“That being said there are some good things about it such as the location and I didn't experience rude staff like some of the other reviewers have mentioned but all in all, there is nothing special about Violet in my opinion.”
“Esthetician used heavenly chocolate mask on me that made my skin visibly lifted, more elastic and toned.”
“So, I took her advice--I bought the products she recommended, and I seriously cut down on sugar (not coffee--no one can take away my coffee) and increased my fresh food consumption.”
“The spa also has a nice atmosphere - clean and well-decorated with fresh flowers.”
“Long story short, I'd rather not chance sending anyone here, there are too many other good options out there.”
“did alot of research online looking for a good place to go and I saw good reviews on this sight for facials at violet.”
“highly recommend Violet - it's a truly unique experince and I can't wait to come back for more”
“GREAT accompanying massage, perfect service, and soooo relaxing.”
“There is no special cache about stained and threadbare linens, overpriced product made with cheap ingredients, overworked and exploited staff and snotty, out of touch management.”
“had a very intense 90 minute deep tissue massage that was wonderful.”View Less
Luxurious!. Great facials! I am in love with how my skin looks and feels when I leave. I hope to find a spa discount with lanirvana, groupon, etc. so I can go back more often.
The place for facials.
The 5 star reviews and best facial awards you see on citysearch are for good reason. I have had a number of facilists and thi place by far is the best. My skin has finally found it's heaven. These
ladies are extremely professional, yet unpretentious. They made me feel totally comfortable, and the results have been amazing!
Every single penny: worth it. I love that they don't push products. Get a couple of facials and you will be asking them what you need to maintain your beautiful, new skin. A few weeks after the deep pore cleaning facial it looked so good I wanted to stop by the office just to show it off. I was so excited and so grateful.
It's your responsibility to keep up your skin care. However, you should definitely leave deep maintenance to the pros to get and keep you on the right track. This is the place.…
When sheets and towels are bad, they go here when they die. They should make more of an effort, especially in this economy. There is no special cache about stained and threadbare linens, overpriced product made with cheap ingredients, overworked and exploited staff and snotty, out of touch management. This place is appalling.…
I love this place!. I have been going to Violet for years now, and each time I see her I'm more pleased than the previous visit. Her inviting manor sets you at ease as soon as you walk into her beautiful boutique. My skin has made a dramatic improvement since I began using her natural products and now I can't imagine using anything else. Her pricing is more than reasonable considering the results you achieve here. Her products are heavenly & facials are always luxury with a lot of massage and candles in the room. And yet you see results immediately after your service since they mix masks right before applying them on you. Her staff is wonderful and catering and space is gorgeous. What a treat!…
Theme in 5-Star Reviews.....
I purchased a gift certificate from this place as a gift, because I saw their Best of Boston awards and I was in a hurry. After I left I began to have second thoughts, as I wasn't impressed with
what I had seen in their Newbury Street dungeon.
So decided to do some research and see if my concerns about quality were well founded. I've been reading the reviews here and noticed that Violet gets a lot of 5 and 1 star reviews, which is odd. Going a step further I looked into reviews posted by the 5 star reviewers... I did see one that had reviewed another place, but that was it. Looks like the owner or an employee is pumping up their stats....
Long story short, I'd rather not chance sending anyone here, there are too many other good options out there.…
