Overpriced, Unskilled Esthetician
Last week my sister, sister-in-law and I decided to treat ourselves to facials and massages at the Bathhouse during a family trip to Las Vegas. I was very happy with the first service, a massage, that I received -- Anthony's technique was superb and I walked out with far fewer knots in my neck than when I arrived!
However, the Bathhouse Cleansing Facial is incorrectly named. It should be called the ineffectual lotion-rubbing facial. I paid nearly $200 and had to ask three times before Brooke -- the most inept esthetician I have ever encountered -- would do a single extraction. The whole point of having a cleansing facial done by a professional is to have extractions; I can swirl lotion on my face for 10 minutes myself!
I thought maybe I was being overly harsh on the hapless Brooke until later that evening when my sister, sister-in-law and I discussed what we liked/disliked about our afternoon at the Bathhouse. All three of us -- including my sister-in-law, who is an esthetician -- thought the facial by Brooke was the worst we had ever been subjected to.
I would strongly recommend going to the Canyon Ranch Spa instead. That's where we all went last time; each of us regretted spending all of the money that we did at Bathhouse. Believe me, it won't happen again!
