E Spa And Salon

I would give this place a zero star if possible, so the one seemed the manager was rude and unprofressional to both her coworkers and customers, would it be just her moodswing or from the road rage to work — who knows, but the customers there obviously felt no comfort, no smile and no talk.
you can imagine the service, it doesnt matter what hair style you said, she just finished the way as probably was familiar the most.

Not good.
I wish I read these reviews before I went on Saturday: P I guess I didn’t bother to because my dad and brother go to this place to get their haircut and it always turns out OK.
Let’s start off with the haircut.
The haircut itself was actually not terrible so that’s why I’m giving this place 2 stars instead of 1. When I walked in there were a few customers already and a lady on the phone. I stood and waited and eventually another lady walked out and told me to take a seat. The lady that was on the phone then came over (Michelle) and asked me how I would like my hair. I told her I wanted it to my chin and she asked if I wanted it layered and I said yes. She started cutting and everything was fine and about halfway through she says I will style it so I can see if it is even and I’m like OK thanks and then she asks me if I want my hair washed too and I said OK.
We walked through to the back and she washed my hair and after she asked if I would like my eyebrows waxed and I said «Sure,» because I was thinking about it already.
WORST IDEA EVER.
I should have paid attention and looked at the wax and actually watched to see what she was doing, but I didn’t. The eyebrows turned out well, but little did I know I would be in for a surprise later…
Back to the haircut though, so we get back to the chair and she finishes my hair and at the end she comments «good enough right?» And at that point I’m a little hungry and tired so I just nod and pay, total $ 40 with $ 5 tip.
When I got home and took a look I noticed that the area around my eye where the wax touched was red and a bit raw, but that seemed normal to me from all the other times I got my eyebrows waxed so I didn’t think too much about it. Sunday comes and passes, the area is still red and looks like it is starting to swell… Monday comes and it looks a little worse and on Tuesday when I wake up, BAM! my eyelid is completely swollen. Everyone I talked to said it looked like an allergic reaction. I went to see the doctor on Wednesday and she agreed that it was probably the wax that caused the reaction because the rash is only where the wax touched. I got some medicine and the swelling and rash have gone down a bit, but seriously… there must have been something wrong with the wax E Spa used.
BOTTOM LINE: DON’T GET A WAX HERE! NEVER COMING BACK.

been going here for a few years and i leaving happy every time. the go to person is annie. does a fantastic job reasons why i al ways be getting my hair cut by her and her only. this is the go to spot if you want your hair done right
aaa+++

This was the worst experience I have ever had.
Since I always pass this place when I go to work or the gym I was curious. After all, who could pass up a place that advertises cheap nails and hair cuts? And I’ve been to a few at other places that were relatively cheap and my experience has been ok.
So, today I decide to come in for a eyebrow wax, bikini, and leg wax. The eyebrow went well. Then she started on my legs. She did not know what she was doing and when I cried in pain she asked if I was ok and kept going. She seemed to be rushing it. She kept leaving me and she jumped from one area of my body to another. At one point, she got a razor to scrape hair from an already sore area. I wanted her to stop and said so, but she kept going. I wanted to get out of there as soon as possible.
It was just a huge mess and in the end I had open sores and bruises. This was something I have never experienced. I have thick skin, so to see these bruises and open sores are horrifying. Not only that, most technicians don’t rush or hurt their customers like that. She did and this is unacceptable.
In addition to that, they falsely advertise their prices. If you look at some of the reviews they do a bait and switch on some of their customers. I was only told about the extra charge after the treatment. I was told that I had to pay more because I was big. Bad business practice and extremely unacceptable. If they had been upfront with their prices then I would have understood but no one said anything. It’s not like my size is something I can hide, it’s usually the first thing people notice. They should have said something.
Anyway, on the advice of a nurse, I will report this to both the BBB and the Health Department. I have pictures and videos to show. Hurting a customer like that is unacceptable and they should be held accountable. Not only that, these sores can get infected and that is a health hazard.
So buyer be warned: this business does NOT take care of it’s customers. Do NOT go there!

I wanted to have a french manicure set for my party. This place is near my house and I saw the sign «happy hour manicure $ 10 before 1pm» so I gave it a try. Actually it was 12pm at the time I walked in so it was just a coincidence cuz I did not care about that «happy hour» so much.
The nail technician took more than 1 hour to do my french manicure and the result was horrible! She did not perform a full service of manicure. She just took out some cuticle and washed my hands with soap and water. Only 5 mins for a manicure? Then she did the design for my french tips. One finger was drawn too thick, she cleaned and did it again. Another one had wrinkles, she cleaned and did again. Another one was not straight, cleaned and did again. Even with that effort, my tips were uneven and looked worse than I did it myself at home! (I’m not a nail artist but I’m sure I could perform a better french tips).
And, even with «happy hour $ 10» or something, she charged me $ 28 for all. I did not bother asking cuz it took more than an hour there I just wanted to get myself out of there. I tipped her b/​c I appreciate her effort and patience when she kept re-​doing my french tips. Honestly, if she had got right skills she would have not taken a lot of (my) time to redo it.

Been in a few times and for the most part been satisfied with my haircut for 8 bucks.
I checked to see what time they open and Unilocal says 9am, the front door is marked 9:30am. What are the odds they run late every day? One occasion before they opened late also. It’s 9:45 and I am about to pull away and go somewhere else.
Good haircut good value, questionable scheduling practices. What do ya expect for 8 bucks right? Frustrating before work.

Bleh! Never coming here again. It is filthy and hot inside. I asked for a design on my pedicure and she handed me a bag of children’s stickers to put on my toe… Come on.
They are nice but this is not the spot to go for a pedicure. Ps the sign on the street says $ 15 for a pedi but it’s 18 $.

Worst experience ever!
I went to E spa and salon since it close to my house and I wanted to find somewhere more convenient. I got shelack and a pedicure. BIG MISTAKE!
Upon walking in I was greeted right away… very nice staff, unfortunately that and the spa chairs were the only nice thing in that place. Their gel color options are minimal. 10 – 15 MAYBE. Then, the color that I did choose they could not find anywhere in the shop. Really ladies? You have a handful of gel colors.
When it was time for my pedicure the tub had water in it. From the smell of chemicals I thought it was being cleaned. Towards the end of my pedicure I saw that the tub next to me also had water in it with toe nail trimmings. I was so disgusted, had I seen that in the beginning I would have walked out then. But let me talk about the pedicure itself. They barely cut my cuticles away and the skin they did cut was painful. And the massage… WHAT MASSAGE? She literally put lotion on my legs and turned my foot in a couple circles. I’d say that lasted about 30 second total. A whole 15 second lotion rub per leg.
Oh and to top it off my shalack started coming off the very next day. I will say that when I went back to have them fix it they were very nice about it.
So over all one star because they have very sweet women there. But other than that I would not recommend anyone go there. As a matter of fact I have already made sure to tell my mother and all 3 of my sisters to make sure they do not ever visit this place since they also live close by.

I once saw this booth at a street fair for «free surprise manicures» where you put your hand through a box, and the person on the other end would paint your nails however they wanted. This experience felt like that, except more expensive.
The women doing nails spoke zero english so my desires were poorly communicated. Unsurprisingly, the result was disappointing.
I asked for a shellac french manicure with black tips instead of white. They didn’t understand so they got somebody to communicate for us. The translator assured me that everything was sorted out, but when the woman actually began painting my nails, she gave me a regular french manicure. At this point, there was nobody available to translate for us. Instead, through copious pointing I was able to intimate to them that I wanted black tips, only to discover that they didn’t have black gel nail polish.
In the end I walked out with just the nude color but she didn’t put nearly enough coats, so you can barely even tell my nails were painted. Oh, and I unwittingly agreed to getting glittery ring fingers which I actually — politely nodding can have its benefits I guess lol.
I’m giving this the one extra star cause the women painting my nails really were nice and sweet, and I don’t blame them for not speaking English. Really they should be better equipped by management to deal with the language barrier. It’s not like management didn’t realize they didn’t speak English when they hired them…

I had the pleasure of having the Lovely Tracy work on my hair today. I came in for a straightening touch up and hair cut. She is so professional, sweet, shows she really cares, takes pride in what she does. I highly recommend this salon! Everyone there is so welcoming. Thank you so much! Loving my hair!

The Experience,
I went in today for a haircut on my lunch hour feeling happy as a clam. Upon entering the entrance way, there was no greeting from any staff members while I walked toward the waiting area and took a seat. Note, all staff members are asian and female. I noticed as I sat down to wait my turn, a caucasian man walked in and suddenly life of the staff members arose in courtesy. I felt as if I was nothing since I was ignored while I walked in. One staff member then acknowledged the caucasian man in just minutes that they will be right with him while I was again ignored. I noticed two staff members finished with their customers and then afterwards looked ridiculous sprinting towards the caucasion man. Now from what I saw from that instant was an epic production of discrimination white superiority vs. minority. Note, I have no problem with any caucasian people. However, for anyone that is in line and is serviced before someone in front of them should have the common courtesy to tell the service that it is not their turn but the caucasian man did not have the courtesy to do so. Note, my body language was active in getting attention towards the staff but I did not received it. Anyways, I rose from my seat and finally but secondly was chosen to sit on a seat to get my haircut. I got my haircut and it was quick not even 10 minutes. The barber took the mirror and showed me the rear of my head and boy it was rushed. I told her to straighten my bowl shaped haircut and she took the time to fix it. Okay so the service is cheap, poor quality cut, poor customer service, disorganized and a disappointment. And may I add discriminatory unfortunately since I was cut short. If you are able to tolerate this nature then by all means the work is cheap but haircuts do the job if not then definitely don’t come here.
Best,
Brown shaded skinned Asian customer.

Worst hair cut ever, I asked for a trim and she chopped my hair then continued to cut it shorter due to her lack of skills evening it out. Never again, pay more somewhere else and get it done the way you want.

Worse haircut of my life!
I know my hair is thin and curly and probably not the easy to cut, but «Helen» did the worse job I ever had.
The request was just plain short on the sides and top and I ended up with extremely short with bold spots and and uneven semi long cut on top.
First she asked me if «nr 3» for her trimmer was ok, how would I know ?
Then she turned me away from the mirror and started her butchery. While she was complaining about my curls and how difficult it was, I got more worried by the minute.
When she turned me around, I was astonished and close to desperation of what she had done !
My advise, If you don’t want to look like a fool for at least a month of your life, avoid this «salon» like the plague !

Good Service, Consistent, Timely, Accommodating even with short notice, Friendly, Professional.

I went here for the first time today and I was satisfied with the result. I asked for my hair to be relayered on the top but for the hair stylist to NOT touch my bottom layers. The hairstylist (didn’t catch her name I’m afraid… she was an Asian lady in her 40s or so) questioned me a bit since she wanted to cut off «the damage» but she did exactly as I asked. As long as you’re clear with what you want, I’m sure you’ll get what you came for at a very reasonable price. (Mine was $ 14)

this place is a winner in my book shampoo and scalp massage the best
thank you

I got a manicure from here today, and it was not a manicure anyone should have to pay for. I was expecting it to be $ 5, but I guess they’ve changed their prices to $ 10. For my $ 10 I got my cuticles clipped back until they bled, 2 coats of a nail polish that really needed 3 coats (their nail polish is not the best quality, either), and pretty bad treatment from the staff.
The woman who did my nails kept trying to sell me more services that I didn’t want. She told me that I should get a pedicure, and even though I said no thank you, she kept pushing it the entire time. On top of that, she asked if I wanted my eyebrows done, and when I said no thank you again, she said, «You need it.»
Well thank you, E Spa and Salon for painting my nails worse than I could myself and then insulting my eyebrows. I’m not coming back.

I always come here to get my hair cut and I go to a specific stylist and her name is Annie. She always takes care of my hair and enjoy our nice conversations. The haircuts are very affordable. I used to go somewhere else and practically double the price and had half the attention I received. I’m really happy that I found a go to spot for my hair. Make sure you ask for Annie!

They’re cheap and dirty. Want to know how dirty?
Two words: nail fungus.
NEVER. EVER. AGAIN. OMFG.

I wish that Silicon Valley had more businesses like E Spa. I’ve been coming here for about a year, as it’s conveniently located on the way to work, my kid’s school, and so on. When I first tried them out, I had zero expectations. I was just amazed at their prices which are so reasonable as to be «too reasonable». $ 8 for a men’s haircut is a far cry from Supercuts which usually runs almost $ 20 with tip and incidentals. The friendly service and «mom and pop» feel of E Spa has kept me coming back, bringing my daughter, wife, and even my mother when she was visiting from out of town.
E Spa is not an upscale day spa (e.g., Spa of Los Gatos or Burke Williams). It’s a great place to get a cut and style, maybe a mani/​pedi. My daughter likes me to bring her to get her nails painted while I get a haircut. It’s fun to pamper her for $ 5 and treat her like a princess. At the most basic level, it’s at least as good as a Supercuts-​plus-​nail salon, and they don’t pretend to be anything more. Importantly to me, it’s a small local business that maintains great pricing and service. Worth a try!
