REVIEWS
- I am used to the purple hot wax from European Wax Center so I was new to sugaring. I was so nervous however Awura-Abena is very sweet and made conversation with me to which made me less nervous. She did an amazing job. It's been about two weeks since my last Brazilian I had done by her and I'm still satisfied with the results. 100%% recommend!!- Tai Olivia. 9/3/2019
- I couldn't be more ecstatic about the level of service and final product I received from Alta. Awura-Abena went above and beyond to get me ready for my wedding day including staying after-hours to finish tediously applying my lash extensions and meticulously waxing. She was friendly, professional, and an expert at everything she does. I couldn't recommend Alta any more, I definitely will be returning in the future!- Jenelle Whalon. 8/5/2019
- I recommend Alta Spa to everyone. It’s truly a gem. The service is fantastic- easily the best I’ve ever seen. Awura-Abena is kind, patient, knowledgeable, and will do everything to ensure a comfortable experience. It was my first time getting sugared, and definitely not my last! Will be going here for all treatments from now on.- Sasha An. 6/23/2019
- I never write reviews, but this place is the best in Ithaca by far! I've been getting waxing done for years and have never experienced such good results and so little pain/irritation. You know how people in Ithaca are always talking about going to other cities for haircuts, spa services, etc.? Well, in a testament to how great this place is, I've recently been working in NYC and have preferred to wait til I'm back in Ithaca, so I can go to Alta Spa.- Phoebe Strom. 4/17/2019
- My experience was great. I had my first sugar wax brazilian and Awura Abena (the owner) was very thorough and gentle. She was very patient and understanding and answered all my questions. I won't lie it does hurt, but she is fast and thorough. She made my first experience very comfortable and relaxing. I can't attest to how long it will last or if it's worth the money since it's my first time and just had it done today. But I have re-booked for a second sugar wax in 4 weeks and will post another review then. I am very happy with my experience and this spa thus far. Very clean and professional service.- Brenda Coyle. 3/27/2019
- Super friendly owner who was able to fit me in for a last minute sugaring appointment. I'm very happy with the results, especially since it was the first time I've ever had it done. Clean facilities, professional services (she knew her stuff!) and friendly atmosphere. Highly recommend.- Mica Verendia. 2/24/2019
- Alta Spa is an incredible gem in Ithaca. The owner, Awura-Abena, is knowledgeable, patient, and precise with her clients. I scheduled a same-day appointment for an eyebrow waxing using the sugaring method. It was painless and the results were remarkable. I highly recommend this establishment--it offers topnotch services guided by a charismatic and talented owner. I am extremely happy to have found a repeat salon/spa!- Lauren Siegel. 0/19/2019
- Ms.Awura-Abena Anshan the owner of Alta, what a wonderful human being, as a man I was apprehensive at least entering the spa for a first time sugaring treatment. The experience was excellent and the time spend with Acura-Abena was a delight. Very clean and professional and understanding of my apprehension, I was made feel very relaxed and comfortable within minutes. I have returned and will continue to book appointments regularly here. I highly recommend Alta Spa to anyone, men especially for a first experience in hair removal, you to will return. Be sure to use the first time coupon,relax and enjoy the professional and personal Awura-Abena at Alta Spa. You’ll be very happy you did.- Mark Terry. 0/14/2019
- This was the most amazing experience I think I will ever have at a spa. I got a Brazilian with the sugaring, and she was very attentive, careful, warm and welcoming. 10 out of 10 would recommend, and I definitely will be coming back for my next sugaring! I actually had to give her a hug when we were done cause she was so amazing. Felt like family!- Sabrina Shuman. 9/31/2018
- Alta Spa is a great place to go for anyone sensitive to waxing! I have had trouble in the past with breakouts due to waxing, but Auruwa's use of sugaring is so gentle on my skin. I always leave without any sensitivity and very little redness. I highly recommend and will definitely return in the future. :)- Margot Wegman. 4/17/2018
- I have now been getting a regular monthly sugar waxing Brazilian. Previously I was just getting normal waxing and having to do it every 3 weeks. I have lasted much longer with the sugar waxing. Now people say that it hurts less, I’m not going to lie it all hurts about the same but wouldn’t you want to go with something that has longer lasting results? I sure do because I definitely didn’t like having to go back so often. Even going once a month I still have some bald spots! I would recommend this service to anyone that has been questioning trying it out!!!- Rebecca Babbitt. 10/22/2017
- This is the first time I write a review. I simply had to! The service was excellent! I recently got my lashes done for graduation and they came out perfect. I love them, they look so natural which it was one of my concerns that they were not going to look natural but they really do! The price is totally worth it. Awura-Abena was wonderful and even decided to see me after business hours. She was so professional and helped me a lot by staying extra time to attend me. I 100%% recommend this place and I would say it is one of the best places here in Ithaca.- Elsa Orozco. 5/2/2017
- Alta Spa is my one-stop-shop for any luxury beauty service or product. It is by far my favorite spa in Ithaca; I always leave glowing, and feeling beautiful and rejuvenated! Be sure to check it out if you're in town - don't miss out on the opportunity to pamper yourself... you deserve it! Alta Spa surrounds you with a warm atmosphere and peaceful ambiance, and in my opinion is the most professional of all spas in Ithaca. Be sure to stop in next time you're downtown to experience this hidden gem in the Ithaca Commons smile emoticon- Elena Cohen. 10/25/2015
- I have been going here for many years and have yet to be disappointed. I have sensitive skin and the European facial was very relaxing and did not irritate my face after. The sugaring wax is also amazing for my skin, I had my eyebrows waxed and got a Brazilian wax that lasted for a over a month! I also love the make-up selection because it caters to people of color. I would highly recommend Alta Spa!- Lydia Hickson. 7/21/2014
- My first experience at Alta Spa was one that easily convinced me to become a regular client for sure! This is truly a unique spa in that it is a small business personally run by the owner, Awura-Abena, who is an extremely kind and welcoming spa specialist. She made me feel very comfortable and in safe hands. She had me laughing the entire time! I tried a brazilian sugaring for the first time and was extremely pleased. I would highly recommend this spa! If anything you should just go in and chat a while with Awura-Abena because she's actually awesome!- Sarah Miller. 1/22/2014
- Alta Spa what a great place. Ithaca's best kept secret. Not only do you get top of the line service but as well my friend is very knowledgeable. It is an experience not to miss she is very kind, compassionate and funny and will spend every moment you need catering to you're needs. If you need any spa treatment this is the only place in Ithaca to go..- chris lash. 11/3/2013
- I had always heard good things about Alta Spa and owner Awura-Avena, so on my last trip to Ithaca I decided to go there for a haircut. I walked in knowing that I wanted short hair. That is all. I left Awura-Avena decide on what exactly needed to be done. She played with my hair for a while -to sort of see or feel what she could do with it. And I just love the result! Every body is complementing my hair now. I am so glad that I walked in with an open mind and just let her do her thing. She is great! I will definitely visit Alta Spa again. Thank you Awura-Avena!- Maria Mercedes Franco. 8/10/2012
- I visited Alta Spa on the last day of my vacation in Ithaca. It was a very relaxing experience, and the perfect way to end my trip. The owner, Awura Abena, put a lot of time and care into her work. I have very sensitive skin and nails, and usually come away sore after spa treatments. Not so this time. She also gave me good advice on a lovely platnium colour that I normally would not have chosen, but am thoroughly enjoying. Awura Abena is a former ESL teacher, and as I teach English Language Learners myself, we passed the time sharing stories. I felt very comfortable with her and enjoyed learning all about her fascinating life. I plan to visit Alta Spa on my next trip to Ithaca.- Emily Elliott. 7/17/2012
- I just had the most wonderful experience at Alta Spa in Ithaca. The owner Awura-Abena is a beautiful, warm and personable lady with a firm hand (which I happen to like) who runs her business with a lot of passion and skill. I came in for a microdermabrasion, a facial and a brazilian wax and I couldn't be happier. Too bad I don't live closer and cannot have her as my regular beautician...- Ricky Gumbrecht. 6/5/2012
