This isn't about her; it's about a broken scheduling system. I've suggested redefining new customer to include anyone not seen in 3+ months (since 6 weeks is a full hair growth cycle), but nothing has changed. In the past, the rushed time even left me with residual wax, but I didn't complain. They also raised the price recently and it's now $61 excluding tip. Meanwhile, a competitor I've tried has been on time 100% of the time, so it's clearly possible. The delays here cost me extra parking fees, push back other commitments, and cause anxiety when I can't make work meetings. With no Wi-Fi and terrible reception, I can't even do anything productive while waiting. Time is money. During my last visit on 8/8, I was told Sesha would be 5 minutes late... then 10... then maybe another 5, before being told I should consider another specialist or reschedule. REALLY? EWC cancels my appointment if I'm 5 minutes late, yet doesn't hold itself accountable for being on time. How is that customer-centric?

Especially when getting nail treatments I am very particular about cleanliness to avoid infections and Cozy Nails & Spa was definitely up to par. Additionally they had cute decorations throughout and always have entertaining shows on in the background. I got a special set done about a month ago for my birthday but this most recent time I was coming in to get it removed and a normal manicure to let my nails breathe. My nail technician was Chia. She was very kind and did a great job checking in with me and making sure she was doing what I wanted. One of my favorite things about Cozy is that every time I have gone, I make an appointment, and they honor that. Lots of other nail spas will take walk ins even with an appointment on the way and you have to wait to get started 30 minutes past your appointment time. This has never been the case for me at Cozy. Chia did a great job and was done within 45 minutes. The total for gel x removal and manicure was $48. In my three months of coming here, Cozy has - been clean - Provided detailed but still quick service - Honored appointments - Had kind and attentive technicians - Never cut my skin/nailbeds - provided service that I was happy with

I highly recommend visiting the Haven Spa! This was my very first spa experience ever! I do have to admit I was pretty nervous, but I informed everyone and they made me feel extremely comfortable. Before anything was done they would talk to me first and go over what they where going to and allowed for any questions. This really helped me feel welcomed and comfortable. I received a spa package as a Christmas gift and decided to use it now since I currently am pregnant. I started off with a massage which was wonderful. They placed extra pillows down for me to lay on and not once was I uncomfortable laying on my stomach. She did such an amazing job and taking precautions due to my pregnancy. I next had my facial and foot massage done by Ericka. Ericka did an amazing job! Altho due to being pregnant and COVID I was not able to have some things completed, but they still did a great job by making it up in other areas. I was so relaxed I kept falling asleep and do not really remember my foot massage. But my feet definitely felt amazing the next day. Mask was worn at all times besides during the facial. Not once did I feel unsafe about this. This experience was definitely worth the cost. I will be returning soon! Great job to the staff at The Haven Spa! read more

I had a great visit to Haven Spa. I went in for a chemical peel (my first in a series of three) and the esthetician, Ericka, was incredibly patient and answered all of my questions. She went above and beyond to make sure I was educated about the process, knew what to expect, and was completely comfortable with everything. She went out of her way to research what specific skin care products would be best for me to use post-peel to establish a daily skin care maintenance routine. I can't wait for me next visit and peel! read more
