I like my Esthetician, Christine, for my eyebrow waxes and I've been a long time guest of Sanctuary Salonspa, even supported them during COVID, but it's ridiculous that we're still paying a COVID surcharge when most salons are no longer doing so. On top of that, we have to put down a CC when making reservations now? I've already heard their explanations but find their business practices excessive. It's keeps me from coming back as often or to try other services but when I do go in, Christine is the best and my go-to.

I've been a long time customer but am now reconsidering. They now require a credit card to hold your appointment. By giving them your credit card, you authorize full payment for your entire service if you have to cancel within 24 hours for any reason other than Covid (which they don't explain). So for all of you mothers with sick kids or busy professionals that get caught up in a busy day, you're out of luck.

That is purely alienating their client base and putting their hard working stylists and estheticians in a horrible position. I asked a few questions and the front desk person was clearly annoyed and tossed me to a manager that made me feel bad for asking a follow up question. On top of the price hike from Covid that never went back down, this is insane. I've never cancelled an appointment within 24 hours but now I feel like I have a gun to my head. Neither the customer or the stylists are being served by this.

Tamora is the BEST EVER. At the end of the day, the actual service is great but it's the STAFF who keep me coming back. Incredibly personable, caring and invested in my overheats. They're not just there to sell me services and products, they put my satisfaction as a current client at the very top of their priority list. I always leave feeling so special and well taken care of.

They completely screwed up my hair. Had me reschedule and told me it was complementary, rest assured. I live an hour away. I went in for my next hair appointment to only have them tell me that they did not book enough time after I called during the week to speak with a manager about how I wanted it fixed. They just called and told me the only way they would fix my hair this coming weekend is if I paid over 200$ On 3.15.22 I would not recommend this place to anyone and cannot believe the poor service I have received. I now have to walk around with faded black and copper toned hair that looks terrible.
