If you are in need of a relaxing day at the spa, I suggest you go to Gene Juarez. This is a very nice, professional and clean day spa. They ave many different services to choose from as well as packages available too. I had a "spa day" where I had a message, facial, body wrap and a vichi shower. It was so great. The prices are comparable to other spas maybe slightly more but very much worth every penny.

I have been to that location about 3 times and will only go back if no other Hair Salon can fit me in and I am in desperate need of a haircut. They do a pretty good job on the haircuts but the stylists can be a little rude. One girl was so rough that I thought I would lose all of my hair. It was pretty painful. The prices are maybe just a little bit more than average.

Why do I keep taking my kids to Fun Kuts? It isn't the price -- they seem awfully steep for the short amount of time they spend on my boys' hair. And it isn't that the cuts are perfect -- more than a few stray, uncut hairs have popped up. But I keep going because the kids love it. It's designed for kids and the stylists are all great at working with the littlest tots. I've also seen some of the stylists pretty much ignore what parents ask for -- not cool.

Although this is a little far from my place now I have gone here for a couple of months. Most of the ladies are friendly but some times there is a wait to get a bed. The parking can be sparse if you go on a Saturday. They are located by Car Toys so even if you have to wait you can hop over there and shop. The tanning beds are great. I always got a wonderful tan.

I really like the laid-back feel here. Good sorta industrial look going on, but still very artsy, including gallery-like display of local art on the walls. The slogan here has something to do with being "daymakers", and they really do try to make your day--espresso machine to make coffee if you want it, little mini scalp massage during the hairwashing part of the haircut, fun conversation, etc. I've been generally very happy with my haircuts here. I try to get appointments with Patricia, the owner--she has a great eye for good style and how to hip me up a bit...

I know what you are talking about! That is the most pompous salon I have ever stepped foot into. I would never recommend this place to a friend or family! The manager bounces around and is obnoxious and demeaning.

Even if you have to pass a regular hospital on the way, Mary Bridge is where you need to go if your kid is sick enough to need a visit to the Emergency Room. Since it's a children's hospital, they are well-accustomed to the special problems and issues of children. You will ALWAYS be treated by a pediatrician. The only down side is that it shares a waiting room with Tacoma General and the layout of the E.R. can be kind of confusing -- just walk in and ask and you'll get good directions. The E.R. is located at the back side of the hospital and there are good directions to get to it.

I went to Gene Juarez (Tacoma) to have the experience, and to say I've been there. I was not impressed at all by the colorist. She was very rude, lacked customer service skills and hardly asked any questions about my hair or offered any explanation of what she was going to do with my hair. The stylist though, made the trip to GJ all worth it. He was very friendly, asked several questions about my hair, gave me tips on how to style it and was just over-all a very good person. He chose all my Bumble and Bumble products and walked them to the counter for me to purchase and he walked me to the counter where I paid for the services.

I'm in good shape. I do triathlons and run marathons, but as someone totally new to yoga, Bikram was not a good fit for me. Sure, instructors came to help me out, but I felt very singled out. There was no introduction -- just jump in and try to keep up with everyone else. I tried it for several months and never felt part of the gang.
