Handwritten thank you note!

I had a great first experience with a massage with Vanessa. There was a robe and slippers already in my locker, in my size, with a neatly written chalkboard hanging from it so I knew which one was mine. I enjoyed a glass of champagne while decompressing in the waiting area. The massage was wonderful including aromatherapy but I'd specifically requested for suggestions for my next massage since my regular for many years just moved and she just did what she needed to do so I didn't have the language to describe what I wanted. Now I do thanks to Vanessa's noting and even demonstrating some of the different techniques. I'm much more educated. I was pleased enough to schedule my next one before leaving! All of this would have been enough for me to decide to become a regular here but what pushed it over the edge to review status was the hand written thank you note I received from the owners. Wow! Just a class act all the way around!

The card that I was told never existed, signed by the owners.

The one star is because there is SO much potential here. It's truly a shame that the horrible attitude of the owner, Colleen, truly ruined the experience. I was there for a spa day my husband had booked to give me a break from nursing during a pandemic and momming four kiddos. Honestly, running literal mud on me would have felt like a 5 star experience. I had about $500 worth of services but had a 10% off card, signed by Walt and Colleen after my first visit. I let them know about it when I booked and was told by the kind receptionist that she was entering it into the computer so that I didn't "have to worry about it on the day of". When I went to check out, they couldn't find that, or some credit that my husband had gone in to add to my account. I asked for them to check under both of our names. Colleen stormed out from the back and was immediately agitated and incredibly condescending. She went on to tell me that they "don't do 10% off cards". I explained that I have actually received two of them, on separate occasions, signed by herself and Walt. She denied that this could be the case, but when another employee spoke up, she conceded that they do, but only for military and visits on a birthday. I explained that my husband is military and I had been there on my birthday once. She proceeded to tell me that once people "hear about those discounts" they tend to pretend they have them. At this point I was in tears. I felt humiliated in front of a salon full of people watching this interaction. As far as I know, my store credit is missing in action and I ended up paying hundreds more than expected (despite having put back a significant amount of product because they do not deserve my business). No apology, no kind words, just a "next time bring the card". There will be no next time.

I've had Chinese foot massages before and they can be extremely painful lol in a good way. my masseur was very gentle with me at first so I was ready to be extremely let down, but man, she started applying a lot of pressure! at the end, she got some hot stones and massaged my legs with those. was very comforting and she definitely went over the 30 minutes so I am pleased with the overall massage! highly recommend getting a foot massage every so often - I'm on my feet a lot at home thanks to a certain child of mine so this was relaxing! my husband received a 45 minute massage which he extended for another 15 minutes for $20. definitely not worth it depending on what massage you're getting as I should've just booked directly through them haha he seems to have enjoyed it - said he felt very soft afterwards whatever that means this place honestly reminds me of the shops you'd find in Chinatown of NYC lol I know it's not the best looking, but it's definitely what I'm used to. pricing is much cheaper than what they have on Groupon so I would recommend booking with them instead of the Groupon. I believe it was the owner I was speaking with, but she said they offer discounts from time to time so I'd check with them if you're interested in coming!

I have been going to Tranquility for about a year now for cuts and color, and I have never had a…read moremore positive experience at a salon. Prior to going into this salon, I had lost faith in stylists after a number of bad haircuts and color jobs from multiple salons (both upscale and the less pricey mall salons). I actually started coloring my hair myself with those DIY box color kits, so I had quite a mess to try to correct when I made my initial apt. The stylist was clean, professional, polite, and up front about everything including the charges to make sure I'd be OK with the plan and the price. Several months later, my hair looks the best it ever has, and I get complements several times a week. Bottom line, I've got difficult hair and somehow, my stylist manages to make it look great for weeks. This is a feat that hasn't been successfully done in many years, so my hat is off to my stylist. She clearly knows what she's doing. I've never waited more than 15 minutes to start my appointment, and they're very generous in putting out beverages and snacks (including delicious cupcakes from the bakery down stairs) for anyone waiting. I will agree that on one occasion, my stylist was busy with another client and my blow out was finished by the assistant, but I believe this happened because they were trying to accommodate another client who came in with some major hair issues that needed immediate attention. It worked out fine, and my hair still looked great. They also don't pressure me to buy expensive products, and I really appreciate that. I'm not one who enjoys paying major $$ for extra expensive frills and fancy at a salon, but tranquility manages to keep an upscale appearance and environment without going over the line into pretentiousness. All-comers are welcome. I've had no experience with their mani/pedi or massage services, so I can't comment on those. As a small aside, this salon also seems to do a lot to give back in the community, and I really appreciate that about them as well. I agree with the review stating that it's inconvenient not to put tips on the credit card when paying, but I just charge the price then write a check for the tip. It's an extra step, but it's minor.

Extremely Disappointing Experience -- Feels Like a Scam…read more I scheduled a microneedling treatment at HealthyDermis Spa after seeing their $130 promotion. When I arrived, the door was locked, and I waited about 15 minutes in the hallway before anyone let me in. Once inside, the aesthetician spent around 20 minutes talking about her business and the products she uses basically a sales pitch, then briefly looked at my skin for about 30 seconds before telling me that microneedling wasn't suitable for me and recommending an $800 laser treatment instead. I can appreciate a professional opinion but a consultation consists of asking the patient their concerns , what treatments or products they are currently using , goals. and thorough examination of the skin . None of this was done . In total, I was there for about an hour, received no treatment, and later came home to find a $250 charge sent to me . I then had to spend additional time sorting out a mix-up in their patient profiles. Despite the circumstances, they refused to refund my $20 deposit, even though I never received any service. Overall, the experience was unprofessional, frustrating, and felt misleading. Poor customer service and lack of transparency -- I would not recommend this place.
