Before pic with Renee!
M S.

I had a pandemic panic and colored my hair at home too dark, then I bleached it... and then it MELTED the ends of my hair!!! What can I say? It's embarrassing and frustrating, but Renee was a life saver today!!! She was sweet about it and up front with the results I may or may not get because of what I did. I'm so grateful for her skills and I'll definitely be back!

Worst experience ever

My horrible experience at Von Kekel. If you do not have blonde hair please do not get your hair done in this beauty salon. After delivering a baby, I've been in postpartum depression and my husband wanted to cheer me up. So, he made an appointment at Von Kekel. He says "go there and do your hair, I want you to look beautiful for our anniversary". We didn't know it'd been the worst experience in my life. No one goes to a salon to get their hair messed up. I wanted a silver smoke ombre. The stylist made me balayage even though I strongly repeated her more than three times that I wanted an Ombre, not Balayage. She said it is the same style. Jill bleached my hair for 20 minutes and then she dye my hair for 5 minutes. When I left the place I had some hair with color and other parts orange, yellow. This is the first time I go to a salon and I leave the place in an hour and 30 minutes. In my experience, for a Balayage the stylist took between 4-6hrs. As you can see in the first photo on the left is me at 10 hours before I got my hair done at Von Kekel and the next 3 photos are 30 minutes after leaving Von Kekel. I can't believe my hair looked better before having a service in Von Kekel. This was a total disaster. I've been crying and in depression. Instead of being a happy customer, I ended up in the hospital for depression when I saw that my hair is orange with yellow and not gray as I wanted. The Von Kekel return and exchange policies say that they will redo work if the client is not 100% satisfied with the service but when I asked for a redo they told me that this policy did not apply to me, I don't even know what they meant by that. Even when I told them that I want them to fix my hair to look like all the colors blended and not partially dye or bleach, they told me that for that I would have to pay more money. They made me feel like I have no money to pay for my service. They made me feel bad. Now I feel worst than before and I don't know what to do with my life. it's an immense sadness to see how they treat you. I was offended on the phone by the receptionist. So much so that I'm on medication. I share this story with you. I hope Shawn Von Kekel see this and make his team own his policies and treat other ppl better.

I am always so tense, my muscles are almost always in knots, and I've recently started a fairly strenuous workout regime, so I've been coming here for deep tissue massages. They have done wonders for me. I leave feeling like a new person! Also, the spa is gorgeous and the employees are super friendly. There are lots of amenities for you to use while you wait for your time slot, or after you are done. I've genuinely enjoyed my experiences here. So why 4/5? Well, as others have mentioned it is damn near impossible to make a reservation unless you are there in person; calling in a reservation takes forever. Also, you can only get a reservation Monday-Thursday if you are not staying at the hotel. Again, as others mentioned, the online booking tool is ridiculously inefficient. You have to click on each day to find an opening. Who has time for that? That said, they do open up to non-guests the day of IF the hotel guests don't fill all the slots. But how do you even plan ahead for that? If they upgrade the booking tool and perhaps open up a few slots for non - hotel guests on weekends (before the weekend of), this would easily be 5 stars.

When an opportunity arose, I was excited to experience it because my birthday was coming up. I was greeted with warm smiles and professionalism upon arrival. Yuri took me to the back and provided me with a Clean & Natural Facial and a Scalp Massage. As she was preparing me for my facial, she asked questions and engaged in conversation to find out a little bit more about me so that she could adequately provide this service. She was very pleasant and had great positive energy. Yuri was gentle yet firm in her delivery of the facial. Her scalp massage was very soothing. My entire experience lasted approximately 50 minutes. At the end of my visit, my face felt refreshed and hydrated. There was also a glow to my face when I looked in the mirror. Yuri advised me on my routine facial care before escorting me back to the front desk for check out. I was pleased with my service and handed her a 20% tip to show my gratitude. This experience has enlightened me. I would definitely consider getting facials moving forward.

So I set out in search of an affordable place that was comfortable & relaxing but also seemed down to earth. I took a shot and booked an appointment with Dawn and couldn't be happier with the results! Let me start off my saying, I love how easy scheduling my appointment was. I can be antisocial at times so I appreciate being able to schedule stuff online. As for the appointment, it was great! Everything you'd expect it to be. Dawn was awesome. She made me feel super comfortable & informed. I sometimes struggle to relax during a massage, wondering "should I talk? Should I not? Am I being akward?" But she made me feel so at ease and I really loved talking to her! Great massage, good conversation, affordable price. I will definetly be back!

There is a little fountain, relaxing music and aromatic oils in the air as you enter. Ashley is a one-woman show and does the checking-in, paperwork , and massages. I had a wonderful 90-minute massage and she offers great introductory or monthly massage package specials. I actually found out about Awen on Groupon and am really happy I was able to get such a great massage at a wonderful price. Ashley is very friendly and personable and was also very responsive to my initial email inquiries. Thank you for a great treatment!
