I have been a client of AvantGard Spa for over 10 years. I have had everything done from waxing, massages, facials and microdermabraision and have yet to be disappointed. The atmosphere is so relaxing...you never want to leave!

I scheduled a waxing - lower leg only. I was put in a small room (only large enough for one person to stand) while the woman told me to undress - she did not leave the room, very uncomfortable. She supposedly waxed my legs - but I got home and discovered most of my legs weren't waxed and had to use a home kit to finish the job - mind you, I don't have much hair on my legs, most technicians wonder why I bother. The front desk staff was very unprofessional as well.

I arranged to treat my sister to a facial for her birthday. We made a day out of it and both received facials. My sister enjoyed her facial, but mine lacked substance. The woman told me I had bad skin (the first time I had ever heard that - I get facials often) and then cleaned my face, gave me a little steam and then used an ultra violet light on my skin for 45 minutes. When the "light therapy" was over, she covered my face in cream and told me I was done. Certainly a let down. I had hoped by selecting the T&C location, it would be a better experience than the one at Stanford, it wasn't much better...Certainly not worth the money paid. I had several gift cards, specifically for La Belle, so I didn't have a choice but to go to one of their locations. Both locations, even though the T&C location was recently renovated, are not "relaxing" and have a doctors office feel to them.
