By far the WORST EXPERIENCE EVER!!!!!
Contributor at Insider Pages
Ok so I'm not one to really complain, or rant and rave about things, but I think it's my duty to let other people know about the horrible experience I had at TBC Day Spa. First off, whoever runs the damn buisness runs it like he/she has his/her head up someone's ass. There was NO organization, (my appt was supposed to be at 1, didn't get in until 2 because there was a problem with the sauna), my message therapist was awesome, but the whole place was just gaudy. I then had a facial which was just horrible. This lady didn't know what the hell she was doing. Nothing was sanitary!!! I swear there was strips from someones brazilian waxing laying on the floor!!! I also told the esthetician that my face was extremely sensative yet she went and tore my face to hell anyway...using horrid chemicals that left maks on my face for weeks!!! (Burns is what i found out they were!!!) Needless to say I won't be going back there and nor do i recommend it to ANYONE!!!
New owners are fab!

I've been to this place before and had my appointment get messed up. I just recently stopped in again to learn they are under new management. The staff is really friendly and very eager to help. The facials are a great price! I've made a few appointments and was extremely happy with my services! They offer just about everything there except nails. Great prices, great location!
- Pros: better organized, updating decor
Not kid friendly!

I am a past client of Elegance and I definitely would never bring your children to this spa. I went there to get my hair done and out of the blue one of the asain employees came out and starting yelling. Not only was she yelling, she was extremely rude. There was multiple cuss words being said and I had to actually sent my children to the car so they wouldn't hear the horrible language. That's NOT okay!
- Pros: the hairstylist did a good job
- Cons: language was horrible, dress code not inforced
Worst spa expierence ever!

I would NOT recommend this spa to anyone! I had a massage scheduled about 2 months ago and the therapist never showed up. I tried again a couple weeks ago and again, nobody showed up. I would have to say this is the most unorganized spa I've ever been to! Whoever you are below me, you are a fool! At least when I scheduled massages with Therapeutic, I actually got it. Again, I recommend this spa to no one!
**Under new Management**

I am so sorry for everyone out there that came here when Darlene was the owner. We are under new management now and are called Elegance Massage and Day Spa. We have changed some prices are very clean and sanitary and we are also updating the decor in here. We DO ACCEPT WALK INS now. We have a great staff here now and we do read your paperwork and listen to your needs. Please come in and give us a try, please don't let Darlene ruin your experience with us. We have lots of specials going on right now for the Christmas holiday. If you buy any spa package we will give you our Balance Package half off. Also right now if you are a new customer, which is everybody for us, you get a 10% discount on any of our services. WE WILL BE OPENING OUR NEW AND IMPROVED HAIR SALON IN JANUARY. We have some of the best Massage Therapist in town now and we will have the best Hairdressers too!!! We are still closed on Sundays but will be open 7 days a week starting the new year. Again I am sorry for all of you that had to deal with Darlene's bad attitude, please if you posted a bad comment, come in and see us and let us show you how a relaxing day spa visit should be!!!
From the new owners and staff at ELEGANCE MASSAGE AND DAY SPA, formally TBC Day Spa.
- Pros: Walk-ins available, friendly and knowledgable staff
- Cons: Just starting out, still redecorating
I know, I worked there

The owner is the aesthetician who does all services other than massage. She doesn't use sheets on her table, as others have noticed- I'm sure that's a health violation. Darlene is cranky and possibly the worst boss I've ever had (tough competition for my current boss at a spa, it must run in the business!) For the money there are much better places in town, that I would highly recommend going to first.
Friendly, courteous staff
by dlvcwpin at Citysearch
I strongly disagree with the user who said that the staff were rude. I found everyone to be very pleasant.
Regarding the comment that the girl told her husband she could walk in, perhaps her husband just goofed. My hubby bought me a gift certificate, and the certificate specifically stated to call to set up an appt and even included a blank appt card.
As far as specifying certain things on the card and having her instructions ignored, I have to disagree there as well. Everyone who worked on me looked at my paperwork and even asked questions about my requests.
Now, I will admit that this is not necessarily a high end spa. The decor is a bit dated and certain areas did seem cluttered, as one user mentioned. However, overall it seemed quite clean to me- nothing seemed dirty or unsanitary.
Overall, I had a very pleasant experience and would go back.
- Pros: friendly staff, skilled at what they do
- Cons: decor is rather dated
poor service,rude employees

Not recommened
by berrystoli at Citysearch
closed sundays. Average spa in town, not the best I've been too. Pricing is okay, services are limited
Ask for discounts
by kimijune at Citysearch
No walk-in appointments. Friendly people, the facial room is a multipurpose room that seemed cluttered. Simple facial, average prices.
