Reviews of The Summit Skin Care & Hair Removal (Spa)

Jennifer Campbell

Absolutely LOVE the experience, knowledge & experience of the staff at The Summit! Been a loyal client for over 10 years. There may be other spas in HRM & beyond, but not any that will make you feel as though you are at the peak of the summit...you will feel elated from the moment you arrive until the moment you leave!

Would not recommend for a pedicure. Went for the Signature Pedi - for the price and amount of time spent, I can honestly say it was absolutely not worth it. The cuticles were not done neatly, the nail shape was made uneven, the nail polish application went onto my skin in some parts and my feet were barely any softer after all the scrubs and paraffin. The staff was very nice and the experience was quite relaxing but I don’t think they have the appropriate training (or equipment) to offer quality pedicures.

Very disappointed. I had been to the Summit several years ago and remember it for the quality service. I rarely go to a spa nowadays and therefore was really looking forward to returning to the Summit for that same quality service. How disappointed was I . I had filled out the questionnaire yet was not asked one question about the info I had provided. The esthetician had barely started my treatment when she was interrupted by a knock on the door and went out to speak to someone. From that moment on it appeared she was rushed. I spent almost 30 min in room and was alone for over half of it. I have been to spas before and was given hand massages, or scalp messages while I was processing. Not so at the Summit. I had the treatment applied, was left alone for approx 10 min, then had the treatment checked and was left alone for another 10 minutes. In the past the Esthetician would take this time to advise on skin care, fillers, services etc. At no time was this instigated. My treatment was swift and to the point It was only in the final few minutes that she made any attempt at a conversation with me. I did not like the final result but did not want her to do any more, I just wanted to leave. I will go elsewhere to have what I wanted done. I went to a quality spa for quality service but could have gotten same service in a nail bar for less then half the price.

I visited the summit yesterday. I am six weeks post Achilles' tendon surgery so arrived with problems to be dealt with. The staff were very caring and helpful. Michelle could not have treated a client any better. She was gentle, sympathetic and caring.. I appreciated every moment. Mary Parkhill

Professional and friendly service! I have been a client of Lindsay Wilson for years and she always takes the time and care with my services. Highly recommend!

The Summit Spa is one of the best in Halifax. The staff are always friendly, punctual, and go out of their way to provide exceptional service. They also have a great range of skincare products for every skin type -- you can't go wrong!

Thank you to Michelle for her wonderful treatments!

I recently followed my esthetician of many years to The Summit from another downtown location - if not for Lindsay Wilson, I would have never looked twice at this spa, tucked in a basement off Spring Garden. Am I ever glad this is where Lindsay's path has taken her (and I!). The Summit has been very welcoming to both me as a new client and her as an employee from what I can tell. The atmosphere is warm and comforting with the right mix of clinical & you can tell right away that they're serious about skincare. While I would follow Lindsay anywhere, I am extremely satisfied with both her choice to move here as well as their choice to bring her on as a valued team member. The products I have purchased have become integral parts of my skincare routine, and the skincare education I leave with after every visit is invaluable. (cross posted)

I came in a few weeks before a wedding I was standing in. I made the appointment because my face was breaking out and I needed it to be gone for the wedding. Lindsay evaluated my skin, asked me a few questions, and was able to put together a whole routine for me! the products she chose were perfect for my sensitive skin and targeted exactly what they needed to. I will definitely be coming back to see Lindsay for all my skin care needs!

AMAZING service, great staff that makes sure your experience at the spa is well worth it. I play a lot of sports so I needed a pedicure at the end of the season, man they had all the latest tools to take care of any foot situation, and cleanliness was on point all tools were sterilized. Also I think her name was Mia at the front desk but she was extremely organized and made sure everything ran smooth. Couldn’t ask for a better day at the spa. Go Summit!

Tessa

The staff was quick , friendly and very knowledgeable. It’s a great atmosphere with great natural products for the body. I would definitely recommend The Summit to everyone, you will not regret it!!

Angela Muise

Amazing spa with the best service. Walking in you instantly feel such positive energy in the room and it immediately brightens my day! I highly recommend the Summit to anyone looking for a great quality spa!

Nicole Power

I have been going to the Summit for the past 13 years. I get brow waxes often and have had pedis and facials on an occasinal basis. I always have a wonderful experience. This summer I had the Body Bliss treatment for time and I would highly recommend for anyone looking for a super relaxing treatment.

Karen Cross

I've been going to The Summit Spa for facials and to buy skin care products for years and it is one of the nicest and most relaxing spas I've ever been to by far! They have such great products for sale and their facials with the Dermasound add-on are to die for, especially for my sensitive acne-prone skin. As an added bonus my favourite esthetician Lindsay Wilson recently moved to The Summitt! I've been going to Lindsay at another spa for about four years now and this girl knows what she is doing - she really cares about her clients and meeting their needs and I've genuinely never left an appointment unsatisfied with my service. If you're considering trying waxing for the first time or are looking for a new regular this is your girl and The Summitt is your spot!

The Summit is my favourite spa in Halifax. Great location, warm atmosphere and not only a friendly but a super knowledgeable team on all of their services, especially skin care. Definitely differentiated from the rest of the spas in Halifax because of this and would recommend the Summit to anyone!

Hannah Baillie

The Summit always does an amazing job at both services and supplies. It has been such a pleasure to have this business working so safely and thoughtfully during the pandemic. During the lock down I was able to maintain a good regime thanks to them! Love the info seminars too! Thank you!

My husband sent me here for my birthday and it was the BEST spa experience I’ve ever had! From start to finish the women who took care of me that day were wonderful, passionate and professional. I really loved my facial experience and my pedicure had me feeling like a million bucks!

Nolan Woodward

Excellent service, great atmosphere! I see Lindsay Wilson for my eyelash lift and tint & facials. My skin & eyelashes have never looked better. She's super knowledgeable and sweet! If you're shopping around for an esthetician, a new spa, or just a relaxing day of pampering, The Summit is the place to go!

I visited The Summit in 2015 for the 8 WEEK SKIN TRANSFORMATION PROGRAM. It was very costly but was given to me as a gift to help with adult acne, scaring, etc. The staff was very helpful and knowledgeable, answering any questions I had. I felt very relaxed during each session and in trusted hands of experts. Unfortunately, after the 8 weeks I saw no results. I even purchased some products they suggested would help. In my case it ended up being a waste of time and money.

Dr B

This place is great! The owner is so kind, experienced and thoughtful. Also they are educated on treatments for dark skin people. Which is hard to come across in Halifax. I would say they are people of colour friendly for skin treatments. They go out of their way to learn how to treat different communities. Great service!

I ordered products from the summit online as part of Boxing Day promotions. The summit called me the next day to let me know they were in the area to deliver my products directly to my door. Fabulous service :)

Jenn Simister

I began going to The Summit as a student treating myself to the "occasional" spa experience 20 yrs ago. Over the years, I have experienced a wide variety of services and can whole heartedly say the Staff are the best. I highly recommend The Summit, the services and the Staff to anyone seeking a wonderful spa experience.

Beautiful spa with great service. Received a 75 Signature Body Bliss treatment from Lindsay Wilson, who I would highly recommend! She's talented, knowledgable and skilled. Will be a returning client of hers for sure :)
