On the 2nd floor, the front reception seems like you've entered a world of tranquility and an Indian paradise. This is where they do you mani pedi. There are buddhas, scarves, beaded pillows.
I came here with a coupon for eyebrow thread, eye treatment and indian scalp massage. When booking the appointment I also asked for a bikini wax and facial.
The Eyebrow thread and bikini wax was done by one of the onwers I think. I have to say that the bikini wax was one of the most PAINFREE ones I've ever had. There's technique and the owner does not like pain and hopes her clients don't have to endure that too. The threading was quick too. She did go thru everything with a tweezer, but when I got home I still found obvious scraggly hairs that weren't pulled out.
Then I got brought to another room. The walls in the inner waiting area were barren. I felt like I was in a sketchy living room. Dimly light, poorly painted walls don't help. there was takeout food on the table, and colouring books on the couch.
I didn't understand why my eye treatment and scalp were not done in conjugtion with my facial. Never theless, it was performed by a girl that looks like she was 15. Her unsure hands and the way she was talking to me didn't make me feel comfortable. Strangely enough when she got to the massage, it was really good and confident.
After she, tells me I'm done but I'm wondering what happened to my facial. Sitting in the room in my bra and jeans, she goes in and out to check and tells me to lie down again.
I was incredibly disappointed with the facial. It was advertised as Facial with neck, scalp, feet, hands massage, eye brow and upper lip maintenance for $70.
She started with a cleanser and exfoliator. I was annoyed that she would wipe my face off with a tissue, and it was wet and she continued spreading it around my face. Then used a towel to slowly take everything else off. Insecure hands.
Then she put on the steamer and 'massaged' my face with lotion for 20 mins. She put some on, and with the heat it thinned and she continued to constantly pile on the lotion on my face. And 'massaging' meant squishing my cheeks from the side. I don't understand.
Eventually there was so much, and she was so sloppy that it ended up in my eyes (they were closed) and it burned. I had to get and wipe my eyes off. And she told me, just 5 more minutes while I was cringing in pain.
Next was a mask, i think made out of rice. It was okay. Then she went in and out of the room for a while. Eventually came back and asked if I want my feet OR hands massaged. I said feet, and my shoulders. But she only did it for 1 min, and may as well not.
And then after she wased my mask off, that was it. No serum or moisturizer. Wtf? I was so confused.
And it SO wasn't as advertised.
My skin was really smooth tho.
So it's hit and miss. I'll probably be back for a bikini and eye brow . But that's about it.
**Update: I did get a PM that the lady who did my facial does not work there anymore and she had not been truthful in her resume. Not sure what that says about the integrity of the hiring process.
