Mabel made me feel very comfortable every step of the way. Mabel is AMAZING!!! She is sweet, and works fasts. Surprisingly, I cannot wait to get this service done again. CUSTOMER SERVICE: The customer service is amazing. I booked online. The process was simple, and I received reminders about my appointment. When at the spa, every one is very nice and willing to answer any and all questions. Even listening to them answer their phones- they were professional, and very helpful. LOCATION: The location itself is easy to get to. I came from another state and had no issues with the location or finding parking. THE SPA: Inside, the spa is nicely laid out. There are several rooms for the different services offered. The spa is very calming and CLEAN. If you need waxing, go straight to Body Sugaring!!!!

I went to this facility last year. Wanting to be daring and get a brazilian bikini wax. I was…read morevery hesistant about waxing after reading that it causes so much irritation and how it removes part of the skin b/c of they way its applied and removed. So after doing research discovered that sugaring is being used at some places instead of waxing. Found several places in Columbia that uses sugaring but couldn't get an appt so ended up going here. Place: located in the Vista. Easy to find, metered parking. The inside is very well laid out and decorated. A nails technician works there too. They perform other things besides sugaring. Mabel: she was the lady that gave me my sugaring. She made the experience easy enough while being in such a vulnerable and embarrassing position. She stated that she had almost 12 years at what she does. I was hesistant about her application but she reassured me and did not did twice into the sugar. If necessary she used a new glob. She was very professional. Experience: PAINFUL. This was my first experience in such a tender area. I have have my eyebrows threaded and waxed several times but this pain was different. She assured me that new waxers state it is painful the first few times but as you adjust you adapt. I guess this is true b/c i can get my eyebrows done without a muscle twitch. I would fore warn newbies to take 2 pain relievers at least before going like Tylenol or something. During she applied baby powder b/c i was sweating so much. The sugaring felt warm and applied easily. Afterwards i made sure to wash in the store any excess. When she was finished I love the results. It was smooth and soft. Some reddened areas but she applied a special lotion to prevent breaking out. She even went over how to care for the area. The room: was clean and new sheets applied after I was through. All her products looked well care for. The only thing I didn't like was the positioning of the doorway, once she had to answer a call and when she exited I was left exposed when she opened the door. Also, I wish it had thicker walls b/c I could here her and the client before me clearly while I was in the waiting area. At home: the hair didn't return for almost 4 weeks and my skin wasn't irritated at all. I would definitely do it again, with her or a different facility I'm not sure yet. Price: I pay $55 for student discount but the services are pretty pricey.

While waxing I had a million questions about skin care Treatments she offers, I have cystic acne that has left scars and stains on my face which make me self conscious. Kayla is very well versed in all things skin. I booked a microdermabrasion treatment and facial before leaving and I was fully confident she would be the Lady for the job! Kayla did spot testing before beginning to ensure I wouldn't have any discomfort or negative reaction due to my very sensitive skin. Kayla made sure to ask me throughout the treatment how I was doing and how it felt. I am so happy I found Kayla and Carolina Day Spa! My face looked and felt like a baby's skin in just one treatment. I look forward to giving my dermatologist the boot and becoming a regular for skin treatments with Kayla at Carolina Day Spa.

First time guest! Delightful experience…read more Incredible, mind blowing massage paired with an luxurious facial. Wow was I impressed. Columbia does not have many noteworthy spa locations so my fingers and toes were crossed for OCCO and they did not disappoint. All the staff I interacted with was really lovely. I had a less than 10 minute wait time for my services and the teams hand walked me between professional which was really lovely. They even carried my stuff, just that golden touch! I went on a Monday night, during the time of Covid. Highly recommend. Fantastic service and zero wait time. Both massage therapist and cosmetologist were not talkative and I was actually able to relax. Lovely little waiting room with treats and drinks. It was winter but it looks like they are mindful and provided lots of seasonal items as well. The pedicure/manicure area also looked lovely, even though I did not use this service. I would come back for it though. They have a card on file and it makes it so much easier at check out when all you want to do is relax and not have to dig in your purse. The only thing better would be if they would let you pay first before the service so you could just float out the front door. It really was a great time and I am a spa snob. I was just so thankful to have found this place. I'll be back, OCCO!

I would NOT recommend anyone go to this establishment…read more This was one of the most frustrating and disappointing experiences I have ever had as a paying customer. I booked a 60-minute massage and was required to pay 50% of the cost upfront to secure my appointment. My appointment was scheduled for 3:45 PM, and I arrived at 3:40 PM -- FIVE MINUTES EARLY. I have proof of my arrival time. Despite arriving early, I stood at an empty front desk for approximately 5 minutes before anyone even acknowledged me. When someone finally came out, I was actually asked if I had told them I was going to be late. I was there before my appointment time. My massage did not begin until approximately 4:10 PM, meaning the appointment started roughly 25 minutes late. The massage ended promptly at 4:45 PM, and I have proof of the time I left. Based on those times, I received only approximately 35 minutes of massage time for a service I booked and paid for as a full 60-minute massage. To be very clear: I was not late. I arrived early. I did not cause this delay. Yet I was the one who lost a significant portion of the service I paid for. And unfortunately, this wasn't even the first warning. One of my girlfriends had previously gone here and specifically told me to watch the clock because she booked a 90-minute massage and only received approximately 55 minutes. I now understand exactly what she was talking about. I booked this massage because I was already in pain, and after waiting for my appointment to begin, I received significantly less than the 60 minutes I paid for and walked out STILL HURTING. I find this completely unacceptable. If you're going to require customers to pay 50% upfront, then you should have enough respect for those customers to actually provide the service they paid for. Your scheduling issues should not become the customer's loss of time and money. And before anyone tries to dispute my timeline, I have documentation showing that I arrived at 3:40 PM and documentation showing that I left at 4:45 PM. I will be submitting that proof along with this review. I cannot prove the exact moment the massage began, but I can say that it did not begin until approximately 4:10 PM, and the massage ended promptly at 4:45 PM. This was not what I paid for. I left feeling ripped off, disregarded, and still in pain. Customers should not have to arrive early, wait for an establishment to get their appointment started, and then lose a substantial amount of the service they paid for. I would absolutely NOT recommend this establishment to anyone. If you decide to go anyway, watch the clock and document everything.

So I needed to find a local place that I liked... Well I got REALLY lucky to find Stacey O. Studio!! Stacey could not have been better at understanding my needs & selecting the right treatments/therapists accordingly. In the last three weeks I've received not one, but TWO amazing treatments here - from McKenzie and Antonio. Both therapists are among the best I've ever experienced - and my bar was set quite high beforehand. Well, said bar has now been blown sky high and I can't wait for my next appointment (which is a treatment I've never experienced before - Cranial Sacral Therapy with Antonio). I am over the moon about regular massages from McKenzie and Antonio moving forward. They both definitely had a sixth sense for finding problem areas and demonstrated great talent in applying what is clearly an amazing skill set to my particular needs (as briefly stated by me and then observed immediately by each therapist when work began). The vibe of the studio immediately lets you know you are in the right place the moment you enter. The decor I'm absolutely genius (note the lights in the fireplace for example). They did such an amazing job preserving what is clearly a historic house and the amazing energy that is stored there, without losing the ambiance of a high end, top notch spa. Mad props to whoever did the interior design! I'd hire you for sure.
