I usually get a deep tissue massage and didn't know what a Thai massage so had to look it up. The internet indicated you remain fully dressed so I inquired about what clothing to wear, and was told that you actually get undressed. I was greeted upon arrival. After signing the forms they provided a pair of slippers to change into, and led me to a room. I requested the Thai combo massage, which incorporates Thai and deep tissue massage. The masseuse asked what pressure I wanted, and I requested hard pressure. I also mentioned my shoulders were extra tense. At times it felt like the masseuse was building up the pressure because in the beginning I didn't feel the pressure much and then I would feel more pressure. Some of the stretching positions felt a little odd, definitely need some getting used to. At the one hour mark, I extended the session to 90 minutes and mentioned to do more work on my back since my shoulders were still tense. Overall it was a good experience. I did feel some relief but I had hoped she focused more on my shoulders since I did mention that it was tense. I think for my tense shoulders I may need to stick with deep tissue massage since I feel that does tend to loosen up the muscles more. Parking is in the back, the entrance is there as well.

I walked in feeling tight and stressed, and walked out feeling completely refreshed and loose. Kate was also very professional and made sure I was comfortable the entire time. You can tell she genuinely cares about her clients and takes pride in her work. If you're looking for a place that delivers both relaxation and real results, this is it. I'll definitely be coming back and asking for Kate again. Highly recommend!

I was beat, tired muscles and had knots in my lower back and thought I'll check into my hotel then check out Yelp for a local massage. Sunflower Spa had good reviews so I gave a call and booked an hour. Sunny greeted me into her lovely reception area -- decorated with art work and sunflower and tiger collectables everywhere -- this you have to see! There is a hot shower and two rooms. One smaller room with the ceiling poles for back walking and the main massage room which was warm and handsomely decorated with paintings and spiritual artwork. It felt cozy and private. Soft Asian instrumental music was playing. I asked for "strong" and pointed to two areas in my lower back when she started. Occasionally, Sunny would ask if the pressure was okay and if I was okay -- it was perfect! Sunny has a friendly, calming, happy spirit with excellent therapeutic skills. She found a knot near my left shoulder blade and gave it attention. No pain, no gain. It's all worth it in the end! I enjoyed the hot towel afterwards too. She gently brushed it on my back, her way of telling me that she's about to put a hot towel, and then placed it on. I loved how she used the hot heat from the towel to massage my neck and shoulders! Then, she continued to wipe/massage the oil/lotion off. After the massage was over, I got dressed and came back to the decorative reception area. There she gave me a cool water drink to rehydrate. She offered green tea too. I felt so relaxed, my knots were gone and glad I had found a good, honest massage experience in Ventura. The deep tissue work was exactly what I needed. Sunny's generous and professional work on my back and neck deserved my generous tip. I left feeling super relaxed and at ease -- and slept the night through. Next day, I continued to feel the benefit of her work. Can't wait to go back and intend to make this a regular monthly visit. Chances are, when in Ventura, you'll fall in love with Sunny at Sunflower Spa and see it for the true gem it is! Jon Newman

The first thing that I noticed when entering the building is that the entire place needs a deep cleaning from the bathroom that had a poor excuse for watered down soap. What are they washing their hands with? Right before she started the massage, I had a weird feeling and again asked the rate. She said $60 an hour and I told her that they told me $50 on the phone, she denied it and I said whatever, OK. The room was not clean the table was dingy and needs to be replaced. I wanted to leave in the first 45 minutes but decided to stay since my girlfriend was already in the other room getting her massage. Even though I asked for a hard massage when the woman asked, she could only give me light pressure, I kept asking for more pressure and she said Ok, but there was no change. She kept leaving the room to greet new customers, turning doorknobs and answering calls, without washing her hands. With all the ins and outs and calls, in the end, she ended up giving me about a 35 minute massage and stopped at the 50 minute mark and tried to charge me for an hour. The other woman who massaged my girlfriend went to ring us up and tried to auto add tips, I told her that I wasn't paying for a full hour when my massage was under 45 minutes. After 5 minutes of uncomfortable back and forth I ended up paying $50 and tipping $10 and leaving feeling more stressed than when I came. Avoid this place at all costs.

This massage store is in a small stand alone building with very limited parking, but there was parking both times I did go. When I walked in I was greeted by a smiling, happy Chinese lady. The facility seemed clean and tidy. The cheerful lady gave me a good massage, helping to work out some knots in my back and shoulders. I was happy with the massage to a point. I ALWAYS check the time when they start and expect that the hour is 60 minutes. At about 45 to 48 minutes two customers arrived, and the other lady working here started a loud conversation in Mandarin. Well, I could already see the way this was going. At 53 minutes the therapist told me OK after the annoying slapping that so many of these massage ladies do. Now here is where I guess I was a dick, but I called her on the seven minutes and started talking about my hour should be 60 minutes. Bla Bla Bla, she tells me about the other customer. I don't give a shit because I was there first and paid for the hour. She wanted to argue and I did not leave. If she is going to beat me out of seven minutes then I will occupy the room . At some point the other customer leaves, she is not smiling or happy now. She did return me $10, I took that and a five and tipped her. Second time I went here she seemed irritated, (I wonder why?). She did charge me $50 for this massage as well. And she showed me the time on her phone before the massage started and after. It was an hour. I am not sure if she is irritated or if she is like that. But I do know she gives a good massage and it is just down the street from my hotel. No funny business here just legitimate therapeutic massage.

I LOVE this salon! When I walk in everybody knows my name and is so welcoming and warm. The style is so different from your everyday- run of the mill salon. ArchiTexture has beautiful open ceilings, awesome stained concrete floors and fun stations with huge tool boxes. So cute and so functional! I go in pretty often to get my hair done. Kia does my hair, everything from my straightening treatment to my low lights to my shampoo blow drys almost every other week. It's all so great, but hands down I can't live without my straightening treatment. It totally takes so much of my frizz away and makes my hair so much more manageable. I am so thankful to Kia for mentioning it and getting me in the books very soon after talking about it. She is so fun and joyful. She always shares her smile with me. ArchiTexture is really the place to be. Any of the wonderful ladies there are great but I go see Kia. She is such a color specialist. I haven't ever seen anything but greatness from her hands!! read more

Erika has been my go-to hair stylist and colorist for a long time and is the best around, but when she did my hair and make-up for my wedding in April she went above and beyond! I was so impressed with how she took my ideas and brought them to life. On top of that she got everything done in a timely and calm manor, which was exactly what I needed during such a busy morning. Hiring Erika was one of the best decisions I made for my wedding and every time someone looks at my wedding photos they comment on my hair and make-up! You definitely have to meet with Erika before your next wedding! She also brought Kia with her to do my bridesmaids hair. Kia was so much fun to have around and did an amazing and efficient job getting everyone's hair done on time. For your every day hair needs, or for one of the most important days of your life, you do not need to look any farther than Erika and ArchiTexture Salon! read more

Architexture hits the mark and then some. Why can't every salon be like this? I love that the stylists are passionate about what they do. I see Jess and she is literally excited every time I sit in her chair. It's hard to find someone who is great with curly hair, let alone short curly hair, and she can't wait to get her hands on it. She has the best intuition and makes me look like a star every time I see her. They do such a great job making it comfortable and inviting. I love sitting on their amazing patio sipping coffee while I'm waiting for my color to do its thing. It feels more like being at a friends place than a normal salon. If you want a genuinely great experience, I would recommend stopping in. read more

There's no review high enough for the salon, and specifically its owner, Erika Harding. Erika has worked very hard to be where she is and she takes her customers' needs seriously. Whether it's someone that walks in with their hair burned, or simply an usual cut. she puts her time and thorough dedication into it. I've been her client for over 25 years and have followed her from TO to Studio City and Ventura. She does my highlights so natural that people can't tell, she does an amazing job at Brazilian Keratin Treatments and her makeup ideas are simply superb. I will never change hair stylists. read more

This was my first time here. I came in for a haircut. And although Megan gave me a nice cut, it wasn't quite what I wanted. Which I didn't realize until I got home, because I opted not to have her blow dry it. I left a message to that effect, and Erika called me back the next morning, asking how she could make it right. She met me at the salon the following morning, and re-did the cut, even though she was leaving that day, to do hair and makeup at a wedding in Paso Robles! I really appreciated her professionalism and the time she spent with me. Now I love the cut! Thanks Erika! read more

I didn't say anything in the salon, but when I got home, my friends pointed out how bad it looked, which made me realize I wasn't overreacting. Overall, I do like this salon, especially for walk-ins. If I had to rank the stylists I've been to: Madeline is definitely #1--she did an amazing job with both the cut and styling, and there were no random extra charges. Abel also did a great job with my highlights. Katie and Heather would be tied. They're both very nice, but Katie cut my hair noticeably uneven--I even had coworkers telling me not to go back to her, which is why I stopped coming to the salon for a while. Heather did a good job with the haircut itself, but the styling was not good. I wouldn't have minded as much since I planned to redo my hair at home anyway, but being charged extra for styling that didn't turn out well is frustrating. I was actually going to ask to skip the blow-dry, but she said she needed to dry it to see how it laid and refine the cut. If it had turned out good, I wouldn't have minded the upcharge--but paying extra for something that looked this bad is really disappointing. And the extra charge wasn't explained it almost seemed like she was trying to sneak it in as she whispered to the receptionist to help her add the charge.

I truly did not want to write this review about my experience at The Color Bar on June 27, 2026…read more However, after a new stylist declined to schedule a second appointment following my disclosure of what happened, I felt it was only fair to share an honest account so prospective clients could make an informed decision. I will not publicly disclose the name of either stylist, but I am willing to provide that information if contacted directly. I was at The Color Bar for approximately six hours. The foils on the right side of my head seemed to be processing normally. However, after the stylist remixed the color and began applying it to the left side, the foils became extremely hot. The heat was burning my neck and scalp, and my hair itself was burning. I was terrified that my hair was going to burn off, so I began pulling out the foils myself. They were so hot that they burned my fingers as I removed them. Even the salon owner felt the excessive heat. I did not learn until after the incident that she was the owner, but she did not show any concern. The stylist at The Color Bar accused me of putting something in my hair that caused the burning. However, the only product I had used was a natural black-hair shampoo approximately two weeks earlier. I have never experienced anything like this--not even after using boxed hair dye. In an attempt to correct the color, the stylist applied a toner that left my hair looking essentially black. My hair is neither thin nor straight, so perhaps its texture was more challenging for her to work with. However, I trusted that she had the experience necessary to color my hair safely. My hair was severely damaged, my shirt was left with major bleach stains, and although I did request a discount due to the less than professional service, I was still charged and PAID HER $300. I have included pictures showing the bleach damage to my shirt from that appointment. Despite everything that happened, **I never became angry or raised my voice.** I showed the stylist considerable grace because her child had also been at the salon for several hours, and she shared that her husband had been deployed that day. In August, I visited a stylist at another salon, which I will not name in this review but it's at Hollywood Beach. During that appointment, I privately explained what had happened at The Color Bar and why my damaged hair required extra conditioning and care. When I later tried to schedule a second appointment, she declined to book me and said she had spoken to the other stylist - I didn't even provide her with a name, just an initial! (I could barely remember her name). **I cannot know exactly what was said between the two stylists, but I was shocked to be blamed for what happened**!! The fact that one side processed normally while the newly mixed color on the other side became dangerously hot speaks for itself. Clients should be able to trust that their hair will be treated safely. If something goes wrong, they also deserve honesty, accountability, and compassion. I hope this review encourages others to book with caution, research their stylist thoroughly, and ask questions before committing to a service. Regards, Ventura Resident
