Esencia Salon And Spa

Great service , Leyla does an excellent job, all staff are very friendly !!!

I first came to this salon because it is very close to my home, and it's quickly become my new favorite place. Michelle's establishment is absolutely wonderful, the quality of services excellent. Lilly's pedicures are fantastic and the color lasts literally for weeks without any chipping or issues - I work on my feet all day, so this is really impressive to me! Vickie's standards for nail styling are VERY high - her attention to detail I've rarely seen, and she does a beautiful job every time. Jessica is amazing - two of my daughters and my son and I have all had our hair cut and/or colored and styled by her. We all have different hair types yet each one of us has been SO impressed with the results each time. She also gives excellent recommendations for product. It takes a lot for me to trust/recommend a salon to friends and family, but this place absolutely warrants it. My family and I will be coming here for many years I'm sure, and I will continue to recommend to family and friends. Thank you so much ladies!!

Took my granddaughter for her first mani/pedi. Staff were great, and made her feel special.. she loves her beautiful nails

Nails by Alexis. They turned out perfectly how I wanted, very very friendly talkative staff. Greeted many customers by name. And very gentle with my nails and hands which is very important to me :) will be going back.

I had my hair cut and styled by Michelle and my experience was AMAZING! She took her time and I felt so pampered, she made every effort to make me feel comfortable and listened exactly to what I wanted. I love my new look and will definitely be going back ☺️

Very disappointed with my experience here. The nail tech I had was young and inexperienced. She did not have her tools charged and admitted she had never done acrylic nail training. She mostly did hand filing instead of using the machine, which was time consuming and hurt. Her brush was hardened and she asked another tech to borrow a brush. Afterwards, the other tech brought her a bottle of brush cleaner which my tech exclaimed she had never used and didn't even know existed. She was very sloppy and all the nails are uneven. The tips of my left had are so thin that within two days some have broken, whereas my right hand nails are too thick to use. I had one broken nail when I came in, she said no problem she could fix it, and it is still broken (see photo). Furthermore, there was a very limited selection of colours and the paint is peeling off already (approximately 2 days later). I paid $58 for this. It was worth no more than $10 and the tech really should have had a trainee badge.I will never return for nail services.

I have two experiences here and everyone seems nice, but my second experience made me write a bad review. My first experience here was perfect with Jessica as my hairstylist, but my second one couldn't be more flawed. In my second experience, I called them in advance if they have walk-ins and they said yes. But they made me book an appointment when walked-in. My hairstylist didn't do the faded pixie that I wanted with my hair and she did an undercut instead. I showed her a reference picture and what she did to my hair is nowhere near the picture. I like how the undercut suits me, but I am disappointed. It wasn't what I wanted and expected. It was not worth the money that I paid for.I don't usually care for writing a review for these kind of things, but I don't want anyone else to be surprised when they get a poor service from Selina.

Love my nails! I always get dark colors but this was such a nice change. I can't stop staring at the sparkly nail! The staff is so friendly. I have been there twice now, once as walk in and another as a same day book in. They got my mom in for her hair, tinting and nails in last minute too. Love that they are flexible! My only complaint is that I had to go home and file the polish off my fingers a little. My thumb nail was very short beforehand but the polish on top created a strange sharp spot I had to fix. No biggie though, I will still recommend my friends and family to go here!

This is the most amazing salon & spa in Calgary by far! Michelle and her staff go the extra, extra effort to make you feel valued. They are not only current on trends but great on value as well. Check them out you won't be disappointed!! I am one very happy customer!

Made an appointment for shellac nail polish change on toes and was told cost would be 30.00. My toes nails got trimmed and no mention of extra cost. Time to pay for service and was an extra 25.00 added because of nail trimming. Will never go back and cost is ridiculous just for a nail polish change. Staff unfriendly and place was not clean looking.
