I went to Kelly at Kriskell and she fixed my uneven cut at my first appointment. I love that she took the time to sit down and go over what I did and did not like about my hair. Yesterday I had balayage done and took at least 4 inches off my hair. It came out gorgeous! I love that Kelly does not rush the process and really listens to what her clients want. So glad I found a new salon.

I was initially hesitant after reading reviews and experiencing a delay on their end in scheduling…read moreme. However, they seem to have changed their tune for Groupon sales and I was booked for last week. Upon entering, I was greeted by the man at the front desk (possibly the owner) and taken to a nice room in the back (which looked like someone's living room) to fill out forms. As soon as I was finished, my masseuse (Nikki) was ready to begin. I have had massages my whole life, at student clinics, Hand & Stone chains, and by individual longtime professionals. Nikki did not spend a lot of time on consultation, but she did ask about the lower back pain I had indicated on the forms and was very friendly in general. Most importantly, she was among the better masseuses I have ever had. Her pressure was firm, which I love, and her technique was excellent! She also put a hot towel over my eyes when I was on my back, which added to my relaxation. Next I was given a robe and cover-up and sent across the hall for the facial. I believe her name was Debbie and she was super nice. I have never had a facial before, and when I told her, she was happy to explain the materials she was using on me. At one point she worked on my blackheads which was painful but definitely effective. She must have used five or six different treatments on me, including a sulfur treatment for acne, and she knew her stuff for sure. The hand paraffin treatment was also interesting and left my hands feelings very soft. Afterwards, I was asked to pay $7 for sales tax which seemed reasonable, I'm not really sure if this is the industry standard though. The front desk man also offered me the same deal again, good for one year, but of course charged through the spa and not through Groupon! Unfortunately I was not able to pay in advance so I declined, but I thought this was a smart business move just the same. Although I am from the area, I am currently living out of state so I cannot say if I will be back soon or not. However, I definitely recommend this place since their massages are cheaper than most, and Nikki was excellent. Also, if you have a groupon, don't be afraid to call it in! I'm glad this place seems to have gotten their act together.

I absolutely loved the place- the atmosphere was nice, the staff friendly, and my massage therapist, Nikki, was amazing. They honored the Groupon and all I had to cover was tax (in Groupon agreement) and the tax was $3. I loved it so much I scheduled my next one which they gave me the Groupon price again! I arrived a tad early so I could fill out the initial form and was seen on time. I had purchased the Swedish Massage thru Groupon and Nikki did an amazing job, applying a tad more pressure based on my needs. She was quiet too. Perfect relaxation to me. The rooms were clean, smelled great, and the lighting was serene. I'm looking forward to going back and have recommended this place to my friends. I've been to many massage spas and this is in my top three.
