Reviews of Studio J Urban Spa (Spa)

Kristen Mosdell

This is my go to place for lash tint, eyebrow wax. Tried my first lift/perm and thankfully my esthetician was patient because my lashes were stubborn, but I ended up with a really nice curl and color.

Matt Jarratt

A very professional and relaxing experience! Friendly staff and a great atmosphere!

Rahul Jairath

Professional and friendly

Great service and product usage!

sonya Morris

Beautiful spa downtown with above par service. This is the place to go if you want to be pampered. This is where you need to go for that ‘self care’ we all need!

Nicole Marcel

Nails in natural sun and in glow in the dark lighting lol. I am in love with my nails. I'd show my toes too but no thanks but have my word when I say Taylor and Kristen are amazing nail techs. Kristen is a perfectionist at manis and I couldn't be happier with my nails. Taylor got an ingrown out for me and did my toes beautifully. The Manager is a super lovely lady as well, Jillian. Thank yoh Ladies. I WILL be back and I do reccomend their salon! 104$ for both mani and pedi, go on the website to see what is right for you. They have a ton of options. Thank you Studio J ♡ (Not sure if pictures posted on here or not)

Kristy Nanise

Such a clean, modern yet vintage vibed spa . Super knowledgeable , Friendly and highly skilled! I'd recommend it for sure.

Elysia Johnson

Amazing beauty services. We endorse this amazing salon. Loving the hottest nail colour, blue ocean wave!

Lindsay Gropp

Studio J is efficient with their bookings and service upon arrival. The atmosphere is friendly, clean, and inviting. A bit of a hidden gem actually. Amanda performed my pedicure and I was very pleased with my service that I try to make a habit of visiting the spa when I am in the area. The pricing is industry standard, but I recommend watching for any promotions, they seem to happen frequently.

Amal Chaaban

Excellent professional and efficient. My esthtician was so kind and attentive - she really took a moment to listen to what I wanted done and what I wanted the final look to be. Also? So clean. This place is so clean. Just earned a repeat customer.

Julie Hawkins

Lovely atmosphere and staff

Ashley Duk

The spa is clean and the staff are friendly and welcoming. I definitely recommend any service by Taylor, she's amazing!

Dayne

This spa is the best place to go to if you are unsure about ANY service anywhere else! The estheticians take care of you and listen to what your concerns are regarding your skin, nails, feet, brows, etc. Their skincare line is affordable and you actually get the results you want if you follow the home care. :)

Mark Kandborg

You're going to love it!

Samantha Jones

Absolutely adore Taylor and her services. Always an enjoyable service with great conversation

Stephanie Christensen

Amazing and attentive staff, have had body scrubs, facials, make up, nails and get my eyebrows done monthly - have yet to have anything other than an awesome experience!!! Would definitely recommend it.

Sandra B

I've always had good experiences at this spa. The work is done well and the service is very professional. The surroundings are very clean, comfortable and relaxing.

Lan Nguyen

Studio J has been my only choice for any spa services since 2018. I've had manicures, pedicures, facials and lash services by Amanda and they were all awesome! Amanda is probably one of the best people I've met. She's thoughtful, considerate, skillful, kind and so smart! I love her so much I've haven't booked with anyone else even though I know Jillian and Taylor are also amazing! The products are great - even on my sensitive skin. Everyone here is so genuine and friendly, which always makes me feel so welcomed.

Catalina Muggli

Amanda was amazing, I love how my eyebrows and eyelashes look!

norman piehl

Jillian and Taylor went out of thier way to come in to accommodate myself and my fiance on Valentine's Day. They did an amazing job following strict Covid protocols It was a great day

Diana Marcano

Peaceful place. It is a bit expensive (for me) but I will continue going there. The girls working there are very good at their jobs. Also they present themselves very professionally and classy.

Tazma-Jean Willis

Love this place! Very clean and inviting! Great atmosphere :)

Elizabeth Manke

After seeing great reviews I booked a manicure & pedicure here. I can say the only difficult part was parking. It was THE best manicure & especially pedicure I have ever had! Kristin was not only so wonderful to connect with the few hours I was there (loved her & will be back to see her!!) but no one has EVER gotten my feet that soft!! Even my new boyfriend was amazed. I didn’t think it possible-like baby’s feet! I was planning on it just being for this one special occasion but she wrecked that idea for me doing too amazing of a job!! lol

Elomena Emessiri

Serene location just off the noise and distractions of Jasper Ave. Amazing staff and service. Can't wait to go relax there again.

Chester Sit

Had the greatest massage there! You'll feel well taken care of at Studio J!

Melanie Ussyk

I had a pedicure with Taylor - she was very professional and friendly - I will definitely return!

Danielle Killam

Fantastic spa, very kind staff, wonderful space, great service.

Amanda Potz

Very pricey

Marco M.

Great ambience, reasonable prices, friendly staff and good quality service all around.

Rhonda Minchau

Jillian and her staff are very professional and skilled. The atmosphere at Studio J is classy and soothing, its such a treat to get services there, I leave feeling like I've had a little holiday!

kristal wolbeck

not impressed.. yappy dog greeted me with growling upset fit. I had a gift cert for a massage. Room was cold, massage was mediocre and I swear the masseuse was texting while massaging (Kristy was her name) she would one handed massage my leg while i was face down and then not massage at all for 30 sec periods.. when she placed both elbows on my back it felt as if she was on her phone again because her pressure was not changing and she was hardly moving except what felt like slight movement from texting.. it got my blood boiling so i turned to confront her and she jumped like i had caught her in the act. she said she was stretching her thumbs but i do not buy it. she gave me a longer massage because of the incident and seemed more focused after but i was horrified to have to confront her about this.. not a comfortable feeling lying face down half naked thinking ur masseuse has a phone out.. also the dog was in the room for the massage and needed let out multiple times... walls are thin could hear everyone talking outside of room.. not a very relaxing experience to say the least.

Noemi Kis

Had a great manicure and pedicure with Jillian. She really took the time to be thorough and walked me through the techniques as well as the products used. After mentioning that I find the massage element of the service therapeutic, she spent a lot of time on both my hands and feet with a massage so relaxing that I nearly fell asleep! Lovely decor with works of art from local artists throughout the spa as well. Will definitely be back!

Jonathan Wedgwood

Girlfriend has been a regular, always a pleasure! The ladies are always so nice when I drop her off and she comes back beaming. We recently moved but she has family in the big Edmonton and still loves to go when we visit. I'm a guy so I don't want to say too much here, but it's definitely worth the money. She recently got me the fathers day package (I'm not a father, maybe she's hinting??).

Kira Conroy

Such a great spa! I got a facial and it was amazing, very relaxing and the lotions used smelled amazing. Would definitely recommend!

Micki Hermansen

Kristen did my facial and it was fabulous. My skin looks beautiful and I feel wonderful. I wish she lived in Phoenix/Scottsdale!

tina marleau

Great experience today!!! Thank you Taylor, I will definitely be back!

Larissa Zuk

Amanda was wonderful. Did an amazing job.

Sami Rubuliak

I went in to get my lashes done by Taylor and my experience was amazing. She was super friendly and did an amazing job. Go see Taylor for anything, she’ll treat you right! The place was also super clean, beautiful and relaxing.

Tara Lessoway

Beautiful spa! Had my first eyelash lift and tint from Amanda and I absolutely love how it turned out! Will definitely be back!

Megan Clements

I love this place for the experience! Staff are so friendly, and welcoming. The moment you walk in you feel luxurious and cared for, you will definitely be pampered and become stress free! Amazing pedicures, and great manicures. I only leave with little comments on my manicure because I'm really a perfectionist with my nails. I always come back and enjoy every minute of it!

Shelby Lindquist

Love the services and staff here. Very stylish atmosphere. I have received services from both Amanda and Taylor and the quality of service is great! Clean, professional, and very good treatments. Thanks again!

Debbie Bates

Once again, the service was excellent. Very pleased with results.

Charged me 120$ for a shellac pedicure

I love Studio J. I've been going for 7 years, even before it changed location to the larger space on Jasper Ave. The owner, Jillian, has very high standards, which are reflected in the quality the beauty services offered at the Spa. The esthetic services Studio J provides are impeccable, and the spa itself is kept immaculate. The staff are courteous, professional and fun. The spa offers a wonderful sitting room where you can indulge in magazines, chocolate, loose tea or french press coffee, and a variety of yummy snacks. In reference to the other reviewer's comments below, which gave the massage services a less than stellar appraisal, I would have to say I politely disagree. I've only had one massage at Studio J because I am not really a massage person, but it was great and Kristy was professional. With respect to the dog, Champ, he is about the size of a football, cute and friendly. I don't see how he could ever come off as aggressive given that he could fit in a bread box. He usually sits beside me while I relax on the bench getting a pedicure and I personally love it. If you hate dogs, I expect this is not the place for you. If you like quality pedicures, manicures, facials, or other esthetics this is a wonderful spa. The quality of service is reflected in the price. The location is fantastic if you feel like getting your nails done and then heading out for a glass of wine and a bite to eat.

Shaelyn Gandy

Made a mistake making my appointment and they accommodated me and even stayed a little late to finish up my lashes. Such friendly staff and very relaxing and welcoming environment!

Tayler Steinke

I had the most beautiful facial ever at studio J this past weekend! The spa is beautiful, clean and very relaxing! My skin has never felt better! The estitician that did my service was Amanda and she was great. The gave me the most amazing facial massage ever. Her technique was impeccable! I would 100% go back here again for other services as well!

Sherri Netter

Booked a group pedicure for 7 people. The staff and service was amazing, and the salon is beautiful. We had a wonderful time! Will definitely be back!

Katie Cedarbough

Amanda at Studio J Urban Spa was so delightful, professional and talented! Recently had a custom facial from her and will definitely be a return client. She had a very relaxing presence and my skin felt so thoroughly soothed and refreshed afterwards. Very adept as assessing my skin and matching it with appropriate products.

I love how calm and refreshing the space is!! I am always satisfied with the quality of service when I leave :) Taylor and Amanda both do a great job. Even if the downtown area isn’t necessarily where you would normally go for spa services, it would be worth the visit for sure.

Jennifer Carson

I had the most wonderful time getting my various services from Amanda. She was extremely professional yet very welcoming, friendly, and so easy to chat with. And I was very pleased with the outcome! Can’t wait for my next visit.

Sandra Edgecombe

A great place to be pampered. I went for a 60 minute relaxing manicure. I had had hand surgery a few weeks before and my tech was very gentle. This was the best manicure I have had by far. They also offer a great range of skin care and age repair services.

Dianne Kipnes

So nice to have such professional and covid-aware service.

Katie Bee

Me and my husband both got facials done by Amanda, she goes above and beyond. She is professional, has great attention to detail and makes you feel so calm and relaxed. I have super sensitive skin and my husband has the opposite, she came up with a customized facial for each of us that targeted our skins needs and that left our skin feeling amazing and looking beautiful! If you are looking for a great spa experience would highly recommend Amanda!

Kyrstin Layng

Amanda was great at fixing my brows. Took me with no appointment too. Great service

Stefania Kostiuk

Dayna did a gel polish for me, and on top of being extremely happy with my nails that were done with care and preciseness, I had a great and relaxing time. The spa has a relaxing ambiance and everyone is friendly with a top priority of creating a personal experience for you. I 10/10 am going again for other services as well, and reccomend others to do the same.

Karen Batiuk

This Place is Amazing.i recommend any service. Itvis relaxing atmosphere with wonderful Kindhearted staff. Try it..you will agree

Katrina Bjerky

Taylor's did an amazing job on my nails they look so amazing! She was chatty and friendly and easy to get along with. I wry much enjoyed my visit.

charmaine gibennus

The quality of service I found to be rather poor for the price. We have had better service, better results with much lower prices. I have no issue with a higher price if the quality matches, this was not so! Also disappointed that my co-worker left with product all over her face. The only good thing from this experience was the product used was great and it ate up an hour of office time :(
