Frenchy's Day Spa

I have been coming to Frenchy's since I was in college and my girlfriends worked the front desk. Over the years, I notied that the placed started to look a little scrappy and overstuffed with random gifts and houseware items...but I came anyway because I get the best manicure in town and when the gals at the counter do my makeup I look prettier than I have since I was 21. I love buying skincare and makeup here because I know I'm getting the best stuff a girl can get in this town. And just recently the place has started to look a lot better! Love it. Love it, love it, love it. The bridal parties can be quite rude and obnoxious at times, though...stay out of their way!!

Frenchy's used to be the "go to" place to be pampered and prettied for any big event. I have gone there for 4 yrs and until the last couple of months thought each time that I went it was a relaxing and wonderful experience. However the last couple of months it has changed drastically. The receptionists employed there when I first began going were all very friendly and welcoming; the make-up artists always had some great product to share and I never left without a sample or two; the pink and white fill that I had done regularly was always perfect, However the last several visits there is a marked change in the atmosphere. Many of the people employed there for a long time have vanished, including the very nice and efficient manager. A lot of the nail techs have changed and the new one's do not seem to be very experienced. As for the make up artists, they all look as though they need someone to do a makeover for them; their make up is unattractive and their style of dress is garrish. They are also not in the least friendly. The receptionists have been coming and going so fast, one never sticks around long enough for you to find out if they are efficient or not. Was the place sold? Is the owner inattentive....or is the owner now paying too much attention? My suggestion is to get back the former manager FAST! She really had a great touch and ran the place very,very well. For quality service I would be happy to pay the price, but not when the service has become so poor.

This salon is anything BUT classy. After a pedicure, the product they used ruined my flip flops. I called and spoke with the manager who told me that it was not their problem and it was not their fault. They neither apologised or offered any resolution to keep my business.Their pedicure was expensive. They claim it is 60 minutes of bliss, but I found out that within those 60 minutes, I got to soak my feet in luke warm water for 15 minutes and sit with a luke warm towel on my legs for 10 minutes. No parking either. The customer service was the most appalling!

I went with a group of girlfriends to Frenchys to get manicures and it was the low spot in an otherwise great day. The manicure was rushed and the quality was horrid! The technician was rude and rushed through the manicure: neglecting to remove the wax from my hands after the paraffin dip and when she painted my nails she missed parts. The best part is that they have you hold your hands in front of a fan to dry them. Hmmm what happens to nail polish when you apply forced air? A terrible manicure with a rippled wind tunnel finish. This place is overpriced ($25 for the manicure) and under quality, avoid it all costs.

I always come out loving my manicure. The place is always gorgeous and the women who do the services are always very friendly. I think they work on commission, however, because oftentimes the people are very pushy about selling you products.

This place has it all! From the friendly staff who greet you with the offer of a beverage (alas, not wine) to the expert operators whose only goal is to make you feel good, when you want to be pampered, this is where to go. They have everything from the standard mani/pedi - with several varieties to choose from - to body wraps, facials, waxing and massages. Right down to the makeup artists who will offer to show you makeup tips while you dry. The cozily lush atmosphere calms you immediately. Sink into a plump sofa, fluff your pillow, sip your tea and let your eyes wander. From the intricate leafy floor tiles to the shelves filled with pretty things you didn't know you needed. Been looking for a particular product line? Check here. They carry things I haven't seen elsewhere. The high end products can be expensive, but there's no hard sell, even from the makeup artists, and the quality-price ratio is very good. Do yourself a favor, make an appointment & feel like a queen all day.

PROS: Friendly staff, expert operators, great atmosphere, excellent prices on services.
CONS: Beware the bridal parties! Perhaps in the name of good customer service, they don't enforce the cell phone ban, although they should find a way to do so politely.
