Karma Salon & Spa

Maggie is phenomenal — always knows what I need! Great stylist — great colorist — awesome person! I love coming to Karma !!

My no chip manicure start chipping the next day! Went back no repair it, start chipping again after 5 days!!!

I enjoy seeing Maggie for haircut and color. She takes her time to get exactly what I want with both. She is fun to talk to and does a great job. I have seen her several times and will be going back.

I am new to the area. This is an AVEDA salon and the only one I have been to in the area that has given me a AVEDA quality men’s cut. I have gone to several other salons in the area and have been amazed how poor the training was in cutting men’s hair. I get my hair cut by Maggie. Tip her well.

After trying multiple salons in the area, I finally found one that could do my highlights the way I wanted with just a few lowlights and toner to balance out the color.
I have to admit that I only go to one stylist (Maggie) since I think she is the best. I went to another hair stylist at the same salon once who way over-​processed my highlights and damaged my hair, but luckily they left and do not work at this salon anymore.
I have also gotten massages and facials at this salon that were good. The facials can vary on the type of skin and to address comments by other clients, if you ask for or agree to extractions in a facial, be prepared that these hurt and are harsh on your skin. If you have sensitive skin, just decline this option and ask for sensitive skin products.

For the basic (and the word basic does not do justice) facial, Allison is my new go-​to person. Humble she is, as well as amazing, incredible and wonderful — all understatements.
The Elemental Facial that I purchased resulted in above and beyond customer satisfaction. She worked and worked and worked on my face, and then she pampered and pampered and more than pampered me. I am buying the discounted six package.
This was by far the best facial i have had … And i have had Ritz Hotel and Four Seasons Hotel facials … And wow was this comparable and then some!
Do it! Try it once! The decide for yourself…

Never had a bad cut or color at Karma! I always get a lot of complements after getting a my hair cut. And if you are looking for a salon for your bridal party this place is it. They did an amazing job with my wedding party, it was so fun and everyone looked so beautiful. Couldn’t be happier with the services at Karma ;)

I am only leaving one star because I had to. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have left any.
I went to the salon for three years but will never go back. They ruined my hair with a treatment the stylist practically forced me to have. Obviously, money is more important to them than loyalty.

The worst experience I’ve ever had in a salon! The price I was given on the phone was NOT the price I was given after I got my hair done. They did NOT tell me to wash my hair prior so it was a little «greasy» because I was getting it curled. On the phone they specifically said to leave it because I was getting it washed there. And when I got there with greasy hair they were surprised and mad because now the «curls wouldn’t hold». I got it washed in the salon and it was greasy even after it was washed. Took the hair stylist 25 min to dry my hair because the dryer was on low (I was in a time crunch). The hair stylist did NOTHING I asked and seemed inexperienced when she couldn’t do a simple braid in the back of my hair. Left with my hair half done because she was so rude and unprofessional. Went home and showered and did my hair MYSELF!!! Staff was so rude and I could hear them talking about me. Never in my life will I ever ever ever go there again or recommend anybody i ever know. Worst salon experience of my life. HORRIBLE!!!

Had a Groupon for a no chip manicure and regular pedicure. Had to wait 2 weeks for an appointment, had to wait 15 minutes while the manicurist was talking on the phone to someone I assumed was the owner regarding a missing nail polish (really???) The variety of regular nail colors was sorely lacking but the pedicure was OK. The no chip manicure took a long time (but that’s to be expected and looked OK when I left) a day later it was obvious that the manicurist did nothing with my cuticles and the nail polish did not even go to the bottom and sides on the nail. Had the services on Weds, by Sat my nails were starting to chip I finally got to call them today and told them and the response was oh we can do a soak off tonight around 5:45 or 6! Totally inconvenient time for me but that’s all they offered… SORRY NO… I will never go here again — such a waste of over 2 hours of my time and I don’t have a lot of time to spare…

They are good, didn’t seem very friendly though, prices seem a bit much. Only time I would go to them is if I have a gift card.

I went to karma today for the first time and I loved it! The salon was near and new. The receptionist was nice and helpful. My stylist Sarah was amazing. Super helpful not pushy or anything. I’ll definitely be coming back here

I had a Groupon for a facial here which I got done last week. This would be my first facial ever, and having been told by my friends that I would be leaving with my face severely irritated for at least a day I was a bit worried.
I scheduled my appointment for a weekday morning, the receptionist was super friendly and got me coffee while I waited for the esthetician to be ready. The esthetician was also VERY friendly. she took the time to explain everything to me so that I was aware of what was being used and going on. It was really relaxing and I couldn’t say enough nice things about the staff that I met.
The only thing I could say that wasn’t the best was I felt like I was expecting more from the facial. I think I was expecting for the extractions to have a more drastic difference from before and after the facial. I could be wrong, since this was my first facial ever, and maybe I was expecting more because I’ve never had one done. Nothing against the esthetician because I’m sure she would have done more had I mentioned my concerns. I tend to keep my comments to myself.
Either way, I would recommend Karma for a relaxing facial with a very kind staff to accommodate you with your needs.

I went in for a facial purchased from Groupon. Allison performed it. My face was horrible when I left, and, even a day later, my face still looks horrible. My face is red and is marked.
The products used were not the real problem (though those were nothing special) — the method of extraction was. The extraction method used (far too strong for my skin) actually bruised it and it is red and pinched from where Allison performed extractions. I didn’t notice this until I got into my car last night to leave the location. I am still upset. Allison should have observed what she was doing as she did it and realized that it was too much for my skin and stopped.
I am not a newbie. I have facials at certain salons in Chicago and in certain North Shore suburbs– Elizabeth Arden (Deerfield), Michael Anthony (Chicago-​another Aveda salon), Jonathan Breitung (Chicago– great salon and spa), all total, approximately 4 – 6 times per year and each esthetician performed extractions at each of these spas. This is the first time the extractions harmed my skin. Clearly it is the person performing the facial and their level of skill. Just as important– the products being used are not specifically for the face (Aveda beautifying oil?- I use that on my body).
I agree with other posters that it is nice when a facial incorporates a massage, etc.- but when I book a facial– it is the facial itself and the appearance after the facial that I judge. If I am at a salon for a facial, it had better leave me looking AT LEAST as good as when I walked in-​NOT WORSE. If the service provider can’t do that, you’ve actually caused harm.
The Groupon is in the garbage and I won’t darken the door of this place again. Another lesson learned– buy one Groupon service– not multiples, if you don’t know the salon. HORRIBLE. Beware.

I have been a loyal Karma customer since they first opened their doors. I found Karma through my stylist, who I have followed to various salons for 8 years. I have always been incredibly happy with my stylist and the treatments I have received at Karma, such as hair cuts, color, facials, waxing, manicures, pedicures, and massages.
While I was incredibly disappointed when I heard that my longtime stylist would no longer be working at Karma, the manager, Journi, has done a wonderful job picking up where my previous stylist left off. She has done a phenomenal job both on hair cuts and color. I have no doubts that I will continue to be a Karma customer for a long time. Customer service has always been fantastic, as all staff are warm, attentive, and truly fun people to be around. You are in capable hands at the moment you walk in the door. Promise.

This place is fabulous! Very clean, everyone I’ve interacted with has been very, very nice. Went yesterday for a facial with Allison and OMG! She started with a face steam to open the pores, did a lot of extractions (I’ve been very lazy lately with my skincare routine); then followed up with a fabulous facial and masque. And, while waiting for the masque to set, she did a great massage of feet, neck, shoulders, arms and hands. It was heaven!
Going back in three weeks for another facial with Allison. I need to look at some of the other services as well.
Only downside is that Karma is in a strip mall that you can only get into when driving north on route 45. (Of course I’m going south!) :) But soooo worth having to do a U-​turn (legal).

My haircut and highlights are fine looking, the receptionist and makeup lady were especially nice, the only problem was my stylist, Carrie, she never smiled or laughed, she was very hard to converse with and I felt uncomfortable the whole appointment. She seemed very uninterested and perhaps tired or that’s her personality. Their sinks for hair washing was also the most uncomfortable, the next day the back of my head and neck were bruised. Carrie also never asked me if the water was a good temp and never asked if I was comfortable. One of the worst salon experiences I’ve had in a while.

For waxing RaeAnn is excellent. Painless and she does exactly what I want. She is also super nice.

I’m on love with Karma! I discovered this on a Groupon and cannot wait until I go back! The woman who did my facial was simply amazing. I was relaxed and looked great for days following. I also loved the discount/​punch card they gave me. I am definitely going to be going there agin. The atmosphere is quiet and soothing. The staff is super friendly. The prices are a bit high for the area, but with the discount card they are reasonable.

Stress, tension and muscle aches are a thing of the past moments after I walk into Karma. Ambriel is by far one of the best massage therapists I have ever had the pleasure of meeting. So often you can tell when a therapist does this as a job but does not have passion in his or her work. This is never the case with Ambriel. Karma you have a gem in your hands. I highly recommend her, just not when I am trying to make an appointment :)
