Self Indulgence Spa

I have been a happy waxing customer of another waxing salon for about 6 months. However in an effort save money I looked around and found that this place would do the same body areas — back, full legs and Brazilian for $ 45 less than my usual place. In an effort to economize I decided to give them a try — BIG MISTAKE. The room was dimly lit — not a good idea for waxing as the waxer can’t see what they have missed — and she missed A LOT. The waxing tech used large waxing strips — about 4′ — 5″ wide. This allows them to cover larger areas faster, but at the expense of the comfort of the client. My usual place uses 2″ strips and the discomfort was never a problem Here its was almost intolerable. When I got home I found a LOT of missed areas that I tried to tweeze but there were so many I just gave up and shaved everything. The tech also managed to renove a large layer of skin from the area covering my family jewels. Today the area is scratched, sore and even blistered. Very painful. I also have bruising on one of my legs. In the end I saved $ 45 on my usual waxing salon but I wasted $ 150 on this unprofessional, uncomfortable and completely useless experience. My advice: Avoid this place like the plague. It definitely NOT worth the savings. In the end you get what you pay for. And when youre payng someone to remove hair from your body, pay the little extra and use someone who knows what they are doing. This place does not.

Second time here, it’s a nice place, clean and relaxing. Quick note, it would have been appreciated if «CASH ONLY» was mentioned to me when reservation was made, I was FORCED to use ATM in your facility and that came along with ATM and bank fees, I was ready for cash tip but not the CASH ONLY service.

Nothing fancy, works fine, they are open late. The person who worked with me was not very skillful but definitely worked hard and tried to do a good job. I will visit again.

The facial that I got from Jay was very refreshing, its been two weeks and my skin still feels soft. I loved how peaceful and relaxing it is in there. He also gave the perfect amount of pressure for my deep tissue massage massage, always a plus.
Im big on cleanliness and customer service and I definitely felt accommodated. Definitely going back soon.

Easy parking, sweet, knowledgeable staff, very reasonable prices!

Great service. Very relaxing. Took their time and were very detailed. Got the couples massage and facial for Valentine’s Day and it was an experience well worth it

This place is a hidden gem. Drive by it everyday, and finally decided to stop in.
First of all, the evening hours are so convenient for a working mom. I called Thursday evening and was able to get in for Friday night.
When I arrived, I felt so welcome and was immediately escorted to the room for my facial. It was excellent! Additionally, Amy was able to remove about 10 skin tags I had on my neck. I walked out feeling amazing!
I will definitely be back!

First off… I had their brochure in hand and went in strictly for a facial… There were 60 – 80 dollar ones… I had this quick with a strange massage and someone else cane in to tell me that they could remove my beauty marks. one raised one on my face. I said? OK. so she scraped and applied something to both and said they would fall off… well 2 weeks passed and nothing fell. nothing shrunk. and the facial was mediocre. I was charged 140 and I went back to get a refund for my beauty marks that never fell off. I was told I needed another week or so for them to really fall. no thanks.careful. Scammers here.

Love this place, never let me down. I go for waxing, massage, and eyelash extensions… All services are great. They are very professional and friendly. The music is very relaxing. The place is very clean.

I would give them zero stars if i could !!!
Me and my boyfriend went .
so i got the «hour» Clear back facial for 70 $ (which was a complete rip off)
Immediately after laying on the table she said «OH it’s not gonna be that long ! Only 30 min»
I said «i thought it was a hour that’s what i’m paying for ! I might as well get a massage «
Anyways she was killing time by finding stuff, that should’ve been out and set up already !
it just wasn’t a relaxing environment ! Really my back facial only took 15 mins !!! i was so pissed ! i’m very use to getting massages and this was the absolute worst place I’ve ever been !!! NO EFFORT ! COMPLETELY LAZY
My Boyfriend got the facial ! He said «all she did was wash my face and put lotion on it » !
We were just completely disappointed ! we were in and out in 20 mins after paying 130 $
DON’T GET SCAMMED BY THIS PLACE IT“S HORRIBLE!
For the same price drive 2 more minutes down into Beverly Hills and go to REAL PROFESSIONALS that understand people work hard to relax and enjoy themselves !
TWO THUMBS DOWN!

This is a great place. I came here twice last week for a massage! The staff are very friendly, all female therapists and it’s clean and professional. They have parking in the back and they do a great deep tissue massage, just make sure to let them know exactly what you want and you will leave feeling a lot better :) Not too overpriced either.

As my first massage I was very cautious about where I picked. I saw the great Unilocal reviews so I thought I’d check it out. I was looking for the location on SM blvd and driving around like an idiot getting lost. Amy calls me at 10am to check that I’m still coming and tells me I’m at the wrong address, they’ve moved to Pico Blvd after manning. Oh, how wonderful!!! Thanks for telling me at 10am when 10am is the time of my app. They need to update their website with the new address and also tell people when they call in that they’ve moved. Common sense people!
It was a little uncomfortable for my first time massage. Amy tells me to take all my clothes off and lay down face first. Uhhhh… nooo!!! I don’t think so!!! I told her I’ll just take my top off. I used my spa finder gift card so I got a 30 min deep tissue massage for $ 40 (not a bad deal). I told Amy I had slight back pain although she mainly did a general massage all over my body and not concentrating on my back where I had the main issues but concentrating on where had the most tension. She said she was going to give me some advice on back pain treatments and what to have done next visit but clearly forgot and said «Thank you!» and left.
I definitely won’t be back but I won’t let this experience deter me from future massages. I just have to find the right place. Maybe I should have spent the extra money and gone to Massage therapy center at $ 90 for an hour massage… Hell…nooo…I don’t think so.

Yikes. I walk in around 5:10. I sat in the front area for maybe 10 – 12 minutes with no interaction. Finally someone sees me and leads me to a room. I originally wanted a 60 minute massage but since so much had been wasted from me just sitting there, I told them now I only have time for 30 minutes. The space seemed clean but small. My particular room had another bed in it and it seemed like a room where they did facials with all of the equipment in the room… on the other bed, it looked like someone was actually living in that room. There was a computer, someone’s wallet wide open on the bed, etc. All very odd. It’s now around 5:25 and still no one has come into the room so I wait, wait, wait, wait… I heard the door open and it was just someone coming to get their computer. SO AWKWARD AS I AM LAYING ON THE MASSAGE TABLE.
I should’ve walked out right then but I was gracious and really wanted to give this place a shot. I waited another… TWENTY MINUTES. It’s nearly 5:50 now and I’m completely out of time. I had to leave at this point. I got up and got dressed, walked to front area and surprisingly, saw TWO employees just SITTING there. One of them was picking lint off her pants. I meaaaaaaaaan…
I told them I had been for waiting for around 30 minutes and now it was time for me to leave. I have never had to do anything like this. I was so embarrassed but honestly, really disappointed in either the lack of communication on the employees part or sheer laziness.
I told the woman I’m sorry and she said she could send someone back right now and I kept walking out the door. She said «I’m sorry» and I said, «Yeah, I’m sorry, too.» It was such a weird experience.
If anyone needs a good recommendation on a really phenomenal place, it’s called Sawadee Thai Spa… I LOVE IT!

A truly great experience in a spa that is right in between the corner foot massage place and the super high end, over priced spas. They are reasonably priced, the staff is very friendly and professional, the place is nice, clean, and comfortable. My prenatal massage was really perfect and I look forward to coming back for another visit soon!

I’d never heard of this spa until groupon. I bought a spa day groupon that included a body scrub, massage and facial for 90 mins. I had no problem booking an appointment.
They have a couple parking spots out back and there’s plenty of street parking. Get there 5 mins early to do the paperwork if it’s your first time. The rooms are small, clean and efficient. Sadly not sound proof.
I got Patsy. She did all three services. She was very quiet, nice and surprisingly strong. I’d ask for her again. The service was good. The facial didn’t include any extractions or exfoliation but that was fine. They didn’t annoy me by pushing products which was a big plus. And they gave me service discount vouchers for next time :)
Btw they have you shower after your body scrub which is before your massage. They have shampoos and body wash but take flip flops.

Very impressed with their service. I flew in from Texas to meet with my girlfriends for my bachelorette extravaganza and they were all attentive. Next time I book a trip back home you can bet I will squeeze in time for this place. Thanks to groupon! :)

I asked for a Swedish massage w some deep tissue. What I got was more like a combo Thai and deep tissue with some Swedish (emphasis on some). The place seems like more of a Thai Massage place that tries to accommodate other types of massage styles. I’m not a fan of Thai massage so it was a bit disappointing.
Everyone is friendly, the ambience is relaxing. The sheets are not white cotton sheets but rather looked like burlap fabric — a bit too industrial for my taste but maybe that keeps costs low.
The massage therapist was very nice and always asked if the pressure was okay. At the end I was twisted and stretched — again very Thai style and unfortunately not my thing but it gets the job done as far as releasing tension.

I went in to get waxed because I have an upcoming trip to Belize and I need to be bikini ready. Got a Brazilian and it was great!
Amy is so nice and she does a really good job. I didn’t ever feel uncomfortable and I was talking with her during the whole thing and it kept me from being nervous.
It is relaxing and comfortable there.
I booked the appointment yesterday but then had to change the time. So I walked in because I wasn’t sure I could change the appointment but she changed it for me very easily.
Just great and will definitely be coming back more.

I got a deal on Livingsocial. They had the wrong address in their and I went to other place and then couldn’t find the new address. Anyways, I was pissed when I got there. But everyone was so friendly and helpful that it immediately took my tension away. I got a nice facial and a massage.
It’s worth a try in my opinion ;)

Received a couples Thai massage & facial:
— Clean
— No welcome at entrance
— small rooms but functional
— decent massage but didn’t touch key areas as long as I would’ve liked as indicated during check-​in
— facial included a scrub and mask. It was very light and all organic which is a plus for my very sensitive skin
Overall, I had a fair experience.
