I went to a salon above a "dental spa" in a town close to my home a few months ago. I went for an LED Facial, to see how other companies do it (As I teach this and wanted to do a bit of reserach into other companies machines!). I wasn't expecting a very hands on treatment...but what I got was a very hands OFF treatment!!!
The therapist who saw me was in sweatpants and an airtex t-shirt...but they also did vibroplates etc, so I let it slide..! She took me into a massive room that had a couch at one end, with the LED machine next to it. The couch was bare, no couch cover, no blankets, no towels, and nothing to cover me with either. It was the middle of summer but that's not the point!!!
No consultation at all, just a sales pitch to try to get me to upgrade to a better mask than the one that was included..which I declined!
I lay down, she stood next to the couch, facing me, and she proceded to "tickle" my face with a baby wipe..!! No nice cleanser, no warm mitts or sponges, and absolutely no human contact at all. I had worn a bit of makeup that day and it didn't remove even half of it...a very half hearted attempt!
I got a serum with my facial, which she pumped out of the bottle directly onto my face..! A line on my forehead, down my nose, line on each cheek and a squidge on my chin. Then, with a tissue, she sort of smeared the squidges of serum all over my face. Not a nice feeling, it was almost as if she didn't want to touch me at all!
She put goggles on, put the LED canopy over my face, and left me there for 30 minutes. On my own. No music. No blanket. No nice realxing massage. My God was I bored!!!!! Thought I'd have a look around the room but the goggles stopped me seeing much. After 30 minutes it beeped loudly....and after a minute she came back in, removed LED canopy and goggles, and smeared a thick night cream on my face, even though it was about 11am on a sunny day (Similar method to serum squidges, but with a spatula dipped into the jar, on my face, and back into the jar...nice!). Told me to rub the cream in myself.
I left, and will NEVER go back. How awful!!!!!
