    Bought a Groupon for 60 min massage, facial, and paraffin wax for hands. I didn't realize the whole treatment total would be sixty minutes. The spa was clean and the staff very nice. Massage was only of my back but it was not bad. Facial relaxing but no extractions were done (which I needed). Paraffin felt great. All in all, a neat little budget place that does a decent job!

    False advertising. Upon booking it is actually said to be only a 60 minute massage. "90-Minute Deep-Tissue"

    This is an honest review. I am not a person who reviews in the negative, I commonly have always exercised a high empathetic tolerance. Two huge red flags in customer service. The first: I purchased a groupon for a massage. It clearly states the terms in the fine print and in the title line. It is very clearly written. 90-Minute Deep-Tissue or Swedish Hot Stone Massage with 30 Minute Ion Detox. Notice, the key term here is OR. Upon original purchase of this deal, there was two options, either the 60 minute massage or the 90 minute. I chose the 90 minute. I guess this is a lie to get people in the door which essentially is a scam. I called to book and am immediately NOT greeted with a cordial service based dialogue. The lady asks for how many minutes am I booking for and if it is for one person or two. Then she immediately asks if this is a groupon. After I said yes. She jumps into an aggressive tone with a strong Chinese accent. (I know this because she stated "I am Chinese no good for explain..") While yelling at me while I am kindly trying to explain that I had two options to choose from and this is what was selected. I think she was trying to scare off any room for discussion or debate based off of her tone, manor, and accent. She expected me to apologize to her most likely for "not understanding" something that is very clear. I was not going to succumb to the notion of being in the wrong in order to receive less service and have her run a scheme without hitches. She went on to force the notion that this is only a 60 minute massage with a 30 minute detox. It clearly states otherwise . She seemed to intentionally use her accent to her advantage any time I would try to restate a question kindly, and at the same time jump down my throat verbally not allowing me to talk and yell profusely. It seems very tactfully exercised to use her accent to have people not actually receive what they paid for, so that she can get away with charging deceptively and booking more customers. Rather than what was presented to purchase. Her verbal attack mannerisms was deployed from the get go and she understood what I was asking. She would speak some sort of excuse thinking I couldn't understand the excuse she gave me by intentionally making it difficult to interpret. I could hear every word she was using which seemed to take her by surprise and she would change excuses. You don't just run a full fledge business without being able have a simple dialogue. I then articulated to her my question about the detox "foot bath" portion. I asked if this portion would require myself to sit rather than lay down. She said yes . you sit very relax. This is part of the Second Red Flag: I articulated that I am unable to take on a seated position medically, only laying down. This is a medical disability and poses no risk to me laying down. I am just unable to sit. I get massages and even chiropractic care which I frequent, there is no danger to receiving a massage. I simply am medically unable to remain seated. She continued to rage rant that this is not 90 minute massage option you can change it to the 60 minute through groupon, and to "think about it" in a loud condescending tone before hanging up on me. (This conversation where she flagrantly rushed lasted about 90 seconds tops with myself keeping my cool and asking in a normal clear tone my points of clarification which she deflected repeatedly) I dialed again, she immediately picked up as if she knew it was the person she was yelling at and began to tell me if you don't want 60 minutes I can't do you. I said ok , I want 60 minutes massage but no detox. She said yes detox . I said I ONLY want the massage portion and do not care about the rest. She then frankly discriminated against me and stated if you have a "problem"(as in medical) I can't do you. I simply told her that I can not sit. So that I would take the 60 min portion and merrily be on my way. She did not try to get to know what the sitting issue was, or go into any detail whatsoever. She wouldn't even speak to me properly to get to know the situation. and as I clearly stated to her that there is nothing preventing me from receiving a massage laying down whatsoever and I have medical documentation to prove that if necessary. she just said I can't do you aggressively and hung up. It is disgraceful how they choose to speak with customers and the tactics to suck people in the door. There must be a lot of easy to please customers as far as being fooled and with low standards. I'm sure you can get a 60 minute massage and a 30 minute detox foot bath, but this speaks to the character of the establishment . Dishonest with Bad Customer Service, who discriminate without pause to understand their customers. Mistreated with a preconceived misjudged notion. Go to someone who actually cares to treat people like people.

But as I've been making a conscious effort to support more local and smaller businesses, I decided it was time to branch out for my monthly waxes, which is what brought me to the Pretty Kitty. Booking online was painless; very quick and easy. And I appreciated receiving a reminder text along as well. I was also texted a couple follow-up questions about my new client forms, which I was able to easily answer quickly. The salon itself is absolutely adorable. It's beautifully decorated with a fun, sleek, and welcoming vibe that made me feel comfortable. My wax specialist, Alexis, was phenomenal. I had my nostrils and a Brazilian wax done, and she was incredibly attentive, gentle, and professional. Honestly, it was probably the least painful Brazilian I've had in over 20 years of getting waxed! She also took the time to tweeze a few stubborn stragglers, a detail that not every esthetician bothers with, and I really appreciated the extra care. From the easy scheduling to the outstanding service, and reasonable pricing, this experience exceeded my expectations. I'll be going here from now on!!! ps.

I immediately felt comfortable. Mailove greeted me with a smile and a very welcoming disposition. After showing me to a room Mailove gave me the preparation instructions and provided me time to undress. When Mailove returned to the room she asked specific information regarding my service. She began the process and everything went well. She spoke to me during the process in a friendly and respectful tone. Mailove made sure I was comfortable during the waxing process. I am new to Las Vegas and as we all know waxing is a very personal experience. Mailove made this experience perfect. She also did the BEST wax I have had in a long time. I will return again for my waxing needs. I will continue to book with Mailove. She was excellent! Thank you for the opportunity to brag about my experience at Pretty Kitty. Love the name "Pretty Kitty"!

The front lobby is a "no-frills" Asian spa (Chinese-operated, not Korean), but don't let the modest exterior fool you--it is surprisingly huge inside and can accommodate up to 20 people at once. I walked in without an appointment and they were able to take me immediately. Here are a few tips for your visit: The Setup: The rooms are separated by doors for privacy, but the individual sections are divided by curtains, so you can sometimes hear neighbors talking. The Pressure: This is the place for people who actually want a hard massage. Even their "regular" pressure is much firmer than a "deep tissue" at a place like Burke Williams. I especially loved the technique where they step on your back--it's incredibly effective! Just make sure to be vocal about your preferences if you want them to adjust. Pricing & Upselling: They are very clear and upfront with their signs, but like any spa, they may offer add-ons. Just ask if something is included or an extra charge; they aren't trying to scam you, they're just running a business. Location: It's in a perfect spot right next to all the amazing restaurants off Spring Mountain, making it a great stop before or after dinner. If you don't need a giant hot tub or a steam room and just want a focused, high-quality massage that actually works out the knots, this is the spot. I left feeling super relaxed!

I I was a little worried because most of the reviews kept talking about up selling which most people is pretty annoying. When you're trying to enjoy a massage, but I didn't have that problem. I would definitely return here again The reason why I gave it four stars because it was hot in there to me like I was sweating while getting my massage so I didn't like that at all
