BLESSING BARBER SHOP Y NAILS SPA — Local services in Cartagena

I visited Blessing Salon twice during my trip, and I’m so glad I did! The first time, I popped in to get some advice about my frizzy hair. The heat and humidity were making it unmanageable, and they suggested an amino acid treatment. I decided to go for it, and I couldn’t be happier with the results. My hair looks so much healthier, feels smoother, and the frizz is under control. It’s been such a lifesaver for keeping my vacation low-maintenance.

On my second visit, I got eyelash extensions, and they’ve been perfect. Even with all my beach trips, they’ve lasted so well and made getting ready each day so easy. Between my hair and lashes, I’ve felt effortlessly put together the whole time.

The studio was spotless, and the staff who worked on me were incredibly kind and skilled. The owner also checked in with me a few times during both visits to make sure I was comfortable and didn’t need anything, which I really appreciated. They even managed to fit me in quickly both times!

If I hadn’t run out of time, I would’ve definitely gone back for more services. I highly recommend Blessing Salon—great team, great service, and...

What a gem of a place. We were in Cartagena for a week will with our kids (10 &13), and they wanted to get their hair braided. We are so fortunate to have found this place. The people who work there are wonderful and provide you with such great service. Juan and Amber were so welcoming and kind. They treated our children so well. Lorena braided my daughter's hair and Gladys did my son's cornrows. They offer great pricing and can do anything you want. My husband also got his beard trimmed and a pedicure. If you're in Cartagena and need any hair or nail service, GO HERE. You will be so happy you did. They're located within a small shopping center, but there are people outside with shirts that say"Blessing", so you can't miss them. They have 2 walls full of notes from clients from all over the world. It's really something special.

We will definitely visit them again when we return...

I strongly advise against getting a manicure and pedicure at this establishment. The place is incredibly dirty and unhygienic. I was shocked to see that they do not use any standard cleaning equipment or practices. The tools appeared unclean, and there was no visible sanitation process between customers. The overall environment was filthy and neglected, which made me extremely uncomfortable throughout the entire experience.

Additionally, the staff did not seem concerned about maintaining cleanliness or adhering to proper hygiene protocols. Given the lack of sanitation, I'm now worried about the possibility of developing an infection on my toes. This was an utterly disappointing and concerning experience. Save yourself the trouble and avoid this place at all costs. Your health and safety are worth more than risking...
