About Faces Day Spa & Salon

I'd like to recommend my amazing stylist Brandon! He is an artistic genius! Great color, cuts, Highlights, updo's... He has such passion for doing hair and taking great care of his clients. Brandon used to work near DC before moving to Baltimore, and many of his DC and VA clients have followed him -- he's worth the drive! His clients love him! He really listens to you, and tries to capture exactly the results you are looking for. So creative!! About Faces at the shops at Kenilworth (where Stebbins is...) 410.828.8666 Beautiful shop, nice atmosphere! Easy to get to, good parking. more

best facial I have ever had. Will go back whenever I visit MD. more

I was referred to About Faces in Towson by a colleague. Before my first visit, I read quite a few very negative reviews of this salon. I was hoping that the reviews were wrong. I visited About Faces in Towson last night for the first time. IT WAS AWESOME!!! Don't believe everything you read when you see negative reviews. I am not sure what the negative reviewers were talking about. I am an African American woman (the salon is predominantly Caucasian), and I felt totally comfortable and welcome in this salon. I did not feel like anyone there was stuck up or unfriendly/unprofessional. The receptionist immediately greeted me in a very friendly, professional manner and walked me back to introduce me to my stylist, Chel Joyner. Chel was very friendly and professional as well. My wait was not very long at all. They respected my time, and Chel was not working on 10 other clients while I was being shampooed. By the way, the shampoo girl was very good. I felt like I was being shampooed by a massage therapist. It was very relaxing. Chel gave me a great hair cut. It was very precise. Before she cut my hair, she asked me what I wanted. She got my cut pretty much exactly like the picture that I brought in. I was in and out of the salon in a little over one hour. I am already scheduled for another appointment and will get a relaxer and color with Chel next time. I am very impressed with this salon, and I will be back regularly!! more

How would you all like it if someone came to your work and did nothing but bitch about you and how crappy you work? Do you bitchy clients know that after you complain about your service after the work has been done, that it comes out of the paycheck of the person who did your service? About faces takes money out of people's paychecks each time you complain, did you know that? How would YOU CLIENTS like it if you did an hour massage and then some nasty ass client goes to customer service and complains? How about clients take showers and wash yourselves prior to coming to the spa and learn how to tip? Can't afford it? Stay home then. The one who only complain about everything just to get it free can just stay home and you know who you are. Get a life, people that provide service have families too and all you do is bitch and complain. Peace more

I'm just a guy on a business trip in Baltimore. I really needed a haircut and a massage. Just got back from the About Faces in Towson. Wow! Danielle isn't messing around. She's a healer and gave me the best massage. Carly was my hairstylist. She really spent a lot of time with me and made my haircut exactly right for me. They made me feel great and I highly recommend you go there. This is my first review ever. more

Don't go to the Towson location; rude and gossip hairstylist named Mardie. Worst experience in a long time. more

Bad Spa. Bad Management- General Manager doesn't even know how to use the computer. Kenilworth location is too big too impersonal and the prices aren't worth the service you receive. No one is genuine.......yuck more

steph is great for color more

I had a great experience at About Faces in Canton. I received a pregnancy massage from AmyLynn and she did a great job. The salon itself is upscale and makes you feel spoiled with it's quiet room, lemon water, and spa pedicures overlooking the water. It's a bit pricey but worth it as a treat every once in a while! more

I am not a fan of chain spas but was really in need of a massage so I called the Towson location and was able to get in for a same-day appointment. The front desk was what you would expect at a spa/salon. It was busy and bussling and took a few seconds before someone noticed me. I was sent back to the spa area and told to wait for the spa coordinator. The spa area was quieter and the lights were nice and low.\r \r I didn't think much of the environment, it needed to be cleaned and the rooms didn't have much personality, just the basic equipment. The trick with these places for me is how good the therapist is. If the massage is great I don't care as much about the details. \r \r And that was the case here! My therapist was named Oh Soon and she was fantasctic! She listened to my requests and made sure to focus where I asked her to. She let me relax and didn't chat me up the whole time. So if you find yourself at About Faces in Towson ask for Oh Soon to get a great massage and you won't even more

A minor, yet important, observation - the waiting room on the 2nd floor could be a bit more spacious; sometimes conversations, laughter and exclamations are heard in the therapy rooms. more

My mother and I went for facials and it was great! It was her first time and the therapist completely explained everything to her and made her very comfortable. My therapist was a little late, which wasn't a problem, but I was scheduled for a pedicure immediately afterward, and because my facial started late, my pedicure started over 30 minutes late and my poor mother had to wait for me while I had it done. I would certainly go again for any treatment, because they really were fantastic, but I wasn't happy with the time issue. Overall, great, relaxing time and I appreciate not feeling pressured to buy any of their products. more

I had a Brazilian wax here with Guilena, and it was by far the best I have ever had, and I've been getting them done for 3 years. I had very little pain or discomfort, and the area looked the best it ever had after having one. I'm going back next week for my second appointment, and hopefully have the same experience. As for the comments that employees are 'rude,' I think either I'm relatively easy going, or others are just too sensitive, because I didn't feel that from anyone. more

I have been to a few nail salons in the area, I've never been ""WOWed"" but I have been satisfied. That is until I got cut at Star Tips and realized how unsanitary many of these places were. I decided to try a more upscale nail salon and I had the most AMAZING experience. I visited the About Faces in Timonium and saw Janice, and my sister saw Anastasia. I got a french manicure and my sister got a regular manicure. As soon as we walked in, we were welcomed by Ashley (very pretty and smiley!) who immediately offered us something to drink while we waited (we only ended up waiting for a minute or so) and she led us back to the nail part of About Faces, where we were offered a drink again (how nice!). We were immediately set down and those ladies made you feel like you were best friends all your lives! They did a beautiful job on both of us and I wanted to stay longer just to keep talking with them! As we left they offered us some tea to bring with us on our way home, they obviously cared about us! It was a little more expensive then I'm used to but you get what you pay for and I tell you, it was WORTH IT. I cant wait to go back again!!!! Pros: clean, sanitary, friendly staff, QUALITY, great experience Cons: expensive more

I arrived way early for my appointment, so I was escorted to a lovely, relaxing space where I drank tea and ate cookies until my time arrived. It was wonderful. I received a wonderful cut and color from Lisa, and went home a very happy customer. Pros: Great color, great atmosphere more

Went in to get my haircut and colored and they do a good job with my spike and will definitely go back again. plus the girls there are hott!!! Thank You! Pros: Friendly staff more

It's rare to find a colorist and stylist who actually listens to what you want. Lisa Perry at About Faces in Canton is that person. She makes suggestions to solve your individual hair problems and suggests (but doesn't push) the products they sell. I switched to Lisa six months ago. Sure, it's a few dollars more than my previous salon, but worth every penny. Pros: Listens, listens, listens Cons: A bit more expensive more

I live in West Virginia and have been to Lisa for color - because she is worth the drive! She listened and did exactly what I asked her to do! No more, no less, which is what we ALL want in a stylist, right? I like to be heard and not just be an empty canvas. She did the color I wanted when I asked for a little more red the next time she gave me just what I wanted! I wanted to go short and she gave me a very flattering cut for my face. I won't go to anyone else!! more

I would like to comment about Lisa Perry at About Faces in Canton. I have been going to Lisa for my hair cuts for the past 2 1/2 years and have never had a bad experience. I would reccommend her to anyone looking for only the best salon experience. Even my sister travels 2 hours from out of town for her to do her color and style. The atmosphere is amazing as well, with a great view of the harbor. From the front desk to the final touches, About Faces is a great place to go. Pros: Great Hair Cut more

We booked a spa day for a group of our Girlfriends that are very hard working and needed a day of pamering. The locker rooms leave a lot to be desired. They are poorly decorated and do not have a "spa feel" to them whatsoever! It is similar to a YMCA facility. The lounge needs to be redorated and remodeled to bring the environment at a 5 star spa level. Their rasberry tea is out of this world and deserves 5 stars. The paper underware they give you leaves a lot to be desired. they do not seem to focus on those that prefer a more discreate Vichi Shower experience. The spa treatments were nice, but not at a 5 star level of service or experience. I would come back for a Pedi, but not a spa treatment. more
