I booked her a facial treatment for breakout clearing at iBeauty center Fremont , and we even got her eyelashes lift(perm) while we were there. She told me today is the best day of her life, and that the pimples she'd been feeling insecure about for the last 2 or 3 months finally said bye-bye!

Wow, I just realized that it's been almost 10 years to the day since my first review!…read more I can honestly say this is the only beauty center I have returned to consistently. Just went last week - Christine is still amazing (especially with the way she gently does extractions, which is no easy feat), the space is still gorgeous and despite rising prices, theirs is still extremely reasonable (highly recommend their offered combination services). What I really appreciate is that the owner ensures the ladies performing the services (they have four working there now - so proud of them!) have access to an ever-evolving line of products, machinery and techniques. Bit of a background on me: I am a woman of color with oily skin and pores on the larger side. Christine's expert services help me keep this at bay, especially what I began going for - microdermabrasion. Cannot recommend their version enough - the new machine they have is both thorough and soothing. Bonus: plenty of parking! The plaza they are in is thoughtfully designed, despite there being quite a few businesses. Second bonus: they are around the corner from the World Gourmet Buffet and a couple of tea shops, so if you are hungry or want to grab boba/Bubble Tea, you can do both!

This was me and my mom's first time trying a facial treatment before and it was fantastic! Kristy,…read moreLuna, and Jessie were extremely welcoming and accommodating during our Hydro Facial treatments and we were both seen at the same time which was very convenient. My mom chose to do the Hydro Facial + Collagen Boost treatment while I chose the Hydro Facial + Oxygen Infusion treatment as suggested by Kristy. Kristy started off my treatment with cleansing, exfoliation, and extraction. She informed me about different products she would be using on my skin beforehand to be aware of any sensations that may come up which was a nice heads up! Kristy also gave wonderful and straightforward advice to maintain a good, healthy skincare routine. She provided informative advice with specific products to use to help improve the skin. Luna continued on with the Oxygen Infusion treatment, which had a very cooling effect on the skin and ended the treatment with a relaxing shoulder, neck, and head massage. Once my mom and I had our facials completed, we both agreed that our skin felt much more lighter, radiant, and glowy! We are very satisfied with the results from our facials and will be coming back again for our next session next month! Thank you to Kristy, Luna, and Jessie again for the amazing work.

I had a facial Monday morning with Jessie and enjoyed it! You really can't beat the price of $99…read morefor an hour long HydraFacial and cleaning. The spa itself was very clean and modern. The $99 special came with cleaning, extraction, head/shoulder/neck massage, and more. The hour went by fast and wished it lasted longer. My specialist recommended I upgrade to something that has more moisturizer techniques since my face was a little dry, for $139. I passed and would probably come back next time to try it. Jessie made sure I didn't feel pain and checked in on me throughout the process to make sure I was okay. My face felt so smooth and clean afterwards. My favorite part was the cleaning of the dead skin with the suction. It helped my face feel smooth. Jessie recommended I put on more M3 and B5 serum on my face, which she did during the session. Now I'll be doing research onto products that would help my face! My only feedback is have a wedge pillow to put under the legs. My back started hurting after awhile.

Her down-to-earth nature and calm demeanor helped put me to ease as we discussed options from microneedling and more. Ultimately, I pulled the trigger on injectables and had my first Dysport experience with her and I am so glad I did! Not only did she offer numbing cream and a facial vibrator for my nervousness, she was gentle and answered my endless questions. She didn't feel pushy or anything and was genuinely helping me make an informed decision which made me feel even more comfortable. I've already recommended her to another friend!

She started by discussing my skin history and concerns as well as what I want to achieve with my skin. The facial itself was very pleasant and I even fell asleep! Usually after I get extractions my skin gets very swollen but I was very surprised to see no swelling on my skin after the treatment. My skin was also not irritated at all after the treatment. The place itself is extremely clean and I enjoyed talking to Terilyn, she is very kind and professional! Again, I look forward to my next appointment and seeing the progress in my skin!

I was surprised to see the improvements I have from just one session -- pores clean and less noticeable, redness is gone, and my stress/face mask pimples are dying!! I've had that thing on my face for weeks despite my own home care attempt with scrubs and retinol. I also took the leap with getting a Brazilian. My go-to for the past 15 years closed during pandemic so I've been hesitant to go to anyone else. Terilyn made me feel so comfortable and unashamed of my body. Scheduled my follow-up session before I left the studio. I'm so ready for this good skin, and for feeling good about myself again. Book with Total Bloom noooooow!

UPDATE: Ronald Aleteanu, one of the owners, reached out to me via comment on here. He said "reach…read moreout directly so it can be resolved at the level it should have been", which is odd, because he was the one that initially sent me the business' refund policy when I asked for a refund and rejected my refund in the first place. It just feels like he is wanting to publicly look like he is addressing the situation properly. I did end up reaching out again today, per his request, and Elena Aleteanu, the other owner, has not changed her stance. She is telling me that they can't do anything on their end and that I need to reach out to Square. Square is telling me that they can't do anything on their end and that the business needs to initiate the refund. So, I reached out to Ronald again directly, and he did not respond. In addition, he got my Google review deleted and is trying to get this one deleted as well, but thankfully Yelp is a lot better about keeping honest reviews. I also forgot to note that the service was booked for two hours total, as a side by side massage. Elena tried to SCAM my sister and her partner by offering each a 1 hour service, one at a time (because of being understaffed), even though it is a two hour service. I paid $400 for the massages, so she's was trying to tell my sister that each service (which included a full massage and facial) of $200 was for one hour only, which is a lie. ORIGINAL POST: AVOID California Skin Care & Day Spa in Newark I prepaid for a service (it was a gift), received a confirmation reminder the day before, and made arrangements for my sister and her partner who are visiting from out of town. I even paid for an Uber to get them there. They arrived on time and the place was closed. No staff, no setup, nothing. They waited about 40 minutes, while I tried calling and messaging every available number. Eventually Ronald Aleteanu, one of the owners, responded on WhatsApp , but that did not change the situation and the service still was not provided. Between the Uber and waiting, this ended up wasting about 2 hours of their time (& money for the Uber), and they left with nothing. After all of that, Elena Aleteanu (who eventually came) claimed she had called and left a message (and at one point claimed that she talked to someone - a complete lie). I never received any call or voicemail, and I confirmed that the number I entered was correct. Their explanation just does not add up, especially since they had no problem sending a reminder the day before. What is most frustrating is that they still refused to issue a refund for a service they never provided. Instead, they only offered store credit, which is completely unreasonable. I would strongly recommend avoiding this place. I also posted this on NextDoor and numerous people replied noting that the same thing happened to them. So this is not an isolated incident. I've posted those screenshots here.
