I was given a Living Social deal for a gift and I was excited to get a 60 minute massage and 30 minute facial or foot treatment. I called a number that turned out to be a cell phone judging by the terrible reception. The person was unable to tell me what the foot treatment was so I went with the facial--huge mistake! I got to the new Uptown location 15 minutes early, as they asked me to do. The store was locked. I waited at a nearby table (it is in Calhoun square) and they called me at 5 minutes past my appointment time wondering where I was--well, the door was still locked! Someone came to let me in and I filled out the needed paperwork. I was brought into a room that was chilly and not very relaxing. There was a sheet on the massage table, but no blanket. Immediately the masseuse started trying to sell me stuff--no thanks! The massage was fine, nothing special. Then came time for the facial--she mentioned that the wax was a little warm and she would wait for it to cool down. She waited for about 30 seconds. She then tried to apply the wax to my face and it was scorching hot! I asked her to stop and wait for it to cool longer. A few minutes later she tried again and it was hot, but bearable. She then put some gauze on my face and then a cool compress. After a few minutes she removed everything. She told me I was finished and there was a little bit of wax in my hair. Apparently that was the 30 minute facial. I checked my watch as I got dressed and it was one hour and seventeen minutes after the start of my appointment, but I didn't start my appointment until at least 15 minutes late and my deal was for a total of 90 minutes of services! Add that to the fact that a "little bit of wax" in my hair was giant clumps from the roots of my hair all the way back to the crown of my head! I couldn't even pick it out--I had to go home immediately to comb it out and wash my hair--a total disaster! I emailed the salon and never heard back. DO NOT GO HERE! Terrible!

This was the worst experience I have ever had. I showed up to this office building off the 394 frontage road, which seemed to be closed. There were no cars in the parking lot. I called and they told me to wait for someone to let me in. Another car pulled up and let me into the building, this woman was also the service provider. She took 25(!!) minutes to set up for me and once I was on the table she took another 10 minutes to start the facial. Her nails were long and dirty and all I was thinking was 'why am i still here?' It was a nightmare. The appointment took 45 minutes longer than it should have because she was not prepared to start on time. Good thing it was a Saturday and I didn't have plans to be any where. Living social, Crowd Cut, Trubates, and Groupon buyers beware!! Do not buy this deal, it is not worth the savings and other spas will have offers within days of this one.
