Review content:
I think that the sour pusses that wrote the bad reviews about this place must be high on something. This place rocks!! I got a gift certificate for Christmas, so thought I'd go, even though I had read the reviews from CitySearch. The day that I went (a Saturday) was very busy, but I was greeted by a very refreshed looking, pleasant, smiling esthetician. The facial she performed was amazing...she asked me several questions, and offered some great suggestions on what I could do to improve my skin. She was very knowledgable, and because I had read the previous reviews on this school, I was looking for some ""80's looking teachers"" and waiting for my student to make a mistake, or mess something up, or give me a horrible facial, but everyone there was very professional looking, most were pretty hip looking, and the facial as I've stated was amazing! The place is a school, so it's not as private as a regular spa, but I really wasn't expecting it to be, and I didn't find it ""Euro-trashy"" at all. It was decorated very tastefully and if there were any complaints, it would have to be that it was a little institutional looking in some ways, but again, it's a school. The estheticians that this school puts out are going to go far in this industry. They seem to get great training. The teacher that came over to my student went through a whole skin diagnosis routine, and I felt that I was really getting special treatment, I learned alot about my skin, and realized that these students aren't just slapping product on people's faces, they're learning about skin from the inside out, and learning about all different types of skins, and how to educate people on their own particular skin. It was a great experience, and I can't wait to go back for a body treatment!!
Pros: Great prices, students, ambiance
Cons: gets a little noisy towards the end
