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.

The decor, the pre-appt instructions on how to get there, the consultation before starting, it was all so thoughtful. Then I got to know my therapist a bit and Tasha is so amazingly good at this work, I can't say enough to explain how cared for I felt. Many people massage with their hands but rare few massage with such kind attention and total focus on your comfort with every palpable stroke. I was told to speak up at any time to ask for more or less. This was a same day, online booking because I'm impulsive like that and it was the most pleasant surprise to have one of the best massages of my life. Thank you Tasha!!!!!!!!!

Parking - mainly metered spots. However, my confirmation email stated that after 5pm, you can park…read morein the small attached lot. Entrance - they're located on the second level. I didn't notice an elevator, but perhaps I just missed it. Once on that level they have several doors, but you enter the one with the opened door and the little sign out front. Arrival - I arrived early, just in case there were intake forms or I needed to change beforehand. However, they don't have a changing room or lockers. Instead, you change in your service room, with your items remaining there. Service - I booked a 1hr Deep Tissue Massage with Elsa, which was GREAT! The service started with burning something that smelled like Paolo Santo. The areas of pain welcomed the deep pressure, for other areas of my body it was too much. So I told her and she adjusted accordingly. There was music playing, which was a bit loud. However, it was soothing, with no odd pitches or tones so I didn't mind. What I did mind was the distractions from outside the room. Sadly, it was right by the entrance door (for that space) and the walls in the room don't go all the way up. Therefore, sounds of the heavy door opening and closing, people talking, squeaky floors as they walked by filled the air as I tried to immerse into the experience. During the service she did use some warm towels on me, and ended with the paolo santo (or perhaps it was sage) again. Departing- My massage therapist told me to meet her outside after I changed. I thought she meant outside of the service room so hung out in that lounge for a while, before deciding to go look for her, in the main lobby area. That's where I found and she checked me out. This made me wonder if there's a designated front desk/ guest service staff member. Anyway, while checking me out she also gave me a cup of water, her card, a promo card, Biscoff cookies and a mint. There were retail products there as well as in the previous room, but I didn't get a chance to really look before heading out. Anyway, based on my experience with Elsa, I would recommend and return.

I carry so much tension in my neck and I left so relaxed! I love the Tula location. The inside is decorated so cute and the room you get a massage in has a light projected on the ceiling that looks like stars and waves of water. It is street parking but I was able to find a parking spot easily without having to parallel park. I highly recommend booking yourself a spa there.

After check-in in I was immediately offered a beverage, which offered very welcoming vibes. The clinic is beautiful and clean. Karisa called me from the waiting area to the procedure room. Karisa is such a delight. She took before pictures and asked a few questions before nurse Lindsey came in. Lindsey blew me away. First of all, she has incredible eye contact, says funny things, and is very educated on anatomy (she speaks intelligently it makes me feel secure, and develops great trust quickly). Lindsey took the time to listen to my concerns and educated me on the process, and when performing the procedure she had such a calm presence and demeanor and made for a more relaxing situation. Lindey helped with lip filler, cheek filler, and Botox. You could tell that patience and comfort are one of Lindsey's top priorities along with precision. I'm so happy my lips didn't bruise! My results thus far are amazing but still healing. The front office staff Dawn and Nick were a pleasure to interact with too. Nick did a great job with offering me a program I could sign up for and help same money at my next visits.

I have done the flagship facial (Foundrie Glow) and the Cryoqueen. Treatments take about 45 minutes, and you do feel very relaxed after! It's a nice little treat for yourself. Parking is kind of terrible - only street meters and they are expensive.

Both locations provide a relaxing, welcoming atmosphere with great customer service. Once you arrive, you're taken back to the treatment areas which are separated by a curtain and have a flat bed to lay on. You can hear other conversations going on but it's still a relatively relaxing experience. My esthetician, Linda, was sweet and kind. She offered me a weighted blanket and explained each step to me like I asked while getting my service. I have done the Foundrie Glow facial, the Clean +Natural facial, dermaplaning, and brow laminating services before . Treatments take about 45 minutes, and I always feel very relaxed after! Thank you Face Foundrie! I'll definitely be back

My facial was specific to my needs with my esthetician, Kristin, asking my goals for skincare, products I currently used, and if I had any sensitivities to specific aromas or scents. She used a pumpkin enzyme during cleansing that was wonderful, I wish they had it for sale. She was thorough and gave my neck, collarbones, and décolleté the same care my face received. The hand massage was a wonderful touch. I felt relaxed and refreshed after my one hour treatment. I picked up a couple of products that I will continue to use in earnest after my visit. The Water Eye Gels are my new favorite thing. I will absolutely make this my spa of choice when visiting this area again.

My sister and I did a lot of research prior to picking a spa to get facials. This place had good…read morereviews so we booked 2 facials. Our appointment was 5-10 minutes late. There was no quiet pre-room lounge area. We were in a small waiting room next to the manicure station and pedicure station. We were offered snacks and water. Snacks consisted of Cheetos, pretzels and other variety of chips. It reminded me of snacks to pack in a kids lunch. While in the waiting area (small love seats) we noticed the wear and tear of pedicure stations, patched with several layers of duct tape. In the facial room I had a brief consultation with the staff. I had a hard time even finding the chair in the small room as it was so dark and the chair was black. I'm 35...I'm not usually so sensitive to darkness. During the appointment, staff took time to fill out a generic card to give to me at the end of the appointment that showed problem areas and recommendations of cleansing scheduling etc. this could have been done after my appointment while I was getting redressed since my appointment was already late and the session ended early as well. Overall for the price of the day, the salon, vibe and quality service didn't match up. It seemed more like a mid-quality salon than an upscale place they are marketing. It's a very small space, so any extra people make it very crowded. I would not recommend a party more than 2.
