“If I could give Afterglow Oasis 10 stars, I would!! Today was my first appointment at AO, I got the Bespoke facial, back facial & dermaplaning. Everything exceeded my expectations I highly recommend this business to anyone looking for a skincare services in the DMV! I drove an hour from northern VA and am so glad I did! From the beginning of my services to the end, the customer service was OUTSTANDING and the care she took with my skin was top tier!! I'm telling all my friend about AO & will be back for future services. The business owner took time to explain everything to me, she was personable, knowledgeable & professional. I loved everything abput AO and wish this business nothing but the best!!“
“I received a wonderful 60 minute massage with aromatherapy from Mya! From the moment I stepped inside the building, I was made to feel very tranquil and relaxed. As for the massage, Mya ensured I was comfortable throughout the whole experience. Her technique left my body feeling amazing, and she knew exactly what I needed!“
“Angela was too good!<br>I feel great , and refreshed !<br>Thanks again!<br>Place is super clean and front desk is lovely !“
“I recently had the Gentlemen’s Facial & Beard Treatment at V’La Von. The office is clean and welcoming, with bright lights creating a pleasant atmosphere. Valorie, the esthetician, took her time and explained each step of the treatment, ensuring I had no issues with the products used. The extractions were painless, which was a stark contrast to my past experiences. She expertly used a combination of manual extractions, a skin spatula, and a pore vacuum hydrofacial tool. I'll definitely keep booking appointments with her.“
“This location is AMAZING! I’m always greeted immediately, checked in and seen by my specialist in minutes. My Wax Specialist Amina is SO AWESOME! She is extremely professional, knowledgeable and patient. She gets every hair, every time and ensures that I’m educated on the proper way to care for my skin in between appointments. Ask for Amina! You won’t be disappointed!!!!!“
“I got massage today by Alicia and it was amazing. From the customer service to the playlist to the massage I was literally in heaven. I purchased a membership and will credibly be back. This is the best spa experience I’ve ever had.“
“Jenna is just awesome, period! She keeps learning new things and always bringing the better options to me!“
“I'm getting laser hair and electrolysis treatments here with Deidra, and I have nothing but positive things to say. First of all, the entire business is super Trans friendly. Deidra herself is super nice and makes your entire time there feel relaxed and chill. On top of that I've seen awesome results so far. I can't recommend this place (and Deidra!) enough, especially for Trans folks who are looking for great results in hair removal!“
“Jhovonnah was very thorough in explaining what she was doing and took great care to address my needs during the appointment. I would highly recommend!“
“Nina is phenomenal!!! So gentle so personal and so caring to your needs.<br>A friend referred me and now I am referring others to her.<br>I went in for my calf muscle and upper body tension on my left side. When I walk in I had a huge lump on my left shoulder due to stress, when I walked out it was gone with no pain at all. She make you feel at home and I will never go to any other person for a message ever. She is a keeper ❤️“
“I’ve been going to Javan for about a year and have seen a marked change in my skin. I’ve struggled with adult acne throughout my 20s and first couple years of my 30s. Ever since incorporating clear and brilliant treatments especially, the acne has dramatically disappeared. Things that used to break out my skin, like sugar and alcohol, don’t seem to anymore. I haven’t changed my diet, and my stress level hasn’t changed either. I know the causes of acne are many, but it's undeniable that the treatments at Javan have helped my skin.<br><br>Donna in particular has been amazing: so kind, knowledgeable, tailors treatments to my skin, and never pushes me to get services or products I don’t need. I’ve been using several of the products Javan sells and really like them—especially the Phyto-C B5 and O-Live gels. I still use my cheaper Differin gel at night and combine with products from Javan during the daytime. My self-confidence has increased, and I use much less foundation/tinted moisturizer than I used to. I know facials are an investment. If you have the means, I highly recommend Javan. ❤️“
“First visit with her today and I’m happy. Quandra explains her plan of care for you, based off your skin condition. Her professionalism is outstanding. I’m looking forward to seeing the progress of my skin, now that I’ve found her to guide me.“

“I love Moxee!!! The vibe is cool and the haircuts and color are professional. Camille listens carefully to what I want and the end result always exceeds my expectations. She helped me transition from brunette to my natural gray. Wit's her expertise, it was painless and looked great the whole way through. Highly recommend!“
“I had my first facial with Denise following a consultation and it was great! I'm learning so much about my skin and skin care and I left with glowing skin. I'm confident that under Denise's care and regular appointments I will meet my skin goals.“
“FANTASTIC massage and facial! My skin already looks and feels more amazing after the one facial and the massage was out of this world! Thank you for such an amazing experience ??“
“My first time experiencing Brandi’s amazing hands. I fell all the way to sleep. Top tier massage. Not only did I feel relaxed but I had been hurting for about two weeks now. Her communication with me was also amazing because I was able to explain to her what my body was feeling rather than having to try and figure out the words to use to write it down.Even the conversation we had after we were done made me feel like a family member. What a way to start experience your first time. I’ve had plenty of experiences with massages before and this is my top 3 favorite massages.Thanks Brandi you gained a client for life.“
“Wow. Just WOW. Juliana knows what she is doing!! I’m not going to say that my waxing experience was completely painless, because let’s be real I have thick Italian hair. BUT what I can say is that after waxing for years this was by far my most pleasant waxing experience. There were times I was shocked at how little it hurt. Juliana takes her time and ensures that she gets every last hair. She is a gem and I’m so glad that I found her!“
“I’ve been talking this place up all over Reddit and to all my friends, so my review here is overdue! Ashley is phenomenal. I could go on forever, but I’ll try to hit the high points.<br><br>First off, the work she’s been doing with my masseters has changed my life. I’ve done years of physical therapy, muscle relaxers, sports massages, chiropractors, pain specialists, all of it. And I resisted getting neurotoxins (Botox, Dysport, Xeomin, etc.) because they’re expensive. But one day I looked at how much I spent in a year on all these things and compared that to what it costs to maintain these muscles at Aiyana. In order to not scare you, let me just say that these injectables are WAY more affordable than all the other things I did. And they help with problems I didn’t think I had an option of fixing!! I was very close to breaking all my molars before I started these treatments - not anymore. I sleep better. My ears aren’t ringing randomly for no reason. I’m able to relax at work more (and that’s saying something). The only regret I have about these injectables is that I didn’t start sooner. Truthfully, that’s it.<br><br>I didn’t take this decision to start lightly because once you start, it’s something you need to be able to maintain. My hairstylist recommended Ashley, so a long time ago I started following her on Instagram and checking out the work she was doing and what kind of business she was running. There are lots of injectors to choose from in the general DMV, so when I decided I wanted to get some injectables in 2019, I started looking around at the options. (Spoiler alert, I ended up with Ashley at Aiyana!) Way back then, I started to get a feel for the kind of work she does and the kind of things she cares about. It took years of Instagram posts and stories and Reddit digging on places in other areas of the world. And this is where I was sold on Ashley.<br><br>I’ve seen a lot of injectors say things like, “your injector has to be honest with you,” and blah blah blah, but a lot of the injectors in the DMV aren’t producing results that align with my expectation of the outcome of that vision. Ashley is REALISTIC. But don’t take it from me - look at the work she’s done. She’s maximizing on all her clients’ existing beauty, which is exactly what the best injectors do. Other injectors in the area sometimes leave people looking older, puffier, more “done up,” etc. Ashley doesn’t work that way. Don’t get me wrong, she wants her clients to be happy, but she is so careful with talking you out of something she thinks you might not love the results of. (A lot of MDs could take some notes from her bedside manner, just saying.)<br><br>Another thing - my makeup looks better and I feel more comfortable all around because I’ve been getting hyperhidrosis treatments for my face too. I can’t tell you how lovely it is to be sweating in the summer without chugging my own sweat.<br><br>I’ll need to update this review - not because I’m writing this prematurely (I’ve been seeing her for 3 years now!!) - but because she is so thoroughly amazing that I can’t put it all together at once. And she remembers so much about me even though I’m there every few months.<br><br>In short, Aiyana Atelier is the real deal. Ashley is a gem who I can say has genuinely improved my life. I am SO grateful to have found her (and all my friends who have gone would say the same thing!!)<br><br>P.S. if you’ve made it this far, the only person planning things more in advance than Ashley is Taylor Swift. Ashley runs awesome deals a few times a year, and she plans them years in advance too. :)“
“Absolutely recommend if you are looking for a relaxing experience. The facial and massage were out of this world, I’ll definitely be back!“
“The most relaxing spa experience I’ve ever had! Pat was so kind and very talented. I left feeling completely rejuvenated.“
“My husband and I both came in, me for botox and my husband fir his first facial ever. Melissa and Dani were both amazing! They have magic hands. My husband was so rejuvenated and relaxed he already scheduled his next appointment. Highly recommend this spa, it is clean and gorgeous and the staff are top notch.“
“I always enjoy my massages at Purity Spa! Vadym is always great, and I feel so refreshed right after.“
“Wikanda (Wiki) gave me an excellent facial this morning! She was very informative and gave good advice for how to improve my skin care routine at home.“
“I had my first appointment with Quita & had an amazing body waxing experience! She was professional, quick, and made me feel completely at ease. The salon space was clean & her technique was very sanitary. Her attention to detail was impressive & I left the salon feeling confident and refreshed. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a professional and pleasant waxing experience. I did request additional services since she didn’t have an appointment immediately after me & she graciously accommodate me. Quita was even kind enough to check on me afterwards since I have highly sensitive skin. My experience was worth every penny! I’ll definitely be going back.“
