On Saturday January 9th 2021 I was enjoying a deep conditioning treatment and haircut by stylist Toni Poole at Simple Wellness. Toni is an amazing stylist and I have been with her for close to 10 years if not more. The massage therapist for Simple Wellness named Ellaina Johnson, was offering free hand massage samples to clients and I accepted it for my left hand because I had injured my right hand doing a work out a few weeks ago. The salon owner Angela Hardy mentioned that the hand massage may help my injured right hand. I explained to Ellaina Johnson the sore areas of my hand and how I injured it and we agreed that we would proceed cautiously and she even gave me a safe word to use if I needed her to stop or change what she was doing. The hand massage caused me to relax to a level that I had not imagined possible from a hand massage and it helped my right hand feel better by reducing the pain and increasing the range of motion. I enjoyed the hand massage so much that same day I ended up getting a two-hour massage that included hot stones and a piriformis release. The massage was incredible! Words cannot begin to describe how relaxed I felt as well as how much better my lower back and tight piriformis felt. She encouraged me to go home and take a hot soak. My Epsom salt bath intensified the benefits and euphoric feelings of the massage and piriformis release that Ellaina did. I look forward to enjoying the works of Ellaina Johnson on a monthly basis and as often as needed since I work out on a regular and I'm trying to age gracefully being healthier and stronger each day than I was the day before. read more

This was my first time here, so I didn't know what to expect. All I knew was I wanted a place where I could get a massage, mani/pedi, and cornrows. I got so much more than that though. Not only was the energy, vibes, and atmosphere amazing, it was so healing and nurturing to my soul. It felt like something out of a movie! I laughed so hard I cried. I almost cried from being so pampered (I mean a shoulder massage while your under the dryer)?! Yet, there was time for deep reflection in community and by myself, and just pure relaxation. I know this sounds more like a therapy review, because it was so therapeutic. On top of all that, my schedule was accommodated (on somewhat short notice), they worked with my budget, I had other accommodations that they catered to; and I walked out looking good and most importantly feeling whole. Even my family noticed the difference and not just the physical changes! I spent the whole day there and I would totally do it again! read more

My first trip to Baltimore started with a great facial and mani/pedi at Simple Wellness. I needed to fill the better part of my first day waiting for the rest of my party to arrive. I did a little research online and stumbled upon this salon about a week before my trip. The staff bent over backwards to make sure they could accommodate my schedule. Natalie arrived at the salon 45 minutes before they opened just in case I arrived early which was amazing because when I arrived at the salon 35 minutes early I didn't have to stand outside (it was 0 degrees!!). They even changed the mani/pedi appointment at the last minute to after lunch so I could meet up with a high school friend I hadn't seen in 15 years. Natalie and Zerika (sorry if I butchered that!) provided great services and offered suggestions about essential oils which I had recently added to my routine. Overall so satisfied and they will be my first stop if I'm ever back in Baltimore. Thanks!! read more

You know what you should do this weekend? Treat yourself to a massage at Simple Wellness. I've never had such a fulfilling experience at a spa. Other places are nice, and commercial-like...but my experience here was authentic, genuine and warm. When you walk in, the smells of oils and incense immediately fill you and then you're greeted warmly by everyone on the staff. They were professional, organized, and had such good vibes. I felt at ease. The massage, honeeey, let me just say - do yourself a service and get one! The room was pleasant and relaxing, the masseuse LaTosha was so kind and warm. I felt like she really enjoys what she does and takes pride in her craft. She was so calming and friendly. The massage was top notch! I fell asleep on many occasions during the treatment, so.... I would HIGHLY recommend you stop in and refer everyone you know! read more

I have been going to Simple Wellness since late February, so for about 9 months give or take, and I love it. Angela Hardy is fantastic, I usually go to her for my retightening for my sister locks. My hair is now extremely healthy and I have become more aware of what products work best for my hair. Likewise, thanks to Angela my hair is growing in not only healthier but thicker as well. Natalie Savage is the person you definitely want to go to for all your skin care needs. Over the last nine months or so she has helped me fight my adult acne, helped my skin to heal, and have an overall more even toned skin tone. I recommend them fully! read more

Professionalism...punctuality...creativity...and customized care are a few of the words that come to mind about this amazing place. I've had so many hair salon experiences throughout my life but none come close to the outstanding care & service I've found at Simple Wellness. I've never had to wait no matter what time my appointment. Everyone is so nice and welcoming. And I'm in & out of there so fast it amazes me every time! (...And let's not even talk about my hair growth). I definitely recommend this place to everyone who is looking for an amazing look and service. Toni Poole is absolutely awesome.

I loved my experience at Simple Wellness! I had a formal for graduate school this weekend and was wanting to get my hair and makeup done. When I called to schedule an appointment they were very helpful with making sure I had enough time before my event. When I arrived I was offered something to drink and a snack as well. My hair and makeup was done by Epiphany and Natalie and they did a superb job. I went in not knowing what I wanted besides an updo, and they both worked with me to create the perfect look. I received tons of compliments and my friends were all wowed. Thanks so much! I will definitely be back. read more

I thought it would be great to enjoy a foot massage while I was preparing to travel abroad so I checked out Simple wellness day spa. This place is great example of what very good customer service should look like, the staff was particularly attentive and ready to help. Check in was smooth, Great options for different services and a big welcome which are always well received. Clearly, the staff was very focused and and went well above my expectation in providing my foot massage. This is now my place where I will go for all my spa services. Thanks to Angela and the team for the awesome treatment I received. read more

My friend had recommended this salon to me. I am glad that I trusted her judgment. I went today to get starter locs done. I have to say that I am beyond pleased. Ms. Toni was professional and welcoming. She not only did she provide high quality service, but I felt that she was treating my hair with care. I love how my hair turned out. Ms. Angela has created an excellent establishment. I have been looking for a salon of this caliber for a long time. I feel confident that my hair is in good hands. I look forward to continuing my hair journey with Ms. Toni and Simple Wellness. read more

It has been a minute since I was last here. But, yet again, walked in to find the place on the level: clean, welcoming, and an uplifting atmosphere. You only have to look at Toni's hair to know you're dealing with a hair artist: listened to what I wanted, shaped me up sweet and freshly lined (even kept it natural looking - no hard angles and was able to work wonders with these edges!) The ladies in the shop kept it positive and much laughter was had. I said it before, "Simple Wellness is an oasis for natural hair-loving community!" Keep doing what you do! read more

My wonderful eight-year old daughter has beautiful hair that I (as her father) can do little with other than to wash/condition it. Thankfully Latosha Smith, a stylist at Simple Wellness Hair & Day Spa, knew just how and what to do and helped to make my daughter feel special throughout the experience. My daughter loves her new braids and I love that she does, too. We'll definitely be back as it was worth the rainy drive from Wash., DC to Baltimore. Keep doing what ya'll are doing Simple Wellness, cause this father loves it! read more

Angela was really a God send for me. My salon was lacking services that we really wanted to provide. I wasn't able to find anyone in my area to teach us the methods. Not only did Angela offer to teach my staff and I, she did so with the utmost integrity and professionalism. I felt as if she really wanted us to succeed. She even goes above and beyond to stay connected with us as a mentor by answering questions that may arise with clients. She's an awesome person and instructor! read more

Angela was very knowledgeable and caring about my hair and life situation. She was very patient with me even though I switched up the appointment dates several times. I learned aspects of self-love as it relates to my hair and wellness. I tried her honey and milk pomade and it's seems to be doing the trick. I'd like to see her again for follow-up hair coaching. She keeps it real! read more

I have had alot of massages in my life..but this by far was the best massage that I've ever had! Tasha worked her magic on my back and shoulders that had been giving me trouble for weeks! I feel like a whole new person! I was visiting the area from Delaware but will definitely make the trip back just to go and get another massage from Tasha. read more

I can say emphatically that this lovely little quaint spot is filled with love ,wonderful people and the type of service you could only dream of.... The day spa services are delivered with such TLC it almost puts you in a trance.... They never overbook and you are a priority! Job well done...You have a forever customer always and forever... read more

My experience at Simple Wellness was AWESOME! I called two weeks prior as a new client and they were able to honor my date and time. I had the pleasure of having Angela, the owner, retighten my Sisterlocs and I was VERY pleased. Her energy is LOVE and my hair is BOMB. My hair has never felt better- she definitely has a new client. read more

Absolutely the best massage I ever experienced! Every muscle in my body is relaxed and I feel soooo good. Christina, left me speechless! A massage from Simply Wellness Day Spa is definitely a must for me on a regular basis. Getting my nails, hair, and facial consultation afterwards was just the icing on the cake. read more

I won a 60 minute massage from work during a "Take the Stairs Challenge". Latosha Smith was AMAZING! She was so kind and made me feel right at home. I didn't have any problem areas to address, but just wanted to relax. Lotosha exceeded my expectations as I was snoring on the table! I will definitely be back! read more
