| - My wife and I purchased a Groupon for a haircut, mani, pedi and facial. First off...the place is depressing....it reminded us of a laundromat, and the room smelled like dirty diapers.The students look depressed, 85% of them were just sitting around doing nothing or looking into their phones. The first thing I said to my wife was, "we have to be here for 2 HOURS?!?!"
Aside the aesthetics of the establishment, the first thing that irritated me was that they separated me from my wife into opposite sides of the room. The student I was assigned was an overweight Asian woman who literally spoke NO English....so she didn't say 2 words to me the entire time I was getting my haircut, and the only way I could communicate with my wife was via text message.
Towards the end of my haircut, my wife texted me and asked how things were going. I asked her if we were going to have the same student for the rest of our treatments. She said yes, but we could switch if it was a problem. I merely texted her back that it would be nice if I had someone I could chat with. She said she would handle it, since she had met and become friendly with the school's lead instructor.
Well, apparently this cause a HUGE problem, as the owner's daughter very sternly expressed that my request had now caused an issue and I supposedly "insulted" the student, and how I need to realize this is a school....and on and on. I simply stood up, looked at her and said "nevermind...I don't want the rest of the services if its inconveniencing you that much.", and I walked out.
Bottom line....I wouldn't go back there if they were offering FREE services!!
