profesional and knowledgable about what was best for my skin. She took her time and actually made this session so relaxing that I actually went to sleep, LOL! It was so peaceful and the rooms are set up to make you feel rested and comfortable. The sessions are about an hour and you can instantly see the improvements. Like most places they try to sell you products but here that did not happen. Their honesty and professionalism will make me a recurring costumer. I hope if you are in the area to give them a chance at least once. Thank you again for awesome service, ladies!

I've been going here for years on and off but sadly I will NOT be coming back. I planned to make an…read moreappointment for a few things, called when they weren't open and then when they were open I got a call from a MALE receptionist. NO name stated of his, no normal phone etiquette before asking about appointments--he just immediately asked if I would be scheduling a BRAZILIAN. Practically threw up in my mouth, I was just immediately so uncomfortable and grossed out. Will be finding somewhere else to go to, expeditiously!! EDIT: Thank you for the additional information that wasn't known to me when I made the original comment. I've never had a bad experience at the business in the past, and I reacted in the immediate shock of the encounter. Over the years, TWB had become a space where I felt safe, particularly because my experiences there had always been with women. I've had traumatic experiences in the past that have led me to intentionally seek out women-only spaces whenever possible, which is why this interaction affected me so strongly. With the additional context, I recognize that my original characterization was stronger than warranted and understand now that the questions were part of the business's standard process. In hindsight, I think there was a misunderstanding on both sides of the encounter. I appreciate the clarification and have reconsidered my initial assessment, which is reflected in my updated review.

Don't be discouraged by the girly shops and overall non manly atmosphere of the shopping center. Once you get inside her office, it is all business and over in no time.

One thing to look out for: Fierce Beauty is actually operated inside of The Rage Salon and spa, so you'll want to look for this sign when trying to find Mimi. Happy waxing!

I am so, so glad I found Julie- I won't be going anywhere else for my Brazilians (or other waxing needs for that matter!). In fact, I set up my next appointment with her before I left the building. HIGHLY recommend this talented, wonderful woman! The sweet lady at the front desk was an angel too. I am so impressed with these ladies and my experience from start to finish. Thank you!!

By the way the location is in a shady part of town.

The Salon Retreat is run by Kasey Opdycke. She used to operate out of Luminous Lox but just opened…read moreup her new salon under Yoga Studio Satya. I've been going to her for waxing since I moved out here and L-O-V-E her. You can still check out her Yelp reviews from her customers from when she was at Luminous Lox -- three 5-star reviews and one 4-star review that specifically name her. | LOCATION | The Salon Retreat and Yoga Studio Satya operate out of the same building. They're conveniently located near the intersection of Academy and Woodmen. Yoga on top and the salon on the bottom. You can access the salon either through the front door and walk down the stairs, or you can park around back and use the door located in the center of the building (as opposed to the back door on the southwest corner of the building). She's friends with the yoga studio owners, and they decided to partner together to offer us clients a one-stop-zen-shop, so to speak. | SERVICE | WAXING -- I can't say enough awesome things about Kasey. She's so easy to talk to and has a great spirit. I've only been to her for Brazilians, but I wouldn't go anywhere else. She makes me feel really comfortable during a process that -- let's be real -- involves bearing it all and being in awkward positions. But somehow Kasey just makes it all seem like a walk in the park. From my prior review: "She is really friendly and makes you feel really comfortable during the process. Talking with her made the process much more bearable. She's takes a lot of pride in her work and is really thorough -- definitely the most thorough person I've ever been to in the 10 years I've been getting waxed. And you can tell she really cares about her clients. She had already done seven Brazilians before me and had two pots of wax going to make sure she was ready for her next appointment. She's also really knowledgeable about her trade and takes the time to educate you about pre- and post-care, which I always appreciate." FACIALS -- Last time I was in, I got a facial, too. What a treat! She has multiple different products, depending on your needs -- including stuff for sensitive skin. Everything she uses is all natural. And it smells so lovely! She opens up your pores and massages you face. And -- depending on what you need -- will make sure all your pores and squeaky clean without damaging your skin. For part of it, she does force you to be quiet, stop talking and relax, which as someone who is always go-go-go I appreciate that. In addition to waxing, she offers many other services from hair to microdermabrasion. I have read nothing but positive reviews about her work. There are a few 5-star reviews on the Luminous Lox site naming her for hair and extensions. She actually used to be an instructor for extensions, too. | PRICING | She is definitely competitively priced and always delivers great work. From my prior review (in regard to waxing): "Her normal pricing is the same as the European waxing place only they take 10 minutes to do a full Brazilian. Kasey will make sure you still have all your skin left and take the time to make sure the process is as painless as possible. I went to her on a GREAT priced Groupon and am so glad I took the chance." Since then, I keep coming back routinely for regular priced waxes. | ATMOSPHERE | I LOVE what she's doing with The Salon Retreat. She's putting so much love and care into making the space inviting and relaxing. She really puts a lot of thought into her decor and lighting -- everything from where she places her lights and what kind of light they give off to splurging on the most amazing aqua fuzzy blanket. When you walk into the waiting area, there's a seating area and a drink station set up for customers. She's also the only person in the space and can close the door to her room, which not only provides additional privacy, but I appreciate how relaxed it is compared to the usual salon vibe. There aren't a million other conversations going on or strangers poking their head in to see your foiled head in the middle of a color. | SCHEDULING | I tend to have a pretty nutty schedule, so I really appreciate that she's on Vagaro so I can book and change my appointment 24/7 and get reminders about my upcoming appointments: https://www.vagaro.com/TheSalonRetreat#.VGOhBvldU7g. | OVERALL | I have always loved coming to Kasey, and I'm so excited about the business concept they have here. I think it's fantastic to be able to have both of them in the same location. You can go do yoga and then walk downstairs to Kasey to get pampered. In addition to the fact that she's a great person and talented professional who is reasonably priced, she now has this location that allows for better privacy and relaxation. Obviously, I'll keep coming back and might even have to check out a yoga class. FB: https://www.facebook.com/TheSalonRetreat.

I found this place when I was looking to purchase a groupon for a Brazilian. I was a little nervous since I couldn't find any reviews online. I was able to book my appointment that night on the website and went in the next day for my appointment! The location was pretty easy to find. I went to see Diana cracraft for my wax. She was in the lower level. The ambiance of the location was very warm and welcoming. My husband was able to sit in the lobby and get some coffee while he waited for me. He really liked that. The waxing room was in the next area which also had another seating area. The room was clean and quiet. The table was more like a bed and was very comfy. Definitely more luxurious than other places I had been. Diana was very thorough and made me comfortable. The wax itself took about 45 minutes, but that was probably because we got to talking lol. She truly takes pride in her work and wants to be happy with your results. She told me if I got home and noticed that she had missed something to just give her a call. But she didn't! Most of the time after I get waxed I have to "clean up" some stragglers the next day. It's been 2 days no strays! Probably the best wax anyone has done for me. I would be lying if I said it was painless, (duh... it's a Brazilian!) but she did a very good job and pain was minimal. I will definitely be returning in a few weeks!
