There are a ton of spas in Bergen County, but none that I would give five stars to other than…read moreSerene. Melissa is wonderful, and the entire experience at Serene is absolutely perfect, starting from the moment you walk in the door. Serene is an organic spa, which is NOT easy to find in Bergen County, although spas are a dime a dozen. Knowing that natural products are going to be put on your body was a huge selling point for me, and I could not be happier with my experiences at Serene. Entering Serene is like entering a really chic boho type boutique. There are items for sale ranging from skincare products, to bags, clothing and jewelry, most (if not all) made by women around the US, which I love. It truly is a peaceful way to begin the spa experience - or find a unique gift to pick up for someone. I've now gone twice for a facial, and both times have not booked a specific type of facial, I've asked Melissa for whatever she thinks will work best for my skin. She delivers beyond anything I could choose off the menu and is so knowledgeable about exactly what your skin needs to look the best it possibly can. Melissa explains what she's putting on your face at each step of the process, what the product itself is made of, and what it will help with in regards to your skin. Other than that, this is not a spa experience where you have someone who is constantly talking to you - Melissa works her magic and allows you to lay back and completely and totally relax. She is incredibly diligent with the extraction part of the facial as well, and even after my first facial with her, I noticed a huge difference in my skin that has now stuck over the months (it's even better following a second session, and I truly believe will just continue to improve). My facials have consisted of fruit peels (I believe a berry peel and then a grape peel at my most recent session), which smell delicious and WORK, though without the redness of a chemical peel that lasts for days following. The peels I have gotten are $85/session, and worth every single penny. There are other more basic facials as well that are a bit lower in price. Another thing I love about Serene is that there is no pushing of products on you - I always ask for recommendations on what I can buy to continue working on skin health, and Melissa is happy to make recommendations, but she also gives samples versus encouraging you to buy a full-sized product right off the bat. I did buy a softening chocolate mask that smells delicious (literally like chocolate) and works wonders ($20, and I've had it for 3 months at this point, with a ton stil left!). I will continue to frequent Serene because the experience is so peaceful, Melissa is so wonderful and personable, and I leave with a noticeable difference in my skin. Can't wait for my next session!

I visited Endurance Permanent Makeup to have my eyeliner tattooed and unfortunately, I am extremely disappointed with the results. I brought clear reference photos of what I wanted, yet the final result was far from what I expected. The lines were uneven, not straight, and didn't match on either side -- something you absolutely don't want when it comes to your face. Liz, the technician and owner, spent a lot of time talking about herself and her family, which was distracting and unprofessional during a service that requires precision and attention to detail. It became very clear that despite her claims of being an expert, her work did not reflect that level of skill. This experience was frustrating and disheartening. I would strongly advise anyone considering permanent makeup or any other service Liz provides, to look elsewhere. Don't make the same mistake I did. Her work is horrible. Worst experience of my life!

Sat there until 10:30 when I finally had the nerve to knock. Owner comes out and says I will have to wait while she finishes up with another client. Owner/esthetician then tells me how Groupon isn't worth her time, and she was "doing me a favor" by squeezing me in, and that the microdermabrasion and facial that I paid for would only be for 30 minutes. Why sell your services to Groupon and then treat your Groupon customers like second class citizens!? If the service was good, she would have earned a repeat customer. No need to take off your shirt, she says. What!? She had no intention of even touching my neck or shoulders, as is done in standard facials! Said it would be super fast and shirt won't get wet. Esthetician kept encouraging me to leave and get my money back from Groupon! Then refused the service. I have had many facials and massages in my lifetime, but I have never dealt with someone more rude and unprofessional in this line of work, ever! No regard for my time spent driving there and waiting---for nothing. Do yourself a favor-don't waste your time and money with this unprofessional, uncaring place!! Zero stars if I could--thumbs down!

The other day I decided to log into Groupon to see what deals were out there and I stumbled upon an…read moreadd for The spa at Westwood for an hour long Swedish massage and facial for $49. I was a little skeptical at first when I saw how cheap it was but let me tell you this was one of the best massages and facials I've ever had. The place is literally a hidden gem and is a little hard to find but well worth it. When you first walk in you hear the calming sounds of spa music that puts you at ease. There are two rooms for massages and a little office where you fill out your information. When you get into the room you disrobe and she will come in the room when you are ready. The room is very dim and very relaxing Sandra the masseuse was so nice I felt like I had known her 20 years when we were done. She starts out by doing the facial where she uses nothing but the best products (Dermalogica). Usually after I get a facial my face is all red and irritated from extractions but she was very gentle and I had NOT ONE MARK on my face which I found amazing. Afterwards my skin felt clean fresh and flawless. After she begins the facial she starts by massaging your arms legs and feet with a gentle oil/lotion. It felt amazing. Then she asks you to flip over and she starts working on your back and arms, legs and feet again. I really liked that she asked me where I wanted her to focus on. She ends the massage with hot stones that are mind blowing ( i need to get me some of those ). She then lets you know the massage is over she leaves the room you get dressed and she greets you with a bottle of water. I have to say this was the most enjoyable experience I've had with a massage and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a great Swedish massage and facial along with a great deal.
