    I arrived at the location, just now. The door man would not allow me to come in, and no one is answering the phone. There were no directions on the website to circumvent this occurrence. Online booking is disabled. I wasted my time coming here.

    I have been Leila Klein's client for over a year now and have used her for manicures, pedicures and facials. I return because she not only does an outstanding job and is the most detailed aesthetician I've ever had, she also accommodates my schedule and mood and adapts accordingly. She offers a waterless pedicure so don't be surprised there is no soaking. The polish lasts much longer than other "wet" mani/pedis, it's a much more sanitary process and you still get hot towels, paraffin, etc that results in super soft skin. She makes my 50+ feet, that have been used and abused with running, cycling, hiking, skating and skiing over the years, look soft and supple. Thank you Leila!

    Leila is a gem, true find. Not only does she use top products and techniques but she is incredibly personable with fun energy. Her location is clean, smells great and you feel completely safe. And luckily it's one on one which puts you at ease during these times.

    Updating my review because I'm disappointed in my results. I was only given one layer of gel & after a week and a half, it started to peel off heavily. I hated the way it looked so I've now completely removed the gel I had done at the salon. It should not have been that easy to do, it usually has to be removed at the salon. I wish I could say better things because I did enjoy my time at the salon. It has a great view of the space needle & my nail lady was so sweet.

    Leila was able to get me in for a last minute appointment and I am SO happy that I found her! She was incrediblysweet and gave me one of the greatest manicures I've ever had. Highly recommend her for a flawless mani! Follow up: my manicure lasted for exactly four weeks before chipping. Hands down one of the longest lasting manicures I've seen!

    I'm visiting from out of town for a conference and I chipped a nail at the airport. I checked Yelp and found Leila and she was able to get me in the next morning. She was incredibly sweet and did a great job on my mani. The space was a little hidden but she texted me that I had to enter next door to the Ace Hardware, 1913 4th Ave, so I found it no problem. The space was super cute with nice sunny windows. Thanks for a beautiful mani Leila!

    You can see the ragged edge of my cuticles.

    I scheduled mani pedis for my daughter and Me. When I arrived I was immediately disappointed because it is only Leila in the shop so it had to be done one at a time, and - there was no foot soak. In spite of that, I was willing to give it a chance. But when all was said and done, I did not get a massage nor did my daughter, as described in services I paid for. And the cuticle care was done with an electric tool that spun. It actually hurt. And by the next day, my cuticles were ragged like they are when clipped instead of properly cared for. Plus my daughter is a smoker and Leila made some rude remarks regarding the smell on my daughter and Leila's sensitivity. Nothing on her website says anything about that. And in a business full of smells, some of which can be intense, it was very surprising. All in all, it was THE most expensive manicure and pedicure I have ever had, and is the second worst one I have ever had. I was very disappointed

    Engagement nails thanks to Leila

They really take their time with prep, shaping, and making sure everything looks clean and perfect. Every time I get my nails done here, the finish is flawless and feels like a mirror. At other salons, you never really know how it's going to turn out, but here every single person I've had has done amazing work. The quality is always consistent, and everyone is so kind and professional. You can tell they care about what they do. I'll only trust this place from now on. It's truly the best, and I always leave feeling so happy with my nails.

    It pains me to write this review because I have been going here for years…read more I got a gel manicure last Friday. The front desk girls were nice. The initial first half of my appointment was fine. Things shifted towards the second half of my appointment. I accidentally dipped my hands back in water after my nails were filed and buffed. The tech I was working with (Lily) seemed visibly annoyed with me. I felt very awkward for the rest of my appointment. After that happened, she was weirdly pushy and abrupt with my hands while curing the gel nails under the LED light. That wasn't even the worst part. During the gel application, I saw this girl wipe her cleanup brush with extra alcohol directly onto the granite countertop, then use the same brush directly on my skin to clean the excess gel on my hands. I have always seen techs here use a paper towel (or another white towel) for this. I was so grossed out. To top off this experience, the hot towel and hand massage at the end of my appointment was super rushed and not thorough at all. So disappointing. I hope this was a fluke, but sad to say I will probably be going elsewhere.

Making the appointment through Vagaro was easy, walked me through a thorough intake form, and allowed me to choose my esthetician. I went with Allegra who was a darling from the minute I stepped into Dermaspace. Any worries or fears quickly drifted off given the dim lighting, chill music and zen ambiance. Allegra had a sweet personality, explained the entire process from start to finish, was knowledgeable about anything related to skincare and health, and most importantly, gentle. The facial was around an hour and fifteen minutes, including a discussion of my skin concerns, allergies, goals, etc. It consisted of roughly four total steps: 1) Gentle facial cleansing and exfoliation 2) Moisturization and detoxification using yucca soaked cloth within a volcanic heated cone 3) Deep cleaning of my entire face, clearing out any and all clogged pores 4) Ionization facial wrap of nourishing cotton with a leather mask connected to low voltage electrical current in order to ionize the solution. Afterwards, my face felt completely refreshed and as if years were taken off. There is a reason it has won the best facial in Seattle/PNW for many years--the treatment is truly results driven and very effective. I plan to be back soon.
