I recently got a facial from Kirsten, and was a bit disappointed, especially after seeing all the…read moreincredible reviews on Yelp! That was the whole reason I booked, and so I went in with high hopes. Let me start by saying Kirsten is a very kind woman. For the facial itself, there seemed to be much more massage (hands, arms, neck) than treatment. Felt nice, but not what I booked. I had a few white heads, her esthetician-modality doesn't believe in traditional extractions, so these were left untouched. Multiple times, she left the treatment room to let people into the boutique, which took away from feeling relaxed. Lastly, when we wrapped up, I saw it was 30 minutes past the allotted time I booked (ended at 3:50 on my appointment booking, saw my watch around 4:18). I had a commitment at 4:30, so this left me in a pinch. Maybe it was an off day, maybe this is standard, but I will likely not be returning.

Had a gel manicure peel off three fingers after 48 hours. Generally just room appears dirtier & dirtier each time I go and there's lots of conversation between techs that feels like judgement of clients. UPDATE: Owner personally contacted me and wants me to try again. I have a service scheduled in a couple days. I do think they care,. I'm giving it another try. UPDATE # 2: Went in for my complimentary classic mani/pedi. They were right on it: no waiting, right to business. Both the mani and pedi went well. I did have to ask for a drying machine for my mani, just to be sure it would dry. I'm grateful they offered me this service for free and I feel better about it all. They care and really tried. I left a big tip for both technicians and I will consider coming back again. I should ask for specific people if I do go back. I think it matters.

I spoke with Christine, the owner. Do you know what her response was? She comped me the wax service during which I had been burned on the most sensitive part of my body, gave me a $100 gift certificate, and told me to book with a different technician. Big deal. Girl! I could sue you. The owner's response was weak. During another service, the waxer was high. She pulled my hair out so hard that the hair grew back grey. So I now have 1/2 grey pubic hair and 1/2 black pubic. I kid you not. I have been going to La Tira for 20 years, and I was a loyal customer. Now I've come to my senses. I'm going someplace else.

I first discovered her 14 years ago and she introduced me to Brazilian sugaring. I quickly became a regular because she was so good. I moved away for many years and forgot SF Sugaring was inside Sol y Luna. She is still the best- as fast, friendly, minimal pain and thorough. I can't recommend her enough, even if that means harder to get an appointment, because her techniques and how much of herself she gives to clients deserve to yield success and she really goes above and beyond.

I did a Signature Facial with Cat the first time and loved how we started with a breathing exercise with oils to set the ambiance. This second time was with Naomi. I had the Gua Sha Facial. We started with LED lights for the arms and hands which was a first for me. Both times were so relaxing I fell asleep. Unfortunately for the second time it was during the gua sha (haha) so I don't remember most of that part. My face was glowing both times. I like how they include tip in the price. I knocked off a star because they charge a $10 credit card fee but the cost is too high to be carrying cash for it. I have bought a Gua sha tool from them, specifically to help with pressure points and migraines. I also got an attar balm recommended by my aesthetician to help with my dry patches on my cheek. I recommend coming here to treat yourself!

I've never had any facial or massage that made me so relaxed to the point where I could focus on nothing else, but Naomi changed that!! She did such an incredible job that I just couldn't feel distracted by anything else in my life - not even the thought of what I'd eat for lunch. Her technique and procedure was both relaxing and functional, which is a huge indicator of value for me. When the facial was over, I gasped because of how soft my skin felt (I came in with pretty dry skin)! One of the biggest reasons I booked at Monastery is because they make so many of their own products with very natural ingredients. Although I didn't intend to buy products that day, I ended up leaving with the Lapiz body oil and Rose cleansing oil. I am not a skin care person, but these products might be making me look forward to it more. Also of note: Monastery was incredibly clean and quiet. Minimal and elegant. I am absolutely going to book with Naomi again, and I really hope to bring my mom here sometime soon!!

My facialist was Winnie, and overall the experience was fine -- efficient and straightforward. The facial itself was thorough, including gentle but effective extractions using the traditional finger method, and they also added a neck massage during the process, which was a nice bonus. They use a combination of Korean skincare products (I noticed Cellmax / Cellmax Fusion). Is it amazing? Not exactly. Not bad, but not excellent either. It's one of those places where you go when you just want to get a facial without needing anything fancy. Would I go back? I'm not sure -- mostly because I no longer live in the area. But when I did live nearby, it was a convenient, reliable option for a quick facial.

This is hands down my favorite place in the city. I recently had a massage with Angela and it was so amazing it finally made me sit down and write this review. It might honestly be one of the best massages I've ever had. She somehow knows exactly where to focus without you having to say much, and I left feeling completely relaxed and reset. I've also seen Chanra many times, and every single time I walk out thinking, "Okay, I really need to leave a review." She is consistently amazing. With both Angela and Chanra, I feel like I completely unplug from everything. It's that kind of massage where you lose track of time and don't want it to end. If you're debating where to book, this is the place. I can't recommend them enough.

And only after I left did I realize that I didn't get the "chrome" finish on my nails that I selected. 24hrs later the gel polish is already peeling. I paid $80 and left a $20 tip.
