If you are looking for a massage or facial, Sensora Spa is THE go to place in Lawrence. After…read moretrying to find a massage therapist that could replace the one I had back in Chicago, I had just about given up hope until someone suggested Olivia at Sensora. And from my first visit, I was hooked by the skilled staff, and their attention to what I needed to have worked on. Given I travel a lot, I always have a kink in my neck or a twinge in my shoulders and Olivia is outstanding at listening to what I am trying to solve and then getting it done during my visits. Located in a nondescript office building on Iowa, this spa is a great find! Once you pull open the door, the sense of tranquility immediately hits you. Services are done on reservation only but they have a great website that makes it easy to schedule exactly what you want. Lara, the owner, is the person to see for a facial and came highly recommended by my friends. The service rooms are quiet, and if you go, you have to check out the restroom as the toilet truly earns the moniker "The Throne". If you are looking for a spa that will focus on your individual needs, then check out Sensora Spa. It's my new "go to" place!

Had my first nail appointment with Madeline, it was for a mani/pedi. She was very kind,…read moreconsiderate and I appreciated her attention to detail by asking during the mani/pedi if the length, shape and color was what I wanted, then I got a little massage. She did an excellent job. The salon is nice, clean and has a rustic vibe. I had plenty of colors to choose from, my petty chair was rocking the massage feature. I'm going back to see Madeline in a month, you should give this place a try and ask for Madeline!!! One more thing they are a full service salon, offering facials, massages and more.

There is a puzzling divergence between the few unhappy Yelp reviews of Dash Salon and the large…read morenumber of unanimously five star reviews on Google. But the Yelp reviews are not recent, so perhaps there has been a change at Dash. The location is somewhat of a problem. Dash is located in a building that includes Harmony Chiropractic and Rueschoff Security. But the neon sign on the street mentions only those two business and not Dash. In addition, the entrance to Dash is at the back of the building, so easily overlooked. Ashley from Salon Renew has moved to Dash. She is an excellent nail tech. Since Salon Renew has closed, I just went to Dash for a pedicure with my wife who got a manicure. As always, we were very happy with Ashley's work. We cannot comment on the hair styling or massage at Dash, since we have not tried them yet. But the facility is upscale and excellent. I would recommend giving it a try (if you can find it).

Douglas County is in a mask mandate meaning EVERYONE must have a mask on in a public setting at all times. While she was doing my lashes she got some of the chemicals IN MY EYE.

I've been going to this Salon for over ten years. Everyone is super nice. My stylist, Amy…read moreScheibler, is always happy and in a good mood. I have never had a negative experience in this salon. There have been at least two occasions where my hair was not like I wanted it. Amy worked me in and fixed it right up. It wasn't her fault for the mishap. I did not communicate to her what I wanted. Could not recommend 708 highly enough. They will do everything to make you feel comfortable, as well. You'll feel like a million bucks when you leave!!

She was very flexible in scheduling my…read morebridal trial, even letting me come to her home for my appointment to ensure I could fit it in the same day as my hair trial. I was so impressed with my trial, I wasn't sure she could top it on the wedding day! She surpassed all my hopes and expectations, making me feel more beautiful on my wedding day than I'd imagined. The make up stayed exactly as she'd applied it thru many happy tears, and hours of dancing and celebration. She also did make up for my mother, mother-in-law, and bridesmaids. All looked flawless and felt beautiful! Lindsey was funny, personable, and most of all professional. A true expert in her art, she was an asset to my wedding day and I'd recommend her in a heartbeat! Thank you Blush Spa!! ~Sarah D

I really enjoy Body Boutique. I know that it has had a bad reputation for not letting people out…read moreof their contracts. However, if you understand that it is very difficult to get out of without moving or proven health issues, then don't expect otherwise. You can sell your membership to someone else, though. All that aside. I really like it. There are good classes, a daycare, a discount at the spa and salon attached to it. The steam room, hot tub, and dry sauna have cooled cloths dipped in essential oils for when you get out. Nice. The equipment is well maintained and there is plenty of it. I recommend it completely.

This gym deserves 5/5 stars, however, the times they are open is VERY limiting…read more Mon-Friday (5AM - 7:30 PM) Saturday (8AM - 1PM) Sunday (9AM - 11AM) If the gym was open a little later on the weekends, like 2PM or 3PM, and open for an extra hour on weekdays, like 8:30 PM or even 9PM, more people would join! I have friends and my sister who all said they would join if they were open a little later. Other than the hours, it's an amazing gym! Being female only, I get amazing workouts in, stretching, take yoga, and find myself there for 2-3 hours when I have the time!
