Had an amazing first experience at Face Foundrié on Grand Avenue in Saint Paul. I love the whole…read moreconcept of the business making facials more accessible to the general population without costing a fortune! I've always wanted to get a facial but was always deterred by the cost, the Sculpt facial plus the lip treatment I did was a whopping $79, paired with the quality of the experience, highly recommend! My esthetician Hannah O was super sweet and did a great job with the consultation and was just really friendly overall. After the consultation we didn't speak much which allowed me to take a little cat nap during my facial :)! Sculpt is described using Hungarian massage and facial cupping to lift, tighten, and tone the face. After it was over I left feeling refreshed and extremely relaxed. They have an option to do a $79 monthly membership for facials, which seems like a good investment as they have a handful of facial options doing different things. Only complaint: They did not have men's sized spa headbands so the products were getting in my hair and behind my ears, which was slightly off putting, so I'm hoping Face Foundrié will get ones that fit multiple head sizes. All in all a great experience and would come back!

I found the salon on Yelp and drove over an hour just to have my hair done, and it was absolutely worth the drive.

However, I absolutely love my hair now, and it has boosted my confidence significantly. I am so grateful to have found your salon and you as my stylist!

I did see this on the agreement when booking, but the fact that I had to go to work unexpectedly and they "already waived the fee" for me two years ago made this entire situation infuriating. EDIT: The response to this review only supports my original conclusion toward this company with phrases like "you threatened to leave a bad review" and "if you didn't get your way" which is exactly why I attached screenshots. I will gladly let them keep my $85 if it encourages potential clients to take their business elsewhere. It is also inaccurate that their policy is industry standard, as I've worked at a salon and am currently a happy patron at several others.

I'm not sure why this location asked, because they didn't seem to follow anything I wrote. This was for my boyfriend's birthday and his name was not on the sign when we walked in, despite me listing that in the paperwork. In the past for my birthday, I have also gotten a card. But nothing here. My boyfriend also didn't want his feet touched and that was also listed in the paperwork. Unfortunately that was not followed. We were brought to our locker rooms and they were clean, had our names and chocolates in the lockers. Very nice touch! Our robe sizes and slides were also in our lockers. There is a large shower, 2 bathroom stalls and vanity with make up lighting. We then walked to the lobby area. This was where we started to have thoughts. Employees were talking in full volume. Not very relaxing. They also kept coming in and out of the room, talking, stocking snacks constantly! Again not very relaxing. The water was nice with a lemon. My boyfriend went to get water for hot tea but the water was room temp. Not very comforting. The massages were nice. I had Ingrid and she was lovely! She did a great job and was soft in speaking during the massage. My boyfriend said his massage therapist was talking at normal volume and didn't find it as relaxing. Afterwards we said in the lobby area again. In my opinion, the fireplace at maple grove is more welcoming and comforting. This place had what looked like a diffuser and eventually it turned off and started beeping. Again not relaxing. The lobby area is also larger at the maple grove location. This location left me a bit perplexed as to why the reviews are better here than at the maple grove location....

We also got a warm neck wrap. Our pedicures took place in the nail room. Only two chairs, so very private. The treatments we had were great and very relaxing! I had Kassidy and she was wonderful.

I highly recommend Savannah. The negatives: Loud very loud "spa" music blasting throughout the place. There are signs that read "use spa voices" - meaning quiet tone. The staff speak quiety and ask others to use a quiet voice. This is very courteous. However, the blasting music makes it impossible to hear what they are saying. Or to relax. The individual treatment rooms have walls but no ceiling. The overpowering music is meant to muffle the sound of voices and activities on the other side of the partitions. However, I found it impossible to block the loud music from my mind and challenging to relax because of it. This was the major downside to this place. I was kept waiting 30 mins past my appointment time. This meant that the second service (facial) started and ended 30-40 mins later than planned. The facial was average. The aesthetician was very personable. Overall, the environment and services were average but were priced for an outstanding experience.

It's a beautiful space, they throw fun events, and it has a designated parking lot (score!!). Their online scheduling tool is really easy to use, and they carry great product lines (but aren't pushy about them). Honestly, one of the best things about Gem is that Revival is across the street!

I have been a repeat customer, but be warned if you are a busy bee Because I have experienced…read moreskilled service for my hair and have felt more comfortable here with my hair as a Latina than in other locations. *BUT PROCEED WITH CAUTION!! Unfortunately my concern is regarding their communication and strict policy. They would rather loose me as a future customer than help find a middle ground of a missed appointment that I tried to call the office for. Their booking service had an outdated number associated to it, so I didn't receive any communications with them. I hate to have to do this but if this is how a repeat customer is ignored and treated then it's just actually unfortunate. They took my money, which is expensive. I cannot and I don't any one really can afford an expensive hair appointment and receive no service. People budget for these things because yes they have people with skills and it's expensive! I am stuck in need of hair service. Without any regard. Just a rigid cold - rely on policy vibe, as in they disassociate with what they are saying because it's not right. And act with toxic positivity. Policy is NOT law binding. I will be disputing with my bank and considering further actions. As they even have a voicemail from me they never returned. I called them 4 times. And spoke to someone 1 time who couldn't assist me in any way as she was the register/ host and no one was available to be actual help. I didn't miss my appointment they ignored me. So yeah. Sorry but just a heads up out there- if you have kids or a family situation or work that might change your schedule unexpectedly due to, for me, a court date was set. Don't book as schedule may change and they will not care about taking 100 percent of price for nothing all because life is life and policy is just a pretend word to act like and/or hide behind.
