Body Restoration Spa

Not Happy. I was Completely disappointed with the results of my 85 dollar brazilian wax. After the wax when I got home and could take a better look, I noticed that the area was not completely smooth (as it should be when the hairs are pulled from the root) but instead it looked as though I had just shaved.

I brushed it off thinking my skin was just sensitive and looking a little funny after the trauma it had just been through, but 2 days later my hair was GROWING BACK!! I called them, the day before I left for my VACATION, and they said they'd do a touch up. Really? Not enough hair for that yet. No willingness to even hear of giving me a refund for what was a completely pointless, humongous waste of money wax.

(before the wax, my hair was grown to the appropriate 1/4 inch length so really no excuses on Body Restoration's part are going to do for me) Thanks for the terrible service.

I highly DO NOT recommend this bogus waxing place.…

best wax. I've tried other waxing places but my skin was either lifted, torn or bruised after it. I like the wax they use at Body Restoration. It only sticks to the hair and not the skin. Even if they have to go over the same area again, I'm not irritated like I was with other waxes used in the past. This place is serious about waxing. But it takes a while to get an appointment. Definitely the best waxing place in Philly!…

Just being honest. The staff is professional and friendly. The atmosphere is relaxing and the place is clean. The lounge room is not really a "room", it's too narrow for my taste but I didn't really mind because I simply was there for waxing. The waxing is as painless as it can be, it hurts a little but it is tolerable. HOWEVER, I must say that I am dissappointed in the results. Let's be real, I came here to leave with SMOOTH skin and there is hair everywhere. I wouldn't mind if it was only a few hairs that were leftt behind but sadly most of the area waxed is stubly and I can actually SEE and feel the hair. I have to go to the store to buy a waxing kit to get rid of the remaining hairs. I don't know if this is normal but I definetely expected to get better results with the money I paid.…

Top Quality. I've never been motivated to spend the time to write a Citysearch review before, but this is the first. Body Restoration is excellent. I go there for massage therapy and regardless of who I have (Rachel, Jessica, Anna or Cara the owner), the treatment is superb. I play lots of sports and so frequently have tight or sore muscles, and the sessions provide significant relief - in particular, all therapists are able to balance deep pressure with finesse. Other places I've gone to in Philadelphia, the therapist lightly touches your skin and the treatment has no effect.

Plus, the entire setup is professional. The receptionist is courteous and welcoming; they provide robes and slippers and a separate changing room with lockers, water and snacks and a spacious waiting area. I've been a regular customer for over 2 years and don't intend to go elsewhere.…
