Blu Bird Spa

Shelbie gives the most awesome, relaxing deep tissue massage. I have finally found my massage home after searching for two years.

5 BIG stars for Jamie!
She did great. Im an esthetician myself but i like to get monthly facials as well, i havent found a great place since sunlight dayspa which is under remodeling so i’ve been looking around. She uses great products and makes it relaxing while obtaining your cosmetic needs. The building isn’t extremley eye catching but the inside is very nice! Give it a try you might just be changing your estheticians.

Mike and his team are talented and friendly. I have enjoyed getting my hair styled with Mike for many years and Jackie and Shelby take away all of my stress with a 60 minute massage.
I would recommend Blu Bird Spa… give it a try!

Jamie is amazing — my skin looks so dewy and glowing — love this place — booked an extraction facial for my teenage son and another facial for me! You won’t regret coming here.

Based on Unilocal reviews, I went in to purchase a gift card for an extremely special circumstance. I mean, it had to be perfect. They were out of gift cards, and the receptionist did not know how to make more, so she called her boss. Not a big deal, as things like this happen. I waited for about 25 minutes total while she phoned her boss a couple of times to locate material and software for making more. The kicker was when one boss/​owner was on the phone with his wife/​other boss/​owner and I heard her explode over the phone for being bothered. I came VERY CLOSE to walking out…but the two employees helping me in person were so sweet, and the place looked adorable and welcoming, and I didn’t know where else to go.
Would I come here for services? Hmm, I do not think I would want to be around grumpy owner. Maybe if she had the day off, I would try it. Once bitten, twice shy, ya know?

Jaime gives a TOP OF THE LINE facial! You never know what you’re actually going to get when you purchase a facial because they all do it differently, but she does it all! She rubs your feet, your calves, your shoulders, your arms, AND your hands! Yeah — and this is a FACIAL! You get ALL the extras! She was also the perfect combination of personable (talkative) and quiet so that you can really relax and enjoy. She lets you know what your skin needs and makes product suggestions, but does not pressure you to buy anything.
The environment is calm and relaxing. She provided a comfortable robe that truly fits all sizes. I would absolutely recommend Jaime for anyone that’s looking for a facial!

I was referred to Blu Bird Spa by my hairdresser and couldn’t have been happier. Jamie does a fabulous job with facials and Shelbie’s massage was wonderful! I booked my next appointment before I left, even though I had only intended to pamper myself for the holidays. So glad to have discovered this spa!

I got my first massage ever from Shelbie a couple months ago and I’ve been coming back ever since. She does a fantastic job and combines a variety of massage styles. And Blu Bird Spa is a great, locally-​owned business that I’m happy to support.

Love getting my pedicure and wax from katelynn she has done my highlights as well she just always blows me away with how awesome she does!

Amazing atmosphere to get nails done! This place is a hidden gem. We had excellent service and our nails look great for my sisters wedding! Definitely will be back when I am in town.

We bought a $ 293 value gift certificate for a day of beauty donated by blu bird at the end of last September while visiting Kansas City for a charity event. NO EXPIRATION DATE was on certificate. I called to use last week and they told me it had expired in February. They made no attempt to make any accommodation what so ever.
I think this is VERY POOR service. All they had to do was put an expiration date on the certificate and I never would have bought as there was no way I could have used because I live in chicago and knew that I would not be back before February. Provides very bad impression of Kansas City.

This place is great! The staff is very friendly. I get my eyelashes and eyebrows tinted by Mindy. She does a fantastic job,

What a charming and customer service oriented spa! I am a pedicure junkie and yesterday had one of the best services I have had in some time with Mindy, one of the owners.
She was fastidious in her work and I left with rejuvinated nails and smooth feet.
I also really loved the new polish she used, fast drying and long lasting. I have already booked with her and I booked a massage as a new client to take advantage of their promotion.

When you walk in to this hair salon, you a greeted by a very nice looking place with great service. The quality of the hair styling is great and you defiantly get your money’s worth. They offer a variety of services from hair styling to massages to pedicures. I would defiantly recommend this place to anyone looking for a friendly, well-​rounded spa to visit!

This is a great spa to do business with. Their phone number also has text capability, so making an appointment is easy if you’re not in a position to make a voice call. It is located in somewhat of an outdated strip center, however they have put the magic touch on it and have done a great update of their parcel… it clearly stands well above their neighbors for aesthetics. It’s very pleasing to the eye.
Jackie was my therapist. She did a fantastic job not only with the massage, but with maintaining a relaxed and serene environment. The audio selection was perfect for the occasion. The best part was that you couldn’t hear what was going on in the salon area during the massage.
Jackie did a short assessment to determine what areas needed to be focused on, and then delivered beautifully. She didn’t make small talk during the massage unless you spoke first. It was truly a great massage and relaxing experience. I highly recommend Blu Bird Spa and Jackie’s massage services.
2 thumbs up to the owner Michael and his staff. I’ll be returning for sure!

I tried out Blu Bird yesterday after having a pretty frustrating and expensive cut at a Lawrence salon. Mike took my call, scheduled me for the following day, and started with me right away despite my early arrival.
The salon is in a strip mall, so it’s easy to miss, but the inside is very cute, stylish and well-​thought-​out. I have pretty simple, long, straight hair, so I space out my cuts and need a stylist who’s interested in what I actually do with my hair, rather than experiment on me in some trendy way that looks cute for six hours. Mike was wonderful, and a great balance of respecting my wishes and sharing his own experience and insight.
I plan to go back and would recommend Mike to friends in the area.

Hair color was amazing! Mike is very professional and really listens to his clients. Convenient location and beautiful relaxing inside.

Ahhhhhhh. Shelbie at Blu Bird Spa gives an amazing massage! It has been a long time since I have had a massage this good. She strategically uses hot moist towels to loosen the muscles of the back and the feet. The back massage was just what I needed to soothe an aching lumbar region. Overall, my massage was just the right mix of deep muscle work to release the knots, and relaxation. Just perfect. I’m someone who rarely takes the time to get a massage, but after this experience, I was happy to book another appointment.
Blu Bird also offers bunch of other services including a full service salon, facials, waxing and manis/​pedis. The spa sits nestled in what appears to be a run-​down old strip mall at 83^rd and Metcalf, but don’t let outward appearances fool you. Inside is a nicely appointed relaxing space. Come a few minutes early for your first massage appointment as there’s a short form to be completed. Also, first-​time customers get their first one-​hour massage for $ 50.

I have been a loyal customer of Michael and Mindy for years because of their incredible talent and personalized service. When they opened their own spa, my commute became challenging, but when I moved even farther away, it was decision time: find a replacement, or drive 45 minutes. I chose to drive because no one makes my hair look more natural, youthful, and healthy than Michael (a rarity I found out after disastrous prior experiences) and Mindy turns my Gorbachev eyebrows into tamed accents for my eyes — nothing short of a miracle. Sure, it takes me a while to get there, but Michael and Mindy are worth it. Did I mention the spa is beautiful and a massage can work out the kinks from the long car drive???

I had been going to Mindy for all of my *erm* delicate waxing needs for the past several years. When I first started this type of waxing I tried a few different locations, and as far as I am concerned, Mindy is as good as it gets. She works quickly, yet has about as gentle of a touch as I have ever experienced. I feel incredibly at ease with her, and can’t imagine going elsewhere.
I am glad that Mindy and her husband set out on their own. Their place is located in the incredibly convenient (if a bit unattractive) strip mall right off of Metcalf. Regardless of the location, the inside has been remodeled INCREDIBLY. It is super cute and ultra chic.
Prices are reasonable. I haven’t yet tried getting my haircut by Mindy’s husband, but if he is anything like Mindy, I know I will be really happy.
