Dedicated customer

by eggiecc

I have known the owner, Lillie Hott, of this spa for years and was absolutely thrilled when she finally opened her own place. I have never had any one do the through job that she does with either facials or waxing. I now live in Denver, Colorado and whenever I am in town visiting I make plans to get waxing done. She is very comfortable with this service and as I have moved away from California I have come to discover how important this quality is. Lillie makes you feel comfortable as well with such a personal service but she also does a very through job, which is what you are paying for anyway! Her facials are also very relaxing and rejuvenating. Her dedication to her craft is commendable and I miss having her around! I highly recommend seeing her or anyone at her spa for services. It would certainly be a wonderful place to visit regularly or simply for a relaxing experience while on vacation!

• Pros: best waxing and facials
• Cons: I live out of state now

Save your money...

by NotKnown

This place was personalized but very unprofessional. Good for massage or facial only -not good for an entire spa day. My friend and I were there for a full day spa -and we did not get our money's worth. There were only two people there the entire time and we spent over $600 -it took approx SEVEN hours to get an 1hr 1/2 massage, 30 minute facial, 30 minute body scrub, manicure and pedicure. We had to wait while the person finished up to get my services done -when we booked all day. As people walked in the front door -they had to stop my facial to assist the person that came in. Very unprofessional! The foot spa that they did is something that I could have done at home -no nail polish choices -nothing! We sat on the floor as the work was being done....I can go on and on...

I relied on the reviews from here which is why we went for a full service...for the amount we spent we deserved WAY better service.

• Cons: Does not look like a spa...when I saw the building I thought "what did I get myself into?"

Very personalized service

by Jaqwee28

I was referred to Lillie by my previous "wax girl" when she moved away. Lillie taught her what they do not teach you in school. You see you can not just look in the phone book for a person that does "Full Monty" aka "Playboy" wax. It is very personal and you MUST feel comfortable with your "waxer". I immediately felt comfortable, Lillie started the conversation and we talked like we knew each other for years. I have been going to Dolce Vita for about a year and will continue as long as neither one of us move! If you are presently waxing the delicate areas of your body and need to make a change or considering taking the plunge I HIGHLY suggest you give her a call. A little education here, there are several different kinds of wax to be used in different applications, she uses the "hard wax" accordingly. TRUST ME it makes a difference. Beleive me when I tell if you are afraid to take the step to "be totally clean" this is the place to go, there is no awkwardness, 100% professional, fun but professional. One last thing........once you do it you will be hooked for life.

• Pros: CLEAN! 100% Professional -Beautiful Decor-Friendly Staff-After work appts available!
• Cons: Can't think of one!
