A friend at work recommended me to Deanna and Awakenings. One visit and I was convinced this was the place to have all of my aesthetic needs and wants met.

Deanna is meticulous. Her careful attention to detail is evident in all of the services she provides. I have been the recipient of her excellent shellac manicures. She makes my nails look professional and polished. It’s never too much work to make it look outstanding. Her meticulous work extends the life of the manicure. All of her attention to detail is done with an enthusiastic attitude and in a timely manner.

Deanna is a professional. Whenever I arrive at my appointed time, I am greeted with warmth and friendliness. There have been occasions when I have mixed up an appointment time. Deanna is most accommodating - without making her clients feel like they have inconvenienced her. Her newly renovated studio is warm, exceptionally clean and marked by professionalism. She is knowledgeable about the product lines she carries and remembers my preferences. Deanna is regularly upgrading her knowledge and skills to provide the best possible services to her clients.

There are times when I am glad to leave my work at the office. Deanna’s work is not always hidden away at the office. In fact, it’s on display for many to see. Recently, a friend saw my manicure from across the room and asked where she could obtain an equally spectacular manicure. .

It was a pleasure to recommend Deanna and Awakenings.

For approximately 10 years I have been a client of Deanna's and have had the pleasure of experiencing a number of treatments from her extensive menu. I have tried other spas on occasion and have never received the same level of personal care and professionalism that I have come to appreciate from Deanna. Her quaint studio is like my private oasis where I feel so comfortable and at ease that it's not uncommon to drift off to another place.

The Clayton Shagal product line....the best I've ever used. People constantly tell me I look at least 10 years younger than I am...what woman doesn't enjoy that type of compliment.

"I had the pleasure of visiting Deanna at Awakenings Studio last Friday for a new service she is offering - a Hot Stone Soothing Facial. All I can say is, it was AWESOME. I have never felt so relaxed and I truly got to 'escape my world' for a little while! It was such a nice treat during a busy holiday season..and I even found out 'the story behind the hot stones'. Wow. Thanks so much Deanna, you are an angel."
