GG's Spa and Salon — Local services in Monterey

This is the worst hair salon you could ever go to, my brothers hair look liked a disaster and paid for what he didn’t ask for. She did such a poor job, didn’t even line his hair up or do a proper fade.When I asked her if she could line his front hair, I had to tell her how because she didn’t know, and she only did one side... so I had to tell her to do the other side too. I asked her politely if she could clean the hair all over his neck and face, but she gave me a disgusting attitude gave me the supply she had to clean the hair and told me, “ here you do it”, and shoved the bottle in my hand. Not to mention that his haircut took about 45 min for a simple haircut and she kept leaving to talk to other people. I don’t even know why this store is still open because clearly that lady did not go to school to work at a hair salon, she does not know what she is doing and I paid $15 for nothing, because now we have to go somewhere to fix his hair. Please do not go to this salon they are very rude and they treated me like I was a...

It's Mothers day and I randomly wanted to get my nails done. On a Sunday evening after 4pm I knew it was going to be tough to find a place open. A little birdy told me about the place, so I called to be sure. I called and I had mentioned that I wanted my nails done. I was told multiple times that they are open. So I drive down there took about 15 mins. I had to park four blocks away, and I'm not that familiar with downtown Monterey. Once I actually found the place, I was told the owner GG was not there. I proceeded to tell the woman there that I called before hand to be sure that they would be open and what kind of service I wanted. And again I was told that because the owner was not there, no service could be provided. So I don't understand why this place was open at all? Why not just close up shop early and call it a day if no services can be provided if the owner is not around? I guess they make so much money, they...

Beware... Charging people (innocently?) in British pounds instead of dollars. It was quiet when we got there and we didn't see anybody. I looked over the counter and noticed every receipt was in GBP instead of dollars. (Uh... we are in America) I was going to point it out on my receipt before I signed it, but the machine makes you sign before you get the receipt. Sure enough, mine was in British pounds. This means they charge you in British pounds, pretending it's in dollars and take advantage of the exchange rate because people haven't noticed the distinction on the receipt. Not okay. Paid $215 after the money translation. Massage was good. Just don't enjoy being taken advantage of. Spoke to the owner on the phone. Allegedly they know nothing about the machine, suggesting every customer who had been in there...
