At the end of a hectic work week, wouldn’t you want to wind down and relax in a quiet spot, enjoying the serenity as time goes by? Borne out of such belief, mom and I went to Princess Hazel Salon & Spa along Quezon Avenue last Saturday for a mother and daughter bonding time to flee away from reality.
Review of Princess Hazel Salon & Spa (Pacific Century Tower, Quezon Avenue)
Ambiance: β β β β β
Juxtaposed against the bustling streets of Quezon City along Quezon Avenue, this beauty center has an ambiance that makes up for an immediate chance in mood as you step through its door. The details and props in display renders you to slow down and take a second look. Accessories for a darling princess and everything for a girly girl are all arranged neatly on shelves by the entrance.
Past the reception area, gold and purple chairs and stacks of branded nail polish colors welcome customers abound. These are definitely more than what I expected to find in a normal salon. Walking further, we found a vanity dresser with lights and the chandelier catching our attention spot on. I like to have this room in our home! Princess Hazel Salon & Spa is very clean, comfortable and stylish.
Service: β β β β β
We came by reservation as Princess Hazel Salon & Spa prefers it that way rather than walk-ins. Especially during weekends, they have a long list of customers whose names are already listed as expected to come by. Walk-in customers are often advised to visit on another day if there’s no open slot.
I stated my name and we were led to the area specific to where the services would be done: hair spa for me and manicure + pedicure for my mom. The ends of my hair are dry, but I don’t want to have my hair cut anytime soon. Hair spa must be the perfect treatment to have better nutrition and smoothness to the hair. As much as it improves blood circulation, hair spa is also a good instant remedy to remove mental stress and worldly tensions. Hair results to be delivered beautifully without tangles.
The staff first washed my hair then applied the L’Oreal hair spa cream. She massaged my scalp, spread the cream evenly on the hair strands and set the timer to 20 minutes. The product used was enriched with cooling menthol that’s able to free the scalp as well from impurities like sweat, sebum and dandruff. While waiting, I received a nice back massage to soothe my uber tired and stiff muscles. It was relaxing! π When time was up, the staff rinsed my hair and used a hair dryer to get my hair dry fast. It was another good experience overall.
Mom was also satisfied with the ORLY Green Apple (her favorite color) she selected. Her fingernails and toenails are now clean and pretty. What’s noteworthy about Princess Hazel Salon and Spa’s nail polish service is that there’s no added cost if customers choose high-quality nail polishes like those of O.P.I., Zoya, Orly, and Essie.
Princess Hazel Salon & Spa also offers waxing, body scrubs, eyelash alterations, massage, facial, hair and make-up, Brazilian Blowouts, D2 Treatments, Nou Nou Treatments, hair rebonding and radio frequency for body contouring.
Price for Value: β β β β β
Considering the service and ambiance at Princess Hazel Salon & Spa, prices are at par with the value. This is a one-stop center to visit if you want to have a super-chic, collaborative experience. I’m thrilled to pass by another day after receiving the “loyalty card” they gave me before we left. Customers here get to have a point or a stamp in a card. Points or stamps are earned per visit and a certain accumulation will grant a certain service for free. Here’s the price list:
In addition, Princess Hazel Salon & Spa has daily discounts from Monday to Friday this September. Everything is 50% off during Mondays; 40% off, Tuesdays; 30% off, Wednesdays; 20% off, Thursdays; and 10% off, Fridays, according to the staff.
As I browsed through their Facebook page, I learned that they offer different promos every month, so make yourself a favor and visit their Facebook page or call them up to take advantage of ongoing deals. π

You experienced the most refreshing feeling for yourself and your mom. Lucky enough, this beauty salon really has a classy type of service.
Yeah I’m sure we’ll be back next time. I want to try their nail arts! π
You deserve to be treated like a Princess since you work so hard with your work and on events.
Thanks, Franc. You should also try receiving some of their services because they are not only for girls. π The staffs here are good at rotating customers so no one sits too long, and everyone is out in good time. The atmosphere is relaxed, clean and orderly. You will love it.
I’ll try it out Roch. This was the day before the Ensure race right? That explains why you were so pretty in the race.
Haha yes. Thanks, Franc. Natawa ako. π
Refreshing post I love the pedicure and manicure experience. xxx
My mom loves to be pampered and if possible she likes to visit a salon once a week. The mani-pedi treatment was perfect for her. β₯
So love the place, pampering like a princess! Service is great too because they give LOYALTY CARD to their customers and also DISCOUNTS.
Hope they put a branch here in Davao City. I really like their services.
In addition, I am also hoping that they add up a branch nearer to my place in Manila — so that I can come after working hours on a weekday. π
Yeah I have my eyes all over the discounts! π Promotions never fail to broaden a fanbase and create new customers especially for new businesses like Princess Hazel Salon and Spa.
Wow this looks like a place I would love to go and pamper myself! I am sure you and your mom had the most amazing experience!
Yes, we did. π
is there any Massag…. give me a chance your all pain will remove
Yup, they offer massages and they have private cubicles on the second floor where customers can take delight in relaxing and staying free from stress during the session.
This salon sounds and looks so luxurious! I could definitely use some pampering in this kind of salon
They have special packages that are great for you. I’m sure you will want to get at least one. π
A very nice way to pamper yourself. The place interior is just perfect and both of you and your mom are Princesses in their your own right.
Hehe thanks, Papa Leng. You definitely will get your money’s worth here!
Sounds like a great day! I would love to head to a spa and get pampered like that.
Yeah we need a breather like this every once in a while. π
Looks like a great place to pamper yourself! Nice ambiance, and I love the polish color your mom chose!
I liked that it’s fast drying. π I can get pretty much everything the nail salon uses and the price is just right.
Truly a royal treatment complete with a throne and crown! Visiting Pinas soon so I can’t wait to go to the salons and spas. So expensive here so will indulge in Manila instead.
That’s so true! When compared to prices of salon and spa services in other countries, prices here in Manila are damn cheap. Choose from a dynamic palette composed of subtle sheers, vivid cremes, dazzling shimmers, smooth glitters and hot neons from Princess Hazel’s nail polishes. π
If I’m in the area I might swing by. I noticed their selection of nail colors from top brands, that’s awesome. And the manicure and pedicure cleaning in Pinas is totally different, ang linis talaga. Dito parang hinipan lang kuko mo, pwede na!
Haha that’s funny. Iba talaga dito, masinsinan ang gawa. π
woah that 50% off on mondays! that’s a crazy deal! i’ve been hearing good reviews about this salon and it’s just near our place! i guess it’s about time i buy their voucher from sampleroom.ph! >XD
Mom suggested that we go back there on a Monday night after work. I have some hesitation because of traffic jam expected from Pasay to Q. Ave. I am hopeful that they open up a branch in MOA so that I can just walk from our office to get there! π
That place looks amazing!
It is. I absolutely love the decors and the good selection of nail polish (which I get crazy about). π
This looks like a well done salon and spa. I actually have to travel at least an hour for something just as fancy or fancier that offer similar services.
They should think about approaching any mommy blogger or female blogger or women in business meetup groups and offer specials. We do that out here with some of the spas.
I see. That’s a great idea! Specials are always attention-grabbing. π
Looks like a great place to get some R&R for ladies!
Yeah. They got a steady supply of the season’s collections and some classics are in stock, too. A polish-loving girl likes to get down to her roots! π
What a fancy looking place!
Make sure you contact them first to book for a reservation before coming. π
It looks like such a relaxing and inviting place. I would love to come pamper myself here!
You should do that. π We deserve this kind of treatment.
This looks like a place my wife and daughter would probably frequent on their girl dates.. they like to be pampered once in a while and rightfully so.
You can also join in the date so you three can bond together as a family in this spa and salon. There are men who haven’t tried nail cleaning or nail polish. It’s good to have your nails done at least once, or maybe you will like it and make it as a routine next time. π
What a great way to relax and enjoy the afternoon with your mom. I would love to do this with my mom.
There’s nothing to complain about it. I’m sure you and your mom would love this place. π
It looks like a cute little place! I’ve really been in to doing my nails lately. I need to see a salon more often.
Enter Princess Hazel Salon and Spa and see yourself in a beauty heaven, or palace for that matter. You can wear the crown all the way. π
I’ve never been to a spa like this before, I would love to go there.
This is a great place to go whenever you feel bored in any day. π
Oh my gosh this place looks so cute! This is definitely a spot I’d love to go to!
It will make you wonder why the hell other places charge so much. π
That looks so much fun. I have never been to spa before. Would love to some time.
This is a girlie girls’ heaven! The staffs are helpful. Super nice. π
Thank goodness they have a theme to make sense of the loud colors! Sounds like a good place to go!
I like salons with themes. It’s right timing that the princess-y theme is something that tops my list! π
I would absolutely love that kind of pampering. It sounds like a place worth visiting for sure.
Try their services one time and you’ll not regret coming into this salon. Its small, quaint relaxation area allowed us to unwind. The products are high quality and the availability of time slots are accommodating.
Sounds like a lovely place to get pampered! Makes me want to find somewhere around here I can go π
Yup. It’s easy to find in the maps, just beside Crossings, National Bookstore along Quezon Avenue. π
Looking pretty dear, the spa also looking royal, hope you have a great time
Yup. I also like that they have aromatherapy which helps set in the mood for relaxation.
Such a relaxing hair spa session.. I wish to have one, too!
I can’t remember the last time I’ve had hair spa before this. I should do it once a month at least because I have colored hair. π
Great! Very classy and cozy spa.. Price doesn’t matter when it comes to the best service.
To an extent, it does. “Best” has a lot of levels and too profound a word.
You always pampered yourself with hair treatment, eyebrows, skin care, nail arts, mooncakes, prizes, events, gifts and etciteras…in life. Great!
Haha yeah these are the things I do outside the office – feels very different but they’re all great!
Lovely! Luxury at its best!I can see that You were really pampered and that you enjoyed every bit of it!
The good news is that availing of their services won’t make you feel that they’re luxurious on the pocket because they’re so affordable and reasonable.
I’d like to stretch out and take a nap after reading this! Great review. π
Thanks, Regina! This is just relaxing. π
Super love the interiors right? I loved my visit there too. Definitely trying their mani pedi next time. I didn’t know that they didn’t charge extra for the more expensive brands, other spas charge 50-100 pesos more for that.
Yeah. The staffs told us that and that made me want to go for another mani-pedi experience next time. I’ve also browsed through the nail arts for inspiration and found that they’re super nice. π
How lovely! This reminds me that I’m long overdue for a spa and salon trip.
Hehe there’s no stopping you from going to the spa this weekend. π
This place would make you feel like a princess indeed. I would love to go there one day. Glad to see you had an awesome time. Thanks for sharing.
You’re much welcome, Rebecca. This place is a must-go! π
looks like a great getaway!
Yup, it’s a great getaway while still in the city. π
Wow, this salon is every girl’s dream! It is the best way to pamper yourself with quality cosmetics and beauty procedures. I need to visit such places more often to feel womanly, and more confident in my seductive power as a female. Love this post!
Thanks, Vanessa. May this serve as a reminder for everyone (including myself) that we deserve getting pampered like a real women. π
I love those big chairs! What a treat of a day, I think this spa would be very fun to visit.
The “royal” chairs were really comfy to sit on. Visit it soon, Rosey. You’ll love the experience. π
Pampered and spoiled! Oh yeah, that’s the way I’d like to spend my day for sure! Thanks for sharing. Looks like very happy smiles π
You’re welcome! Hey, you have the same name as my mom, Dolly. π
Wow this looks like such an amazing place to go to and get pampered. I really love the green polish you picked out as well π
My mom picked that because it’s her favorite color. π
How luxurious! I think I need a bit of pampering. Something like this would be just perfect!
In visiting Princess Hazel Salon and Spa, I’m torn between the weekends and the weekdays. Of course weekends would be more convenient but it’s hard to turn my back at the discounts waiting from Mon-Fri as well. π
what a great place to spend an afternoon and escape! I love the selection of nail colours. Would be hard to choose, LOL
You’re so right. π It normally takes long for me to choose only one color for nail polish.
I have to say that I love the decor! & the crowns really cap of the whole salon/spa experience.
Totally! This place is a winner in all those aspects. π
What a colorful place! I also love the idea of giving you crowns to wear. Perfect fun outing.
The place is absolutely nice. The ambiance makes customers feel relaxed and comfortable. Wearing crowns while doing the treatment is extra fun!
This looks like so much fun! Perfect for getting all pampered!
Yeah. I envy those who are just near their location, those who can avail of the discounted services on the weekdays.
Hi, even the massage is 50% off during Mondays? I’d love to try it and their other services. This is good news, since the location is near my office.
Yes. That’s what the poster says. π Try it!
I love one-stop shops. Looks like a good place.
You can stay here for hours and come out more dashingly beautiful. π
Now I miss my mom too! I’ve been here din with a blogger friend. super saya no and feel mo talaga you’re in a castle. If only it’s near where I live, I’ll be suki π
My thoughts exactly. π Sana may ganito sa malapit sa amin (or sa MOA) hihi.
