    She keeps trying to contact me after I blocked her on text and told her to stop. This is weird :/ now she's texting me on YELP
    Crystal T.

    Horrible experience & waste of money! Totally regret it. I would give Zero Stars if I could. Customer service needs significant improvement and the salon room needs to be properly cleaned please. I've been to various spas and salons and this was by far the dirtiest and least professional. Definitely not someone I would recommend to my friends, the public, or even someone I didn't like. UPDATE: the owner harassed me via text and told me that my honest review on yelp of her salon is a form of bullying. It's called freedom of speech. Clean up your salon and work on customer service . I also had to block her to stop texting me. This is really weird and not professional. ----Now I'm being contacted on Yelp after blocking her on text---- next update will most likely be me having to file a harassment report ANNOUNCEMENT - I have taken legal action and filed a Police report for harassment. I'm a married young mother of 3 young children who is very easy going ands gets along well with almost everyone. I've gone to many business , met many people, but have never had such a horrific experience with an individual. Bullying and harassing me via text and on various apps is unacceptable- especially at this lady's age. She should be focusing on self improvement, business, or grandkids if she has any . I refused to be attacked or bullied and will always stand up for myself and will teach the same to my children. - Jan 2019 - So basically the owner waited a month to explain that her bad energy and horrible costumer service was due to "not clicking" with me and "having a bad feeling". Not to mention sprinkling in a few non truths... :/ ....(but she knows that) No wonder I felt uneasy when I came into the salon! Doesn't sound like professional behavior for a business owner to randomly target a new client and decide they don't like them. Then to use that as an excuse to create an uncomfortable atmosphere and treat the client in a rude and non accommodating manner is just strange. Additionally, the peach analogy doesn't apply here- I didn't write this review due to not liking the owner personally. I wrote this honest review because of my very unsatisfactory experience in this salon as well as her lackluster customer service skills and unacceptable harassment. I came into this salon with an open mind, peaceful energy, and the trust that I put into this owner. I never expected I would have to call the Police to have them stop harassing me... It's not my goal to try to hurt a business- only speak my truth and offer advice: I sincerely wish things had went better ... & I hope no one else experiences what I did and that the owner is able to grow to become more professional, compassionate, and understanding towards her future new clients as well as let go of any underlying prejudices she may have had towards me that caused her to act in such a manner. I wish her well- now let's move on to better things! Thanks Happy 2019 & Goodluck !

    This was such a treat!!!…read more I walked into this charming location in the heart of Vancouver, Washington, and immediately felt a sense of calm. The space itself is beautifully designed, with a stunning structure that gives it a welcoming and quaint atmosphere. I was introduced to Sysko, my aesthetician for the evening, and from the moment we began, I felt completely at ease. Her calm demeanor and respectful approach made the entire experience truly exceptional. As a first-timer receiving facial treatments, I was nervous, but Sysko's professionalism and care helped me feel comfortable and confident. She provided the best service I could have hoped for, and I couldn't have asked for a better person to work with. Right after this appointment, I booked another service.

    I'm so sad to say I left the salon in tears and couldn't even look at my reflection because I'm so…read moreupset. I was super nervous and told the hairstylist that I have a lot of anxiety around getting my hair done because last time I went, the hairstylist cut it way too short. I was explicit that I wanted my hair to stay long and just needed to trim the dry ends and maybe add some layers. Here's the sample photo I showed her, and this is what she gave me. I told her pretty much right away that it was too short, but it was too late at that point and it needed to be evened out. I get married in two months and have to completely change the hairstyle I envisioned for my wedding day now. Hairstylist told me multiple times that "hair grows back" which is the last thing you want to hear from your hairdresser. She gave me zero layers, when I reminded her I wanted layers she said she'd text me and let me come back another time for free to add them in but she never texted me. I'm not dropping her name because she's young and starting her career, but I am absolutely devastated by this. My hair was so special to me and with my wedding coming up so soon this is truly a nightmare. I was charged the full amount for the haircut even though she knew I wasn't happy.

    Natural Nails in Salmon Creek (Vancouver, WA) is my go-to for manicures and pedicures…read more I've been a customer since it first opened. Over the past 15+ years, it has had different owners. Tai has been the owner for the past several years. All of the nail technicians are excellent, including Tai, Tina, Nikki, Ann, Lin, Ryan, and Vy. The quality of the manicures and pedicures is high. I go once a month to have a deluxe manicure and a deluxe pedicure. Tina is my nail technician. I pay more for gel, because it lasts all month long. What really impressed me most was their safety protocols during COVID. Even before then, and now, it is a clean place with sterilized nail tools. There is no nail salon odor, as is typical in other salons. For the past 15+ years, I've had no issues with my nails. In fact, I get compliments frequently. I choose a pink-nude color for my nails, because it looks more natural and professional. I keep my nails short, because I use the computer a lot with my job. I also have a 2 year old granddaughter, so I don't want to accidentally scratch her with longer nails. I use a darker taupe color for my toe nails. Matches everything. My daughters love receiving gift certificates from Natural Nails for birthday gifts. If you love having soft and beautiful hands and feet, visit Natural Nails and they will pamper you. Their prices are reasonable for what you get. I love their massage chairs, when I get pedicures. Tina always asks me what I would like to drink. I prefer water. I've seen others having mimosas. My daughters used to go to other nail salons, until they came with me to Natural Nails. Now all of us go to Natural Nails. My eldest daughter has had her nails done by Ryan and Ann. She only goes once every few months because she's married, works, and has three young children. My youngest daughter goes every other month. She commutes for work in Oregon, and works the night shift, so her schedule keeps her really busy. Her nail technician is Nikki. I'm married and a grandma of 3. I'm an empty nester. I work too. But my office is local. So I'm able to go monthly. Natural Nails is addicting! In a good way.

    Had been going here for 2 years and enjoyed the experience and service. Not sure if management…read morechanged but my last visit is now my last visit. This is the first time there was a gentleman there seeming to be in charge - answering phones, checking people in and out. He asked me what service I wanted and I said Classic pedicure with gel polish (same as I always get) which is $50 per their price list. They do also offer a Deluxe pedicure with gel for $85. He proceeded to perform my pedicure and I did notice he did some things different that I experienced in the past. I assumed they made a few changes to how they do things. However, when I went to pay he told me $69 instead of the normal $50. I realized he was charging me for services I didn't ask for (oil mask and hot stone massage + who knows what else) that he choose to perform on his own. At this point I didn't argue because I don't like to create a scene and it is pointless to argue with someone this appalling and I will never go back. While I was receiving my service I heard another client arguing with him at checkout but thought nothing of it but now suspect maybe the same was done to her. By doing this you get more $ from customers for that day but if you are now wondering why they don't return this is it. Sad because the technicians themselves are nice and do good work. Not their fault at all. I rated 2 stars because the quality of the work is 5 stars however the dishonesty is negative stars and a total deal breaker.
