blush a day spa

10/09/2008 Posted by wondergirl2

I've always loved my treatments at blush. The owners are adorable and brows and skin has never looked better but I had to write a review for Leah because I have traveled all over and Leah gave me one of the best massages that I've ever had. Dolores recommended to have a 90 minute because she said that Leah is very intuitive and can tune into what your body really needs but likes to spend extra time on your "kinks". She was right! 90 minutes was perfect! Leah, you're incredible and I will be back to see you soon.

Pros: very charming spa and staff

I was recommended to blush by a friend who travels from S.F. once a month to see the owner - who is one of the sweetest people you will ever meet. I had lost someone very close to me this year and Dolores just gave me literally the best, most healing facial I've ever had. She treated me to some sort of light therapy that was sooooo relaxing! Her heart comes through in her treatments. I bought some emerginC and epicuren products which I love! Girl, you're a genius - my skin looks incredible and I get compliments all the time. I will be back!

Pros: 5 start treatments and service

My friends & I went there as part of a bridal shower celebration for our friend. Everything was nice at first, I even received a phone call stating that they were running 20 mins late that day so we got there when they were ready for us. I had a great massage from Mary, who got all the knots and aches out! Unfortunately, my friend (the bride) had a nice but shorten facial with Dolores. We were all scheduled for 90 minutes of service, however my friend had only 70 minutes! When we asked Dolores, she stated that my friend had really nice skin and didn't need any type of extraction. When we pointed out that they advertised the session to be 90 minutes, Dolores got very defensive & started saying that we were late & that she did extra treatment on my friend. When I mention that I received a voicemail from the staff earlier stating that they were running late, Dolores pretty much lost it. She started yapping about how she was trained by the best in the world & that her service is world renown, how we don't appreciate good service... etc. My poor friend can't even get a word in because Dolores was constantly cutting her off! I'm not sure if Dolores had a bad day or simply bad customer service, either way she came across looking really horrendous. One interesting note, Dolores had taken my payment for the massage and later another staff pointed out to her that she charged the wrong amount. Her husband James was really accomodating & he was trying to find a solution to make everybody happy. However, even after James solved the issue, Dolores still had to vent and have her last words! Basically we left after that since there is no point reasoning with her! EEEK! UPDATE: Dolores, stop posting lies! Citysearch has a coupon for $10 off good until 3/27/2009 and we did not tip only $5! For my massage I tipped 20%. Plus, it was YOU who took my card & charged the wrong amount, which your own staff told you so!! STOP LYING!! YOU MADE MISTAKES & BLAMES OTHER FOR WHAT YOU DID! LIAR!!

Pros: Good massage

Cons: Really small spaces, rude owner who lies!!!

I never thought my eyebrows could look so good! I have been driving from Marin every 3 weeks to have my eyebrows shaped by Dolores. The last few people I had do them butchered them! I didn't even realize this until D showed me what the shape should look like. And she only charged me every other time I came while they were growing in! They also have lots of cute earrings, bracelets - I always buy my gifts there now because its so cute and reasonable. My aunt bought me a gift certficate for a facial - can't wait!

Pros: everyone is really sweet and helpful

Cons: wish it was closer to Marin

There is too much to say about blush and JAC hair gallery to fit into this tiny space. David, Monique and the owners made my sister's wedding day so special! The spa and salon were both very busy and there was even another wedding going on the same day but they made my sister feel like she was the most important person in the world on her day. David is the best - everyone told my sister (and all of us) how georgous her updo was and her makeup was perfect (thanks to Dolores). David, Monique and Dolores had all of us looking like models, but the best part was - they are absolutely charming and professional. I've never been treated so well in a spa or hair salon. The owners both catered to me and our family & bridesmaids, set up a table for us to bring some goodies and Dolores' adorable husband was chatting with everyone and making mimosas for all the girls. He was so sweet to my mom! We had a blast!!! David - thank you, thank you, thank you and Monique, all of the girls thank you too. Love you guys!!

Pros: David - you are the best

what can I say about my favorite spa and hair salon in the world and some of my favorite people? The other day I was getting my brows shaped and a woman came in with a request for a donation for a silent auction to raise money for a young boy whose medical bills were piling up. Dolores listened to the story and asked one of the therapists to write out 2 gift certificates for spa treatments - one for the silent auction and one for the boy's mom. These people, everyone that works at blush and JAC, are just the most genuine, caring people ever and it just makes me crazy that anyone could ever, ever say anything but this about them. So nurturing, so caring, so sweet.....

Pros: generous, sweet

My husband and I just moved to town. I made an appointment for a bikini and leg wax but couldn't find a babysitter. The owner told me not to worry and to bring my baby with me. I was shocked...the owners are so cute and nice. Dolores and James watched my son while I was getting my treatments - that is first class caring about your clients! While I was there, another client came in for her brows with her 3-year old daughter and told me that her daughter loves coming to blush to visit Dolores and James. Okay, so not that I will bring my baby to a day spa everyday while other people are trying to relax but as a new mom in a new town, it is so great to know that there are people in town like Dolores and James. Thank you - Melanie.

Pros: friendly, sweet, professional

A few weeks ago my daughter brought me to Sonoma for my birthday. We stayed at Macarthur Place which was so charming but she had heard great things about blush so she took me there for a facial. Dolores treated me to a complimentary light therapy treatment with my facial when I told her that i was going out for dinner for my birthday. I've never had such a georgous facial - her delicate hands are simply magic and it was the best facial massage I've ever experienced and I have had facials all over the world! She wrapped my feet in warm towels and then gave me a marvelous foot massage. When I went out that night, my friends were all dying to know what I did because my skin was glowing and so firm! Sorry Dolores - but I didn't want to give away my secret but now I'm writing a review so everyone knows how wonderful you are...

Pros: wonderful place for a facial

Okay Delores...you did it again! You always find the best people! My girlfriends and I come every year from the east bay and I'm never disappointed. You know my fave treatment is the copacabana and this last time I had Leah. Without a doubt, she gave me one of the best massages that I ever had! I can't wait to come back. Ali was such a cutie - loved my facial too. And, I still don't know how you and James stay in business with all your generosity. My girlfriends were floored that you gave us all complimentary brow shaping as a gift for having the spa party at blush. God bless you and many blessings to James, your family and your business. I will see you soon - xoxo Kate

Pros: Copacabana treatment is amazing

Cons: too far from the east bay to come everyday

blush is the best!! and Delores and the girls that work there are too cute! They all go out of their way to pamper me. Delores' husband always plays with my baby when he is there and holds her so that she doesn't fuss. They are the sweetest people! My whole family buys gift certificates for each other.

Pros: first class
