Amazing (and reasonable) Facials

by jennieb1986

I have been going to Nomi's for almost 3 years. My skin has been glowing the whole time so I guess I owe Naomi a rave review.

I had an amazing aesthetician in Seattle where I previously lived and I have to admit I was worried that I would find the same here for a reasonable price. I found that easily in Naomi.

Naomi is incredibly nice, very relaxed and easy to talk to. I usually like to zone out when getting any sort of spa treatment, but I always talk to Naomi during my facial. However, if you want to zone out, Naomi is very intuitive and will let you be without any chit chat.

I go about every 6 weeks for a facial and eyebrow wax. No matter what type of skin you have (I have referred a lot of friends here) you will be well taken care of and your skin will thank you. It's a relaxing, enjoyable experience and incredibly reasonable compared to the brand name spa's. If you're considering needing a facial, don't walk...run to Nomi.

I know some people might be weary about the location (for me it's a plus b/c I live in Potrero) but it's completely safe and parking is a snap.

Bonus: Nomi is open from 9AM-9PM Thursday to Saturday. This is great for me because I don't have to take time off from work or compete for the coveted Saturday morning appointments.

A true pleasure

by saritab

It is a treat to see Naomi for facials. The entire experience is relaxing and soothing. She has a gentle touch and a great way of making you feel pampered.

Fabulous facial in a personalized, relaxing atmosphere

by SusannahB

Amazing facial! I walked into this peaceful, clean space, and Naomi greeted me warmly. Naomi was thorough and nurturing, and was clearly attentive to my skin and what I needed. The building is right off 280 and parking is easy. I'd highly recommend Nomi Day Spa!

Waxing. Enjoyable. Can those words go together?

by BokharaLashi

I have really sensitive skin. I have tried waxing before and was rewarded with bruising all over. Now, five years later, my hair has became thicker and razors are much more expensive so I decided to try waxing again. I was very concerned about the experience so I researched all the spas on City Search. I was looking for a place that was going to give me personalized, friendly, professional service that would listen to my concerns and if I was lucky not bruise me in the end. I was immediately drawn to Nomi Day Spa because it was owned and operated by the same person who was going to take care of me- not some employee of a spa that didn't necessarily have a vested interest in my happiness and satisfaction. From setting the appoinment to getting stripped Naomi has been exactly what I was looking for- personal, friendly, professional and guess what? I didn't bruise!!! YAY! The fact that her spa is calming and inviting doesn't hurt either! Naomi's personal touch to her practice reminds me of how business' used to be- you know when you actually got above and beyond the service you expected because they actually cared? I never thought I would say this but I look forward to getting waxed!! The whole experience is actually enjoyable- thank you Naomi!!

• Pros: Service, Skill, Professionalism, Personality, Parking
• Cons: Not easily biked to, but a very quick (10 min) drive from my Noe Valley, Mission, Bernal location

Fabulous facials and expert eyebrow waxing!

by LGozurian

I have been going to Naomi for about 3 years now for both facials and eye brow waxes, and she is wonderful! She is really warm, professional, meticulous and knowledgeable. Her facials are excellent. She uses great products, but has never once pushed them on me, I had to ask her what she what I should try and it has made a huge difference with the look and texture of my skin. As for the eyebrow waxes, she is THE best I've gone to and won't go to anyone else now! She takes a lot of pride in her work. Also the place is warm, cozy and clean...very important to me!

• Pros: Easy parking, nice atmosphere, clean

Best Eyebrows

by missheidy

This is not your typical spa experience. Naomi is very personal and made me feel comfortable, especially with bikini waxes and the like. I especially favor her for doing a wonderful job on my eyebrows. It's been a while since I've had anyone wax my brows so I was forced to pluck them myself for some time... until now. Parking is no problem and I love that she's available early evenings.

• Pros: Quality service
• Cons: Only open few days a week

Potrero Hill spa spoils weekenders with customized facials and New-Age ambience.

by Gina Goff

In Short
This mellow spa, located off the beaten path, caters to the 9-to-5 crowd with a weekend-only operation. The small space, awash with earth tones, is helmed by a single esthetician-owner, who specializes in microdermabrasion and personalized facials. Her classic, European-style skin treatments often incorporates deep-pore cleansing and lymphatic drainage. Nutritional and life coaching are available in addition to massage, aromatherapy wraps, makeup application, full body waxing and colon hydrotherapy.

Definitely going Back!!

by kotorigem

So I went to Naomi today and she was great the space was really cool, very soothing and hip-earthy with calming music in the background - its way out in the hill, but Im definitely going back. She used a purple wax that hardened and didnt need a strip. It wasnt as bad as I expected it to be it hurt but not that bad. She didnt need to use the tweezers too much either. She was really funny too great personality. I highly recommend Naomi!

• Pros: quick, fairly painless, great service
• Cons: location

Naomi is great!

by heidih88

I approached my bikini wax with fear - I am a wimp. Naomi was so professional and competent, put me at ease right away. It was all over in a flash and I will certainly be back. Next time I'm going to try a facial, too...
