AvantGard Spa - San Carlos (CA)

Stephanie Strozier This spa is truly exceptional in both cleanliness and professionalism. It’s almost amusing to see so many businesses now advertising their commitment to hygiene—as if it’s something new. The estheticians here have been practicing the highest standards of cleanliness long before the pandemic because it’s simply the right way to operate. From the moment you walk in, everything is pristine—from the inviting exterior and welcoming interior to the bathrooms (which, in my opinion, are always a true reflection of a business’s dedication to cleanliness). Patty, the esthetician extraordinaire, is phenomenal. Her expertise and dedication to her craft immediately put you at ease. I trust her recommendations without hesitation because I know she only suggests what’s genuinely best for my skin. Patty goes above and beyond to build relationships with her clients, taking the time to understand your unique needs and tailoring treatments for the most beneficial results. Her honesty, professionalism, and skill are unmatched—I never question the value of her services because she consistently exceeds expectations. If you’re looking for a spa that values cleanliness, integrity, and expertise, look no further. Patty and the entire team have set a gold standard for what a spa experience should be.

Yachen Sun The ladies here are really skilled, provides great service, and the manicure / pedicure last a really long time! (My gel nails had barely a chip after a whole month)

Miguel DeTrinidad Truly Relaxing Experience at Stress Relief & Beauty! I recently visited Stress Relief & Beauty, and it was nothing short of amazing! From the moment I walked in, I was greeted with a peaceful ambiance, soothing scents, and a warm welcome from the friendly staff. The massage was pure perfection—just the right amount of pressure to melt away all my stress and tension. The facial left my skin feeling soft, radiant, and refreshed. Every treatment was done with care and professionalism, making me feel completely pampered. The spa itself is spotless, beautifully decorated, and designed for total relaxation. The calming music and aromatherapy enhanced the overall experience, making it truly unforgettable. I left feeling completely renewed, both physically and mentally. If youre looking for the perfect place to unwind and rejuvenate, I highly recommend Stress Relief & Beauty! I cant wait for my next visit.

Alessandra Jimenez Amazing service and price. The quality of the service is great. Very friendly staff. Business has been open in this location for years. I go everything two weeks.If I could give 10 stars I would. This place is the best Ive been able to find. Prices are very reasonable. The staff is super friendly and amazing on what they do. Being a guy and getting the nails done, most places do a half job, not here, I feel like I get a great service. They even have a little tool box with your name on it. ;)

Hannah Garcia Bia is so great! Her nail designs are beautiful and she give excellent customer service. I always look forward to my next appointment!

Alejandra Ruiz So good i love the work!!! Tony was so quick and sweet. He did exactly what i needed for a good price. Dont sleep on this place.

Minda Newhouse The gel lab is my new happy place. Their customer service is unmatched. I broke my foot and they literally helped me get in out of the salon and moved my car for me. With my nails I never dreamed I could have had this much growth and happy nail beds but they mad it happen (this after 3 appointments with gel builder). But more than anything I love the community, the sisterhood, the laughs, and general vibes. If you live in the Bay Area you are dumb if you go anywhere else.
