Athena Jean Salon and Day Spa

I would like to start off by saying both times that I have went there for a massage and facial, the services have been great. Tanielle is the best for facials. She is so kind and soft spoken and my skin feels amazing when I leave. My only suggestion would be that the treatment rooms for the massages and facials either be moved, or have better sound proofing. Both times that I went, and for all the services I received, I heard people talking the whole time while they were getting their toes done in the spa chairs. It was really hard to relax when all you hear are people laughing and talking loud right outside the door. It was not just the clients in the chairs themselves being loud, it was the people that worked their too. I heard an entire conversation between a male employee with a client while she was getting her toes done. Kinda disappointing. The treatment rooms should be serene and quiet to give you a relaxing experience. Other than that. I loved the massages and facials!

This place is amazing! I’ve gotten waxed here and now can add massage to the list as well! The prices are a little steep but SO worth it. Very professional staff. Getting your lady parts waxed is always uncomfortable but when you have someone whose able to put you at ease, that’s golden. That goes for having a massage too. You’re pretty much naked so you really are putting your trust in a complete stranger. I had a deep tissue massage by this itty bitty little woman and let me tell you, Best massage I’ve ever had. I was like jelly in her hands. She’s got some strong hands so if you have some stubborn knots, go see her. I want to say her name is… Oh goodness… Janet?! I pray that’s it lol. Anyways, I’ll be back for another one pretty darn soon.

Went in to have my eyebrows done by Jacqueline, she did a good job but wasn’t very friendly I don’t know if maybe she was having a bad day. I might consider going back to her only because my eyebrows look good. I will say the girls at the front desk were very nice !!

I had an appointment for a permanent makeup with Jean. I arrived at 12:15 and they said have a seat she will be right with you. I waited until 12:50 and she was still with another client. Very rude to leave someone waiting that long. They could have had the courtesy to call me and tell me she was running late. I guess they think that their time is more valuable than mine.

This place ended up being such a disappointment. My boyfriend and I went to enjoy a spa day together and yet none of our treatments were done together. When we complained about it, they gave us each a little lotion. Like that was suppose to make it better. My daughter had her hair colored and cut. She requested a contrast of colors and received a solid color with dye left all around her face. We spent over 700 between services and hair cuts and color only to get dirty looks and rude replies. The facial And massage was the only good thing about the experience. Their front desk girl Tiffany was very rude and not helpful at all. Worth it to drive down the hill. Don’t spend your time or money here.

I don’t like to give negative reviews but in this situation I feel like It’s necessary. This place is really nice, all the workers are really nice and polite and they even offer you water. That’s not the problem the problem is they say they’re professionals are putting eyelash Extensions One by one, when they really put clusters I had to remove the lash extensions after about a week and a half of having them they started to fall apart they look uneven they look like one of the cluster lashes you get for $ 20 at a nail place. Totally not what I expected from place that has such good reviews. Meant only that but they charge $ 200 for a job that looks like it was $ 20 lashes. Then when I try telling them about the bad job that they had done .they told me that I probably didn’t know how to take care of them. I’ve been getting eyelash extensions at a different place for the past 3years and I never had a problem with them they always lasts 3 to 4 weeks. when I came to Athena after having them only for one week they look like they had almost 6 weeks of me having them. Almost half of them gone if not more. The worst thing is that the owner Jean is the one that actually put my lash extensions and she assured me that she was a professional. So if you want to Pay $ 200 for eyelash extensions that look like a $ 20 job then go ahead and go to them.

Worse place I have ever been too. My husband had a surprise apt for me to get my hair done like I use too all the time. Well I showed them how my hair always look in pics and that I want my hair platinum blonde (white!) I told the girl I hate gold! Well after I was done my hair was gold! And charge me $ 250! I could of done that with a box! I talked to the manger and she told me to drive back and that they could fix it but it will fry my hair! My hair is already light and I have NEVER had anyone have a hard time doing my hair blond and this girl is suppose to specialize in blonde! So they kept my money and I still had gold hair! I had to have my mother in law fix it and then go to the girls in Walmart in hesperia to fix it! Now I go there on a regular base because they know how to do blonde hair and charge me 75 $!! Stay away from this place! Ripe off!

I was in the area went to check to see if they take walk in for waxing. There was only one other customer in a chair. I asked. The girl at the desk said it will be about 20 minutes. oh ok. I’ll be back. Oh and should I sign my name. She looked at me with disgust and said do you want to make an appointment because we are probably going to fill up. I said that’s what I was just trying to do. She said ok so you do? I Said oh wow, never mind. She said ok bye. I Went to Michaels and gave them my money.

I just had a baby and I finally got a chance to get a mommy makeover. I am so happy I chose Athena Jean Salon!
I was so happy with the way my hair turned out! Stephanie gave me options for my ombré to really figure out exactly what I wanted.
It was a busy Saturday morning and I still felt like it was all about me. All the staff is especially welcoming and made sure that I was always comfortable.
Can’t wait to come back for my touch up!

Love this salon… It is now where I will start going. Wendy is by far the best, so talkative and warm hearted.

What a wonderful way to spend my birthday! I had the best massage EVER from Wessley. I have been very sore from hiking. He was successful in releasing the knots in my back and legs while still providing for a relaxing experience. I also had a facial from Noeline which was hands-​down the best I’ve ever had in my life. She made sure I was relaxed and comfortable and my skin has never felt or looked better. I look forward to my next appointment and plan to make my visits with her frequently and know my skin will love me for it! To top off the entire experience, the salon coordinator, Corina, who not only booked my last minute appointments for me but also was extremely professional and pleasure to meet.

Had an amazing experience once again at AthenaJean Salon & Day Spa! I got my nails done by Sarah and she did a wonderful job. She was easygoing and fun company! My nails turned out just the way I wanted them to! I also got my hair dyed for the very first time by the awesome owner, Jean! Love love loved it so much!

I love this salon, but I love hair stylist Wendy even more. I’ve been going to her for years, and it’s always a pleasure getting my hair done by her, she never fails on giving me what I want! Brandee is also a great stylist, and make up artist. I have no eyebrows (well maybe a few hairs) she made me look like I have amazing eyebrows for my wedding trial run, and like I have flawless looking skin.

I love this salon… It is great because they literally offer EVERYTHING that a salon can possibly offer! I have had waxing services and massages here– both excellent. All of the girls are very professional and courteous. Hope to try more of their services soon!

I love this place. They are very accommodating in getting me in at the last minute or adding last minute services to my appointment when I need them. I have had facials, and spray tanning by Kristina and lashes by Kristina and Jacqueline… I get mad compliments on my eyelashes and people staring because they can’t tell if they are real or not.
I’ve had my hair done, pedicures… covered a majority of what they offer and have loved every minute of it. I always look forward to my appointments.

Athena jean does a great job of making you look your absolute best they have the best customer service as well

This salon used to be great. By far the best pedicure they even had a massage therapist come in to massage you. Now Everytime I go there is some sort of issue.
My friend and I both got rockstart nails same day for a trip and they peeled the day after we got them. It couldn’t be a random mistake since two different people applied them. Then when I went to get it fixed they didn’t even pain my whole toe, it was dark so I could not tell until I left. Both their pedicurists are bad. Not like the other two there before.
The pretty girl that does brows is amazing though so I will be skipping the overpriced now not worth it pedis and just go for the brows.

I am very picky to the point where i used to cut and color my own hair. Until I came here and received the best services ever. The whole staff went the extra mile to make me feel relaxed and special.
They always have salon and spa specials for a unbelievable deal, and walk-​ins are taken care of right away.
All I can say is that this salon is beyond amazing.

This review is for Make-​up and Hair done for my wedding done on July 8, 2012.
Positives:
This salon was recommended from a family friend. I went to visit their salon for a make-​up and hair trial for my wedding. The salon is very stylish, clean, and very professional. The staff was very attentive as I walked in, I was greeted by a their host in a timely manner. I was very pleased with my make-​up and hair trial.
Krystal: The make-​up artist was very attentive and educated me on the difference between air-​brush and traditional application of make-​up and worked with me to find what best worked with my complexion. I really liked how she was very concerned about what I wanted and allowed me to change my mind (Which was a lot LOL) She was very patient with me and I really liked that.
Jean: The hair stylist, and owner of the Salon, was very professional and focused. I was glad that I brought a picture of what I wanted because she did it almost exactly what I wanted (I was so excited on the inside) she even worked with me to revise my hair to add more volume, style, and incorporated extensions that I brought with me. She did my hair in 30min which was record fast for me (usually my hair is difficult to work with; I have been told I have Asian hair) but Jean worked very hard to make my hair exactly like I wanted and then some, she made sure it would stay (I told her to drown me in hair spray if needed LOL, she didn’t need to) and it did through the rest of that evening. I tested to make sure :).
I decided to have them come down to San Diego for my wedding for my hair and make-​up and for my bridesmaids. I am so glad that I did.
On the day of my wedding, a team of hair and make-​up team arrived on a timely manner. They started on my bridesmaids and then me. I was glad they were able to organize who would take the longest and who could get done quickly. They were very professional and helped to even keep us on time. Jean, did my hair and I loved it!!! My make-​up was exactly how I wanted and I was so happy :) My bridesmaids looked and felt awesome as well.
Negatives: I wished that I had more options for more touch-​ups for during the wedding but I understand that they can’t stay the whole time LOL. Some people may say they are a little pricey but I found their prices were reasonable that you get what you pay for and you get real quality there.
Overall:
I would greatly recommend Athena Jean Salon for your wedding make-​up and hair. They are trendy, professional, and know all the tricks to make you look and feel beautiful! We are now friends on Facebook and they made me feel like family which is such a Filipino thing to do LOL. Whenever I pass thru the high dessert, I will be sure to pass by :) Shout out to Jean, Caylee, and Krystal!!! I will post some pictures if you would like to see of my make and hair from my wedding (but don’t copy my hair or make-​up lol, just kidding).

I can say without hesitation, that Athena Jean is my favorite all around Day Spa in the high desert. They cover everything, all in one location, and juggle/​coordinate multiple appointments to get you in for everything, all in one visit. That’s my favorite part, because that last thing we all need, is to come back for another visit right?
They do shellac (Andie and Esther), and rockstar toes. There are a few massage therapists (Bryan), which are all great. And Kristina & Jacqueline are my favorite for facials :), although I’ve heard that they are all awesome. After a full spa day, Josie wouldn’t let us leave without doing our makeup (not included in our package). She did our makeup, and made us feel like royalty. She’s AMAZING, what qem! Was super fun, and we felt pampered!
We’ll be back :). Thanks Athena Jean! Oh, and the best part about Athena Jean, aside from their great staff and awesome treatments, they have AWESOME promos on their website and on Facebook. I’ve picked up a bunch, and have never been disappointed!
