I loved the way that I immediately felt taken care of by Carla.  As a busy mom of 3 and business owner, I neglect myself like we all do, and... read more it was wonderful to be taken care of in a way that was just for me.  Carla's spa room is relaxing, and she is incredibly knowledgable about skin.  The microcurrent did something amazing to my face, I don't understand it, but I certainly can see the difference! Highly recommended!

  Ursula Gray is the best!  

I'm a mom, business owner and the lucky recipient of amazingly fast growing grey hairs. I'm so happy to have found Ursula! She is able... read more to seamlessly bring me back to life with fresh color and cuts, flexible time in her chair (I bring my laptop and work while she's coloring) and her personality makes me feel like I'm talking with an old friend.

Thank you for making me love getting my hair done, Ursula!

  Going to  see Carla at the Noe Valley Salon for a facial has always been a pleasure. The salon is spotless. She is a top professional, educating herself about the... read more newest products and procedures. She is careful about the history of my allergies and has taken careful notes to tailor the facials to what I need. She is also funny and very personable. Her neck massages are fantastic!
I think I have been going to Carla and her salon in Noe Valley for about 10 years. Luckily parking is good near her salon.  I recommend her highly!

  I found Carla on Yelp and decided to go hear after reading the great reviews about facials. She lived up to her rating! I got the deluxe signature facial: so... read more relaxing and so refreshing. You can book online; the system is super easy to use. Carla makes you feel feel welcome immediately and I highly recommend booking your next facial with her. Go deluxe and treat yourself, you won't regret it.

  This review is long overdue. My hair was a wirey mess and then I found Randy! He gave me a keratin treatment that transformed my hair. I am still in... read more awe. In addition to what he did for my hair, he was super friendly and fun to talk to. I will definitely return and highly recommend him!! The salon also has a chill and friendly vibe.

  I can't speak about anyone but Carla, but I can go on and on and on about how much I love Carla.

It all started back in 2004 or so. I... read more desperately needed to deal with my eyebrows. I didn't know where to turn, so I randomly picked a place close by. That place: NVS.

Carla took one look at my eyebrows and knew exactly what she needed to do. The rest is history.

Carla has continued to deal with my eyebrows, but she earned my trust enough to start giving me facials. Many times a year, I surrender myself to her expertise while she digs the most horrible things out of my face. For a few months after I see Carla, my face looks like that of a young Cindy Crawford or Grace Jones. It's incredible. Also, though: she's super nice and she makes me laugh.

No matter what, I'll never stop going to Carla. Even if she tries to get out of the business or something, I'll track her down and insist she dig more junk out of my face. She'll be doing facials on my children and their children and their children.

(but not any other children, because children don't need facials.)

  This review is for Carla Martino Skincare. I discovered Carla while doing a search for microcurrent facials and I'm so glad I did! The microcurrent is great - I did... read more a series of ten and am now on the once-a-month maintenance facial plan. But what's even better is Carla's passion for helping you achieve great skin. I love her honesty - I feel like everything she says and does is to help your skin look good and stay healthy, not to sell services you don't need. One other thing - I have oily skin prone to blackouts, so extractions are a must. Carla won't hesitate to dig in and clear you out!

  Ngoc is the bomb. I've been going to him for years in his various locations. If you're looking for precision and perfection in cut and color, ask for Ngoc. He's... read more the best in the area for short cuts. NVS is a great salon, too, in a great location, with a great team. I'm super happy coming here.

  Ursula is the best, there really isn't much more that needs saying.

The salon has a nice, modern vibe to it. It's located a few blocks up from the hustle and... read more bustle of 24th in Noe, so parking isn't much of an issue and when done you can pop down to 24th for lunch or some shopping.

  Had such an amazing and cozy experience here. My boyfriend and I had great conversation with stylist Randy, who gave me a perfect haircut and was so sweet. Great coffee,... read more will definitely be back next time I'm here 🙂
