Crimson Day Spa

Great place to come and relax in Santa Barbara! They have champagne and mini cupcakes while you browse their cute boutique! Best massage I have had in a long time by Kira! I would definitely go back.

Last weekend, my boyfriend and I went down to SB for a conference (I’m from San Luis Obispo). I had a break in my day, so at the last minute, I decided to call Crimson Day Spa to see if they had any availability for a facial. I called at 3pm, and they were able to work around their schedules to take me in at 4pm — talk about customer service!
Once I got to the spa, Kristine greeted me warmly and I felt comfortable right away. I had the Crimson special — a facial and partial massage — and I cannot emphasize enough how great this experience was. I’ve never had a non-​acne facial before, and it was both incredibly relaxing and very helpful for my skin. Kristine was extremely knowledgable about all skin care products. I recently started using Dermalogica, and she gave me a bunch of really good advice about pairing the brand with moisturizers to ensure my skin doesn’t completely dry out. As other reviewers have said, the facial was very personalized — she gave me what my skin needed.
After the facial, Kristine recorded notes in the computer and even sent me a follow up email. In the future, I will definitely go back any time I am down in SB. I want to try more of their services and products!

whenever I’m in SB I make an appt at Crimson. It is always such a relaxing & wonderful experience. After a facial, waxing, or massage I feel refreshed & ready to enjoy my day. Jeanine is such a knowledgeable & beautiful person who makes the visit to her spa a real joy. can’t wait for my next visit!

My sister and I visited the Crimson Day Spa for the first time yesterday. What a perfect spa experience we both had. The moment we entered the front door we felt a good energy and the wonderful aromatherapy made us feel right at home. Both of us are big fans of essential oils and have been using essential oils for quite some time so we loved exploring all of the essential oils and goodies in the boutique section of the spa.
We both enjoyed a wonderful 1hour massage. It was one of the best I’ve ever had. David is skillful and gifted in knowing how to reduce knots and tight muscles. Even today I still feel uplifted and less knotted up and my skin still feels ultra soft from the wonderful oils.
The quality of the products used at the spa was obvious during and after the facial. There was an immediate difference in my skin! The aromatherapy facial is magical! You would be wise to choose this service.
Jeanine the owner is very knowledgable, it is blatantly obvious she LOVES her business and is all about making each customer feel renewed and stress free.
She seemed as happy as we were with the results both my sister and I experienced. Today my skin looks just as good as it did yesterday! I bought a few products to use at home… That was a very good decision, I can now enjoy the wonderfully magical organic products daily! My sister and I made the decision to make this spa a part of our regularly scheduled «sister time» We are both already looking forward to returning.

I selected Crimson Day Spa because of all the many positive reviews. My sister and I chose to book our annual birthday spa experience here this year and we are both so happy with our great choice!
This is a lovely spa where personalized service and satisfaction is their aim — and they certainly delivered for us. We received VIP treatment from the moment we arrived. We both booked the Desire package, receiving a most excellent full body one hour massage from the very talented David, and Jeanine delivered the best aromatherapy facial I’ve ever had. In short summary, both services were simply outstanding! David has excellent technique and he made sure that all of my sore spots were attended to, leaving me feeling wonderful. Yay! Who could want for more? And Jeanine! She is simply a master esthetician. The facial she gave me instantly took years off my face, leaving me feeling and looking fresh. I loved the skincare products she used on me so much that I had to buy them before I left. She sells really good organic products. Mind you, there was no sales pressure at all. We felt we made two new friends after today. In fact, we each hugged the two of them before we left. What a great find! We will surely be returning to Crimson Day Spa in the very near future for some more more of everything. Book your time and Go! You won’t be disappointed!

This spa was just ok. Everyone was nice but the services were up and down. the nails were ok. There were four in our party and all of our nails were peeling by day two from thick polish. One girl got a massage that left her with bruises on her arms and knots in her neck from the roughness of the masseuse. She also used so much oil that she left dripping with oil all over her clothes. The facials were fine. nothing great, but fine. The boutique is small but cute. We had a small area to relax… not really big enough to accommodate a part of four unless at least two are getting treatments at the same time. I wouldn’t go back due to the complaints from others in my party. Not work the expense.

I love this place! Jeannine, Kristine and Monica are the ladies that I have been treated by and I love them all! Come here to treat yourself to a wonderful ambiance, delightful aroma, and professional, friendly and satisfying experiences. From acupuncture to a lovely organic spray tan, this place has everything you want :) I highly recommend this place and will myself continue coming here to relax (fall asleep hehe) and purchase essential oils ! 5 stars!

I started coming here for waxing and facials and fell in love with the place. I love that they use all yummy, wonderful smelling organic products. Jeanine and Kristine are amazing and make each visit so enjoyable. The perfect spot if your in town for vacation! Love you girls.

Jeanine does an incredible job for eyelash and eyebrow tinting. In the 20+ years I’ve been tinting my eyelashes she is honestly the best I’ve ever had. I have very blonde eyelashes and yet you wouldn’t know it after Jeanine gets done! She’s truly truly one of the best! Her spa is very pretty, relaxing and in a very convenient location — near coffee, easy parking and a chocolate store and yoga studio!

My fiancé and I planned a getaway to Santa Barbara from San Diego, and I remembered from our last trip that I wanted to be sure to use a Spafinder card this time to save a few bucks. I went onto the Spafinder website, and
, and decided upon this place. They were accommodating when I called at 11am for a same day couples massage later that afternoon. However as it turned out, our couples massages was just two individual massages in separate rooms at the same time. Not what I had in mind. The neighboring businesses, combined with the nearby freeway, the ringing telephone, etc… were all real annoyances… I couldn’t slip off into lala land like you’d like to during a massage. Not to mention I was thinking about my fiancé’s experience in the neighboring room too. My massage was decent, but the fiancé didn’t care for his, and told me the technician rubbed his upper vertebrae to the point of soreness… any massage I’ve had, the muscles were rubbed, not bones? If I’d done my homework on most of the good reviews, most of them were for waxing or facials. They might be great at that, and they were nice enough ladies, but had I done a drive by prior to booking, I probably wouldn’t have gone here. It just wasn’t the spa experience we were looking for.

What an amazing experience! I wanted to plan a weekend get away for myself and four of my girlfriends. I used the spa
website to locate spas in the area. After calling several, I decided on Crimson day spa because of speaking to Jeanine. She was very friendly and extremely professional and because I was coming from out of town and making 5 apts, I wanted everything to go smoothly. I was so impressed! The spa is delightful and quaint and we have such a wonderful afternoon. Jeanine is the best and I especially enjoyed my massage from Kira. I will definitly be going back when I’m in the area:)

I love this place! I’ve been going to Crimson for 4 years to get my brows waxed. The atmosphere is very relaxing, I’ve often found myself almost falling asleep as I get my brows done. My brows look great, I get compliments on them all the time.

Getting a facial from Jeannine is an amazing experience. So relaxing and refreshing. She is so good at what she does, plus her knowledge of skin care and products make for a really great experience. Also the Nu Face is a great way to keep the muscles in your face tighter and helps create more collegen. All in all an awesome spa and experience.

This is truly «as good as it gets»! After calling one day ahead to book five treatments for my daughter and myself, I thought things might be less than perfect. Was I ever wrong! In addition to giving us top drawer service, Jeanette even took me next door to her hairdresser, who then cut my hair.
I was blown away by the quality of the services — massage, salt scrub, mani-​pedi, excellent spray tanning. But it was that little touch of personal warmth that makes this a true 5-​star Spa!

Jeanine does the best eye brows in town for a great price! After years of trying to get me to wax my lip I finally tried it and now I’m hooked! Wish I tried it years ago!

Crimson Spa smells super good, so I felt relaxed and happy upon walking in. The staff was really friendly and welcoming. I had a great 60-​minute full body massage here for $ 85. It seemed to be a little bit cheaper than many of the other spas in the area, and the massage was really good, so I’d recommend it! It’s right off State St if you’re staying in the area.

Jeanine is amazing! She is the only person in Santa Barbara (after 11 years of living there) that does an excellent brow wax each and every time. She is a true artist and also the nicest person. Her waxing prices also can’t be beat. I’ve paid $ 30 – 40 at other salons for lesser results. I wish I still lived in SB and could still visit Crimson every month. Every time I’m in town, I book a brow appointment with Jeanine.

I LOVE Crimson.
I used to work for Jeanine so I have a real behind the scenes know it all on this adorable little Santa Barbara jewel.
When you think about getting a spa treatment you think about how relaxing and peaceful it’s going to be, how soothing and good for mind body and soul. You want to be treated like a queen (or king) and leave floating on a cloud. Well, those thoughts were created after going to Crimson.
Jeanine makes sure her spa is up to date on the best organic products for your skin and your home. Yes, that’s right, get organic cleaning products that clean WAY better then those watered down chemical cleaners! She takes pride an every inch of her spa. The boutique area is filled with organic cotton and bamboo clothes, yoga outfits, towels and more. She has an area just of bath stuff, I love baths. There’s a couch so comfy you sit down with your yummy tea forte and never want to leave!
The spa itself has 3 treatment rooms for massages, facials and body treatments and there’s a clean bathroom with a shower. There is also an open yet still private area for manicures and pedicures. It’s always beautiful, quiet and clean here. Not to mention it smells wonderful with all the organic essential oils and soy candles!
Treatments I’ve had:
SunFx Spray Tan: All natural, made of sugars, last for a few weeks and doesn’t leave you patchy in color. Plus it dries in minutes! It works with your skin to give you the most natural glowing tan possible. LOVE IT!
Crimson Hot Stone Massage: To die for! I like my massages to be deep tissue and with the warm river stones you really get a good deep massage. The stones are actually used as tools, rubbing and kneading your muscles and soothing them down to the bone. I fall asleep every time I get this. My skin soaks up and loves the natural oils used during the massages. And here, they start with your head and work down to your toes, giving you true healing.
Hour Massage: Super yummy! The perfect treatment for your tired, aching muscles. I always have to get a massage when I come here.
Herbal Mud Wrap: This made me feel like a goddess! I was coated in mineral mud and wrapped up in a warm cocoon where I drifted off into a nap. After getting toasty and letting the mud work its magic I took a refreshing shower to get all the mud off and then went back to my warm bed where I had a massage with organic oils. The entire experience was amazing and I floated out of the spa on a cloud. This is a service you have to try!
Crimson Ultimate Facial: A personalized Aromatherapy Balancing facial with a warm paraffin bath for your hands and feat, accompanied by a little massage. So wonderful!
Anti-​Aging Alpha Vital Deep Exfoliation Facial: My favorite! A delicious fruit, green tea, algae and aloe masque is applied to your skin and it always leaves mine hydrated, renewed and looking gorgeous! This facial leaves you feeling beautiful and you can see the results in your skin. Your body will love you for doing this facial.
Acu-​Massage: The perfect combo! A massage and Acupuncture. What a terrific healing treatment! I love the gentle, amazing hands of Jessica. She has studied this old medicine for years and knows exactly how to cater to your individual needs. My boyfriend also loves this treatment for his knees and allergies.
Sea Salt Body Scrub: Awesome! Starts off with warm herbal body compresses followed by a blend of sea salt and organic essential oils. Then your whole body is given a wonderful massage rub down with an essential oil of your choice. This treatment gets rid of the old skin, exfoliating and re-​mineralizing you from head to toe and leaving you with silky smooth skin.
Waxing: I’ve had my brows done and the shaping and quality of the wax is amazing! Your skin is barely red and your free to go about your day looking fabulous. I’ve also had my arms and legs waxed, my underarms and bikini. No matter what you get waxed, they do a wonderful job and leave you looking and feeling your best.
Everything I have ever gotten here has been amazing. I also love the organic boutique where I can get my natural, earth-​friendly cleaning products, lotions and oils for my skin and soft organic cotton clothes. Not to mention the great local jewelry Jeanine always has available.
This Spa is where we all deserve to be. You become the royalty you’ve only dreamed of being. Thank you Crimson for making my spa experience top of the line and always putting my health first. My mind, body and soul thank you!

I’ve been going here for about 4 years now. My aesthetician from Skin Deep named Molly moved to Crimson with Jeanine the owner when it first started, and I’m really happy to see how much the place has flourished. Although my favorite Molly moved away :(, I still really like Jeanine and Sathya. The eyebrow wax is about $ 14 – 16, and I feel that it’s totally worth every penny because of how gentle they are, and how you honestly don’t walk out with lesions on your face like cheaper places. I get my wax done and walk around and run errands all day! They do a great job: nice shaping on the brow wax, and leaves you looking nice and natural: none of that pencil-​line-​thin eyebrow work.
I recently moved to LA a few weeks ago and I wish I could’ve taken Crimson with me! I may just come into town to get my brows waxed because I’m so scared to try out a new person in LA right now!
So if anyone in LA has any suggestions for a place in the Hollywood area let me know :).

Its a really cute quaint place, kinda hidden. they serve you a delicious tea while waiting. I had soff-​ee-​ya (is how u pronounce it) and she was soo sweet. I got a salt scrub with a mini facial and both were extremely relaxing. I’d definetley recommend this place for an enjoyable afternoon.
