I stumbled upon this place about 3 years ago, looking for a place to take care of my aches and pains. First, it is such a great and convenient location for me, easy to get to with ample parking. Helen and her team are patient, responsive, and always willing to work with me to find a time that will work for me to come in. I now come on a regular basis for my self-care. I look forward to my monthly sessions to help release all the tension and stress! I am so grateful for Tiffany who is so good at what she does, using a variety of techniques to help me manage my aches and tightness. She will adjust her technique and pressure based upon your comfort level. I always feel so much better after each session. She also has helped advise me in helping me with my overall skin care, recommending products from the Skinceutical line. I notice a significant difference in my skin health overall, and I also feel at ease knowing I am protecting it for its future health as well. They are accommodating, never pushy, and feel like family. I really appreciate this neighborhood gem! read more

I just had another facial, and Back facial at Helen's Haven from Cassie......... and let me tell you it was fabulous! That girl knows how to handle that equipment and is so neat and careful!

She is a graduate from Sacred Heart Academy and is well educated, and has had a wonderful upbringing as an only child. I had a wonderful time today and my skin looks amazing.!!!!!! Thank you so much Cassie. I loved my appointment and I will definitely be back. read more

Wonderful medical spa that I will recommend to all my friends! I am so grateful Dr. Val was recommended to me, as well.

I got my usual Foundational Facial w/neck & shoulder massage from Tiffany and added a Cold Plasma treatment (they were running a special ($50) to try it out for the month of August). Tiffany explained what she was doing, even let me see the tool she was using and what it was doing to my skin. Overall very happy with the Cold Plasma treatment. The added treatment gave my face a brighter feel. I've been getting facials from Tiffany for about 2 years now and am happy each time I go . . face is clean, white/blackheads are extracted and I feel the condition of my skin is better than it was 2 years ago and the products they use (Skinceuticals) are scientifically formulated. Tiffany uses medium to hard pressure when doing the neck/shoulder massage, which is fine for me. Relaxing for sure! read more

So great! We were visiting from out of town and they took such wonderful care of us! Open late, easy access, great advice, the best products and very reasonably priced - what more can you ask for! Thanks so much! read more

Dr. Val is amazing! She has a way of making you feel very comfortable and safe. She has excellent recommendations. I definitely felt like she cared more about how beautiful I felt than making money. I will be using her for everything related to my face! read more

Wow! I looooove Helen's Haven. Val is the best on island for injectables. A doctor with massive depth of knowledge and experience in her field, not to mention a warm and welcoming demeanor. I also love coming into Helen's Haven for a massage or facial. Such a comfortable atmosphere and convenient location with plenty of parking (there's more in the back!). Every esthetician and masseuse I've had there is very skilled and thorough. The prices are quite reasonable compared to other med-spas in the area. Can't recommend Helen's Haven enough! So good!! read more

I am a client for Helen's Haven for nearly 17 years. I am always looking forward to my monthly visit with Tiffany. She is the best massage therapist and esthetician in my opinion. What I like the most about Tiffany is that she has a calm healing energy so, I always feel relaxed and rejuvenated after the visit. I am very grateful for her service. Thank you very much Tiffany!!! read more

Best spa on Oahu. Even though it's not as "trendy" (ambiance wise) as other spas, the services are by far the bests. I've been to many spas for both facial and massage services and Helen's Haven has the best facials. I highly recommend. Tip: Journey is an excellent esthetician! read more

Tiffany is da bomb when it comes to massages and facials. I've been seeing her for countless years and she knows how to get into my tight spots of pain and problem parts of my skin. I always feel relaxed and refreshed after a session with her. Mahalo nui loa to Helen for assembling such a star team. Truly a special spa! read more

Tiffany is amazing! I'm always impressed with her calm energy. Love coming here every month!

I just have to post another review!! I absolutely love this place. I finally took my 20-year-old daughter today and she just fell in love with the place also. They are Literally the best! They are so professional and do such a great job! If you want your face to feel amazing, GO HERE!!!! read more

I had a wonderful first-time experience for a facial here and I really enjoyed it! My face was glowing after they were done! Their steamer actually steamed my whole face ... opening all of my pores. Their products are light weight and top notch - and that's something I'm particular about because I don't like wearing anything heavy /sticky on my face. They now have a new loyal customer for facials! Thanks Helen's Haven! read more

Helen's Haven - Suggested items post-facial. I bought the tinted sun defense and the travel pack on the right. - Skin Care Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

As always, Helen's Haven delivers outstanding aesthetic services by caring and knowledgeable professionals, just like the owner, Helen does. Thank you, Bella, for giving me the BEST dermaplaining treatment -- my face feels refreshed and rejuvenated. I shall return for the many other healing services that Helen's Haven provides.

My first time in any kind of facial/massage spa and Helen's Haven did not disappoint.Helen made me feel extremely comfortable and has a clean and calming environment. I can't wait to go back ! read more

The BEST for botox and fillers with Val. Always happy with the results and appointments.

So happy I found this place. Karlyn is rescuing and restoring my skin. I have had acne for 20 years! She is helping me to heal and resurface. They have so many options here to suit your skin needs. And very knowledgeable staff. The pricing is fair enough that I can come back every couple weeks, which is needed right now. Very grateful for that. Mahalo gals read more

Helen's Haven is your 21st century skin care provider! There is an app (highly recommend) that makes it easy to book appointments, and understand your treatment. There is even a loyalty program that provides discounts on services and products! The atmosphere is cool, clean, and calm. Everyone is friendly, and there isn't any hard sell of products or services. I was very pleased with my 'corrective and hydrating skintech mini facial'-- 55 minutes later, my skin feels moist, and appears brighter. Helen is a consumate professional, and I highly recommend you pay her a visit! read more

I go to Karlyn for mini facials every few months and she does a brilliant job everytime! I feel so relaxed after the hour is up that I don't feel like driving home which is only 6 miles away! Lol! Her extractions are thorough and gentle with minimal pain but my skin glows after each session. Karlyn is professional, knowledgeable, sweet and very thoughtful! Their parking is free and so conveniently located infront of their establishment so my face doesn't bake in the hot Hawaiian sun right after a beautiful infusion of skin food. They're located in the waialae Kahala area , near the mall. I resolve to come here every month except they're always busy so book in advance! They also offer Botox and filler services here which I'm interested in. Will post a review when I do! Their receptionist Christina is polite, efficient and sweet as well! Thank you ladies for always making my experience wonderful and hassle free! read more

Helens Haven is just that -a Haven!! So many up to date procedures and products without inflated costs. Love the staff and Dr Val!! You won't be disappointed. read more

Helen's Haven is a little hidden gem tucked in a little white building behind the Lanikai Juice/UPS store near Kahala Mall. I haven't had the luxury of coming to this place for over 4 years but since my generous sister gave me a hefty gift certificate for Christmas, I treated myself to the: Helen's Haven Signature Facial Approx. 80 minutes $93 Includes: * Cleansing. Brushing, Steaming, and Extractions * Massaging Arms and Hands, Shoulders, Neck and Face * Applying Essential Oils * High Frequency * Mask, Spray Machine, Skin Firming Products, Moisturizers, and Sunscreen I don't usually like people shooting hot steam up my nose or touching my forehead and slapping magic potions on my face, which is why I've only had one facial before in my life. But this time, I made an appointment with Helen herself just to see what all the hype is about. She did not disappoint. Helen is FABULOUS. First off, when I told her I don't get regular facials, she asked what products I use. She didn't laugh or try to sell me something after I told her I just use Neutrogena or whatever I can find at Long's/CVS. She just started with the cleansing and just kind of worked her magic. Extractions: Ouch. I guess when you have 4+ years of sebum baked in your pores, it can get pretty ugly. I asked her if she found any caterpillars when she was squeezing the pores. She just laughed and said "It's not that bad". Yeah right. I'm sure she probably couldn't believe all the stuff that came out of my face. Microdermabrasion: I decided to try my very first microdemabrasion treatment. The machine shoots tiny aluminum oxide crystals at your face, sort of resurfacing your face...it feels like a mini vacuum cleaner going up and down your face. Not painful at all. Upper body massage: was lovely...but I'm more of a massage kind of person anyway. End results: My face felt much cleaner when I left, my pores looked a little bit smaller, and the skin looked different. I think I may actually like facials now. Two days after the facial my face started peeling like a snake shedding it's old skin, probably from the microdermabrasion. It looks like little scales flaking off my face, good thing I don't have to take pictures or anything soon. I'm pretty flaky right now! I can't wait to see what's been hiding under all of this dry old skin. read more

First I went to Heaven on Earth for a deep tissue massage session, just to get out some unresolved issues with my legs. I was like, that ain't so bad, since I heard guys go there too and it's not purely for women. So, here I am at Helen's attempting to get those other beautification treatments: ie facials and the like. I do would like to look younger and this place fits the bill for style and location. This place ain't cheap, but it is value oriented. Like the other reviews have siad, nothing fancy and it's really back to basics. I didn't ask them if guys come here and get facials or not, but I hope they do, since I'm sure I'm not the first guy who's gotten one. But yeah, this place is where you need to go for your needs. This place is clean and the atmosphere is really comparable to the other places I have been to, but not opted for their services. I hadn't realized how much crap that was on my face when they told me. All I used was those Oxy pads for acne. lol. It took roughly an hour, but I had a nice experience. Worth every penny! Tucked in the heart of Kahala, within the complex that houses Lanikai Juice, it's your best kept secret to what ails your mind and body. Near Kahala Mall, you can go shopping after your scheduled appointment. What's not to love about that. There is a private lot if you drive, but I normally just walk down from my home, since it's just about a mile or so anyway. Support local! A+ read more

for their massages: Great massage place. No frills, nothing fancy. This is more like massage therapy. Tell them what is ailing you, and they will get to it. If you are looking for the fancy schmancy spa day then this isn't your spot. There are no robes, slippers, lockers, or fancy lava rock showers. But at something like 70 bucks for an hour long massage, the theraputic value is amazing. I walked out in pain--the good pain--after my massage with Karlyn. The more specific you are with them, the better treatment you'll get. They do a lot of other treatments so it's a little freaky when you walk in and there's a huge poster for Botox but don't worry they don't slip some botox in you when you're not looking or anything. They have $20 referral cards, so try to snag one before you go for the first time! There are a few parking spaces in the front and they take credit cards. read more

I've never been a spa or facial type of person, but 2020 was so depressing I decided I needed a pick-me-up. I was aware of Helen's Haven, an established local business, so even thought I live on the other side of the island I decided to make an appointment with Karlyn and I'm so glad I did. She's extremely knowledgeable and skilled and she's better at extractions than my dermatologist! I look forward to sampling more of the services offered at this wonderful establishment. On a side note, I treated my daughter to a facial when she visited over the summer and she loved it. She wasn't able to get an appointment with Karlyn but she had great things to say about Jurnee! read more

A truly relaxing experience. Always enjoy Helen's Haven facials and massages. Everyone is friendly, professional and you always are made to feel comfortable. Thank you Cristi for always accommodating either my Mom and I or my Cousin and I for facials and or massages at the same time. Thank you to Helen, Karlyn and Tiffany for both amazing facials and massages and to Linda for amazing massages. If you're thinking about trying Helen's Haven, think no further. Just call and make your appointment! read more

Great Location. One, just one of the good things about Helen's Haven is the location. Easy access. No need to hassle with a busy mall. There is always amble parking and only a few steps to the shop. Another good thing is the people there. Always welcoming. Here's another good thing. They offer awesome services from facials to massages to the latest beautifying therapy. All the technicians are skilled and professional. I would not think of going anywhere else. read more

I got a massage here the other week. The lady I had actually really gave it to me. I'm on the petite side, and usually when people give me a massage, they are afraid to put pressure because I might "break". However, this lady REALLY put a lot of pressure on me. Which was a good thing, and a bad thing. It was good because I was thinking that this was actually going to work....but it's a bad thing because it was so painful. I didn't want to say anything like it's too much pressure because I thought it would just turn out to be another one of those fuufy massages.... I think it was around $105 or $110 for a 90 minute massage, but I had a $100 gift certificate so I didn't pay the full price. I guess I would go back...but I wouldn't rush back.... read more

I'm not a "review" type of guy, unless it's well deserved. I have been going to Helen's for two years now. Every time, I've always experienced the same small professional, friendly, caring, passionate, skilled, knowledgeable and happy staff that greets you with genuine smiles and makes sure your comfortable and well taken care of. It's my go-to for all my self-care services - facials, extractions, micro needling, massages and all the new top of the line amenities they have to offer. I always feel confident gifting friends, family, and co-workers for birthdays and holidays, knowing they will be walking out feeling happy and celebrated and wanting to go back soon as I always do. I highly recommend. read more

I went here for PDO threads with Valerie and I'm in love, yes there were some minor things that occurred at the beginning some swelling but it's to be expected and she fully divulged to me the side effects before procedure. Talent and bedside manner/kindness are what I look for in a nurse and Valerie completely exceeded my expectations 10 out of ten recommend and their prices are phenomenal read more

I've had 5 micro needling sessions with both Helen and Tiffany and I am a fan. This business is professional, welcoming, flexible and reputable. I think I found them by randomly googling facial procedures, so I decided to just wing it, and they've been my go-to ever since. Not like they need anymore 5 star ratings lol but one more doesn't hurt! I can see why they're so highly rated. I most definitely recommend this business. Call or email and they're flexible with your schedule and needs. read more

I experienced the HIFU RF & MICRO CURRENT facial yesterday with Amber Rial. What a treat! She explained the procedure so I knew what to expect. My skin felt amazing after!! Amber is also a very experienced massage therapist. I felt well cared for. Mahalo. read more

Awesome! Best massage you'll ever have in your life! I've had many professional massages before but this one was hands down the best ever. The environment is so relaxing and beautiful- the aromatherapy and music is top notch, the the massage itself is beyond words incredible! Their massage therapist is a master of her profession! read more

Absolutely amazing!! One of the best experiences of my life. I've gotten a few facials before but this one was the best by far. Many places focus on relaxing and barely extract, this place does BOTH! I really felt like they got into my skin and pulled out all the nasty stuff. Totally worth the money, honestly such a good price for what you're getting. It just kept getting better and better as time went on. GO TO HELEN'S HAVEN!! read more
