Testimonials

As an actor, it’s important that I maintain my skin. I cannot thank Shirley enough for taking such good care of my skin. When I first met Shirley, she took the time to explain her process and made it abundantly clear that my time in her studio is MY time which means no distractions and she is focused on me. When you call to make an appointment, be prepared to leave a voicemail and she will get back to you. I truly appreciate her work ethic as it’s important that the clients’ needs are met to the fullest. Thank you, Shirley for all your help, knowledge, and making my skin camera ready! 

I have been coming to Stairway to Heaven Spa for nearly three years. Shirley is absolutely amazing, very attentive, kind, and conscious of your needs. She will address all your concerns and will provide a very relaxing experience. The breadth and depth of Shirley’s knowledge of skin care is immense. Her private studio is peaceful, luxurious, and very relaxing. I’m so thankful that I found Shirley! 

I’ve never had a facial before. My friend noticed that my skin needed some help. After an internet search and reading reviews Shirley seemed to have experience. So, I made an appointment. When I met Shirley, she took the time to get to know me and knew exactly what   my skin needed. After my treatment, I actually noticed a difference in my skin. When I saw my friend later that week, she noticed the difference and was very impressed. Thank you, Shirley for your help.

My brother recommended that I book an appointment with Shirley as I struggle with acne.  After a consultation with Shirley, we talked about my skincare needs, she gave me a facial that left my skin feeling great. As a man, I have no idea how to care for my skin. After my first facial, I could see a visible difference in my skin, which prompted me to book another appointment. Shirley also recommended that I get a peel to get deep down into my skin to improve my acne. After several peels, my skin never looked better. Thank you, Shirley, for your guidance and knowledge. 

The Los Angeles area is brimming with spas and facialists, but Stairway to Heaven Spa is a true hidden gem for any skin care concern. Shirley is an extremely talented aesthetician and skin care pro. She will address all your concerns and will provide a very relaxing experience. I would highly recommend trying a peel. She is extremely knowledgeable in peels and overall skin care regimens for your skin type. She will explain everything in detail and you will love the results. She will take care of your skin and walk you through the process. Her pampering session will leave your skin brighter and smoother than ever! Highly recommend!

I’ve been coming to Stairway to Heaven for seven years and Shirley is the best. She’s sweet, gentle, and thorough. More importantly, the breadth and depth of her knowledge of skincare is immense. Being an Asian male with “terrible” acne, she knows what treatment is right for my oily skin. After a series of peels, I have had fewer breakouts and black heads and my pores are less noticeable. So do yourself a favor: don’t be a cheapo. Do your skin a favor and go see Shirley. You won’t regret it. 

I found Stairway to Heaven Spa about  10 years ago and what a blessing it is to find wonderful Shirley. She is one of a kind and I can’t imagine finding anyone else like Shirley. She is a master at what she does and cares about her clients’ needs and areas of concern. Shirley is consistent with her services and does what she can to ensure that you are satisfied with your skincare experience. You won’t leave feeling unsatisfied. Shirley’s studio is beautifully decorated and relaxing and I recommend her services.  

As a trained aesthetician it has been difficult to find an aesthetician to meet my standards. Shirley is amazing!!!! She takes the time to get to know your skin & how it responds. Every facial builds upon the last, creating great results. I am so thankful I found Shirley – she’s knowledgeable, skilled, with an attention to detail that can’t be beat (and the sweetest!!!). 

Thank God I could FINALLY get an appointment for one of Shirley’s fabulous peels! My skin looks radiant & I feel beautiful thanks to her magic hands & wonderful products. I wanted you to know that this pandemic has made me realize how important it's to recognize the people in your life who make a difference like Shirley, and also taught me how critical the “gift of self-care is!”  As a teacher, I appreciate how thoroughly she researches everything & every Eminence product on her shelf is healthy & natural. I also appreciate the intimacy & the relaxing energy that radiates from her private studio. I know I'll be my best at my upcoming family reunion because of her. Thank you again and I’ll be in touch in a few weeks when I need more products!

Words cannot express how much I enjoyed my facial. Not only did my skin respond beautifully to the treatment, the products are all organic. The Eminence Line is absolutely fabulous and what I needed as I wanted to look my best as matron of honor at my sister’s wedding. The owner, Shirley, is a skin care genius and treats you like a long-lost friend. As a first-time client, Shirley took the time to get to know my specific needs. I’ve been experiencing a lot of acne lately and Shirley gave me a facial that left my skin so smooth and silky. We are now doing peels to clear up my acne.  I’m looking forward to my next treatment!
