She took around 4,5hrs to finish my box braids, which to me was a record. Also at some point I noticed had to change the braids color, since I had 2 different one's, as she had done too many of one color, and she was happy to open a few of them and make the change (that was just a communication issue). The only con is that the scheduled time wasn't well fulfilled, since it should have started at 9am and I was informed of the delays when contacting them only, and was not informed ahead of time. But I had time available and I understood she had to come from Manassas to Vienna. Besides that, great service!

My esthetician is located out of state (I travel), but decided I should have one near my home base. I don't buy into the Elizabeth Arden and fluffy spas, because I don't need to be fluffed and pampered, I want the real deal treatment. Plus, I don't see the need pay someone to slap and lather creams on my face. I usually want micro-dermabrasion or other procedures requiring the use of devices. After reading the reviews and checking out her website, I thought it would be good place to go, because I don't want the frills, I just want to get straight to business of perfecting my skin. Sandra Cope creeps me out. There is something creepy about her, and something about her demeanor, I just don't trust her. She does talk A LOT like everyone mentioned. I think its eerie, very unusual for someone to recite an entire soliloquy, completely disregarding whether or not I am paying attention. She puts on a show, whether or not you like it, which feeds back to, something off about her demeanor. The face-to-face interaction was just unnatural experience. Look lady, I don't care about what you have to say. I'm here already, I know how much you charge, I'm still going to pay you, so save yourself the breath, lets get to work already. The talking lasted longer than the actual work. She told me she was going to extract the blemishes on my face. I have pretty clear complexion, only minor blemishes. So it shouldn't take that long, but she didn't do my entire face (although she charged me for it). People raved Sandra for helping to clear their face. So the extraction must be her trademark. But her "technique" isn't so special. All she does is take a hospital thumb tack needle looking thing and poke your pimples and then squeeze your pimple juices. I'm not sure if I like this technique, or if its effective. No one should be poking holes in your face. She emphasizes avoiding germs from your face. Well creepy old lady, you just poke and repoke my face with the same needle..everytime you poke a hole in my face with that needle, its got the juices from the previous pimple... 2 weeks later, I still had scars from the holes she poked in my face with the needles. Then she did a little dermabrasion. And slapped some creams on my face. $125. I knew it would be this price, but I seriously thought I was coming to the skin guru for secret time reversal treatment. It ended up being a backward practice (poking needles in the face) and cream slapping - all something I could have done at home. So I feel like, all I did was pay for the quick wave of the dermabrasion wand. Definitely NOT a $125 value. (You can pinch and squeeze your own pimples at home) Ladies - I get dermabrasion all the time. You should know the value of dermabrasion. With my regular esthetician, I only pay $50 for an hour long dermabrasion plus an hour long facial (this includes extractions). I understand its hard to find that kind of deal in this neighborhood. But just know that I pay $50 for dermabrasion. Try to find a place that offers pricing comparable to that. As for Sandra Cope's product line she basically forces you to buy. Like I said, wrinkles make me flip a switch and automatically my checkbook comes out. To lay out all of the facts - I never consistently used a skin care regimen. And often times I just go to sleep after a quick shower at the gym. But since I paid a pretty penny, and want to take skin care seriously, I've been using Sandra's 4 steps almost everyday. I no longer dry splotches and wrinkles faded a little. I think its because I've actually been moisturizing - can't say its the credit of the 4 steps, but the mere act of moisturizing. I recommend you ladies try moisturizing the face every day and night with other products before buying Sandra's products. She also gave me an antibacterial serum to use on blemished skin. She said I could use it on occasional breakouts, and any skin flaws on my body. So I put it on my right elbow and right knee. My right elbow has a scab that never goes away (because I keep picking at it). And my right knee has discolored skin/bruise from a fall I had in May. I rubbed the serum on TWICE. And now I have a rash that won't go away. Its been over a month. Another thing.. Someone previously posted that Sandra's son showed up during a session. He did during my session too. If you aren't dressed like an employee, no grown up man, not quite old enough to be my father, wearing jeans and a flannel should be standing by the doorway peering into the room while I am laying down, beckoning, "mom...mom....mom..." It was an odd odd experience. She's old yet has amazing skin. There is a creepy factor to her, kind of like the luring witch in Hansel and Gretal

I am surprised that Sandra Cope is already on Yelp, to be honest. She was sold to me as "Old Town's…read morebest-kept secret." I heard about her for the first time last year, when a 40-something woman came into Bellacara, where I work on weekends, who had amazing skin. Gesturing to the walls, I asked her which product line she was using for her skin care regimen, and she whispered in my ear: "Oh, honey, I don't use any of this stuff. I go to Sandra Cope." My ears perked up, and she filled me in on the details, including that a typical facial takes two or more hours. I haven't had the time to schedule such a facial until last Friday, when I showed up for my 12:30 p.m. and didn't have to be at the airport until 3 p.m. to pick up the Welshman. Sandra blew my mind. Her own skin was astounding. She is 70, but her skin looks 30, max. Her knowledge of the skin as an organ, as well as the beauty and pharmaceutical industries, is beyond impressive. She did tell me that her line was developed from treating burn victims, where healing and regrowth, as well as protection against bacteria, are essential. She pointed out how most beauty products on the market--from Lancome to La Mer--have essentially the same basic ingredients, no matter what the price tag. And she also thinks that no company spending the kind of money on advertising most big beauty companies do can really put out a quality product--it's just not financially possible. She told me how doctors are quick to prescribe Accutane to pizza-faced teens and adults, but that Accutane is incapable of discriminating within a person's body what to dry out. So in addition to drying out the skin, Accutane also dries out your brain and productive organs. I've had problems on my chin with acne since I hit 30. I thought it was hormones, since they pop up right before "that time of the month" and everyone always laments how your body changes as you age. Sandra took one look at my face and chin and said "that's viral." Basically, the acne I was suffering from was due to a virus that got under my skin via something nasty on money, a door handle or a phone. The extraction was torturous. I, like the Maria M., definitely shed some tears of pain. Sandra followed up with some light therapy, leaving me under an intense lamp for close to 20 minutes to address my viral acne. She then followed up with a facial consisting of her products. It kind of creeped me out, but at the end she applied makeup (organic powder) that she has specially made for her. She said it's to create a barrier and seeps into the products. I recreated the effect with my Becca Cosmetics pressed powder today (Tuesday) and it looked fantastique. Aloe is the main ingredient in her line, formulated by herself and her sister's husband (a burn victim doctor) as well as a few other experts and crafted down in her lab in Lorton, Va. All of her ingredients are organic (you can buy her line at Whole Foods, by the way). She also uses a lot of jojoba, bearberry, shea butter and lots of other water-soluble ingredients. Sandra wasn't super specific on how to use her products, even though I bought about five of them. I had to pry her for directions. She was very chatty and full of knowledge. She also cut me a deal. I'll be back in six weeks to check my progress and will update accordingly!

Came across Lush Japanese Head Spa from social media and I'll be honest I'm normally a little skeptical of actually checking places out that I come across on social media because they tend to never really deliver in any aspect. With that being said I am so happy I stepped out of my comfort zone and made the appointment a Lush Japanese Head Spa. I booked the Deluxe Experience and yes the services lived up to the name in every way. It included a relaxing scalp massage that started with a scalp analysis that was taken before and after the service. I have never had this done before but was surprised to see the before and after shots. Once we were done with the analysis I was taken back to a very cute room and this is where we entered in full relaxation mode. The Deluxe Experience also included the use of a dry scalp brush for deep exfoliation and cleansing, a hair mask, and steam and hot oil treatment, all to promote a healthier scalp and hair. Let me not forgot the hot towels, eye mask and neck, shoulders and arm massage. If you take the time to read my reviews you will see that I am a person who very much appreciates an experience and Ms. Melissa delivered an unforgettable experience in every way possible. If you're in the area do yourself a favor and book one of the experience at Lush Japanese Head Spa. I promise you will not be disappointed.
