Gosia SAVED MY FACE! I have been going to Elm for microneedling & facials for the past 7 months and my skin has made a complete 180 since my first session. I suffer from PCOS and with that comes horrible cystic hormonal acne. I went from having deep painful breakouts all over both of my cheeks and chin to almost completely clear skin today. (ask her to see before & after pics when you go see her!) She is a magician when it comes to skin care. On top of everything she uses the AMAZING organic skincare line Eminence, which I use myself at home. Her Brazilian waxes are hands down truly pain free and her spray tans are organic and super natural looking, which I love! As a person, Gosia is extremely warm, inviting & genuine. She always makes me feel comfortable and welcome in her space. I can't say enough good things about Gosia and Elm Boutique Spa. She is seriously a diamond in the rough. HIGHLY RECOMMEND! read more

I am VERY very picky when it comes to Brazilian waxes. Seriously, I do not let just anyone down there. I've been seeing Gosia for many many years nows and am THRILLED that she has opened her own location. Elm Boutique Spa is a beautiful labor of love and it shows. The space is impeccably clean, warm, and welcoming. I kinda want to live in there. Gosia is attentive, detail oriented, gentle, and knowledgeable. She is providing a boutique, personal experience hard to find in NYC these days. Not only have I been seeing Gosia for Brazilian waxes for many years, I have also entrusted her to help me with my total skin care regimen. Her facials are quality and her extractions better than any esthetician I have ever been to. People frequently ask what I'm doing to keep my skin looking so clean and fresh and I can truly attribute that to Gosia's work and her advice. She is the best. read more

I've been seeing Gosia for facials for almost a year now. Simply put, she is the best and has changed my skin for the better. The first time I saw her, I was impressed with her advice and suggestions for products to me. She suggested a product that I could only get on amazon and I thought that was so cool, that she wasn't just trying to sell me her own products, but rather what my skin really needed. That being said, Gosia introduced me to the Eminence line and I have never looked back. She does extractions better than anyone else (and does SO MANY which i LOVE), and the ambiance of her new location is wonderful. I won't see anyone else for facials, and have recommended many friends and family to her upon their complimenting my skin this last year. read more

I've been coming for spray tans with Gosia for over two years- when she was still working at the old location on 23rd St. I followed her to the new spa. I can truly recommend her services. First of all the spray she is using is organic, second the tan is always even without streaks or the dreaded 'Donald Tump effect' of orange color :-). I always come out looking natural and people complement me on my glowing skin. Last week I came to her new location at Elm spa on 11th st and I got another tan to avoid 'the end of the winter pale' look. I love the place and I love my new tan. I also occasionally get facials and Gosia is doing great jobs with extractions and care recommendations for my skin type. read more

I love Gosia! I have been going to her regularly for about 4 years and followed her when she moved from one place to open up her own spa. I originally started going to her because she was one of the few that use organic Eminence products. Her boutique spa is cozy and charming. I always get compliments on how beautiful my skin looks which I have to attribute to Gosia's magic. She is extremely knowledgeable on skin care, health, wellness, and clean living and only uses high quality products. In addition to always getting an amazing facial, I always leave In a great mood as she has great positive energy.....and is funny. With Gosia you're not only her client, you are her friend. read more

I followed Gosia here to her new location and have been going to her for Brazilian waxing and spray tans for several years - she is awesome! She is extremely thorough and gentle with waxing and the results are wonderful. Her spray tan is perfect - she tailors the color depending on your skin type (I'm pretty pale) and desired outcome - do you want to look tanned or just have a glow? She only uses organic products and you can choose from an array of delicious scents for the spray tanning. I love her new location - it's easy to get to on the train and it's tranquil with a very calming ambiance. I wouldn't go anywhere else! Trust Gosia, you will not be disappointed! read more

This is my third time getting eyelash and eyebrow shape & tint with Gosia and she's just great! I'm very picky about getting my eyebrows done because they are very fair so I have to tint them (or otherwise fill them in every day). And all the other places I've tried in NYC didn't do a good job, bc I wasn't pleased with the shape and the dye was usually very chemical and caused irritation. Gosia uses henna and I love it. It's natural, it doesn't hurt and stays on longer:) I haven't done facials here yet, but I've used the products that Gosia recommended and they really helped my skin. The place is very cozy and I like the ambiance a lot read more

It's taken me a long time to find an esthetician that I trust to continually care for my skin. I'm so glad i found Gosia! She always tries to work with my schedule and is so accommodating. Her services (especially facials !!!) are fantastic. She has a soft touch, uses gentle skin care products and is so meticulous when doing the extraction. My skin is always so clean and glowing after my facial with Gosia. She's great! I highly recommend her to anyone interested in top-notch care with a knowledgeable and caring esthetician. I love Elm Butique Spa, Gosia and her services. read more

I was looking for a facial spa in the West Village neighborhood and happened to stumble upon this little gem and I HIGHLY recommend booking a session for yourself! I have very sensitive skin which, is prone to acne and Gosia was extremely professional and thorough in her holistic approach to skin cleansing.She took the time to explain each step of the process and never tried to up-sell any products. After some consideration, I decided to sample her products and can confidently say that they work far better than those expensive cremes such as La Mer. read more

Gosia has been my aesthetician for the last three years. She recently opened Elm Spa, and as expected, the spa is lovely. Clean, homey, and a good size--separate rooms for tanning and waxing. I go to Gosia for a Brazilian every six weeks. She uses organic hard wax (and doesn't charge extra for it) that's easy on my skin. I look forward to my Brazilian, something I never thought I'd say before Gosia; she is easy-going and friendly. Go to Elm Spa for a great experience. Call ahead for directions. It's easy to get lost on the first visit. read more

After trying virtually every spray tan place in NYC, I can really say Gosia is the best around. Being a modest person, Gosia has always put me at ease and I have always left so happy with the results. There is a reason for her numerous and loyal clientele (models included). This is as good as airbrush tanning gets: the results just speak for themselves. Each tan has been absolutely natural looking with no streaks or smudges ever. I HIGHLY recommend her to anyone interested in spray tanning. She is hands-down THE BEST IN NYC. read more

Need to do a second review because Elm Boutique Spa just keeps getting better and better! Owner Gosia has brought a new masseuse and reflexologist on board, Sofia, and she's amazing. I had the most relaxing and soul-soothing experience with a Banya bath ritual and extra long reflexology session. My tired New York feet really needed this! She is truly talented! Sofia is such a calming presence, she's a wonderful addition to Elm Boutique Spa which is frankly just so amazing and consistent. Highly recommend! read more

I cannot say enough wonderful things about Gosia and Elm Spa. I was referred to her by someone I trusted to get microneedling done, and I'm so grateful that I was. She is not only beyond sweet, but is highly professional, honest, very reasonably priced and skilled in everything that she does. She is a rare find, and I've recommended her to several of my close friends. I also love the line of products that she uses. You really can't go wrong with any of the treatments you decide to do with her. read more

I have been going to Gosia for about a year now. She is very professional and gentle when it comes to waxing. Her new salon is beautiful, very clean and welcoming. I have never had an issue when it comes to timing of my appointments. She is always on time, and if I need to re-schedule, she is always very understanding. I highly recommend her services- simply go and experience it yourself ;) read more

I've been coming for Brazilian wax to Gosha for over a year now. The reasons for that are simple - I like when it's done quickly, effectively yet gentle. 100% painless Brazilian waxing. The place is suited in charming neighborhood, spa is beautifully decorated, very peaceful and clean (super important!). Will recommend Gosha's services to all of my friends. read more

If you want to get 5 star treatment then this is the place. From start to finish the Elm Boutique Spa really makes you feel amazing inside and out. The ambiance and the professional care is exactly what I was looking for. The skin care is high quality and you leave feeling like a brand new person. Thank you, thank you, thank you! read more

I got a facial here, and was very pleased by the comfortable atmosphere and excellent service. I felt really welcome, and I appreciated that any questions I had about products or procedures were answered so knowledgeably. not only did I have a great experience, but I learned a lot! I definitely want to come back. read more

This is a gem to be discovered in the heart of the west village. The inside is clean and quaint and Gosia genuinely cares about the results of her work. I had a spray tan done here. The solution used is 100% organic and ended up being one of the best, if not the best, spray tans I've ever had. read more

I absolutely love Elm Boutique! As this is my second time here. Gosha is so great at what she does. I usually can't stand waxing because of all the pain, but she has the good stuff to make it a pain - free experience. So now I can get my waxing done in confidence! read more
