“I visited Elli Ro for my first ever lash extensions and couldn't be happier! I chose hybrid lashes which were a mix of classic and volume. Ebony was very professional and so sweet! I felt welcomed and comfortable in her space. The look of the salon is the perfect mix of glamour and fun. I would definitely recommend Elli Ro Beauty for all of your makeup and skincare needs. I can't wait to revisit and try more of her services!*I have also received the Fountain of Youth facial since my original review was written. The facial was very relaxing! I truly felt pampered and taken care of. The products used were very professional and high end. Ebony made sure to examine my skin before beginning the facial to ensure that each product was suitable for my skin which I appreciated!“
“Love, love, love, my new nails. Went in there for a full set. Walked out with perfect looking nails. I will definitely be recommending others to this salon and be coming back myself.“
“Cameron and Lauren are the very best at what they do! I've had facials and brow services with both over the years - they are incredibly down to earth and make you feel relaxed in their gorgeous space. I highly recommend!“
“I'm from Chicago, know nothing about the QC admittedly, & happened to get lucky enough to come across the Spa At The Hotel Blackhawk to get pampered before my wedding with my bridesmaids and new lady fam. The ladies at the Spa At The Blackhawk Hotel were great and made us look gorgeous!
On a side note, the mimosas didn't hurt, either!“

“Best spa I've been to! Took my sisters here as a bday treat and O.M.G. They had such a great time. We ran a bit late but they made sure we got what we had scheduled. So polite and kind about it. Thank you!“
“Desi is AMAZING!!! She is a great stylist. They use great products. Love my hair. Thanks Desi!!!“
“Let me start off by saying their business is legit. They care about quality. Jess is the owner and she will never let you not look amazing when walking out the door. Sonrisa is my girl down there and she is always so sweet and inviting. They talk to you like you’ve been their friend forever and they listen to exactly what you want done. This place is extremely clean and you are getting high end service in the quad cities.“
“I had an ultimate pampering salon experience. Amazing atmosphere and great hairdressers who love what they do and will make your hair look amazing. Hair products are good as well.“
“If i could give this salon more then 5 stars i would. Came in for a spa package as a birthday present. Raquel and Lizzy were fabulous. The lady that did my mani pedi (megan i think) was wonderful as well and did a fabulous job as well but I don't like the style vs an actual nail salon. This isnt the salons fault im just picky but for a basic mani pedi with nail polish this would be a good go to place. Will most definitely come back for another massage in the future. The atmosphere is welcoming. Every staff member was absolutely friendly.“
“I have had a couple of regular massage therapists who unfortunately moved away from the area. I made an appointment at The Healing Touch as a last minute, "I just need a massage, I feel like crap," type deal. I found The Healing Touch through a simple Google search. They had online booking, which is extremely helpful, easy, and my preferred method to make appointments.
When I arrived to the studio, it was very clean, well-decorated, quiet, professional and had a nice atmosphere. I was immediately greeted and checked in right away. I did not have to wait long before my therapist came out to meet me. During this brief wait, I took the time to really look around and try to relax. They had many different services to offer, as well as plenty of space and rooms for clients. It was very comfortable being there.
My appointment was with Laurence. Oh, man. What a guy! As he approached, he shook my hand and introduced himself. He was very kind, approachable and a great listener. He genuinely seemed to want to know where I wanted the focus of the massage to be, areas of pain and any additional requests. He, of course, walked me through the normal prep of getting a massage and welcomed any questions at any point.
During the massage, he would touch base to see how the pressure level was and if there were any concerns on my end. His communication about what he was doing and/or what he noticed about my muscles was very knowledgeable, professional, and well executed. Though he said he was newer to his career, he fooled me. I would have guessed he had been doing this for decades! Laurence did not just go through the motions with a standard, generic massage. He did a wonderful job of identifying problem areas (that I may not have even known were problems!) and working those problem areas out. He would ask a lot of questions to make sure he fully understood my physical activities to have the full picture of why I had tension or issues where I did. The massage was completely custom; I have been to many places where they say, "customized massages," but follow a very structured, "same old, same old" choreography. Laurence did not. He used varying levels of pressure where he felt appropriate to work out what he noticed. He worked very hard to make sure I felt my best coming out of that massage. It is very evident he puts his heart into what he does and genuinely likes helping others when they are not feeling their best. Laurence has a special talent for massage therapy that cannot be taught. His talent paired with the knowledge and genuine care makes him the best massage therapist I have ever had!
Thank you, Laurence and The Healing Touch! I appreciate you!“
