Booked a manicure/pedicure well in advance, and specifically asked for someone who with experience. Zoe was my technician and had the manicure first. It was the most painful experience. To begin, I had to ask for my coat to be hung up. She just sat there an looked at me. Big red flag right there. She was almost afraid to touch my hands. The file kept falling because she was not holding it tight enough, hence the filing was horrible. Nails are not even, my cuticles were pushed back dry. Put on loads of lotion BEFORE cleaning underneath, then left me with it all on my arm and hands and then attempted

Customer service - A very sub-standard massage prompted this review. Unfortunately, my attempts to discuss this with the owner were not acknowledged. That being said, the same spa treatment a year before was excellent. I have had numerous massage treatments over the years and know there will be differences between each masseuse. This was not the case in this circumstance. I was extremely disappointed to have to use my gift card for this session.

I had an appointment with Pink Lime's new colourist Dayna. She just moved to Vancouver and I am so excited I found her! She was absolutely incredible--a true artist! I brought her pictures of what I was looking for and delivered well beyond my expectations. She specializes in blondes and it REALLY shows! I felt like she found the perfect toner for my colouring. Thank you Dayna!

I saw Dayna last weekend and she honestly made my day. Not only did she figure out exactly what to do with my hair in about 3 minutes, and executed it beautifully, but she was also just a refreshing pile of joy to talk to! I normally don't enjoy the hair salon chat, and was having a particularly gloomy day. But she picked me right up with her sweet energy and unforced friendliness. You can tell she's not from Vancouver :) Absolutely worth a visit. Thanks Dayna!
