Don't bother with manis/pedis at this place- not worth the $

by bslug at Citysearch

I took advantage of the Travelzoo deal to get their spa mani/pedi for $35 when it came out a few months ago, which is supposed to normally cost $80. First off, had I known that they did not have real spa pedicure chairs, I never would have bought the deal. They had things made so that the old fashioned foot tubs could be placed in them. Secondly, the people who do the mani/pedis are hair stylists who don't happen to have a hair client at that time so they are not very good at polishing or massaging or details. I could have paid less than $35 to get better service/quality at my regular place. I don't know who would ever pay $30 for a mani or $50 for a pedi at this place. I hated having to tip off the original cost because the quality of the work was so bad, but I am not normally a bad tipper. So for $50 total, it was just a waste of money.

"Top notch Talent, Unsurpassed for hair, skin and products!New York City level!.......

by LisaNewberg at Citysearch

Pret-a-Porte is refreshingly talented for hair and skin services. Hard to find in San Diego county. Zip code or not, this gem should be sought out by all in La Jolla, Rancho Santa Fe and Fairbanks, there is no better. As a Los Angeles native, where the stars are....it is great to have Pret-A Porte- Dan and Roz Oserin.The newest Green Science facials and plant peels are splendid and Theresa a jewel, try it.

• Pros: Roz and Theresa for me, the products also.
• Cons: Parking slots, a challenge , but worth it

Two amazing experiences so far

by caitlinsaracco at Citysearch

I've had a full color + cut and a facial at Pret-a-Porter and both were among the best services that I have received, EVER. I am very happy with my hair (a unique, dark red color & layered cut) thanks to my stylist, Mandy. The facial that I had today with Theresa was a fabulous & relaxing experience (My skin feels sooo good right now). The products & people & services are great - I highly recommend this salon & spa.

Most relaxing spa ever.

by HarrietNiss at Citysearch

I love Pret a Porter, partly because of its beautiful, relaxing ambiance, but mostly because of the friendly atmosphere and high quality services provided for reasonable prices. I've been a customer since its doors opened and am likely to be going there until I'm too old to care about how I look and feel. Does that ever happen? I don't think so!

• Pros: Ambiance, skill level, friendliness.
• Cons: Parking a ittle tough.
