I am 22 and had my first ever massage with Dawn Hurley and it most certainly won't be my last! I…read morecame in with muscle tightness stemming from my hyper-mobility and bad posture and I left feeling like I had a new body. Dawn heard my concerns and addressed them by confirming where my muscle tightness was and focusing on those areas with a mix of heavy and light massage. There was one point where I had extreme tightness in my upper back and Dawn massaged some muscle up there and I felt it loosen the entire way down to my butt; I have never experienced a relief/release like that. I can honestly say that this massage experience changed my life as I will be seeking out that same relief from anything and everything. The atmosphere is also unmatched, cozy rooms with comfy sheets and blankets and fans to keep you at a comfortable temperature. Plus, it all ends with a heavenly head massage. 1000/10 experience, pleaseee go visit Dawn to start your day off with rejuvenated muscles!

Yes. That actually strengthens the review because it raises a fair question about why you were…read moreassigned to Shenekwa when the spa apparently identifies Kirstie with that specialty. I'd word it as a question rather than claiming anything about their staffing decisions: I booked a lymphatic drainage massage yesterday, and unfortunately, this was one of the worst day-spa experiences I've had. I've been to plenty of spas and have had lymphatic massage before, so I had a reasonable expectation of what this service should be. What makes this especially disappointing is that I explained to my therapist, Shenekwa, that my doctor specifically recommended lymphatic drainage massage to help my body decongest. I explained that this was an important massage for me and that I needed someone experienced and knowledgeable in lymphatic drainage. I specifically asked Shenekwa whether she had performed lymphatic drainage massages before and about her experience with them. She told me that she has several clients she performs them on. After experiencing the service and listening to her responses when I asked questions about lymphatic drainage, I personally find that very difficult to believe. She would give me answers, but they were vague and unhelpful and did not demonstrate the level of knowledge I would expect from someone regularly performing this specialized service. The massage itself was equally disappointing. She used a cheap-feeling aloe vera gel and didn't even have enough product to complete my massage. She actually ran out during the service and continued rubbing and massaging areas of my skin DRY. It was uncomfortable and completely unacceptable for a professional spa service. The lymphatic drainage technique and sequence also did not resemble what I have previously experienced with this type of massage. The entire service felt low-effort and as though very little care was being put into it. I actually felt worse when I left than I did when I arrived. What makes this even more frustrating is that, according to the spa's own website, Kirstie is listed as specializing in lymphatic massage. If the spa has a therapist who specifically specializes in the service I booked, why wasn't I scheduled with her? Especially when I made it clear that this massage was recommended by my doctor and that having someone experienced was important to me. Had I known there was a therapist there who specifically specialized in lymphatic massage, I absolutely would have requested her. There was also an issue before my appointment even started. About 30 minutes before my scheduled 4:00 p.m. appointment, Shenekwa spoke to my husband and told him that she was getting a tire changed and would be running late. I still arrived before my scheduled appointment because I'm always on time. When I arrived, she was already there and apparently able to start on time. I'm glad she made it on time, but since she had spoken to my husband to say she would be late, she could have contacted us again to let us know that she had actually made it back on time. It left me wondering what would have happened if I had relied on what she told my husband and arrived at the later time she indicated. Would I have then been considered late or charged for being late? Clients are expected to respect appointment times, and that consideration should go both ways. If you're going to charge premium day-spa prices for a specialized service like lymphatic drainage massage, you should make sure the therapist performing that service is properly trained, knowledgeable, and skilled in that specific technique. And if you already have someone on staff whom your own website identifies with lymphatic massage, I don't understand why clients booking that specialized service wouldn't be placed with that person. I still gave Shenekwa a $9 tip because I felt she at least tried, but the service failed miserably to meet my expectations. I left feeling worse than when I arrived, and I would absolutely never return. I've had many day-spa experiences, and I've never had one quite like this. For the amount of money being charged, customers deserve a much higher level of professionalism, knowledge, and care.

I went to this facility last year. Wanting to be daring and get a brazilian bikini wax. I was…read morevery hesistant about waxing after reading that it causes so much irritation and how it removes part of the skin b/c of they way its applied and removed. So after doing research discovered that sugaring is being used at some places instead of waxing. Found several places in Columbia that uses sugaring but couldn't get an appt so ended up going here. Place: located in the Vista. Easy to find, metered parking. The inside is very well laid out and decorated. A nails technician works there too. They perform other things besides sugaring. Mabel: she was the lady that gave me my sugaring. She made the experience easy enough while being in such a vulnerable and embarrassing position. She stated that she had almost 12 years at what she does. I was hesistant about her application but she reassured me and did not did twice into the sugar. If necessary she used a new glob. She was very professional. Experience: PAINFUL. This was my first experience in such a tender area. I have have my eyebrows threaded and waxed several times but this pain was different. She assured me that new waxers state it is painful the first few times but as you adjust you adapt. I guess this is true b/c i can get my eyebrows done without a muscle twitch. I would fore warn newbies to take 2 pain relievers at least before going like Tylenol or something. During she applied baby powder b/c i was sweating so much. The sugaring felt warm and applied easily. Afterwards i made sure to wash in the store any excess. When she was finished I love the results. It was smooth and soft. Some reddened areas but she applied a special lotion to prevent breaking out. She even went over how to care for the area. The room: was clean and new sheets applied after I was through. All her products looked well care for. The only thing I didn't like was the positioning of the doorway, once she had to answer a call and when she exited I was left exposed when she opened the door. Also, I wish it had thicker walls b/c I could here her and the client before me clearly while I was in the waiting area. At home: the hair didn't return for almost 4 weeks and my skin wasn't irritated at all. I would definitely do it again, with her or a different facility I'm not sure yet. Price: I pay $55 for student discount but the services are pretty pricey.

I went upon the recommendation of a friend. Trinite was the service provider. She was absolutely…read moreworth every penny. The environment was calming and relaxing. It was private and Trinite made you feel like you were her only client. I would definitely go again.

I went in for a waxing service and was greeted nicely upon entering. Not soon after I sat down, I…read morewas called back at my appointed time. There was no wait wondering when I would be called back. Kudos to Ashley that performed my service. She started promptly and worked very efficiently, explaining the process as she proceeded. Being my first time getting a wax, I was truly concerned with the horror stories of excruciating pain, however, Ashley made the whole process quite pleasant. Her personality is truly engaging which put me at ease and she provided excellent aftercare and interim maintenance guidance. I'm a customer for our stay here in Columbia. Her work exceeded my expectation. If you are looking for a qualified and experienced esthetician, request Ashley. Great salon, great staff.
