Simply Ravishing – The Salon

Just had an incredibly relaxing 90 minute massage with Abbie. Great skills, just the right amount of communication and a really nice person too.
I always said I would have a massage once or twice a month here in Gilbert but never knew of anywhere good enough. Problem solved.
Abbie & Simply Ravishing, you have a new regular customer!

This is a must-​come-​to place if your looking for the best massage in town. Make sure to ask for Abbie when scheduling. I wouldn’t waste my time or money anywhere else.

Simply Ravishing is simply the best! Tara is an artist and I always get compliments on my nails. The salon is always spotless and everyone is friendly. Have you ever gone to other salons and the stylists are catty, gossiping and making snide comments behind other clients backs — epecially in Snottsdale, I mean Scottsdale? Not here. Everyone here is very helpful and if you have questions about products, procedures or if you see a cut or color you like, they’ll explain it all to you. Just a great relaxing environment!

This really is a nice salon. The nail technicians are nice and the price is reasonable. I also get my hair cut and colored there. Their cosmos are good, solid quality without inflated prices. Just last week I had two ladies take pictures of my hair to show their Cosmo to duplicate. What a nice compliment. I really do love simply ravishing salon.

Tara and the rest of the staff are super nice. A couple weeks ago we were in for back to school haircuts for our kids, now they’re looking good for the new year and ready for pictures. Definitely recommended!

I just returned to this salon again. Tara gave me a wonderful Rainforest Pedicure with GELISH Color! Great Service!

***UPDATE***
Thank you to Missy and everyone else at Simply Ravishing for helping me create a great «scavenger hunt/​surprise anniversary day» for my wife!
I had planned a surprise for my wife by setting up a manicure and pedicure with Missy. The whole staff was careful to help keep the secret in case my wife called in to get any services. They all helped in the surprise and I couldn’t be happier!
Want to treat the special someone in your life? This is the place!!!

Original review…
My wife loves this place and from what I’ve seen she should! I don’t know why these other reviews rate them so low and I can’t imagine why.
My wife recently went to go from a long hair style to a short style and although I was skeptical at first I couldn’t have been happier! She looks great and the staff was friendly, accommodating and went out their way to make her feel comfortable.
My wife hasn’t had a regular stylist for some time since we moved from Oregon and she was afraid to let just anyone style her hair. Her stylist not only did a great job but she also showed what to do to get that certain look that it seems only a stylist can do. She also said «If you go home and notice something you need changed or fixed just let me know and I’ll get you back in free of charge» That’s professionalism!
The nails they’ve done for her were great too! She never had gel nails before and now that’s all she will get. They lasted so long and maintained their look. One of the best things about the pedicure was they changed the plastic liner for the foot bath. They didn’t just change the water like these other places, they actually have disposable plastic liners that made it the most sanitary we’ve ever seen!!!
I know this because I went with my wife as a surprise and watched her get a pedicure. And yes I just hung out there…
So, needless to say, if I ever want to treat my wife with something special I know where to go!
This is one local business I can’t recommend high enough!

I have had some pretty bad experiences with my hair, unfortunately this makes me a HUGE scaredy cat when it comes salons. I have finally found a place that makes me comfortable and is affordable. My hair dressers name is Kim, and she is fantastic. She is easy to talk to, and very down to earth. My hair color and my stepdaughters hair color is always exactly what we ask for. Thats hard when you’ve got a teenager that wants to go from red to blonde with a green stripe! Kim makes it happen:) The salon is spotless also. Kudos to you Simply Ravishing for getting it right!

I’m sorry to have to give this salon such a poor review, but after three attempts to book a spa pedi with Missy, I gave up and called Cosmos Day Salon and Spa even though they are a lot more expensive. On Friday, May 30, I called Missy and left a message to have her call me back. She called me back on Saturday and told me she would be with clients all day. I called anyway and asked her to call me back; she didn’t. I called on Monday, April 30 and asked that she call me and to date, she hasn’t called me back. I saw good reviews for Missy on Facebook, but after this experience, I won’t be calling any longer. I’ve been going to Cosmos for over a year now and do get a really good spa pedicure there. I did want to try Missy because it sounded like she does a really good job. Evidently she has enough clients because she certainly could have called on Saturday after her clients were gone. Disappointed to say the least.

I have all positives to say about the salon and staff! The salon is very clean and organized. Everyone uses professional products. The staff is very pleasant and talented. You can feel comfortable to go to anyone there for a hair cut, manicure, pedicure, facial or massage and you will be pleased. Every staff member takes pride in their job and that doesnt usually happen through out a whole salon. My family has had their hair cut and colored there and I have had lash extensions, massages, facials and pedicures. I’ve been happy with every service and I am PICKY! Also, the fact that the files, buffers and liners for the pedi tubs are all one-​time use products, makes that pedi a real top seller in my book. I’ll definitely be back and so will my family!

I have very thick and curly/​wavy hair that is difficult to cut, and was never happy with a new cut before I started going to Kim. She’s amazing! She understands my hair and makes it look wonderful. She also recommended blonde highlights — I went with her recommendation and got tons of compliments. Overall, there’s not a better stylist in the East Valley! Thanks Kim!

Simply aweful I must say. Do not get your hair done here. I can’t say how the other services are. I thought I was getting my hair colored by the top stylist. I read the bios on the website and their years of experience. It seemed like a complete lie. I had to go back to have her redo my hair, still aweful. I’ve had my hair done dozens of times at other salons. I would feel bad to name who this is but her name starts with St…

Facial. Not the kind you get on a Friday night, either. Heh.
Kristen gave me an amazing facial! She wanted the experience to be relaxing, and when she saw my eyes opened, offered to put a towel over them so I could get the most relaxing experience possible.
She likes using products that are more naturally-​based than chemical. Even gave me some tips on things to use from my kitchen to use to cleanse or moisturize. I even went through the things I use currently at home & she told me the pros and cons of each product.
Her scalp/​shoulder massage was so divine, I told her she should get licensed in massage therapy.
First time clients get a deal: $ 40 for a complete facial!
So, it’s worth the drive. Ask for Kristen. Go. Go now.
(She can even do makeup and nails!)

I went to this salon a couple of weeks ago, after seeing a deal through their facebook page. I scheduled a massage and facial for both my mom and I. The prices were unbelievable, so I had to find out if the services were as well. We were greeted upon arrival by Terry. She is super friendly and welcoming, so yeah we felt at ease right then and there. I looked around the salon and the enitre satff seemed to be attentive and professional. Shortly after Melanie (aesthetician) and Michelle (LMT) came to meet with my mom and me. They were both so easy to talk to, that I kind of knew right then, that we would not be disappointed. After translating for my mom and brief Q&A session, Michelle took my mom back for her massage and I followed Melanie for my facial. My mom says that Michelle did a wonderful job. She says she made her feel comfortable (this was her first massage) was very patient, and worked out all the knots around her neck and back. I too had a great first time experience, with my facial. Melanie gave me a chocolate mint facial that smelled yummy and felt great! The extractions was the coolest part I think. My mom and I were done almost at around the same time and then we switched rooms. I did have a great massage with Michelle, (mother knows best) and even got some tips on scar care. My mom says she loved her facial too, and that she would like to make these part of her beauty regimen. The next day at school I was getting compliments on my skin, I honestly didn’t think people could notice a change just because I did. But they noticed, and whats more important I can feel my skin smoother, no bumps and there is less redmess. *DEAL DETAILS (now expired)-1 hour massage $ 45, 1 hour chocolate mint facial-​$ 35. Mother and daughter combo= 4 hours of service for $ 160! You cant beat that. I am glad that we decided to visit this salon, no more trial and error for us. We have found our beauty sanctuary. Thanks Melanie and Michelle!

I am really sorry to have to write this review because my nail technician, Linda, was so nice while I was at the salon. Almost a month ago I went in for a Rock Star Pedicure. I had a birthday trip planned to meet up with some friends and go sightseeing in DC and wine tasting in Virginia and I wanted a no hassle pedi that I wouldn’t have to think about on my trip. I wish it would have worked out that way, but instead I got a toe infection that required me to, under doctor’s advice, «stay off of my feet» and soak my feet three times a day. Hardly the carefree vacation I had planned.
the pedi was cute, but around 24 hours after my pedicure I noticed that my big toe was starting to look red and swollen right along the nail line. I texted Linda with a picture of the obviously infected toe and asked it if it was a normal reaction, and she said it was not, but don’t worry. Well, a few hours later my other big toe was starting to look swollen as well, so I called my doctor, who advised me to go to urgent care. The doctor in urgent care stated that both toes were definitely very infected, and that I would have to take an antibiotics course to get rid of the infection. As well as try to stay off of my feet as much as possible. As many of you probably know, you can’t drink and take antibiotics at teh same time — so our wine tasting trip to Virginia was completely ruined. Having to stay off of my feet and soak them three times a day made it difficult to site see as well.
I wasn’t going to write this review, but I’ve been very nice with Linda about informing her about the progress, and I feel like she’s still blowing it off. When she texted to check on my toes, I told her that it was, in fact, diagnosed as an infection around the nail bed, and that, almost a month later, it still not completely gone. I told her that i had to be on antibiotics for ten days as a result. She responded by asking if the doctor said it was an allergy. Mind you, I had already informed her that I was sure I wasn’t allergic to gels (I’ve had them done before on my hands), plus, if it was an allergy, all of my toes would have become swollen, not just two. I texted her a picture of my toe so she could see the infection for herself. And like I said, the DOCTOR diagnosed it as an infection, pretty conclusive.
If I were a business owner, I would have quickly offered to refund the price of the pedicure and tip, at a minimum. Goodness knows that in addition to the cost of the pedicure, I had to pay a $ 40 copay at the urgent care as a result, plus the $ 15 copay for the antibiotics I had to take as a result of the pedicure. And my trip to tour DC and wine taste in virginia was drastically impacted by the thrice daily soaking and antibiotics the infection required.
Like I said, I didn’t want to write this review because Linda was so nice while I was getting the pedi, but after a month of infection and an additional $ 55 in costs to cure the infection, its just basic customer service to apologize and try to make it up to the client.
