Best of Big D -
Best Spa in Dallas - Editors' Choice
2011
"There are dozens of great salons in town, so it’s not
easy picking just one. But Spa Habitat gets our vote. The setting is serene.
(Organic tea? Yes, please.) The staff is professional. (No amateur Chatty Cathys.)
And the services are superb. The use of all-organic products ensures we’re
healing as much as relaxing. We just hate that we wind up addicted to another of
the boutique’s lotions and potions every time we go."

Best Green/Wellness Spa - Grand Winner - Central U.S.
2011
"SPA HABITAT

establishment that demonstrates an exceptional commitment to eco-awareness and
wellness through their innovative business practices and the standards they
uphold. Located in the heart of bustling uptown Dallas, the five-year old Spa
Habitat is known for its extensive apothecary of bath, body and skin care. The
spa ensures the purity of each product through their own thorough research, and
staff gladly provides a complete list of all ingredients in any product or
service by request." ... "The widespread recognition and acclaim Spa Habitat has
received from clientele and national press prove that purity and sustainability
can certainly coexist with outstanding quality."

Spa Habitat: Dallas' Organic Retreat
(read
article)
March-April 2012
"These days, there is an abundance of products touting the word “organic” but a quick review of the ingredients used in making them will convince you that “organic” is often a loosely used term. This is definitely not the case at
Spa Habitat...
When I looked up the word “habitat” for its official meaning, I found it is typically defined as “the place where a person or thing is most likely to be found.” If that’s the case, when it comes to luxurious and natural skincare -- you’ll find me at
Spa Habitat."

Top Spots for Getting Gorgeous
October 2010
"By taking a trip to
this organic oasis, wind energy is the primary power source,
and a tree is planted for every service performed. As if that
weren’t enough to make you feel good, aestheticians also pamper
skin by massaging the face and neck with a gentle alpha-hydroxy peel derived from bilberry, lemon, orange, and raw sugar extracts." |

Best Wax Salons in America - The Top Hair Removal
Places in the U.S.A.
October 2010
"In Dallas, visit Spa Habitat in Plano or Uptown. Both locations use organic, natural ingredients to get rid of any nagging hair. Spa Habitat uses the safest, most effective hair removal products – free from toxins, artificial colors, fragrances or chemicals. These products remove the hair, yes, but also leave your skin exfoliated, smooth and hydrated. Bonus: the spa offers two types of pure products – an organic sugar (yes, sugar to remove hair – usually for larger parts like legs or arms) or natural wax, which is better for smaller, more intricate areas, like your brows or lip. Wow, incredible." |

Dallas Observer
Best Massage in Dallas
December 2009
"From the reclaimed wood floors to the organic oils and
balms, a massage at Spa Habitat is a luxurious way to go green. The spa uses
recycled paper for paper products, organic cotton for linens, and Green Mountain
Energy's wind power to fuel the operation. So it's easy to offset your guilt
emissions at indulging in such a sybaritic pursuit—hey, by getting a massage
here, you're helping the environment. A dimmed reception area with cushy chairs
and curtains for privacy begins the relaxation. The warm aromas and even warmer
rice packs used in the Green Peace Massage (the spa's most popular massage) take
you all the way to limp-noodle state. As far as environmental action goes, this
beats a protest any day."
