Nomi Day Spa

I’ve been going to see Naomi for over 6 years. She does a great job at tinting, waxing, facials and I’m sure more. Her prices are reasonable, the service is consistent and I have always been happy with her work.

I started seeing Naomi after buying a groupon and really enjoyed my experience. She is super professional and personable, I felt comfortable dropping trou within minutes of meeting her lol. After I used up the 3 groupons deal, I continued to see Naomi at full price for my bikini and leg waxes and actually looked forward to our meetings. The spa smells great and feels super relaxing. She had me in and out of there within 15 mins but I never felt rushed. Just really speedy and efficient waxing! Thanks Naomi!

Amazing day spa. Naomi is a treat and all of the other staff are pros. Small and tasteful space in an off the beaten path location. Highly recommended!

COuld never claim my Unilocal deal because naomi was never available…

I am sure this place it as great as other reviews make it seem, it just wasn’t that great for me. To clarify, the famous «owner» did not give me my facial, but another esthetician. The facial was fine, but nothing special, or better yet, nothing memorable. The location was a little weird and I felt unsafe walking there from the MUNI stop. The esthetician was extremely nice, sadly, the whole experience just felt a little bland.

I am remiss in writing this review. I’ve been going to Nomi Day Spa since relocating back to the San Francisco 4 years ago. Nomi was the first place I tried and the ONLY place I wanted to use during the last 4 years. It’s located in a multi-​use building, with a few other businesses. The vibe is very zen and there always yummy tea available. Noemi — the owner — provides stellar and personalized service to her clients. No matter when I arrive, I always feel like it’s all about me — that’s a good thing!
I regularly have my eyebrows done and get a facial. Initially I was concerned about the facial because my skin tends to blemish and scar. Noemi took the time to talk about products with me BEFORE the facial, and together we made it an iterative process; trying different products as time went on. After each facial, my skin looks healthy and has a wonderful glow!
I am very pleased to be a regular client of Nomi Day Spa. Sadly, I’ve recently relocated to Marin County, but find time to drive to the city for my facials at Nomi. The customized and caring service makes it well worth the drive.
–Satisfied Customer

I went in for a deep pore facial but left with a head massage… It was supposed to be about an hour but only lasted 40 minutes, maybe this is because I was the last customer of the day — 6:30 appointment. I had a hot cup of tea when i came in and it was still pretty hot when i left. The extraction was 5 minutes. The rest of the time I was being rubbed by smelly oils and had hot towels put on my face. Weird I came there because I wanted to clean my skin and I expected a lot of extraction since its a DEEP PORE facial. And she didn’t even pop a pimple :) ambiance was very hippie nice but didn’t help my skin. The smells of all the oils gave me a headache. And to everyone else on the Caltrain I took home. No good. I wouldn’t recommend this place. I guess I should mention that it wasn’t the owner that did the facial.
I also looked on their website to see what a deep pore facial was and it said that it was «In addition to the pure facial (which is 50 minutes long), your complexion and skin tone are enhanced by a customized peel or enzyme, removing dead skin cells and minimizing the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles and skin imperfections» and I did not get any customized peel or enzyme. I didn’t even know what I got because she didn’t tell me anything that she was doing or putting on my face. The regular price for this facial is 110 $ which is insane because for that money you can get 2 much better facials!

I had the best experience at Nomi Day Spa! I have problematic skin with lots of hyperpigmentation and clogged pores. I am always on the lookout for a great esthetician and I definitely found the one :)
Naomi is very intuitive, gentle, fun to chat with, and frankly, the results were like no other facial I’ve had. I didn’t leave looking red-​faced or splotchy like I always do after extractions and a peel. My skin was glowing and after a few days of very light peeling, my skin looked dramatically more even-​toned and smooth. She even texted the next day to see how I was doing.
I also purchased a couple of Rhonda Allison products while I was there that I absolutely love! Naomi didn’t push the products on me at all. In fact, I was the one that kept asking about them. She helped me choose the right two products and I’ve seen a huge difference in my skin since using them.
I would give six stars if I could. Great experience overall and I will certainly be coming back!

Naomi is the only esthetician I trust with my skin. She doesn’t just slather me with a lot of nice smelling creamy things (although she does do that too), she deep cleans my pores, getting out the yucky residue of sunscreens and hikes and too many dog kisses. Naomi also does my Brazilian, and she leaven me nice and even without breakage and with a good shape, unlike the asymmetry and stubbies I have to accept when I decide to be a little cheep and go to the mani/​pedi place. Usually, if I get a facial, I also go ahead and get a lash tint, which leaves my eyes looking smoky and sexy.
But certainly, the best reason to go to Naomi is Naomi. She’s natural, nurturing, grounding and present. I always leave blissed out.
Highly recommended.

I’ve been going to Nomi day spa for many years now and I wouldn’t go anywhere else. Her space is intimate, her services are personal and thorough and I always leave feeling beautiful and relaxed.
I require deep cleaning facials and I love being pampered. Naomi is very thorough in cleaning my pores. She gets my skin clean and clear to the point that I’m always asked after my service where I go to get my facials; and her massages around the neck, shoulders and face relax me the point of bliss.
In terms of my brazilians they’re painless. Naomi uses a hard wax and it’s over in no time. She always takes her time to examine the area thoroughly to make sure everything is even and clean. After previous waxes at other places that were uneven, I really appreciate the level of detail.
While I wish she was open more days a week she stays open quite late which works well since I tend to get out of work later in the evenings.

Like a vacation!
I seen Naomi every 6 weeks for a deep cleanse facial and brow wax. Each and every time I walk through the door it’s like a wave of relaxation flows over me and I have come to really look forward to my visits.
Not only is Naomi extremely personable, but she is incredibly intuitive as well. I value that in someone who is providing a service for me that needs to be good BUT relaxing too.
I always feel like I’m in the best hands for any spa service with her. I occasionally do bikini waxes which are the best I’ve had. Fast, painless and never awkward :) Naomi really possesses a gentle bedside manner that I have never found in any other esthetician. I trust and enjoy her presence so much that I asked her to do my makeup at my wedding. She nailed exactly the look I wanted and truly, truly brought something special and grounding to the experience.
I would recommend her to anyone!

A long-​overdue update:
So I noticed this response from the owner, Naomi, recently:
«I respond to every single voicemail I get from clients. I remember you called and asked if you could walk in or if I was by appointment only. I responded by saying i was by appointment only and then you hung up. Sometimes I wonder why people who live across town would purchase a deal from me if my location is not convenient for them. I’ve been located in the same spot for almost 10 years.»
It’s interesting that you’d think I’d let a voucher I bought with good money go to waste, Naomi. I never got a call from you, and I don’t think it’s polite to hang up on people, so you must have mistaken me for someone else. It’s not too wild to say that sometimes people like to try new places, even if it’s a little out of the way. Are you telling me you’ve never gone out of your way to try a new restaurant, or check out a new store? You completely missed my point by the way.
Quite frankly, I don’t care where you’re located and how long you’ve been there. I now know why your offer was on Groupon in the first place.

Nomi Rocks!
Best Brazilian hands down! I have been to a lot of places and even though this place isn’t that convenient for me, there is parking and It’s worth it to get a quick, painless service. I don’t mind that she is only open Thursday– Saturday, I just make my next appointment while I am there. 5 weeks on the dot! And who doesn’t want to work 3 days a week, these unhappy, deal-​seeking Unilocalers are just JEALOUS!!! You go girl! See ya in 5 weeks!
HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

I had been wanting to get a microderm facial done forever and a friend had told me about Naomi at Nomi Day Spa.
The first appointment I had, I was in love! She is professional yet still calm and caring. I heard microderm could be a little painful, so I expressed my concern to her and she was very good at letting me know what she was doing and what might feel uncomfortable, but I nearly fell asleep because I was so relaxed!
I’ve been in for 3 treatments and I look better every time! Love!
You do need to schedule in advance, and I’m not sure why people are griping about that… A facialist who is booked often is obviously talented. I wouldn’t trust my skin to a walk-​in appointment!

I had a wonderful experience here!
The service was great and quick! Less painful than previous ones and I feel like she guides you through the whole process putting yourself at ease.
Long story short, I’ll be coming back!

I bought a pinchit deal for a brazilan wax and a 50 min facial, little did I know that she is only open Thurs-​Sat and she gets booked up 2 – 3 weeks in advance! Scheduling both of these together was a hassle, lots of phone tag, because I always went to the machine. If your business is SO popular, wouldn’t you open your doors up another day of the week so you could get more customers?
Anyways, the day finally came and all was well, until she started asking questions about me… Summing it up, she made me feel extremely uncomfortable. She made me feel guilty for getting a wax, because I’m too young apparently. then she basically told me that my boyfriend and I won’t last, because of the 3 min interrogation she gave me. Sorry I’m not going to spill my guts out to you after you insulted me in the first 2 minutes, when we have a WHOLE hour to spend together after that.
I’m not sure if the wax was painless because of her technique or because I was appalled with her behavior. Facial was okay, nothing special.

I love this place! I got a ridiculous Unilocal deal for two waxes and was very happy with my experiences. It’s super relaxing and the staff is most excellent. Lara worked with me both times I went for a wax there and she is the coolest. Super efficient and super chill.
The only problem I have with this place is that it seems like it’s in a bad part of town and it’s difficult to get to if you don’t have a car.

Super friendly and fast service! Very quiet and calming office. I never feel rushed. Very personal service.
The only minus is it’s not too easy to get to via public transit. Plenty of parking though.

The Unilocal deal that I bought was for 2 waxing sessions. After my first initial one, I was very hesitant to go back. The experience that I had had was so painful that I was really considering canceling my second appointment and forfeiting my Unilocal deal. And that’s when Naomi called me and asked me to come see her personally. And so I did, and I’m happy that I did.
Naomi was fantastic. She talked through the entire session, distracting me from the pain of having my pubic hairs ripped from me. She made me comfortable right away and even recommended an ointment to use after waxing, in order to minimize ingrown hairs and such. And the quality of the wax was very good. Hair were gone and the re-​growth was pretty painless.
I wish she was in a more accessible location. I don’t have a car and so, although she has a parking lot, it doesn’t do me any good. Public transport is a bit limited, but hey, it works.

I purchased the Unilocal deal for Nomi day spa, and I was very happy with my brazilian wax! Naomi didn’t do my wax, but the woman who did (Laura I think) was very friendly, VERY quick, as painless as a brazilian can be.
Overall a very good experience, and look forward to going back
