What People Are Saying About Body Klinic

Citysearch
In Short – Located in a Rittenhouse townhouse, there's scarce elbowroom or privacy--don't be surprised when you hear the doorbell ring during your facial--but it's tidy and cozy. No-nonsense skin care is the specialty. If you're fond of thongs and revealing bikinis, you'll appreciate the thorough hair-removal technicians. Choose oxygen treatments, gentle acid peels, or professional help for your flaky scalp or bumpy back. Body wraps, salt polishes, hot stones, and clay with dry-brushing enhance a roster of basic massages.

DO NOT RECOMMENT FOR ELECTROLYSIS
by Mjl1127
RUDE. Completely dissatisfied with the electrolysis treatment. There is no sign of certification anywhere either. I have been getting electrolysis done for nine months now, but had to find a new esthetician because I recently moved to Philadelphia. I had been going every two-three weeks with little growth. Upon going to The Body Klinic, I notice re-growth within the first week. This should have absolutely NOT happened, I called and went in for her to see what I was talking about. I will give credit that they allowed me a second session without charge, however the entire time she scolded me on how I had no idea what I was talking about and I should have never questioned her performance. She was belittling and treating me as if I had no clue what electrolysis was. Completely rude, could barely understand her too. DO NOT RECOMMEND for electrolysis, if I could give 0 stars I would... absolutely awful.
- Pros: None.
- Cons: Customer Services, Treatment, Everything

DO NOT GO HERE (CitySearch requires at least 1 star)
by FAntonia
My boyfriend bought me a gift card in September for $200, which I kept saving for that day when I would need it most. Well that day came, so I took off a day from work last week and booked myself a day at the spa. When I called to make my appointment, I was asked to give the gift card number. I did not have the gift card with me, so I received three more phone calls over the next few days all asking for the gif card number. I finally remembered to call back and give them the number. It was odd and unprofessional, but I did not think much of it. I arrived the next day and while I was waiting, the receptionist, who was very unprofessional and quite nasty (not what one is expecting for a relaxing day at the spa) kept staring at her computer and shaking her head. I finally asked what was wrong and they said my gift card had already been redeemed and therefore was worthless. Apparently they redeemed my gift card back in October when I had previously scheduled an appointment, which I called to cancel days in advance. The receptionist while remembering my cancellation, claimed that I had rescheduled but failed to make the rescheduled appointment or cancel it. Ironically enough, the "rescheduled" date was a day I was away on vacation. I politely laughed and explained that there must be a misunderstanding. Instead of apologizing for the misunderstanding, they refused to recognize my gift card and offered a discounted service! I was outraged! What they did is steal $200 and then just say that was the policy for failing to show up to my "rescheduled" appointment. It was the worst customer service experience I have ever had. There was clearly a misunderstanding, but instead of treating their customer with respect and giving a client the benefit of the doubt, they just stole my $200. I went to Juju later that day in Bella Vista and all of my tension (both previous and from that day) was worked out of me. Juju was wonderful. Professional, courteous, and not a bunch of thieves. Please do not give your business to the Body Klinic. A place like that should not be in business.

My stylist GONE!! But I found him for you
by LabelLover1968
I was just at the body klinic and was informed by a very rude old russian lady that my new amazing stylist danny (the one with the excellent reviews the bad ones are about this greesy older mexican man i guess was hired to replace him) was no longer working there.... And i just found him too. And just like the other review my hair was incredible. I would have been completely devistaed IF i hadnt gotten his personal contact info. Which i will post or you can email me. Now hes still available and was able to come to my house. It was even better not having to go out after a long day of work. Being able to relax and be pampered in my pjs was awesome. Danny is the best. His cell is 2672070829 and hes on face book under his email brantbaby24@aol I give him 5 stars and the spa only 1 now that he's gone
- Pros: They helped me find my new at home stylist
- Cons: nasty old russian lady
