Testimonials

“I could not have asked for a better experience at Southwest Day Spa!  The esthetician (Lucy, I think) was incredibly professional and fast.  She made me feel very comfortable.  The staff greeted me and made me feel relaxed.  I do not live in Boston, but I will definitely return to the spa when I visit the city again.  I also told multiple friends in Boston about my great experience.  MANY THANKS!!!”

“Recently I completed a program of Proton Beam Radiation at Mass General Hospital. The beam was aimed at my face and therefore I was told my skin, eyes, nose, and mouth would burn. Fortunately, they had prescriptions that helped with everything but the skin. I was told to purchase at the drugstore creams by Aquafor, Eucerin and Aveeno. I bought all of these but they only soothed and did not help. I went to Southwest Day Spa for a manicure and when the director, Levina, saw my skin she suggested some drops she uses as an aesthetist for facials. These were so successful at halting and healing the burning that even the radiologist asked for the name to offer to other patients. I highly recommend this treatment to protect any radiation sites, face or body, and suggest that they become a regular recommendation from teh proton beam program at the Yawkey Way.”

“Always a wonderful experience, whether coming in for manicures, Brazilians, or laser hair removal.  Staff is always accommodating and very friendly, prices are reasonable, and the place is always spotlessly clean.  The receptionist even recognizes my voice when I call to make an appointment.  Highly recommended!”

“Southwest Day Spa is like an oasis in the middle of the city. Look, getting the hair ripped out of your back isn’t exactly the number one activity on most guys’ lists. But here they make it tolerable. The atmosphere is terrific – relaxing and soothing. The staff is incredibly friendly. Walking in off of Beacon Street is always a pleasant change of pace. So if you’re a guy, and you’ve got back hair that has no earthly reason for being there, this is the place to go.”

“I’m 26 and have had acne off and on, but in the past couple of years it worsened.  Luckily, I found out about the treatments at Southwest Day Spa.  The laser and ultra-sonic facials targeted my problems and have improved my skin and have proven to be different from any acne treatment I’ve tried.  In only a month my face is clear, not red/irritated, and smoother.  Not only have the treatments cleared up my skin, they have made a world of difference to my self-esteem.  Thank you Levina!”

“Whether it’s for a manicure, pedicure, or wax, I always get 5-star service here. The atmosphere is surprisingly upscale, professional and welcoming. The staff is super friendly! I’ve been going here for the past 3 years (since way back when their Brazilian waxes were only $40! They’re $50 now) and I refer all of my friends to Southwest Day Spa. I usually see Levina or Lucy; both of them are quick and efficient! You won’t get this quality for a better price anywhere else in the area.”

“Hair removal central! Two thumbs up for SWDS. I first went to SWDS 2 years back based on the Yelp reviews I read and I must say I was not disappointed. Levina is F-A-B-U-L-O-U-S. The quickest and pain less Brazilian bikini and she shaped my eyebrows to perfection (Yes, they were quite terrible for some time). It’s truly amazing how eyebrows can change your face, if waxed properly. I’ve been using other services at SWDS and every session has been a great experience. The prices are affordable, the location is great. Very friendly staff. Ive been to a few other places in Boston, and I must say SWDS is the most reasonably priced hair removal facility for the quality of work that is being done.”
