Since most people do not read long winded reviews, I'll keep it short and sweet. Everyone and everything at this place is awesome. Go, you will not be disappointed.

Yesterday I redeemed my "Keep It Simple" package because my better half (jokingly) said he wouldn't get me a new Mother's Day gift until the one from last Mother's Day way used 🤣🤣 & he forced me out of the house to the sweetest people & relaxing & welcoming place! Best massage I ever had; she (Jill?) really wanted to make things right in my bones & muscles! So amazing. The "dirty rat" move is a new fave! The mani & pedi were also probably the best I've had, Danielle was so sweet, great conversation (not used to that!) & very thorough but gentle. I'm a huge fan & I will definitely be back. Hopefully in the next month or so! 😜 Read Less

This place was GREAT!!! I was from out of town and nervous to go to a massage place that I wasn't familiar with. I don't like spending money on a massage that is awful! Who does?? But I'm so happy I found this place! I had Hannah and she was great! Listened to my needs and used the perfect amount of pressure that I needed/asked for. I felt great afterwards!!! It was a 90 minute massage and worth every penny! When I went it was my bday so they even gave me a little gift which was so nice and very unexpected! Anyways I highly recommend this place! I had a great experience and will be back next time I'm in town! Read Less

I had a surgery done and my doctor recommended Robin Berning at Simple Bliss for post surgical massages, I was having quite a lot of scarring so I decided to check it out. I never received massages or went to a spa before I came here and I went for the first time and fell in love. Not only did most of my scarring go away after the first appointment, I was also very relaxed and stress free. The relaxation room is excellent and even if you don't partake in energy healing or any of that, you will be 100% stress free by the time you're done with your appointment at simple bliss. I recommend this place to any one, hands down. 🙂 Read Less

First and foremost I want to say that the part that I enjoyed the most was the friendly staff.  Scheduling a group that started out as 4 and ended up being 3  with various treatments was a breeze.  This was super considering I had experienced trouble and blatant rudeness from other larger spas in the Raleigh area.  Every time we called for last minute details we were met with excellent and accommodating demeanors.I had booked this trip as part of my girls wknd out before Im a mommy trip lol.I myself received a prenatal massage, facial, pedi and mani.My friends received hot stone massage facials, pedi/manis, Brazilian waxPros: Easy to find, reasonably priced, GREAT STAFF they laughed and indulged us with their own personal tidbits while we gossiped about everything from celebrities to joking on one another, it felt like they were part of the group lol ,Personal attention, even though we came as a group, our individual needs were addressed.They have own parking in the back of house.  Robyn bought some delicious cookies muffins and teas!

She definitely took her time and was gentle and I do believe she will greatly improve with some more time.  However  I am used to very thorough ( callus removal, buffing and shining nails, etc)  mani and pedis and was looking forward to that and was in DESPERATE NEED! ( I automatically thought that getting these services at a spa as opposed to a nail salon, that it would be something serious lol) So the pedicure was very basic but then again I am a pedi snob.

They always make sure you have everything you need in order to have a great experience. The shop is very peaceful and relaxing as well. Kara does my hair and she always does an excellent job. She is super sweet and always a pleasure to be around. I got my nails done by Robin and she gave me the best French gel manicure I've ever had.

Took my mom here for a bday massage and got one for myself as well. It was almost impossible to land a same-day "couples" massage appointment, but Jennifer squeezed us in and was so helpful and hospitable. Robin, my massage therapist, was great. After our consult, she worked on my lower back, hamstrings, and hips to help alleviate some of the pain I've had in those areas. I feel great. I think my mom had Mark- he was great also.The facilities were clean and cozy. The massage room had great low lighting and soothing music. We were offered a beverage before and after the massage. This is a small local business and I recommend supporting them versus visiting a chain. The service was thoughtful and personal. They carry essential oils, cosmetics, and other merchandise, including "Headbands for Hope", a locally started brand of headwear whose proceeds go to cancer research. Support this small business and others in the area! Lovely people, lovely experience. Read Less

I am committed to supporting female and locally owned businesses in Raleigh and was delighted to discover Simple Bliss. Spa. Easy parking options, quick appointment time and friendly staff gave a great first impression.  The attractive, relaxing space is immaculate and Kara is a talented stylist who really listens to her clients. Appointments run on time and you can take full advantage of multiple services making the experience efficient, very reasonably priced and super pleasant. I referred a friend and the owner called to thank me. Simple Bliss really provides old-fashioned customer service and has earned my loyalty.My cut and color were perfect the first time and Kara is a pro. She has a devoted new client in me. Enjoy the Simple Bliss Spa experience yourself and you won't be disappointed.Esther H. Read Less

I saw Simple Bliss Spa relatively close to my workplace which is how I had stumbled upon it. It just kept reaching out to me it seemed, but normally I wouldn't step foot in a place that had the word Spa in front of it. I had always assumed those were places that were more catered towards women. I was dead wrong. I actually learned that a spa can be for both men and women. My hair had been getting a bit too long to manage and I wanted to try some place new that was also convenient for me. I called up and was greeted by a very pleasant young lady named Joy who easily scheduled a hair appointment for me with Abigail. The whole experience was very enjoyable. I especially liked getting my hair shampooed. The hair cut looked great and the price was just right. I definitely will be returning for my next haircut. I might even check out some of the other options they have available for men. Read Less

Simple Bliss is a great spa and salon. They have a very wide variety of available services, a great atmosphere, and a friendly staff. I went in today and got a manicure from Abigail - I'm in love with it! She helped me pick the color and did a wonderful job; I can't stop staring at my nails. Abigail has also done my hair before and she gave me the exact cut and style that I asked for. She's very perceptive about what you want and has great advice for hair, skin, and nail care if you ask her. I will most definitely be back to Simple Bliss. The prices are also very reasonable. I had a great experience and will be recommending this place to all my friends in the Raleigh area. Read Less

If you have not been to Simple Bliss, run there.  And after you run there you will immediately feel the since of calm.  From the very friendly receptionist to the relaxing waiting area, everything about this oasis says "omm....".  I went to see Robin, the amazing owner, for a massage and I came out a different person.  She took her time during our initial consultation and really focused on my needs.  Once in the room she showed me the table, which has body memory pillows!  I had never used those during a massage....so simple, yet genius.  It actually allows your body to stretch you lower back and keep you pelvis inline while laying face down.  Already just laying there my body was thanking me.  Next the massage...Robin should be called the knot whisperer...she instinctively knew where to target my tension and just how deep to apply the pressure with slow, rhythmic timing.  Hands down one of the best massages I have ever had.  After my massage she took the time with me to give me specific aftercare instructions and while I can't believe I remember them because I was so massage-drunk, after following them I feel like I have a neck again and I am 2 inches taller.  I will absolutely make this a regular part of my regimen...take care of your body and your body will take care of you.

I bought two spa packages from Simple Bliss for a Christmas present for my roommate and myself. We got manicures, pedicures, and massages. Everything was wonderful from the spa services to the customer service from the lovely ladies that work there.   It was relaxing and pampering without being too stuffy or formal and my friend and I were able to enjoy some time together while treating ourselves to something special.  I have great respect for Robin and her business and admire her passion for the work that she does.  Her love and commitment to making others feel good is very apparent and I'm more than glad to support Simple Bliss!

I had a nice experience here with Christine (?) who cut my hair. She was doing a special, or a fundraiser, or somesuch thing where it was only $10. They let you wait in  plush chairs and smell slightly overly fragrant perfumes, and the whole house seems ready for you to relax in it. Cookies on the front counter when I left.

I love Simple Bliss. The front desk girls are always so delightful and give Simple Bliss a great atmosphere as soon as you walk in. They always make sure you have everything you need in order to have a great experience. The shop is very peaceful and relaxing as well. Kara does my hair and she always does an excellent job. She is super sweet and always a pleasure to be around. I got my nails done by Robin and she gave me the best French gel manicure I've ever had. I also got my eyebrows waxed by Nadia and they have never looked better! She was very thorough and kind and made it a pleasant, relaxing experience. I love Simple Bliss and I will continue to go back there for all my spa/beauty needs! Read Less

Took my mom here for a bday massage and got one for myself as well. It was almost impossible to land a same-day "couples" massage appointment, but Jennifer squeezed us in and was so helpful and hospitable. Robin, my massage therapist, was great. After our consult, she worked on my lower back, hamstrings, and hips to help alleviate some of the pain I've had in those areas. I feel great. I think my mom had Mark- he was great also.The facilities were clean and cozy. The massage room had great low lighting and soothing music. We were offered a beverage before and after the massage. This is a small local business and I recommend supporting them versus visiting a chain. The service was thoughtful and personal. They carry essential oils, cosmetics, and other merchandise, including "Headbands for Hope", a locally started brand of headwear whose proceeds go to cancer research. Support this small business and others in the area! Lovely people, lovely experience. Read Less

Easy parking options, quick appointment time and friendly staff gave a great first impression.  The attractive, relaxing space is immaculate and Kara is a talented stylist who really listens to her clients.

I saw Simple Bliss Spa relatively close to my workplace which is how I had stumbled upon it. It just kept reaching out to me it seemed, but normally I wouldn't step foot in a place that had the word Spa in front of it. I had always assumed those were places that were more catered towards women. I was dead wrong. I actually learned that a spa can be for both men and women. My hair had been getting a bit too long to manage and I wanted to try some place new that was also convenient for me. I called up and was greeted by a very pleasant young lady named Joy who easily scheduled a hair appointment for me with Abigail. The whole experience was very enjoyable. I especially liked getting my hair shampooed. The hair cut looked great and the price was just right. I definitely will be returning for my next haircut. I might even check out some of the other options they have available for men. Read Less

Simple Bliss is a great spa and salon. They have a very wide variety of available services, a great atmosphere, and a friendly staff. I went in today and got a manicure from Abigail - I'm in love with it! She helped me pick the color and did a wonderful job; I can't stop staring at my nails. Abigail has also done my hair before and she gave me the exact cut and style that I asked for. She's very perceptive about what you want and has great advice for hair, skin, and nail care if you ask her. I will most definitely be back to Simple Bliss. The prices are also very reasonable. I had a great experience and will be recommending this place to all my friends in the Raleigh area. Read Less

If you have not been to Simple Bliss, run there.  And after you run there you will immediately feel the since of calm.  From the very friendly receptionist to the relaxing waiting area, everything about this oasis says "omm....".  I went to see Robin, the amazing owner, for a massage and I came out a different person.  She took her time during our initial consultation and really focused on my needs.  Once in the room she showed me the table, which has body memory pillows!  I had never used those during a massage....so simple, yet genius.  It actually allows your body to stretch you lower back and keep you pelvis inline while laying face down.  Already just laying there my body was thanking me.  Next the massage...Robin should be called the knot whisperer...she instinctively knew where to target my tension and just how deep to apply the pressure with slow, rhythmic timing.  Hands down one of the best massages I have ever had.  After my massage she took the time with me to give me specific aftercare instructions and while I can't believe I remember them because I was so massage-drunk, after following them I feel like I have a neck again and I am 2 inches taller.  I will absolutely make this a regular part of my regimen...take care of your body and your body will take care of you.

I bought two spa packages from Simple Bliss for a Christmas present for my roommate and myself. We got manicures, pedicures, and massages. Everything was wonderful from the spa services to the customer service from the lovely ladies that work there.   It was relaxing and pampering without being too stuffy or formal and my friend and I were able to enjoy some time together while treating ourselves to something special.  I have great respect for Robin and her business and admire her passion for the work that she does.  Her love and commitment to making others feel good is very apparent and I'm more than glad to support Simple Bliss!

I had a nice experience here with Christine (?) who cut my hair. She was doing a special, or a fundraiser, or somesuch thing where it was only $10. They let you wait in  plush chairs and smell slightly overly fragrant perfumes, and the whole house seems ready for you to relax in it. Cookies on the front counter when I left. Will probably come back for a massage if I ever have a job again. (c'mon, recession. knock it off.) Read Less
