    I've been coming to metamorphosis for about 5 years now, and while i visit other spots here and there, I always come back to metspa. I have done everything from facials to massages to brazilian waxes here and have never been disappointed. Kira is amazing at facials and brazilian waxes, quick, efficient, and as painless as it can possibly be. Love this place!

    We had such a lovely experience during our Couples Massage. They were very professional, great at the level of pressure they apply, and super friendly. The massages are in a combined room and totally did the trick. I reccomend this to any couple...friend or romantic!

    Metamorphasis Day Spa is a great spa to visit. I love their massages. The massage therapists are very well trained and ease tensions in tight muscles effortlessly. The staff are vey poite and the decor and aromas are soothing. I return any time that I can. A must visit on anyone's list!

    I just got back from this spa. I took my parents with me - my dad had a hot stone massage and my mom had the Clean as a Whistle facial, just like I did. We all loved the services we received. The staff is very professional and accommodating. What I loved most is that Kira was very thorough when performing the extractions during my facial - and at the same time didn't leave me looking like someone had beat me up! There was some redness here and there, but it wasn't bad. I've been to places where I didn't want to leave after a facial because I've been left very red and swollen! Kira was great though. Another thing I liked is that she wasn't constantly recommending products - she recommended two services at the beginning of my facial, and after I politely declined she proceeded to do a wonderful job and knew exactly when to ask me how I was doing. She also informed me of each step throughout the facial. My mom loved her esthetician as well, her name is Anita. I'm sure everyone the... Read more

    Small but very cozy. Staff is just phenomenal. I had a body wrap there and that was fantastic. It left my body feeling slim, skin very soft, and still glowing!. The facials are the best. Great exfoliation, mask, extracts if needed which I defiantly needed. High frequency is great especially for troubled skin. My skin honestly after two months once a month never looked this good. It stays for an entire month. Skin is so soft and my friends noticed right away. I never had very bad troubled skin but just a few spots and they were gone and rest of skin was soo soft just like a baby, beautiful work. Prices for nyc and the service are great!! seriously less than other high end spas. Do come and you will not regret it.

    Loved my massage - i had elizabeth and she was great. She explained what she was doing (but not to the point where she was annoying) and i left feeling amazing. I'm going back tonight!

    Staff is always professional; sessions start in time; full array of services; some rooms allow you to shower in private after a scrub and then return to the same room to complete your other services - no walking through the hallways!

    The astheticains at this spa are always efficient and clean. I have been coming for many years for hair removal, and would not go anywhere else. They are willing to accomodate you at anytime, and try to make the experience to be as comfortable as possible. I have referred this spa to many friends and continue to give giftcertificates as presents.

    I mainly visit Metamorphosis spa for my monthly Brazilian. The spa is incredibly clean. I had tried a few estheticians till I found Kira. Now I specifically ask for her. Metamorphosis gets major points for being open late and on weekdays, so it always fits my hectic schedule. They are also really down to earth. Anyway, I am addicted to waxing and I try to get everyone addicted, too. Kira rocks. She is insanely quick, very good, and it is as pain free as this awkward experience can be. She is the most thorough bikini waxer I have ever had.

    I've been everywhere........either the service is good, but the atmosphere is terrible or the massages are great but the facials break me out. I've been from the Upper West Side to downtown, but no more!!! Metamorphosis has it all......great atmosphere, great personal service, highly skilled professionals, a nice products and no heavy sales pitches. This is why I'll keep returning to this place.

    I am an African-American female and I have found a new place for a Brazilian wax. Val did a great job! She took her time and it was mostly painless...I couldn't believe it. My husband it still thanking her for doing such a wonderful job. I was so grateful for the warm and friendly environment. After leaving my old spa I've truly found somewhere a lot better at a reasonable price. See you guys soon!

    I have been coming to Metspa for the last year for massages to treat a shoulder injury. Elizabeth is a fantastic masseuse and her deep tissue massage is really the only treatment which seems to help my shoulder. I would recommend MetSpa and Elizabeth to anyone in need of a massage and especially a therapeutic massage for injury.

    I got a gift card for Christmas to come to this spa, and everything was great but the pedicure was beyond great. The longest, most enjoyable ever... And the polish lasted for more than 6 weeks though usualy it starts getting off in about 3 weeks in my case... Highly recommended!!!

    I am always nervous about getting waxes done, but before I knew it the wax was over! No pain, I couldn't believe it! If you are planning to get a wax done, I highly recommend Kira. She makes you feel very comfortable and at home, and also uses some nice blue wax, which is unlike any other wax I've tried in that it leaves the skin smooth with no sticky feeling, and it is pain-free. The staff is incredibly friendly and you truly feel pampered!

    I went to metamorphosis spa for the first time last week because I really needed a deep tissue massage. I have some really bad knots in my back and I can never seem to find a masseuse who will really work my knots. When I got Liz as my massage therapist, I knew right away I was in good hands (hehe). She was uh-mazing. I told her exactly where it hurt and she made sure to do something about it. She even used hot stones to relieve my back even though my massage technically did not include that technique. All in all I would say that my experience was great although I owe most of it to Liz.

    Everyone there is very nice! And especially good about scheduling. I canceled one week and the second time I think I must have re-scheduled three times and was late getting there but still smiles when I came in! My only other facial experience was B*** and the difference is night and day. Even though this place was small it is spacious (I know it doesn't make sense!) and feels very relaxing. I saw one client when I was coming in and another leaving as I was leaving as well so you really feel like this spa is about you. I had the European facial. My facialist's name was Elena. I thought she was very thorough and gentle. (But take note that even with the most gentlest of hands, extractions hurt like hell!) Elena asked me what I wanted her to focus on and asked me about my routine and offered suggestions on what to do. She didn't try to sell me any package or product or even tried to reschedule me! but she did recommended some skin care products but i guess it's their job. Facial came ... Read more

    I went there for the first time a few weeks ago and found all staff to be very friendly. I was an entire hour late to my appointment but they were still able to fit me in right away with no negative comments. Great atmosphere.

    The facials live up to it's name, I have acne prone skin, and their products they use during the facial are amazing. The extractions were not as painful as I thought they would be. The massages can be tailored to fit your needs. I prefer a softer kneading technique, and the massuese was more than willing to make sure i was comfortable

    I found Metamorphosis day spa on citysearch This small nice clean spa was so quite and relaxing. The friendly staff gave us plenty of privacy and I never felt rushed. I'm a convert! Never again will I go to a huge corporate spa to feel rushed around and share the amenities with complete strangers. Metamorphosis is the place for couples looking for great relaxing, professional and warm welcoming staff!

    I am not a girl who gets a lot of facials. The time, the money, the pain... If you've had a facial, you understand how torturous it can be sometimes. Not at Metamorphosis. Elena is AMAZING. She took the time to address my specific skin needs, and when I left my skin was as soft and as smooth as a baby's bottom. Like all facials, I did have some red spots after my numerous extractions (not a regular facial-receiver here, remember?) Another thing that I appreciated about Metamorphosis is that they don't push their Emerge Labs products on you. I can't say enough wonderful things about this spa... but I can tell you - I will be back!

    After having been a customer for so many years I cannot believe that this is the level of service I get. I was ripped off today and walked out with a big hole in my pocket. I have been going to Kira for years now for the signature facial and its excellent, the ONLY reason I even go there. This is the only good thing about this spa; now for the bad. Bad experience # 1: appointment mix-up where front desk scheduled me with someone else for some other facial instead of the one I requested. Bad experience # 2: My appointment started 25-30 minutes late. When I complained to the front desk, the person said "you were scheduled for 15 mins after the time you say you were scheduled for". Me "okay but its now 30 mins". The front desk could not care less. Bad experience # 3: My 90 minutes facial was done in 75 mins. I asked the front desk why. Her answer "90 mins includes 15 minutes for changing into the robe". Me "why do you mislead the customer by saying 90 mins facial when its really 75 mins?"... Read more
