Katie is amazing. I never write reviews, but after my third session with her, I felt a need…read more I went to her with a Groupon to help tackle my skin's needs (and they are a plenty). She quickly did an assessment and informed me that that service is not going to do my skin any favors and to demand a refund immediately from Groupon. The services that she did offer me were very comparable. And she told me she wants to fix my face almost as badly as I do. Oddly enough, I believe her! She has been there to meet me for an emergency session, via text for advice, and has switched up my skin care routine when I informed her about how my skin was drying. It really feels like a team effort. She is confident that she can fix my face, and for the first time in years, i am, too. I'll come back with an update to see if we're successful.

It is a complete facial. Katie uses excellent products. I have been seeing her for five years…read more Fabulous skin care service. i have no plans to go elsewhere. Deb M

The best thing about treatments at Shandon Esthetics & Wellness with Susan Benesh is that you get…read moreto spend time with Susan Benesh. Susan wants the very best results for you. She will guide you through the options and help you decide what is best for you. Susan is extremely knowledgeable and communicates confidently with her patients. She walks you through the confusing world of botox, and fillers, and treatments giving you the advice you need . . . like you are spending time with your best friend. Susan invites you to ask questions and to educate yourself. I feel like I am not hiding age or trying to be a younger version of myself. I feel like Susan helps me find the best way to treat the hard edges and soften the lines around my eyes and mouth while working a balanced strategy to lift my cheeks and redefine my jawline. Susan's education and training set her above any other providers in our region. I would not trust anyone else. Susan's knowledge and skill have helped me to make the most of my features and helped me the best version of my fifty-something self.

I'll start by saying this is one of the best esthetician and wellness practices I have been to in…read moresome time. I would not recommend anyone other than Susan and her staff.

Please everyone STOP what you are doing and get yourself scheduled at this place. My friend and I…read morehave been dying to have a Japanese style head spa treatment and happened to learn that this place offered them. Booking was so simple, and they are very clear about their pricing. No pressure for up charges, but of course there are products they offer for sale. We were offered champagne when we walked in, the staff were AMAZING. The smells, the aesthetic... all five stars. Now the service? Cannot find the words. It was the most relaxing, enjoyable experience. Russell was my esthetician, and he was so personable and kind and made me feel so comfortable. I will absolutely be back to not only have my scalp done again, but to try other services. Just go, thank me later.

This was my second deep tissue massage with Sean, and both visits were exceptional. Sean is an…read moreexcellent therapist, with many years of experience. I appreciate he's not talkative and is good about pacing out the experience so that all the tense areas were fully addressed. The massage rooms are the most appealing ones I've ever seen in Columbia, and the waiting area is beautifully decorated and well stocked with drink options. Both front desk employees I met were friendly and wonderful to interact with. My tip is to get there at least 20 minutes early to allow enough time for the front desk staff to get you checked in, to fill out any paperwork needed, and to prepare for your service. The spa has its own parking lot for free parking for its clients. (The spots are small so if you have a big SUV or truck you may need to pay for parking on the street.)

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.

There was no wait wondering when I would be called back. Kudos to Ashley that performed my service. She started promptly and worked very efficiently, explaining the process as she proceeded.

Her personality is truly engaging which put me at ease and she provided excellent aftercare and interim maintenance guidance. I'm a customer for our stay here in Columbia. Her work exceeded my expectation. If you are looking for a qualified and experienced esthetician, request Ashley. Great salon, great staff.

While waxing I had a million questions about skin care Treatments she offers, I have cystic acne that has left scars and stains on my face which make me self conscious. Kayla is very well versed in all things skin. I booked a microdermabrasion treatment and facial before leaving and I was fully confident she would be the Lady for the job! Kayla did spot testing before beginning to ensure I wouldn't have any discomfort or negative reaction due to my very sensitive skin. Kayla made sure to ask me throughout the treatment how I was doing and how it felt. I am so happy I found Kayla and Carolina Day Spa! My face looked and felt like a baby's skin in just one treatment. I look forward to giving my dermatologist the boot and becoming a regular for skin treatments with Kayla at Carolina Day Spa.

I usually don't leave reviews, In fact this is only my second review, but the level of customer service and massage were so next level, that I felt compelled to post a review here. I got a 90 minute deep tissue massage and upon my request Sara talked me through the entire experience. Her knowledge about massage therapy and muscular anatomy was impressive. But her attention to detail and passion for her work really shined through her hands. She is a truly a gem of a massage therapist and is definitely worth checking out if you need some self care in your life. This massage literally brought me to tears(in a good way).
