| - After my husband's and my experience with facials on our vacation in May, we were happy to see a groupon for A New U Day Spa come up on groupon almost right after we returned. I read the description of the facial the groupon was promoting, which was the ultimate deep pore facial, and purchased it. Since my husband and I both still have iffy skin we thought this would be perfect for us. Making appointments was a little bit of a hassle, just because of how many groupons were sold and the dates we were able to schedule. We ultimately made appointments for late September on a Saturday afternoon.
The day of our appointment we showed up about fifteen minutes early so we could both fill out some paperwork regarding our skin. While the fact that this Spa is in a strip mall like location doesn't bother me as much as some reviews I have read on other sites, the waiting area sort of does. There were not enough places to sit and there was a large group of women waiting for other services when we showed up. My husband ended up standing till we were called into the back. There is a little sitting area for those getting facials in the back, which is nice since its secluded from the rest of the Spa.
Suzanne though, is the friendliest facialist I have ever met, hands down. She was open, warm and welcoming. She asked if I had any issues with my skin I needed addressed and asked all the right questions. It didn't feel weird that I didn't talk to her that much during my facial like it has with others. I am one of those people who like to zone out during a facial and talk makes it less enjoyable. My husband is the opposite. He likes to talk and him and Suzanne talked throughout his entire facial. Each of us had a different experience based on our skin types. I had a pumpkin mask and my husband had another kind. Both of us were really happy with our experience. The only issue I did end up having was I ended up really red for the next couple of days. I might have more sensitive skin than I realized and it ended up being almost like a sun burn, with peeling and everything.
As we were leaving, Suzanne even gave us a discount to come back before the end of the year. I don't know that we will be able to get back before then, but I will definitely come back to have Suzanne do another of my facials. She was great. The rest of the staff is friendly as well. They talked to my husband and I for almost half an hour after our appointments. I recommend this Spa.
