I was faced with accepting the change and staying even though I really wanted to try cupping or leaving and facing a cancellation fee. I felt trapped. The environment itself was fine although I felt like I was snapped out of relaxing a handful of times from people upstairs and doors opening/closing in the hallway. Massage itself was good/decent but inconsistent in some areas. Checkout felt awkward, with a lot of emphasis/pressure around tipping and packages. I was told to just sign so when I did she asked if I tipped and there wasn't a way to go back. I just tipped cash. Overall, not a bad massage, but the lack of communication and pushy upselling left a bad impression and made me uncomfortable. I'll likely try somewhere else before coming back if I do.

Linh is my favorite mani/pedi girl on the Northside. I've been seeing for her two years at VCR Spa…read moreand I won't go anywhere else now. Her mani/pedis are top notch and I love the privacy of the her little corner in the back of the spa. She doesn't use one of those vibrating chairs that poke my back in odd places. She has this completely relaxing ambiance and everything is hyper-clean. She is fastidious about the hygiene of her materials -- and I notice. Additionally, Linh gives the BEST quality mani/pedis and her prices are reasonable. When she has a special ($30 mani/pedi & $25 no-chip mani), you will not find a better deal, and you certainly will not find better service. She's super quick to respond to my texts about scheduling appointments, and I like how she takes her time when she does my nails. I always know I'll have a fab mani/pedi when I leave the Village Cutting Room!

I took my first trip to The Village Cutting Room yesterday and was very impressed. I got a Bloomspot deal for waxing and Kasia was amazing. The place was buzzing with hair and mani/pedi clients, but the waxing room was discreet and as pleasant as possible. Since my Bloomspot coupon covers three bikini waxes, I already made my April and June appointments, but I definitely plan on becoming a long-term client of Kasia's. Great place for waxing in Roscoe Village.

She walked away back to a colleague in a different room and before she came back I had already decided this place does not care about good service, I am out of here. She seemed so bothered by me arriving early to my appointment too, the whole experience was off putting. Also, the place smelled like it hadn't had fresh air in months.

This place is hard to rate. The massage itself was fine, but the place had kind of a strange vibe…read moredue to the middle-aged woman clad in lacy short shorts who administered the massage. It wasn't lingerie per se, but damn close. But being a middle-aged woman myself, I figured no way she's going to proposition *me* so as long as the massage is good who cares what she's wearing. But to back up -- when I first walked in I asked d a 30 minute chair massage but when they set up the chair it looked broken and wasn't comfortable so I asked for a bed massage instead. She said she could do 15 minutes and I said OK. The bed was in a clean and comfortable private room and the massage was fine. However, it lasted maybe 11 minutes tops. However, given that her technique was somewhat scattered and was pretty simplistic, it was obvious that she didn't have the skills nor the attention span for anything longer than 10 minutes, so it was just as well. Anyway I don't want to complain too much about having someone rub your back and scratch your head for maybe 11 minutes, which, let's face it, always feels pretty good. And it was only $15 (she charged me $10 and I tipper her $5 because, well, why not).

First of all, their hours are crazy and change every day, so I had trouble even getting an appointment made. I went in for an eyebrow and bikini wax on a Saturday morning. The woman who did the waxing was Lainie or Lonnie or something like that. I can't remember and I threw away the card after my awful experience. First of all, you have to wind your way through ugly, industrial hallways to even get to the spa section of the place. I was scared I wouldn't be able to find my way out. The room she put me in was extremely warm, and when I mentioned it, she just ignored me and told me it was just because the massage table was heated. She started with my eyebrows and told me that she likes to work quickly. I was definitely okay with that because who wants a wax to last long? Anyway, even though I told her I liked the natural looking, fuller brow, she waxed below AND above the brow line and totally thinned my brows into lines. I was angry since my brother's wedding was that weekend, but figured I could pencil them in. T he bikini was was very painful, of course but seemed mostly okay. That is until two days later when I realized the hair hadn't been pulled out, but ripped off at the surface so that it was already growing back in weird patches. Gross, I know. I called to complain and left a message about my problem. (Again, weird hours, so I could hardly ever get anyone.) They didn't even bother calling me back! I tried one other time and still was ignored. Their regular prices are ridiculous for how cheap the experience and quality is, so I will NEVER be going here again. Luckily I only paid the reduced price for the bikini wax because of the Pretty in Pink promotion. Plus, if the way they treat their dissatisfied customers is an indication of the business, you should definitely turn and run!
