Best Skin Care In Santa Cruz

“I love the Nook! As a queer person I was having problems finding a place that is reasonably priced, nearby, listens to ‘no I really do want every color under the sun’, and knows Asian hair. I was told about the Nook when I was lamenting the fact that I was looking for an inclusive spot that fit the bill. I called and was matched with Myra. She is absolutely amazing. In addition to being amazing at styling, cutting (and a host in general), she was the first where the bleach didn’t end up giving me a dry scalp for a few days. Months later (need to go back soon!) I am still getting compliments on the color (I don’t mean 2 months, I mean I have been lazy and haven’t been in 6+ months)“

“Had an amazing facial with Elisa! I can't wait to go back. Her spa is comfortable and darling. Easy to get to as well. Elisa was very knowledgeable and educated. She know what my skin needed and was charming to work with.“

“Andrea was fabulous! Her space is clean and the vibe is fresh and earthy. We had a great conversation. She discussed every step of the clinical facial and i left feeling relaxed and refreshed. And my skin is absolutely glowing!“

“Danielle’s expertise in her field is unparalleled. Pair that with her incredible kindness and attention to detail, you’ll be hooked. Danielle has helped me love my skin for the first time in my life. She deeply cares about each person she works with and has the knowledge/experience to work wonders with your skin. I started out seeing her for brow wax and tint which I absolutely love from her. Quickly, I realised how amazing she is and started getting other treatments from her. Now she has been helping me with my skin for more than two years. She will build a customised skin care routine with you based on your individual needs and budget. Her treatments such as the customised Wild Beauty Facial or DMK Enzyme treatment will leave your skin feeling brand new and rejuvenated. She tweaks each treatment to the needs/wants of her clients so each time is truly a customised experience. Her energy work will leave you feeling calm and grounded. Highly recommend Wild Beauty Cosmetics if you want to love your skin and see real results!“

“Kelley is amazing! I have had many facials over the years and hers are top notch. She uses great products and equipment. I am not a fan of facials that only focus on massage and relaxation. With Kelley you get it all - massage, relaxation, and RESULTS!“

“From start to finish, Megan was a true professional. Atmosphere was perfect, my facial was amazing, she is so easy to talk to, and her skills were on point! I don't think I've ever actually seen my skin glow until after my appointment with Megan. 10/10 highly recommend.“

“I have seen Michelle many times over the course of a couple years. Most recently I got facials from her once a week for a couple months in light of a hormonal acne flare up. In those couple months my skin made so much more progress than it did from going to a dermatologist and using antibiotics and prescribed topicals. I stopped using those products and started using Michelles products that she makes herself. Her services, products and advice have led me to have clean skin in such a short amount of time, I am extremely grateful! Not only is she an expert at her craft, she is also hilarious and very fun to talk to. I always look forward to our convsersations and being in her energy. I couldn't recommend her more, thanks Michelle!“

“I love Sue's treatments and her products! My go-to lady for waxing. Her boutique always has wonderful products!“

“very happy with my hair, Abby did a great job! this is the best salon i’ve been to in Santa Cruz.“

“Erika is very professional and meticulous! She is fabulous at her art. So precise and got just the right colors mixed to bring my lips out with beautiful pigment matching my lipstick. My eyebrows look so natural. Next, eyeliner! Then ill be all set. I trust Erika and her expertise with my face!Services: Microblading“

“Amazing facials and massages with really thoughtfully selected products. Brenna really gets to know your skin and teaches you how to care for it. Not to mention the head, neck, and shoulder massage really is outta this world! Book your appointment, you will leave on cloud 9.“

“Janet gives the most exquisite facials of all time, I always leave there feeling like a million bucks with my skin glowing for weeks! I love letting Janet guide me to whatever treatments she feels my skin could use most. She’s obviously drinking from the fountain of youth herself ? so it’s easy to trust what she says is best. Plus every detail of her treatments and treatment room is so relaxing and wonderful. 10/10“

“I am seeing Jessica for my dermasweeps and I love how my skin is getting that golden glow. Many friends have told me that my skin is looking clearer than ever. Moreover, the esthetician JESSICA is extremely beautiful inside out. I appreciate the level of care and knowledge she extends while treating my face. Dermasweeps here are not harsh at all, I can vouch for this place! My skin felt so much smoother and cleaner each time. Overall, I will keep going to this clinic for years to come!“

“Owner and esthetician, Marie, is delightful and enormously experienced in all areas of skin care, including fabulous facials and permanent makeup. I can't recommend this lovely salon and it's owner highly enough! I've been seeing her for many years!“

“Sarah Grace is amazing. She combines her expertise with your wishes to create something beautiful!“

“I am so happy with my results from Nadya, she has transformed my skin from oily, acne prone skin to a beautiful clear complexion. Not only can she improve your complexion, she is a skilled aesthetician who knows all skin types and has a great anti-aging technique! I would completely recommend her, she is awesome and so worth it.“

“This was my first facial at this location. Due to covid I had not had a facial in 13 months and my skin showed it. Kathleen gave me an outstanding facial. She was thorough and I was impressed with the product line she uses. What was a wonderful plus was the massage to my feet and the having my hands treated with a rich cream and put into heated gloves. Kathleen was so professional and pleasant. She knows skin care well and answered any questions I had regarding products. The ambience here was lovely and very relaxing. My skin glowed after my facial! I will be a regular customer.“

“I have nothing but great things to say about the facial that I got here today. She does a wonderful job and I can’t wait to tell my family and friends.“

“Kristela is the best for brows!!! I originally had old micro blading from 2015 done in Koreatown LA that faded really bad. Kristela was able to work over and through it and did a combo microblade ombré shading. I am so happy with the results!!! She is worth every penny, because nothing is more important than your face. And brows are what frames your face. If you're in need of a glow up, just book an appointment with her, you won't regret it, she is a brow genius“

“Absolutely love this place!!!! Susy Asche is amazing!!!! Very professional & gentle. She knows what u need and hears out ur concerns, I will continue going to her for sure ?“

“I had MOHS Surgery & referred to Derm Essence for laser to refuse the scarring. I've had 3 treatments, one per month. Shilpa Vichare did a fantastic job reducing the scars. There was a noticeable difference after just 1 session & now l, after 3 treatments, it's barely noticeable.“

“Gayle at Body Resultlz is great. I received fantastic and kind loving care for my face and the products she uses are great quality and gentle products that my ultra sensitive skin loved! As an added bonus they smell heavenly. Gayle is quite knowledgeable and has tons of years in the skincare biz. Go treat yourself to a facial - your skin will look gorgeous.“

“Bianca Ceja did an amazing pedicure. It was absolutely the best I have ever had! The steam bath felt so good on these pregnant feet. She was so gentle, kind and highly skilled. A wonderful relaxing treatment and walked away with some cute pink toes. I'll definitely be back! Highly recommend Bianca!“

“Best facial experience I’ve ever had. From a swift and welcoming front desk check-in to a heavenly facial that has me feeling like a relaxed and glowing goddess… I booked an acne facial with Marissa and can’t wait to do it again! Highly recommend“

“Coco is amazing!!! It's my first time ever, yet she made me feel so comfortable and not feel embarrassed/shy about the whole process. She is efficient in her craftsmanship!♥️ I cannot thank her enough for giving me that 'confidence' I didn't know I have. See you in few weeks, Coco!“
