“Irma! She was amazing! This was my first time getting a sugar wax. She talked me through everything. I already booked my next appointment.<br>Thank you! 😊”
“Great service, easy to book online, everyone was very friendly. I will definitely go back!”
“Walked in on a Sunday at noon and was taken right away. She was quick and efficient with the service and got my eyebrows to be threaded perfectly. I hadn’t gotten them done or really done anything to them in months if not a year, and she didn’t judge anything about how they looked which I often worry about. She asked permission to cut them and completed it quickly. Was happy to pay the very reasonable rate and she did not take too much off which I was concerned about as many waters make mine super thin. Will be returning”
“I’ve continued to have nothing, but amazing experiences with the staff here. I have had Mysa, Cindy, and Kim help me and their work has been excellent. Im a short nailed, barefoot preferred gal, so the deluxe pedicure is a must and they really pamper.<br><br>This last time I had a more complicated manicure request and Mysa did a fantastic job and was so kind. Picture of the result - they did a great job even when they didn’t have much nail to work with. Highly recommend!”
“Soma Sou is great- Dani, Jordan, and Crystal are the absolute best❤. I could not reccomend going to them enough, and I wouldn’t go to anybody else!!!!!❤ GO TO THEM!!!<br><br>But maybe in the fall/winter…<br><br>The reason why I’m giving Soma Sou four stars is that their AC has been out since the end of June and it’s blistering hot in there right now. There also is only one portable AC unit (as far as I can tell) in one of the rooms and it’s not enough.<br><br>When you’re getting injected and it’s SO hot, that’s really not ideal!!! Then when you’re getting what’s supposed to be a relaxing facial (and would totally be otherwise) but it’s so hot, it’s really hard to just let yourself go and relax.<br><br>I’ve left every appointment this summer in a pool of sweat and I’m not even that sweaty of a person.<br><br>If the AC issue gets appropriately fixed, I will absolutely give them five stars! My concern is that it’s just been so long with seemingly no solution and I’m not sure why nothings been done about it.<br><br>Anyways, love you Dani, Jordan, and Crystal! You’re the best and NOT the issue here❤❤❤ please fix your AC or get portables in all the rooms! Or I’ll come back in the winter!!!”
“I like to wait to post after seeing results. I started in June 2026 so I have been going for atleast month now, once a week. So far I have done red light therapy, lymphatic massage, Accent Prime, and Electrical Muscle Stimulation (EMS). Each session the focus is on my abdomen and flanks (sides). I am also meal tracking, doing moderate exercise, and monitoring my hydration.<br><br>Before starting body sulpting and massage I was focused on what I ate and exercising for 7 months. I was losing maybe a pound or two a month or nothing at all. From June to now I've lost 7lbs and 2 inchs from my abdomen. I think this has been an added support and encouraging for me through my weight loss journey.<br><br>My body has gotten to a point where others have noticed but most importantly I am noticing. I also feel less bloated and less inflammation. A few people tell me my face no longer looks puffy. It's like an added bonus to the weight loss. The skin around my abdomen also doesn't look pale nor saggy. I have been motivated to drink more water!<br><br>Ms. Karla and Athena take their time with explaining each therapy provided and answering my questions. They are gentle with each treatment and the encouraging words each week on my progress is much appreciated. They are easy to work with when trying to figure out scheduling for appointments. Everyone at the spa is nice and friendly.<br><br>The Spa has air purifier, soft lightning in the rooms, relaxing music, and beautiful artwork. The environment is very relaxing. There is also free parking. Being from the DC area I am a fan of anywhere where their is free easy parking.”
“Before & After 8 Weeks with the “Half a Pound a Day” Program at Weight Loss & Skin Center – a natural weight loss program in Alexandria, Virginia.<br><br>After eight weeks, the transformation has been about much more than the appearance. My health has improved, my body feels lighter, and I have so much more energy every day.<br><br>I’m truly grateful to this program for helping me change not only my body but also my eating habits. It has taught me to value and take better care of my health. This has been a truly memorable journey.<br><br>Without surgery, weight loss pills, injections, or extreme methods, I was able to lose weight naturally, safely, and in a sustainable way.<br><br>What I appreciate most is that the program focuses on reducing body fat while preserving muscle mass. As a result, my body has become leaner, firmer, and healthier. Even though I’ve lost a significant amount of weight, I don’t feel weak or drained. Instead, I feel stronger, healthier, and more energetic than ever.<br><br>This hasn’t just been a weight loss journey—it has been a lifestyle transformation that has helped me love and care for myself more each day. ❤<br><br>I came from Vietnam and visit family here and to join this weight loss program to change myself as I learned about Weight Loss and Skin Center program. I have been heavy for over over 45 years. This trip has been incredibly meaningful to me. One of the greatest lessons I’ve learned is the importance of self-discipline.<br><br>Looking at my current health metrics gives me even more motivation to keep going. I’m still on my journey to reduce body fat and improve my overall health, with the goal of becoming stronger, more active, and enjoying a better quality of life every day.<br><br>One milestone that makes me especially happy is seeing my biological age decrease from 70 to 49<br><br>Thank you to myself for staying committed. And thank you to Fiona Tripp, the team and the program for being part of this journey with me.<br><br>The journey continues.<br>I used Chat GPT to translate my feedback. I hope it turns out the way I want to say how great full I am.<br>Best,<br>Mai.”
“5 STARS!!! My daughter and I have been going here for years. From the moment we walk into the salon, we always feel completely pampered and cared for. The atmosphere is warm and stylish. It's the kind of place where you can truly relax and enjoy being pampered.<br><br>I have to give a special shoutout to Sophea, who is nothing short of a miracle worker. Not only does she take the time to understand exactly what we want, she also offers expert suggestions that elevate our hairstyles. Afterwards, our hair is always shiny, healthy, and the cut is absolutely flawless. You can tell she is passionate about what she does and incredibly skilled at her craft from the decades of experience. And the head massage when she washes your hair....WOW!!<br><br>The nail technician is equally amazing. She's meticulous, gentle, and incredibly talented. My daughter's nails turned out stunning, with a perfect shape and polish.<br><br>Old Town Salon has been our go to salon for years. We always leave feeling confident, refreshed, and we're already looking forward to our next visit. Highly, highly recommend!”
“I love Soleil! I always get my hair done by Christian (all my friends do, too- that's how I learned about him). He does a great job on my unruly hair. A lot of stylists have trouble with it, but he never does. And unlike most salons I've been to, my hair doesn't just look nice for a few days- Christian's hair cuts always grow out really nicely. I also appreciate that he never pressures me to do anything drastic or to buy expensive products. He'll offer helpful suggestions if I ask, but his default is to find out what works for me and make that happen. Prices are reasonable and everything is very clean. I'm a big fan!”
“everyone is very nice and professional and I've already started seeing results after one session”
“What can I tell you TINA is the best she’s been doing my nails, my pedicure, my eyebrows, for more than 3 years, Tina does an outstanding job.<br>Very friendly, super supportive and kind.<br>The staff at the salon very friendly as well.<br>Thank you TINA. 10/10”
“Super<br>Ari is the best 👌 👍<br>So happy 😊”
“It's was great, I was seen the first 10 minutes of me being there and the service was great! Thank you and look forward to my next appointment!”
“I have been going to Pure Aesthetica for 5 years now and have love the treatment I have received from this local business! I have done facials/peels with Tiffany and botox with Jessie. Both women are extremely well trained, kind, and professional, and each procedure has improved the tone and texture of my skin. The medspa is extremely well kept, clean, and welcoming. And the prices are competitive for the area, but without the hassle of scheduling a dermatology appointment/dealing with insurance. I highly recommend Pure Aesthetica for your skincare needs!”
“I never give reviews on any website, but I want write here: Adilla. She is a beautiful and kind girl who wears a hijab. I think she is a new face in this salon.<br>in. this 3 months wait for her for days because she is only here one day a week and I just want that beautiful, kind and personable girl to have time to do what I want for me and I see that every customer who sees her once asks her name and schedule she answers with kindness and a smile. She is really lovely.”
“Heron Med Spa provided exceptional service during the process of onboarding me for my procedure and the procedure itself. Barbara spoke to me at length to make sure I understood all the instructions she personally designed for me I.... she wanted to make sure I understood all the instructions prior to and after my procedure. She was most patient and answered all my questions. Carla was a carbon copy of Barbara. Oh and let me not forget to mention the man of the hours, Dr. Heron. Weeks prior to my procedure, Dr. Heron also called me to follow up to make sure I understood the process, he was patient, knowledgeable and put me at ease. On the day of the procedure, Dr. Heron and Carla took the time to sit with me and my husband to explain all that was about to take place and made sure they had exhausted all of our questions. The procedure was easy peasy and I experienced no pain, just a little discomfort. Dr. Heron talked to me throughout the procedure and told me what he was doing as he was doing it. I trust my desired outcome will be successful because I trust Dr. Heron and will do exactly as instructed post-op.”
“I have been going to Jolie Petite Nails for over 10 years. Moon is and has been my nail technician during this time. She always does an amazing job and she keeps my nails healthy. The staff has changed and now there two new amazing nails techs named My and Lena. If you need your nails done any of these awesome women will take care of you.”
