I would NOT recommend anyone go to this establishment…read more This was one of the most frustrating and disappointing experiences I have ever had as a paying customer. I booked a 60-minute massage and was required to pay 50% of the cost upfront to secure my appointment. My appointment was scheduled for 3:45 PM, and I arrived at 3:40 PM -- FIVE MINUTES EARLY. I have proof of my arrival time. Despite arriving early, I stood at an empty front desk for approximately 5 minutes before anyone even acknowledged me. When someone finally came out, I was actually asked if I had told them I was going to be late. I was there before my appointment time. My massage did not begin until approximately 4:10 PM, meaning the appointment started roughly 25 minutes late. The massage ended promptly at 4:45 PM, and I have proof of the time I left. Based on those times, I received only approximately 35 minutes of massage time for a service I booked and paid for as a full 60-minute massage. To be very clear: I was not late. I arrived early. I did not cause this delay. Yet I was the one who lost a significant portion of the service I paid for. And unfortunately, this wasn't even the first warning. One of my girlfriends had previously gone here and specifically told me to watch the clock because she booked a 90-minute massage and only received approximately 55 minutes. I now understand exactly what she was talking about. I booked this massage because I was already in pain, and after waiting for my appointment to begin, I received significantly less than the 60 minutes I paid for and walked out STILL HURTING. I find this completely unacceptable. If you're going to require customers to pay 50% upfront, then you should have enough respect for those customers to actually provide the service they paid for. Your scheduling issues should not become the customer's loss of time and money. And before anyone tries to dispute my timeline, I have documentation showing that I arrived at 3:40 PM and documentation showing that I left at 4:45 PM. I will be submitting that proof along with this review. I cannot prove the exact moment the massage began, but I can say that it did not begin until approximately 4:10 PM, and the massage ended promptly at 4:45 PM. This was not what I paid for. I left feeling ripped off, disregarded, and still in pain. Customers should not have to arrive early, wait for an establishment to get their appointment started, and then lose a substantial amount of the service they paid for. I would absolutely NOT recommend this establishment to anyone. If you decide to go anyway, watch the clock and document everything.

I was called by my massage therapist a bit later. I had a 60 minute massage and loved it. So relaxing and peaceful. The lights the smells the quietness of the space.

I truly recommend this place and hope to come back sooner than later. Thank you.

Avoid this place at all costs. If I could give 0 stars, I would…read more I came in for a massage expecting a relaxing experience, but it turned into the worst massage I've ever had. My massage therapist was Tori. During the session, I noticed she kept removing one hand and then immediately using it again. While I was lying face down, I couldn't see what she was doing. Once I turned over, I looked up and saw her repeatedly rubbing or wiping her nose with that same hand before continuing the massage without sanitizing it. I found this extremely unsanitary and unprofessional. It completely ruined what should have been a relaxing experience. I've had many massages over the years, but this was by far the worst experience I've ever had. It has honestly made me afraid to ever book another massage because I can't stop thinking about the lack of basic hygiene I witnessed. I would not recommend this place, and I would strongly advise others to avoid booking with Tori.

I did give the place a try after she left and was able to get a cut from the owner, who was a great person and had just wrapped up a really nice cut on the customer before me.

I really enjoyed the experience and like their new location off Main St, but I will probably try to find a new place that can accomodate me and my curls a bit better.

She took my seriously outdated hairstyle (if you could even call it that) and updated it with a fabulous new look.

She also told me how she was styling it so that I can recreate the look at home. For once, I feel like I have a cute hairstyle that I can maintain until my next appointment! The salon itself is beautiful. I was a little confused when I walked in and there was no receptionist. However, after watching people come in and out for a few minutes, I decided that the lack of a receptionist really worked well there. It felt more like clients were walking into someone's living room rather than a hair salon. The artwork was gorgeous, if you're into that sort of thing, and the location is perfect for anyone who lives or works in Columbia. Overall, a very pleasant experience.
