Since I moved to Philadelphia, I was desperately looking for a Japanese (or Asian) hair stylist to cut my hair. Before I found Miki, I used to go to NYC for a hair cut. But since I found her, I followed her wherever she goes and I really appreciated that she choose an organic hair salon again, because I have so many allergies and I have sensitive skin.
In December 2009, I followed her to her new salon ""Cole Wellness Spa"" that I felt was very inviting, eco-friendly and peaceful. This place doesn't smell bad like normal salons and when I walked in there, I felt a good energy!
One time, I had facial by Kim. Before Kim gave me a facial, I hadn't had a facial for a few years. I am the kind of person that I think Asian beautician is the best of the world! But she gave me a wonderful facial massage that changed my theory. Well, it was not only a luxurious sweet time because I haven't done for anything for my face in a few years! I'm sure I had too much dead skin. So when she was removing layers of dead skin, I almost cried. But I know I needed it and after she gave me all treatments, my face brightened up and I look amazingly different!!
Another time, I had a massage from Betsy. She is a very sweet person and good masseuse! Again, after having many massages in America, I still thought that Asian masseuses are the best. Betsy is the first one to put me to sleep!!! So I was sleeping when she was massaging me, so I don't remember much. But I can tell she is a great masseuse because she putted me to sleep and I feel great!!!
If you are looking for a place for your hair or body, try Cole Wellness! I think prices are a little bit pricey, but it's more than worth it!
Pros: Organic hair color and friendly people
