I’m writing this review on behalf of my mom. She doesn’t want to have anything to do with this business and she gets really sad every time she thinks about it. My mom got a laser hair removal package as a gift for her birthday. Now, this was something my mother had really wanted but would never buy for herself. She was sooo excited to receive it and began immediately going to Brentwood the face and the body. They told her that she would only need this package (it had a set number of appointments) to remove all the hair. As she kept going to appointments she didn’t notice any changes in her unwanted hair. She told the technicians and they just relied with ‘oh that’s strange but you should be soon’ etc. My mom kept going and trusted these people as they barely turned the laser up each time. She continued to never experience any hair loss. On the last appointment she went in and they informed her that she would have to buy another 400 dollar package and that that was normal. She told them that this was a birthday present, her only birthday present, and that she couldn’t afford another package. And that they had never told her she may need another package. They acted like they had. She still hasn’t experienced any hair loss. These people duped my hardworking mother and then tried to act like nothing happened. It would be different if at the beginning they had said ‘it’s pretty normal for people to need more than one package’. But they didn’t! They deliberately neglected the truth and lied to her. I also deepest that they didn’t turn the laser up as much as they should have. This review is to warn people not to give this place any of your hard earned money. I’ve read some reviews and it seems like they can be totally fine and then suddenly have horrible service. Don’t waste your time at a place that treats people like this. Read Less

I was a little late for my appt, (was about 10 minutes late I admit due to a screaming toddler) and after waiting another 5 to get checked in because both front desk attendants were on the phone I was brought back for my spa pedicure and spa manicure. The person doing my nails rushed to the front, started whispering to the front desk people and then came back and told me since I was late I couldn’t get the manicure I asked for. She said I would make her late for her other clients. Mind you, I don’t come here very often, and I am a new client with this person, but she made it sure I will never come back. I almost walked out but decided to get a pedicure and then leave. They are rude and not accommodating... I asked to get a gel manicure instead and was told “that’s not the appt you booked, sorry.” Customer service is dead here. Go somewhere else. Read Less

The Face and the Body in Brentwood is pretty decent at making you feel pampered from the services I've tried (eyebrow waxing, makeup consultation/demo, hairstyling, laser hair removal, hand paraffin) however, despite what they say they are definitely NOT trans friendly. I got in touch with them before booking to ensure they were okay with transwomen being treated there. I was assured that they treat transwomen at every phase of their transition. I don't doubt this, I do doubt that any transwoman who goes feels comfortable with their visit. When you go in and get your hair done they don't take your difference in hairline into account, and make you feel very self conscious. When you go in for laser hair removal they always misgender you, especially the head of the med spa. And if you had ever given them your former name...they will use that. Every time. I had one laser technician tell me that she "was Christian so she couldn't approve of what I was doing". Also when they do your makeup, you always end up looking like you're in drag, not just trying to look a little cuter. If you're trans, pay the extra money and go somewhere that will treat you with respect. Read Less

I've had a a couple very different experiences here. I used to get monthly massages, but that was until the day that my massage therapist put my back out. It took me months to recover from it. That was a couple years ago, and since then I've gone back for an IPL treatment ( they had a Groupon deal). I thought the person doing my IPL was very knowledgeable and did very well with it. Their IPL laser head is smaller than ones at other companies so it is able to get into smaller areas like your temples and closer to your hairline. My only complaint now is that on three separate occasions I've tried to call this location and no one ever answers...it doesn't matter what time of the day it is. So it's become a pain in the butt to ever make another appointment with them. Once I'm done with my groupon, I think I'll find somewhere else to go. Too much of a hassle. Read Less

I had a delightful facial after work with Amanda. I was greeted warmly and offered a beverage. I opted for the spa water, which was a delightful citrus infused water served very cold. I was taken back into a dimmed and relaxing waiting room to relax in a comfortable chair and to make time for myself before the facial. It was nice to be removed from the bustle of the whole spa and be so comfortable.It was just the little pick me up perk I needed. She took careful time to go over my skin care concerns and provide insight for me to work on improving my skin. Relaxing doesn't even do this justice! I had a wonderful face mask, shoulder and scalp massage and overall deep relaxation experience. I booked my next facial right after this one for four more weeks out so I can maximize the benefits of this facial for my skin.As I go back I plan to try more and more services and I will update this review as I go!

The service providers I have used during the past three years at the Brentwood location have been excellent. Unfortunately, this location (and in several instances the Chesterfield location) is very poorly managed. Most of the time, it is extremely difficult and frustrating to book appointments. Reception/Scheduling is often understaffed, phone wait times are absurd and when you finally speak with someone, the individual is generally clueless and offers no assistance. The salon loses clients and substantial fees due to poor customer service. It is truly a shame but this problem has continued for years. If my providers went somewhere else, I would immediately stop going to this establishment as it is definitely not worth the wasted time and headaches. Read Less

I had a groupon for a mani/pedi. It was suppose to be for 75 minutes but was only an hour. I was disappointed in the quality of service, the nail tec was nice though. She basically just pushed back my cuticles but didn't cut them and when I asked her to go over them she was nice and did but they didn't look any different. A couple of them did bleed but she didn't get the cuticle. I've been getting mani/pedi' s for 18 years so I know what a good mani/pedi looks like. She didn't do the greatest job applying the polish either :(. Read Less

After my recent experience with the face and body I feel that this review is very important for others to read. I recently went and had a spa pedicure. The pedicure was great until about a week and half later when I started noticing swelling and redness on the inner parts of both of my big toes. I called the salon (Chesterfield location) and expressed my concern about possible ingrown toe nails and they told me to come in to see what they could do and "what advice" they could give me.  Just some background information, I am 30 years old and have been getting frequent pedicures at nail salons since the age of 15 and have never had an issue. Ironically, this was the most expensive pedicure I have ever gotten!  I went to the salon and saw a different esthetician than the one who did the original pedicure. She told me it looked like the skin was cut down too far on both of my toes and that I had an inflammatory reaction, but I did not have an ingrown toe nail. I was relieved to not have a toe nail issue, but rather upset that I had redness and swelling from a 75+ dollar pedicure. I spoke with the manager, who not only did not give me a refund, but also told me that there is no way to know if the pedicure caused this problem with my toes. She continued to brag about how long they have been open and used that as a reason why it couldn't have been the salon's fault. Honestly, there is no way that this has never happened to another customer, I just wish they would own up when a mistake is made.  She went on to offer a free manicure for compensation. I told her that I frankly didn't trust the salon after my experience and at least wanted a refund for the tip I left. She continued to deny any sort of refund so I left.  So based off this horrible experience, save your money and go to a nail salon and avoid them for manicures and pedicures. Read Less

I don't usually give bad reviews but after my experience  I feel obligated to share. I had an appointment for a hot stone massage last week. I was greeted by the receptionist who checked me in and then waved me back to the locker room with little instruction. Luckily I had been here before so vaguely remembered what to do. However, there were no keys for the lockers so I had to go back up front to request a key, not a huge deal but wouldn't you think it made more sense to provide that as part of the check in process?After changing into the robe I went to the quiet waiting area and grabbed a magazine. For 5 straight minutes another woman and I sat there listening to two of the staff having a very heated argument about stolen tweezers. When I couldn't stand it any longer I requested another staff member tell them to take their dispute elsewhere so we could try and relax, which is what we paid to do.Just when you think it can't get any worse, my masseuse talked the entire massage and it wasn't a two way discussion, it was all about her and her life. She was very friendly and actually provided a nice massage but the continuous conversation made it impossible to relax. Thankfully I had a gift certificate so the experience didn't cost me much. If it had I would have likely demanded a refund. I will never be back. Read Less
