Given my (ahem) advanced years, you'd think I would've had at least one facial by now. Nope. I was…read morea facial virgin. But I finally decided to stop kidding myself and start taking better care of my skin. After a lot of searching and hesitation, I decided to give The Skin Source a try. I'm so glad I did! Alexandra was great! Everything from making the appointment to new client forms were done electronically, which I appreciate. She put me at ease, and explained everything involved in the facial. Her cozy space in the Aina Haina Professional Building (located in the same shopping center as Foodland, McDonalds, Pieology, etc.) was super easy to find and of course, has plenty of parking. After the treatment, my skin did have a nice glow, and I felt quite pampered. She offered a discount on a future treatment and recommended a skin care regimen, but was clear to say that there's no obligation. I'm definitely going to take her up on it. I owe it to my skin. Facial virgin no longer!

I have been trying to get a hold of you but I am not getting any replies. You are really good at what you do and a nice person and so I am hoping you will honor my facials and not leave me hanging or out of pocket. Please make contact with your clients and let us know how we are to recoup our funds or services from you. I am really dissappointed. You did a good service so I am really confused.

It sounds sketchy, but I didn't know that Rachel had started a business and wasn't just some random person that gives massages. I drove up to this beautiful house (late and lost, but Rachel was so faithful to give me directions when I called frantic, and she showed grace to my tardiness). Beautiful doesn't quite satisfy the way this place looks, and once I stepped inside. Amazing. The title, Calm Studio Spa fits it well. The exterior and interior embody a very calming atmosphere. The single room studio has a perfectly placed, massage table, a chair for facial treatments, a couch for comfort, and perfectly placed shelves with various beauty products. And the spa part, well this business offers a full variety of massages (to include prenatal!), facial treatments and waxing services. Treatments are by appointments only, and currently Rachel (the masseuse) does evening appointments. She did an amazing job. I had a crazy kink in my neck, and I told her she had quite a challenge ahead of her. She accepted it and smoothed it out with her hybrid of lomi lomi, Swedish and deep tissue massage. This new business is definitely worth checking out, and I'm looking forward to seeing her again soon!

It's a busy building in the morning, so give yourself some time to make it to the elevators and head up to the 14th floor where you walk into a serene world immediately. The sight, smell, and sound of the spa immediately draws you in. After settling in, I had the most amazing Salt Facial at Honolulu Spa & Wellness with the owner. I do not get facials regularly because I tend to leave the salon with sensitive skin that's all blotchy and red from the chemicals that were used. But getting a Salt Facial is so much different! No chemicals were used and the results were amazing. The salt used is a natural antibacterial and antimicrobial agent so my skin was not irritated one bit in the process. I learned this is one of the few places offering this service, so definitely take advantage of them having this service. The procedure started by cleansing my face and neck first. Then the Salt Facial followed with her using a wand that used all natural sea salt resurfacing to prep my skin for the next stages. I thought it was going to hurt for some reason , but it didn't at all and just felt like a deep exfoliation. I then had an aesthetic ultrasound to nourish and increase circulation of my skin, which helped whatever she used to get deeper into my skin. The next step was where I could really feel the treatment doing its job, and that was the LED light therapy! I did that for a couple of minutes and could feel my skin getting its natural glow back. The last part of my experience here was a hydrating face mask that I didn't even know I needed. The whole process felt so fast but gave such great results. My skin feels brighter and tighter, especially around my under-eye and cheeks where I felt like my skin was sagging a bit. I could just feel my skin was softer and had reduced the bumpiness in some areas that were affected by acne in the past. All in all a great experience and a facial I recommend to anyone that wants a natural approach to getting one. I am sensitive to chemicals and often left waiting for results after a couple of days, but with the Salt Facial results were immediate. Try it for yourself and thank me later that you did!

We arrived before our appointment time and filled out their forms. We each had our own room/skin care specialist. The comfortable spa table is prepped with a little steamer to get your face ready for treatment. The HydraFacial machine was explained to me. She also stated that if the process felt uncomfortable, I could alert her to adjust the pressure. The procedure helped to clean, exfoliate, and remove impurities from my skin. She then applied a serum of antioxidants, peptides, and hyaluronic acid. The final application was sunscreen. While the untrained eye, probably couldn't SEE a difference after the HydraFacial, I could certainly FEEL the difference. Clean, fresh, and super rejuvenated! As a follow up, I came in for the Scultural Face Lift with Buccal Massage. This included lymphatic drainage (behind your ears) and microcirculation of my shoulders, neck, and jaw area. If you've never had a massage inside your mouth, try it! This helps to relax jaw muscles and many TMJ patients use this. Honey, you are worth it! Whether a special occasion or just because. They have many options in their menu of services. They also sell products to compliment all your skin care needs. God blessed you with the skin you're in, this is a great way to maintain it :)

We booked two 90 minute massages with a 15 minute steam ahead of the massage. When we arrived they had us take off our shoes and gave us sandals to use, we also selected scents for the rooms and our tea preference. From there they showed us our rooms and had us change into robes before heading into the steam. While the space is too small for couples massages, we were able to go in the steam together and after we went into a room to drink our water/tea and relax ahead of the massage. Once they took us into the room the music was relaxing and they did a great job to ask where to focus and check in to make sure the pressure wasn't too much/too little. I had A LOT of tension in my back. While she was working on some problem areas I asked some questions about why it might be so tense/painful and it definitely was a mix of working out the pain to feel relief. The big takeaway was that I shouldn't go years between massages. After the massage we went back to the relaxation room and drank more water before heading out to pay. I felt so relaxed after the massage and would definitely recommend this business to others.

Super disappointed with the service I received and interaction with Mila. I had high hopes because…read morethe Yelp reviews were outstanding, but alas they were also misleading. This review is not to complain, simply to express my experience with Mila at the Face Lounge using a Groupon for a microdermabrasion treatment. Setting up the appointment was simple over the phone. When I had to cancel last minute due to work, she was understanding and flexible with rescheduling another appointment. The new location is in a residential area in Kaneohe. It's easy to miss, but gps does a fine job of getting you there. When I first met Mila she was pleasant, but seemed in a rush. Understandable as I was 5 minutes late due to not being able to find the house. I'll admit the setup in the bedroom upstairs was kind of odd...I felt weird being in a person's home. It wasn't very relaxing and the bed faced directly across a bright window that was pretty blinding as it didn't have any shades. I guess I'm just used to getting facial treatments in a spa-like environment. We started the microdermabrasion, it was my first time, she told me it would feel like sandpaper across my skin. I'd say my skin isn't that sensitive, it's more on the normal side - but wow, did it hurt in certain areas like under my eyes and cheeks...it started to burn by the third time she went over my face. Afterwards she began extractions on my face without steaming and opening my pores. That worried me. It also hurt like heck! She made a comment about how I didn't drink enough water thus dehydrating my skin and making it difficult for her because my skin "just wouldn't give". Hmm maybe it's because my pores aren't opened up?? Shame comment #1. Then she noticed bumps on my skin (milia), which I was conscious about to begin with. I have a about 5 little ones on my cheek. She said, "That's really bad, it's because of improper product usage. You're too young to have that you NEED to go to a dermatologist." Shame #2. At this point I just felt real crappy about my skin...about my face in general, which is so opposite from other experiences with previous facials I've gotten. I usually get comments about how good my skin looks! Then she put on a mask, it immediately started burning my whole face!! On fire!! She didn't believe me at first, but I was like, "This doesn't feel right is this supposed to feel like this?!" So with rough force she wiped it off with a wet rag and that HURT so badly. I was cringing with pain trying to keep quiet, not scream, and be polite. She proceeded with 2 more masks that also burned my face. Wow. Then of course ended with a shame #3 comment about how sensitive my skin was. In the end, I was rushed out because another client had arrived and I left feeling bummed out about the state of my skin with no solutions. Btw, the burning and redness on my face lasted for the next two days.

I am so grateful to Groupon for introducing me to Mila & Skinpure Beauty Bar, initially for eyebrow waxing & shaping (see my previous review) and she also specializes in providing a comprehensive line of skin care treatments. So I recently had an opportunity to experience one of Mila's ultra RELAXING clinical facial cleanses, which I found so amazing. I couldn't resist letting my fellow Yelpers know that if you're a discriminating customer seeking a skilled, caring, gentle, conscientious, knowledgeable and very friendly esthetician to do wonders on your skin & face, look no further than Mila at Skinpure Beauty Bar, where for the service I received, the distinction is virtually pain-free extractions. You would find it impossible to not drift off to a state of nirvana under the care of Mila, who in my opinion gives the most soothing neck, arm and hand massages. Mila uses only high quality European products and you'll have to experience why her facial is not typical. I realized this when the usual order of cleansing, exfoliation, steam therapy, extractions, peel, mask & hydration was slightly DIFFERENT, and folks there is a reason. I won't give away her trade secret, you'll have to experience it, or ask her yourself! I was thrilled to know she offers her many services in packages and I am so looking forward to experiencing facials regularly at Skinpure Beauty Bar. Thank you, Mila, you are the best!

But what I got was acrylic and when I questioned what she was doing she said "I make beautiful your nail for you".

The application was uneven, some parts of my nail bed wasn't even covered by the powder, the length and shape of my nails are all different. Some long, some short, some squoval, some square. And then she had the nerve to charge me double the price that was listed for the job she did. Safe to say, I will never go back to this chop shop ever again. And the shop was completely empty when I went in so there was absolutely no need for my services to have been rushed. But the empty salon should've told me everything I needed to know.
