The Good Stuff
Detailed manicures
A long-term customer specifically praised careful cuticle work and precise polish application during monthly nail visits.
Keratin results
A keratin customer left with soft, shiny hair and described the treatment products as high quality.
Relaxing massages
Balinese and foot massages are praised for leaving customers relaxed and easing stiffness or body discomfort.
Clean booking
One review mentions a very clean salon with email confirmations and appointment reminders, useful for planned visits.
Quiet blow-dry
A customer appreciated a calm deep-conditioning and blow-dry visit, including a head massage that helped them fall asleep.
Lash quality
A long-term lash customer says the extensions feel soft and remain attractive for a long time.
Tips for a Better Visit
Book ahead. Reserve early and reconfirm your technician: one regular said preferred technicians were unavailable even after booking three to four days ahead.
Confirm promos. If you are using a promotion, confirm holiday restrictions and whether it will be honoured when rescheduling before paying in advance.
Choose carefully. For nails, ask for an experienced technician and clarify the finish beforehand; one customer needed a senior technician to correct a basic service.
Allow time. Leave extra time for appointments rather than planning a tight schedule, as one visitor waited 45 minutes and received no service.
Check pricing. Confirm the current price before treatment: an older review says an advertised manicure-and-pedicure price was not honoured.

Common Concerns
Waxing injury
One customer said waxing peeled skin from the treatment area, required a doctor visit and medication, and was followed by a rude complaint response.
Rough nail work
A Gelish manicure review describes harsh over-filing that caused bleeding, followed by uneven, messy nails that started peeling.
Long waiting
A recent visitor waited nearly 30 minutes just to hear the nail price and left after 45 minutes without receiving a service.
Weak home service
A home-service manicure reportedly chipped within a day, while the suggested glue left a visible lump on the nail.
Rough hair wash
One customer reported forceful brushing and scratching during a hair wash, leaving their wife with a headache and prompting a staff change.

The Bottom Line
Mind & Sense Spa is a DIFC beauty salon where you can book keratin treatment, Gelish or classic manicures, lash extensions and massages. The strongest pattern in the reviews is loyalty to particular technicians: customers describe careful cuticle work, nails that last for weeks, soft-looking lashes and Balinese massages that ease stiffness. Hair reviews also include a successful keratin treatment and a haircut with well-executed front layers.
The setting is described as clean, calm and comfortable, with email confirmations and reminders mentioned by one customer. A head massage during a deep-conditioning and blow-dry visit was relaxing enough to put the reviewer to sleep. Promotions and packages have appeared, and older reviews describe prices as reasonable, but another customer said a website price was outdated and a haircut cost 250 AED.
The main caution is inconsistency. Recent complaints include a 45-minute wait with no service, a home-service manicure that chipped within a day, painful over-filing during Gelish, rough hair washing and waxing that allegedly peeled skin and required medical care. Book ahead, reconfirm the technician and treatment price, and speak up immediately if the technique feels too harsh.
