Cannot recommend after speaking with the manager, Jen. I called on 4/23/2026 with two questions…read more The woman who answered (Alyssa, or something close to that) was unable to answer both questions. Not a big deal. I figured I'd call back the following day and speak with the manager, Jen, as it wasn't anything urgent. I called first thing in the morning and Jen answered. Question number one was about the waitlist. I submitted a request to be put on a waitlist through their website on 4/23/2026 for a two-hour massage on 4/25/2026 but, apparently, it wasn't showing up on their end (maybe an issue with their website?). When she was about to add me to the waitlist, she told me they had a 90-minute opening. I went ahead and accepted that. On to issue number two regarding the Refer a Friend offering on their website. This is where the unprofessionalism and disrespectfulness began. I have never been to Essentials, so my wife was going to refer me to take advantage of their offering (it's only a $5 credit to each of us). Unfortunately, their website refused to allow her to login (another reason to question whether there's an issue with their website - you'll understand more in a minute). I began trying to ask Jen if she was aware of any issues with their website sending password resets to Gmail accounts. However, as I was saying "are you aware of any issues..." she immediately cut me off, seemingly made an assumption of what I was about to ask, and began telling me they weren't having any website issues. Once she finished speaking, I explained I wasn't asking if their website was having issues, that I was actually trying to ask if she was aware of any issues with password resets going specifically to Gmail accounts (maybe it's a Google thing - in which case we could offer to use a different email provider to complete the process). She said she wasn't aware of any issues like that. Then, I began telling her I believe my wife had a profile for their website but we weren't able to login to it and the password reset requests were not coming to my wife's email (nor were they showing up in the spam folder - here's where I'm really beginning to question issues with their website). Once again, as soon as the word "wife" came out of my mouth, she was quick to cut me off and make an assumption, again. She began telling me that my wife wouldn't be able to refer me since she had never been there before. My wife had been there before. I believe she may have been confused because of the profile issue on their website (maybe thinking my wife was trying to create a profile as a first-time customer), which is ok. Some confusion like that isn't a big deal. What's not ok is the constant assumptions and cutting people off. I think somewhere in there she cut me off one more time, too. After she cut me off the last time, I let her finish talking and asked her to cancel my appointment for the following day, that she'd cut me off numerous times and that I'd pass on their service. She had the audacity to respond by saying she wouldn't want my service if I was going to talk to her like that anyway. I had to check my calendar to see if it was still 4/1 because that was hilarious. I don't know if it was coffee or what (it was about 9:15 AM), but she just needed to slow down, take a breath, and let the customer finish speaking. It would've made the conversation go so much smoother and she wouldn't have come off so rude and disrespectful.

A great place to pamper yourself…read more My sister was in town so we decided to get pedicures. Definitely call ahead, because there have been times I've called and couldn't get appointments when I wanted them. I think if you're a week out it's pretty safe, but since we were a couple days out we couldn't get appointments at 1 p.m. and had to go with 11 a.m. instead. Since we were 11 a.m. I had a busy morning and rushed out without coffee. I asked if they had coffee and they do, but it's powder from a package. Therefore, it is already sweetened with creamer and sugar. It was a little too sweet for me, so next time I know I need to bring my coffee. I really enjoy the decor of the place, it has a lot of glitter (which I love) and tons of greys and blue. They really like this dog training show and play it on the TV. It's a random thing to notice, but I miss when they played the home improvement shows. However, since I was there with my sister we were busy chatting instead. Their no frills pedicure (which is still great) is $33, which I think is a great deal. I feel like my feet were pampered and I have a new color that stays on pretty long. Overall I really like this place and I'll keep coming back for pedicures. If you have an appointment they are pretty on the ball about making sure they see you on time.

Deciding last minute to get a gel manicure on a Friday morning, I called up Tre Nail Lounge, and…read morethey had no trouble fitting me in. Parking was easy because the salon in an office park. When I arrived, there was only one other client in the place. The salon is bright, clean, and cheery, with gorgeous chandeliers throughout. One side is the nail salon, and the other side is the spa side. Partitions were set up at each nail station to separate client from technician, and everyone wore a mask. Hannah got right to work and she did an excellent job. She was very friendly and chatty, which I appreciate since essentially getting your nails done is boring. When I didn't love the color I chose, she quickly came up with suggestions, and my color was swapped in no time. I love that they use sealed, sterilized implements, so I didn't have to worry about the instruments being clean and safe. The only negative about this salon is that it is much more expensive than I'm used to paying. A gel manicure, with tip, and with specialty chrome accent nails that cost extra, is usually around $36-$38 at my regular place. The cost here, with tip, doing the same exact thing, was $59, though fortunately the first visit was $10 off with Yelp Check in. So - did I feel that it was a $20 better manicure than I usually get? Nope, not really, although I did enjoy myself, and I'm happy with how my nails came out.

Booking online was super easy. From the moment I walked in, the front desk staff were warm and inviting. My waxing specialist greeted me right away to prep the room. She was kind, knowledgeable, and made me feel totally at ease. She asked about my previous experiences and consistently checked on the wax temperature and my comfort level. She even noticed I was sweating and immediately turned on a fan, which was a huge relief! I really enjoyed her company throughout the appointment. She also gave excellent, clear aftercare advice, detailing product usage and when to begin. What I appreciated most was her approach to a pre-pay package; it felt like a genuine recommendation to save money, not a pushy upsell. I ended up buying a skin treatment and upgraded to the package because it was truly a fantastic deal.

Beware of purchasing gift cards if you actually expect to use them here…read more I received a gift card for this establishment and attempted to book my appointment online. There was no option anywhere in the booking system to apply a gift card as a payment method, and there was also no comments section to explain the situation. I assumed it wouldn't be an issue and that the payment could simply be adjusted on the day of the appointment. Two hours before my scheduled massage I was asked if I could reschedule. I was happy to accommodate and didn't mind the change. On the day of the appointment, my therapist was friendly. However, during my prenatal massage she provided a lot of unsolicited advice throughout the session, which made it difficult to fully relax at a time in pregnancy when relaxation is especially important. Still, I was willing to overlook that part of the experience. The real issue happened at checkout. I was told I could not use my gift card for the service because the appointment had been marked as "prepaid." When I explained that their online booking system doesn't provide any option to apply a gift card, there was no willingness to adjust the payment or offer any kind of accommodation. Situations like this raise concerns about poor booking systems, lack of customer flexibility, and business practices that ultimately leave customers stuck with gift cards they cannot use as expected. Customer service and long-term client relationships don't seem to be a priority here. Unfortunately, this experience ensured that I won't be returning and the gift card meant to bring in a new customer ended up doing the opposite.

Their own brochure lists the package at $4,300, so with 50% off it should have been around $2,150. However, when I arrived at 12:30 pm with my husband to book, the front desk staff told me the package is $7,000, and with 50% off they would do it for $3,500. This is completely different from what was advertised. When I pointed this out (in front of two other clients), there was no apology or explanation offered. This feels like false advertising / clickbait, and it was very disappointing -- especially from a brand with multiple offices. Patients should be able to trust the information in brochures and online promotions, not find out that "prices are decided in-office." I left without booking because I did not feel respected or treated honestly. I hope Arviv takes this feedback seriously and practices transparent, consistent pricing going forward.
