Everyone knows the importance of treating yourself to something nice every now and again. And living in Millbrae means that the answer to this is right around the corner for most of you - The Spot, located on the corner of El Camino Real and Park Place.
A one stop shop for all your beauty needs including hair, skin, nails, and Xtreme Lashes (eyelash extensions), The Spot reminds me of a place I would see in a chick flick with customers talking, laughing, having fun, enjoying refreshments, and smiling. With the exception of the more quiet & relaxing facial room (unless you are getting waxed that is!) its all good times here at this spot.
The first time I entered this salon years ago, I was blown away by the clean and colorful atmosphere. With a spacious lobby, waiting area and its fun and its cheerful decor, I almost knew for sure that I would be back- and I had not even made it into my treatment. Each beauty provider has their own space that is decorated to fit their personality; which I found to be important because it gave me a little insight into the individual, provided great conversation openers, and made me feel as though that person takes pride in their presentation and will take pride in their work. I myself, having a weakness for style, found this very exciting.

As far as cleanliness is concerned, I must say this is one of the most kept up maintained places I have ever been to. The general area is always neat and well put together, as is each individual treatment room.
One thing I always find important when working with anyone or receiving a treatment of any nature, is the attitude and enthusiasm of the person hard at work to provide the service. It is never a secret when someone dislikes their job; and usually it is a reflection of what you are in store for, and what you are paying for. The ladies at The Spot all love what they do, and here is what a couple had to say about their work....

Dianna Almada - (Xtreme Lashes/Nails) " I love my work because I enjoy helping people look young and feel youthful. My job takes alot of patience, but I enjoy making people feel their best and it is worth it."
Stephanie Buitrago - (Hairstylist) "I adore what I do! I am a forensic hair specialist and care about teaching YOU how to do your own hair ! I can make it look easy , but you need to know what your doing wrong and how to break old habits , I am realistic and don't mince words . But the bottom line is 'I care about hair' period!"
Happy employees who love going to work everyday make happy clients. It seems as though all the women here want to make you feel as good as they would want to feel on the other side of the chair. I've had a great time and always leave feeling gorgeous and confident. This is definately a place to visit.
