2025-10-07For my first experience going to Bella on the Bay, it was great. Everyone was very friendly and helpful. I had a massage and a facial. Alayna did the facial and tinted my eyebrows. Jeana gave me my massage. It was a great experience with both ladies. I would definitely come back. Linda

2025-05-24**5/5 Stars - Excellent Hair Color Experience** I had a wonderful experience with Ashley for my hair color service. From start to finish, she demonstrated exceptional professionalism and skill. Her communication was outstanding - she clearly outlined the appointment details and made sure I knew exactly what to expect. What impressed me most was how thorough Ashley was during our consultation. She asked detailed questions about my vision for the color and really listened to what I wanted to achieve. I felt comfortable sharing my ideas with her because she created such a non-judgmental, welcoming environment. Ashley's gentle approach made the entire process relaxing and enjoyable. She was careful and attentive throughout the appointment, which I really appreciated. The final result exceeded my expectations - the color turned out beautifully and exactly what I was hoping for. I would definitely recommend Ashley to anyone looking for a skilled colorist who takes the time to understand your needs and delivers excellent results. Her combination of technical expertise and caring customer service makes her stand out.
