Nushka’s Spa

Just got my entire face waxed by Claire. It was such a pleasant experience and she was so fun to talk to! Highly recommend!

A small friendly oasis of natural products and treatments. I especially love Nushka’s facials, Ivan’s foot massages, and Mary’s flawless pedicures.

Friday afternoon and my friend and I wanted a nice relaxing pedicure to end the week. The bigger places were booked so Unilocal reviews guided us here. It will be our new go to place. Delightful venue with comfortable chairs and great staff. All the products used are organic. The nail polish is still looking great after a week.

I received a brilliant pedicure from Mary at Nushka’s Spa. Mary was professional, pleasant, precise and gentle. Her massage was awesome and so relaxing. The spa is clean, bright and welcoming. They do facials, massage and waxing too! I most certainly will return.

I love this spa! I’ve had my legs waxed here 3 times now and it’s been a great experience each time! Even though I have sensitive skin it’s not bothered by the treatments I’ve had here! Claire is quick, super friendly and thorough and everyone who I’ve talked to over the phone has been equally professional. I had an appointment with another spa a few months ago because I had a gift certificate with them, and they called me an hour before my appointment to cancel because the technician had the flu and they didn’t have a replacement. Obviously I understood but still really wanted my legs waxed for the weekend so I called Nushka’s and they got me in an hour later! Their products are natural and smell great. I highly recommend this spa!

Best nails I’ve ever had. The place is very clean and the people who work there are all super polite and friendly. Also, the wax they use is amazing! Had my eyebrows waxed and because of the high quality wax there was no red or breakout.

For some reason I thought I had already written and posted a review last year. Shame on me for not making sure! Nushka’s is one of the best! Every summer I am in town I go to Nushka for my waxing and facials. She uses quality products, explains and everything. The spa is spotless, and the service is outstanding. Her Brazilian waxing is the best I’ve gotten. She doesn’t reuse the wood sticks in the wax container as so many places do, and there isn’t wax left everywhere after the treatment.
My face always looks so much better and stay looking brighter after her facials. I always love socializing with Nushka because she is so genuine and sincere. You always feel like you are being welcomed into her home. She makes the best coffee and treats you like a true friend. Thank you and I look forward to being your guest next sumner.

I got an underarm wax here a month or so ago, forgot to write a review so I’m doing it now as i plan to go back tomorrow. This was the best underarm wax experience. The woman was so easy to talk to and friendly. She made the experience great and put me at ease. Not to mention, the wax they use causes little pain. She got all the stray hairs and even gave me a student discount. Great experience, would definitely recommend coming here!

I’m from out of town, but very fast and friendly and thorough Brazilian wax. Nushka was very nice and did such an amazing job in such a short amount of time! Thank you for being so considerate to students here:)) also very painless and I felt comfortable the whole time.

I have only had my brows tinted here twice and my lashes as well but I am very new to Eugene. Great service and great expertise. Both Nushka and Evangelina (hope I spelled that correctly) are more than pleasant and do their job quite well. I will definitely be returning here for future brow, lash, facial and nail needs.

Called today around 4:30 to make an eyebrow appointment. They booked me at 5:30. Called back at 5:00 because a meeting ran late and asked for a 6:00 appointment instead (their Unilocal site says they close at 6:00 but Google said 7:00). They agreed to 6:00. Showed up ten minutes early and the lights were off and the door locked! I waited until 6:05 in case someone was going to come back for my appointment time. No one ever showed. They had my number from booking the appointment — why wasn’t I called?

They are really great at waxing! I highly recommend them. I’ve been waxed by Nushka and another lady. Both were very professional and their wax& waxing area were very clean.

Nushka is amazing! I’ve gone to her many times for a Brazilian and occasional eyebrow wax, and she’s been incredible every time. Brazillians only take her about 10 minutes which is very much so appreciated, and always does a fantastic job. Also offers 10% off to students!

Called today looking for a mani/​pedi and was pleasantly surprised to get an appt for later that afternoon. Mariya did a wonderful job. I can be a bit squeamish about pedicures but I have no complaints about the job she did — gentle yet thorough. Nushka sat next to me in the pedi chair and had her polish changed and she struck up a conversation. All in all, everyone was very pleasant. They are a bit expensive… I think it was $ 74 before tip (no gels no wine). In Portland, I generally pay $ 70 including tip and wine at a non-​Asian salon (Asian salons are usually cheaper). The salon gets good marks in cleanliness as well. I will definitely go back.

Best and fastest Brazilian ever!!! Nushka the owner has 27 years of experience… if you dare to go bare… Nushka is the gal to go see… you wont be dissppointed. Had a massage with Ivan and was impressed with his skill as well… he got right in there and worked out some knotted stress!!! Had a pedicure with sweet Stephanie… and she didn’t disappoint either!!!

I got a gel manicure here on a Thursday evening. This is a small spa but nicely decorated and has relaxing music and nice tea. They use the type of gel polish that only requires 30 seconds under the UV light, which I prefer because I have sensitive skin.
I worked with Liz and she she was very welcoming, warm and easy to talk to. She shared some good tips for how to keep my ultra-​dry hands moisturized.
I plan to come back here for my next pedicure, half because of the service and half because the pedicure chairs look really comfortable.

I got a manicure and pedicure with Mariya and it was fantastic. She is careful and attentive to details and the massage felt great. The place is clean and relaxing. Highly recommended.

Thank you fellow Unilocalers; I’m new in town and chose this salon based upon the reviews. All I can say is that you guys were right! Love that she gave me a latte while I was waiting. The place looked spotless and the service was top-​notch. I got both a lip/​brow wax and gel nail manicure and was very pleased with both. I made another appointment before I left and I’m calling back to add on a pedicure because their ped chairs look awesome.

Before going to Nushka’s, I was a non-​believer in manicures. It seemed that no matter which salon I tried, my nail experience was disappointing in some way; strange-​hued shades, acrylics that broke within 3 days, gel nails that showed signs of wear by the time I got home, or just really insane salon prices that scoffed at my college student budget.
I use my nails ALL of the time: recklessly, aggressively, excessive dish-​scrubbingly. So I had pretty much accepted my fate as One Of Those Girls Who Just Can’t Rock A Manicure, when I saw the Nushka’s Spa coupon in the University of Oregon student survival book. Since I had a positive Brazilian wax experience there before (see previous review) and they had earned my trust, I decided to nail the discount opportunity.*bmm bmm chhh*
Brandy’s gel manicure is AMAZING. I first opted for a medium pink («You go girl»?), which, over the course of two weeks, eventually faded to a soft OPI «Hopelessly in Love» color – and still stayed! I was so hooked that when the color finally dissolved, I had to make another appointment. Awesome, shiny, perfectly-​shaped, hassle-​free nails for OVER two weeks? Yes, please.
I was going to get the same color – until I saw the amazing purplish blue shiny color on Brandy’s nails. It’s just a black gel color with opaque sparkles over it and it shimmers with shades of blue and purple depending on the light you’re in. I’ve gotten lots of compliments, which makes sense because I pretty much have art/​constant entertainment on my nails.
Sadly, my budget has forced me to return to nude nails, but I was pleasantly surprised to discover that after taking the gel polish off, my nails were in better condition than they were before I started getting gel manicures. Yay, Nushka’s!

I wrote a review awhile ago but it doesn’t seem to appear anymore.
I have been going to Nushka for my brazilian waxing and true European facials on a regular basis for over a year now. She knows what she is doing and helps me take care of my skin as I age. She has wonderful products from Europe to buy that make me want to take care of my skin at home on a more consist ant basis.
I get my nails done in spurts… Lately every two weeks for Gelish (brand of gel for natural nails) nail creations with Brandy. It’s fun to sit with her and decide what colors to put together and share life adventures, I get pedicures with the old fashioned OPI but may get the Gelish on my toes next time. .
I highly recommend Nushka and Brandy… They are very good at what they do. It’s a sweet and clean retreat and I feel pampered and beautiful.
I write this in support of what they are creating with this spa and providing to our community. I encourage you to check them out… You will not be disappointed!
