I love the Elliven Spa staff, they are always professional and very friendly, a blast to be around and their work is impeccable. It is the greatest place to go for an hour or so a couple times a month to relax, laugh and rejuvenate. My nails are always on point, perfect and I get tons of compliments on them.

Shawnie is a nail wizard and never disappoints even though I ask for some crazy things sometimes. After three years with her, I don’t think I can ever see someone else.
Victoria gave me the best pedicure of my life, too.
Ashley, the owner, is a ray of sunshine.
Even Joyce is a doll! Want a standing appointment? She’ll make sure you’re booked for the next decade.

Elliven Spa is my favorite place to escape for all things beauty and more! The lobby is beautifully decorated and inviting! I always try to arrive a few minutes early so I have time to look around. The attention to detail, cleanliness and all around atmosphere is perfection!
My nails are always perfectly polished and the pedicures are amazing! The absolute best massages I’ve ever had anywhere! I always schedule my next appointments before I leave.
Elliven Spa is a must see!

I’ve had nothing but great experiences at Elliven for both nails and massage! Shawnie is truly the most talented nail artist I’ve ever met and I’ve been a loyal client for years. She is creative, insanely talented, nothing but professional, and my nails always look gorgeous. I truly get compliments on them everywhere I go! The salon is super clean and the receptionists are always so friendly and helpful. Nothing but great experiences at Elliven!

I have been going to Elliven Spa every 3 weeks to get my nails done for over a year now. Shawnie gives me the nails of my dreams each and every time I go see her. She is truly the most talented nail artist ever!!! I am her self-proclaimed #1 fan! Everyone at the spa is always so sweet. I can’t say enough good things about this place! If you haven’t already, you should definitely check them out!

If you’re looking for the best manicure and nail art of your life, Shawnie at Elliven Spa is your girl. The salon is always clean, everyone is friendly and professional, and Shawnie is more than a nail technician, she is a true artist. She is able to perfectly recreate everything I dream up. My appointments with her are so enjoyable and I really look forward to them every 2 weeks.

Elliven Spa is a wonderful establishment. Both the owner and the staff are lovely and attentive. Everyone made me feel welcome and as if we were already friends. I had a pedicure and a massage. The pedicure lasted several weeks🙌🏻 And I fell asleep during the massage😂 The boutique up front is fabulous and ranges from essentials, to items you didn’t know you needed❤️ Looking forward to returning the next time I’m in Pittsburg.

What an amazing experience!!! Every time I get a treatment whether it’s a fabulous manicure, meticulous waxing, luxurious lash lift or a “dyed to perfection” brow tint… I leave feeling wonderful! Ashley, (the owner) has extraordinary taste which allows her customers to leave with not only a top notch salon experience but, … a stunning beaded clutch, hand and body lotions that smell scintillating, a staggering selection of hair products, fun and fanciful jewelry and even swag for your pooch!!! Truly a destination! I am a customer for life!!!

I'm so glad I found this spa near my house! Kay is the massage therapist and I've been going to her for about a year. She is so sweet, soft spoken, and a phenomenal massage therapist with a great energy. I always leave feeling so much better since she really listens to your needs and what your body is telling her. I've received the following services and all have been great: Fire and Ice Massage; Integrative Massages with an add on of Reiki; and a dry brushing session with Jamie who was also great! The environment does not feel like you're in a building in a plaza at all. The

For my first time ever at Elliven Spa, I had a wonderful experience! The front desk was friendly and offered me a drink while I waited (which wasn't long at all). I had scheduled a 90 min Swedish massage which was absolutely AHmazing. Very relaxing and much needed. I felt so great leaving. If you are looking to treat yourself to a nice spa day, I highly recommend Elliven Spa!

I've been going to Elliven Spa for about 4 years now and I'm very pleased with the service here. I find that what makes them unique is how much they prioritize keeping your hair, skin, and nails healthy. A lot of salons just care about the outcome but with Elliven they ensure that your service is done without doing damage, which is very easy to do when you're getting a salon service.
I recently just got my hair done by Rae who did an absolutely PHENOMENAL job!! I have naturally dark hair that i bounce back and forth between dark and light. Every hairstylist who has colored my hair

I wanted to love this place and was very close to doing so. The staff was great. I had a good experience with the service (mani and pedi) and enjoyed the company but after we were finished I noticed there was a lot of my nail left unpolished. The same side of all my nails. Maybe I'm just picky but I like my entire nail to have polish on it. I'm deciding if I should repaint them all or find a matching color to just do the sides with? Also, the website says that a new nail file is used for each client but the one used on my nails definitely had been used previously. It was sprayed with

I have been going to Elliven Hair Salon for 3 years now. I can assure you that I have had nothing but positive experiences there. While I don't need hair coloring or a fancy updo, I can tell you that this place does a solid job on a men's haircut.
If you are lucky enough to be there one of the days where they have homemade cookies, make sure you score one, you will not regret it.

Don't waste your money here for the sake of the convenience of not driving to the city. Angela, who claimed to have 20+ years of experience, bleached my hair after I specifically told her not to and then convinced me to buy extensions. After six weeks, she was supposed to take them out and redo my roots. Instead she decided to bleach my roots with them still attached. They were attached with copper beads. Yep, the copper reacted with the bleach and... Burned my hair. When I was taken to the wash bowl and shampooed most of the hair that had extensions attached ended up in the wash bowl

Unprofessional. Came for a fire and ice hot stone massage treatment scheduled for 10am. Arrived at 10:05am and the receptionist stayed on the phone for several minutes while we waited. When the masseuse came out she states we can't do your treatment because you were late. I explained that the receptionist was on the phone. She refused to do the service and offered to do something else instead.....or give a gift card to come back. I am going to save myself the aggravation and avoid this unprofessional staff.

I went to Elliven Spa for the first time this week with a girlfriend for a pedicure. Upon walking into the spa, which is very neat and clean and smells wonderful, I was greeted by the hostess and offered a glass of sangria, chardonnay, chablis, etc. It was awesome! I went for the sangria which was delicious. We waited under five minutes and were shown to our chairs, picked out our nail color from the incredibly organized color wall, as well as picked out our scent for the bath salts (I went with mango coconut). Kate did my pedicure and she was AMAZING. If you are going to schedule, definitely request
