Sharing a friends experience Hello everyone. I had a very…read moreterrible experience with a business called Dana's day spa in dekalb. I never post about anything like this, but this one really got to me. I had received a gift certificate for my 50th birthday to get a massage at this spa. It was a $100 gift certificate. I went online and made an appointment for a hot stone massage. On Wednesday evening our four-year-old dog tragically lost use of her hind legs. We rushed her to the Animal Hospital in Aurora. Seven hours later we unfortunately had to put her down. We did not get home until 3:30am yesterday. My appointment for the massage was 10:30 AM yesterday. I had every intention of making this appointment. I had no idea that this would happen to my dog. I called them and asked if they would allow me to reschedule. I did explain what happened. The owner had the nerve to tell me she has a policy on her 24 hour cancellation because she's a single mom and has to take care of her family, etc.. I totally understand that. I used to be a business owner myself. She absolutely refused to allow me to cancel and reschedule. People have things happen in life. A business can change their policy for extreme circumstances. Having a little compassion and humanity goes a long way. I was furious and told her to charge the gift card and that she could keep the extra five dollars. I am on day two of grieving Over my animal passing away. My dog who passed had a sister dog and they were inseparable. In her short four years, they've never been separated. Not only am I grieving but my other dog is grieving as well. Had I been clairvoyant and knew my dog was going to collapse and die I would've called and canceled the appointment. I was so caught up her dire situation that it never occurred to me to call. Plus, the situation happened about 18 hours before my appointment.... I would've kept this appt had I gotten some sleep the night before and wasn't grieving so hard. She actually charged the gift card that I was given $95 and refused to let me reschedule unless I wanted to pay again. In my mind it just seemed cruel and really about her getting her money. She never even acknowledged the passing of my dog or said sorry. Doesn't matter but it was just very frustrating. Thanks for listening!

The establishment demonstrated…read moreflexibility by accommodating a last-minute appointment for both of us to be attended simultaneously, considering our tight schedules. We received haircuts, facials, waxings, and a beard trim, all performed by different staff members. The only service absent was Pedi/Mani, which could be considered for future enhancements. Each staff member was courteous, attentive, and enthusiastic. The salon was immaculate, well-organized, free of clutter, and brightly illuminated. We were completely satisfied with our experience at Canvas.

Even a return call to say "no" would have been the least amount of courtesy that could have been shown. It honestly hurt my feelings since my relatives are patrons. I would go to a salon or barbershop. So, any excuse would be worthless. If that is how they conduct communications, I'd be wary of the actual service. Customer service of a quality business is all in attention to details (especially in the hair business. Challenge yourselves to do better.

Had to argue to get a legal refund -- disappointing experience…read more I purchased a $100 gift certificate for my mom's birthday in December 2024. When she tried to use it, Serenity Spa claimed it had expired after just 6 months and would only honor half the value, which is actually against Illinois law (gift certificates must be valid for 5 years per 815 ILCS 505/2SS). After pointing this out and escalating, they finally refunded my money to my credit card -- but only after I had to argue and cite the law. I'm relieved I got my money back, but disappointed it took that much effort. I expected better customer service and business practices from a wellness-focused company. I won't be back, and I'd advise others to ask questions before buying a gift here. looking forward to a snappy response on here :)
