Making the appointment was very easy, I visited Belle Ame website and did my booking there. The location of Belle Ame is in a small plaza with plenty of parking, it was very easy for me to navigate here. The inside of the studio is so beautifully designed, I love, love, love the decor; it was welcoming, felt very feminine, and felt like home. The music was not too loud and I really enjoyed the playlist. What was more relaxing was the lash recliner chairs, oh I felt like I was laying on clouds! I definitely fell asleep. The appointment I made was for a mini-fill to get me by until my tech came back. This was my first time seeing another lash tech in several years and Sabrina was very professional and definitely worked her magic on me. I was unable to tell her what type of curls I had or even the length! I've always just allowed my lash tech to do her thing; so I said I trust you. The refills on my hybrids that Sabrina did came out beautifully. I was very impressed with her work. I will definitely come back and see Sabrina again if my lash tech was on vacation again.

While I was driving to your salon, just 10 minutes away from my 4 PM appointment, I received a call informing me that you had double-booked and needed to move my appointment to 5 PM. I arrived on time, yet I wasn't seated until 5:40 PM. As a full-time working mother, my time is incredibly valuable. What is the point of booking an appointment in advance if you cannot honor the scheduled time? This was already extremely disappointing. When I was finally seated, as expected, my nail technician seemed rushed. She had no idea what I had booked online, and I had to repeatedly remind her about the cuticle cleaning I had requested. Despite specifically booking an acrylic overlay and reiterating my preference, she proceeded with hard gel instead. By that point, I was exhausted and frustrated, and I simply wanted to get the service over with and go home rather than argue further. After nearly a two-hour delay and such a disappointing experience, I would have expected some form of service recovery, whether a discount or another gesture of goodwill. Instead, I was still charged a significant amount for a service that felt rushed and fell short of expectations. I was genuinely looking forward to having some relaxing self-care time, but instead, I left feeling frustrated, disappointed, and as though neither my time nor my preferences were respected. Please respect your clients' time and the services they specifically book. If you offer online appointments, you should be prepared to honor them and ensure your staff are aware of the services requested. This experience was unacceptable, and I hope you take this feedback seriously and make the necessary improvements.

I was such in a haze) but I see her again in 6 weeks so I'm stoked. The place was clean, very aesthetic and pretty. Definitely worth a try! I didn't try this place originally bc it's off a main street in La Mesa and I always end up going there around busy times, but this time I timed it, so I was able to find parking right out front. If I had more time, I would have stuck around for happy hour :)

She listened carefully to my skin concerns, explained every product, customized the treatment, and gave the most relaxing facial without cutting a single corner. My microdermabrasion add-on left my skin unbelievably smooth, radiant, and glowing. You can also tell she truly practices what she preaches--her own skin is flawless!

I've seen Shona only twice and after going to her I now feel like I've wasted my time looking for hair dressers. I should've been coming to Divine Design Hair Studio a long time ago! She really knows how to make a girl feel beautiful. It took me a long time to grow my hair out and I was afraid to get it cut again (another hair set back), but it was damaged and it needed to be done. Shona cut and styled my hair beautifully and made me feel great, plus my hair is healthier now! Not only is she a great hair stylist but she is an extremely sweet woman. She is officially my new hair guru! My sister and I come here all the time and don't regret it. The prices are reasonable (I even paid extra. That tells you how great she is!), the place has a "home-like" vibe, plus its neat and clean. Any style or hair texture, Shona has you covered. She truly goes above and beyond. I think other hair stylists better watch out, I smell competition!! Love you Shona! read more

Well, i have to say every time I leave the hair shop I feel brand new, relaxed, and ready for the world. I have been getting my hair done for the a few years(before the pandemic and return when she opened back up) but not going anywhere else until Mrs. Shona stops doing hair. :) Her shop environment is friendly fabulous and small. MOST IMPORTANT PART she does my baby girls hair too. THAT'S how much I trust her and she has growing hand. Both our hair grown. My daughter isn't a teenager yet and she's a drama queen but not with Mrs. Shona. I recommend! The Prices are right and its not an all day appointment and DRAMA free. read more

I am wearing 30inches 5 bundles and plan on getting 2 bundles of 40inches as well! She is very careful with the braids and isn't to tight but isn't to loose. She is really good with checking in with her clients to see if it's comfortable for them. I appreciate the extra love she puts into her craft! Also! The sew in was wonderful! I had pretty short hair and she made me look so amazing! I'm so happy to wear this style that protects my own hair so that I grow it to longer lengths and maybe someday have it actually be 40inches on its own. Make sure to treat yourself and give her a try you won't be sorry! It's way better to invest in hair that will last a long time then hair that will matte and fall apart in 5months.
