Skin Care near Orinda

“Maria is amazing and so sweet and funny! Loved how informative she was! I can get a bit claustrophobic with the light mask as well as get a little anxious each time I try something new and she was very understanding and comforting. My skin is glowing after getting the cold sculpting ! I even bought an amazing package deal that I could use every two weeks up to my wedding this August. I am 33 and have developed 11 lines on my forward and my neck is unfortunately starting to be crepey. I don't do Botox, yet haha, but I can tell this really plumped up and firmed my skin and can't wait to get to my other appointments! Just read some of the recent reviews and want to say that the staff did consistently (2-3 times?) bring up the special and also informed me about the payment plan (up to 12 month plan is free of interest!!). I think this can come across as pushy if someone has an inner voice telling them they're obligated but I saw it moreso as the team being informative and making sure I understood the deal. This is a place for self care and obviously the more you do these treatments the better the results. I will say I only had today to make a decision of the package of 5 treatments which naturally puts you on the spot and this might not be for everyone. I think it's a good deal and I have an important date coming up so it made sense for me and I am glad they mentioned it twice. If the shoe doesn't fit for you just pass on it. This place does really reasonable promotions otherwise I wouldn't necessarily be able to afford coming here. Also! A facial and these treatments can only do so much if you're not doing other preventative work. These people are nice but also have a job to do and they means making sure you understand their promotion! I am grateful for the promotions!!!

Also normally you would see my 11’s but this time of day AND I haven’t slept with my “frownies” tape for two nights in a row so idk this is looking good to me!“

“For over a decade, Ally has been my absolute go-to esthetician. I've followed her from San Francisco to Orinda, and even while living in New York for five years, I made sure to book an appointment with her every time I flew home. Her treatments are truly exceptional, far beyond a typical facial. Ally doesn't just apply products; she meticulously analyzes and transforms your skin. She's incredibly knowledgeable and the most trusted skincare expert I know. If you're lucky enough to snag an appointment with Ally, do it! You won't find a better esthetician.“

“Great Doctor. Very thorough, informative and honest. Treat you like family. You don't feel like a number or just another patient he makes you feel like he truly cares and is very knowledgeable. Glad I found him.“

“The two guys at the front desk (I think Antonio and Brian) were very professional and friendly. My therapist, Kennadi, was also great. All the little things were done perfectly - pressure, music, checking in, etc. I would highly recommend this location and working with Kennadi.“

“I have been wanting to make an appointment with Lexie forever and I finally made it in to see her. She did not disappoint! My skin looks and feels healthy , it looks like glass . She’s a magician! I already scheduled another appointment. If you want your skin to glow go see Lexie!!!“

“Frozan is kind, patient and professional! I truly enjoy my facial experiences and have seen the positive impact on my skin.“

“I love my experiences with SkinSpirit. Everyone is so kind and friendly. I usually go to Montclair, but Morgan wasn't available. Everyone assured me Tarikak is good. They lied, she is great. She is not only friendly but so knowledgeable. I don't trust just anyone with my face. Lol, thanks to all the staff. SkinSpirit is amazing. Remember, trust the process. (Pic coming soon)“

“This was my first time getting a facial (ever!) and it was truly fantastic! The place has a really lovely, relaxing vibe and Rosiane was so friendly and knowledgeable. She immediately identified some issues I've been struggling with for a long time, made some recommendations that left my face GLOWING!! Our session was really relaxing and I've never felt as good about my skin as I did when she was done. I would 100% recommend getting anything done by her and am definitely going back for more (:“

“Had a wonderful experience overall. I had an appointment with Alissa, who is super friendly, professional, and explained each step of the process. She answered all my questions and I felt comfortable with her. I will definitely be making regular appointments with her. The facilities are also very clean and the staff are all friendly.“

“Marina is amazing. I’m very sensitive and she’s efficient, gentle and I always get great results.“

“The customer service I received from Rhianna when booking my appointment was top notch! I enjoyed the atmosphere of the spa and my massage with Barbara was relaxing! I would not classify the massage as deep tissue as requested, it was more of a Swedish massage. Enjoyable nonetheless! I would definitely come back to try the other services and offerings from the estheticians, Ayurvedic specialists and masseuses. I also would be interested to try the acupuncture! Parking on the street nearby was easy, it was 2 hour parking only and I got to my car right before the 2 mark and was already given a ticket which was a bummer but had nothing to do with the spa just something to be aware of!“

“Elsa was amazing!! Honestly the only one I choose to see. Perfect results every time! I'm never disappointed with my appointments with her.“

“I needed a new esthetician after mine left the area. I found Pari and I'm so glad I did. The salon is conveniently located in PH and there is ample parking. She shares a space with a lash artist, but each have their own room and there are no distractions or disruptions. They have a nice restroom for customers too. Her room is large and cozy. The ambience is spa like and relaxing. Pari has a larg collection of Eminence Products, which are organic and amazing, though she doesn't pressure you to buy them. I started using the product and love it.
Her prices are extremely reasonable and the quality of product she uses is top notch. Pari is professional, kind, knowledgeable and reliable. I have never felt judged by her. She always gives me amazing facials and my skin looks great when i walk out. I've had experiences at expensive salons where they damaged my skin; i have never had that issue with Pari. I trust her to do whatever she thinks is best for my skin. I adore Pari for many reasons. She has it all. If it's important for you to find a talented esthetician you can trust with your skin, get amazing results, affordable and reliable look no further. Trust me, book with Pari you won't be disappointed.“

“I have had an extremely large, tight, and painful tense muscle in my lower back for years. Nothing including past massages helped. Cody has somehow found a way to coach this muscle into relaxing. Over time it has become less and less painful especially right after he has worked on it. Best place for treatments.“

“My experience with Oran was better than I could've ever imagined. Not only was the reiki work enlightening and aligning, but my facial massage really put me in a place where I was relaxed and able to let energy flow. He spent so much time imparting wisdom and knowledge onto me and truly made me feel empowered. I walked out of our session feeling more aligned than I ever have before!“

“Shiva is an artist. I don't normally leave reviews, but she does work with passion. It's art. She takes her time to evaluate you. If you're looking for someone to treat your face, I recommend Shiva.“

“Sarah Goodheart is the one to see! She's been doing my Botox for a few months and I finally bit the bullet on cheek/under eye filler. I'm so happy I did! She is such an artist, she is so gentle and trustworthy. I had zero bruising after my filler apt and the results are so natural. I wish I'd done it sooner but at the same time, so happy I waited to work with Sarah. She's stuck with me now as a forever client“

“I always have the most amazing wax experience with Carla. She’s knowledgeable and so easy to converse with, which makes my wax appointments flow by quickly. I’ve never liked an esthetician as much as I adore her- she’s going to be greatly missed at this location. Best wishes Carla!“

“Tkeyah is excellent. Been going to her for years and she is my preferred choice when it comes to waxing. She’s kind, quick and efficient. 10/10 would highly recommend“

“I first went to Caroline’s Salon three months postpartum, and it was such a blessing. They colored my hair and gave me the loveliest hairstyle — but what stayed with me even more was how nurtured I felt. The warm welcome, the genuine conversation, the hot tea in my hands — it was exactly what I needed. I left feeling like myself again, floating on cloud nine.

Now I’m pregnant with my second baby, and I already know I’ll be back three months after delivery. It’s my little gift to myself — and a gentle reminder to all the moms out there: take that time for you. Caroline’s Salon isn’t just a place to get your hair done, it’s a place where you’re truly cared for — inside and out.

You can feel the love and intention in every detail — and that’s 100% coming from the owners. So grateful for this space and the beautiful team behind it. ?“

“After work, I called around 5:30 today to schedule a last minute walk in mani pedi for an event the next day. The ladies immediately got me seated, with a cup of hot tea, and let me try out the different polishes I picked out for comparison. I don't typically do my nails except for special occasions so despite the last min booking...I felt so pampered with the thorough arm/hand and leg/feet massage. They even accommodated for a last minute color switch when I requested to match my toenails. Cozy, relaxing vibes, great service & attention to detail. Thank you!“

“Kayla was extremely professional. She addressed all of my questions. The service was excellent; Kayla was gentle and she consistently checked to ensure I was comfortable. The environment was clean, quiet, and soothing. I will definitely be coming back for more treatments.“

“First time getting a manicure here and I can’t tell that your nails will feel so good!!
The products they use are definitely 100% natural! I have done gel manicure before in other places and days later I had the feeling to wanting to get rid off the gel because it felt so heavy!! But coming here to Natural Nails is the best choice!! 10/10 recommended!!“

“This is the spa you need up on this side of the bay. Exceptional service from Scheduling to payment. Everyone was very professional and patient. Lana is very knowledgeable and experienced in her field. I was looking for a good place for a facial and here it is. The place is clean, welcoming and delivered what they promised.“

“Irina is amazing! Very professional and caring. My skin looks so much better after just a few sessions. Highly recommend!“

“Talent, consistency, and great results plus all the wonderful products you need to keep your beautiful hair on point“
