Rendezvous Full Service Salon & Day Spa

As an African-​American it is difficult to find a place on Staten Island where you can relax and enjoy due the prejudices that exist here. I would like to thank the lady that gave the review because now I won’t waste my money at Island bliss spa. I’m a Registered Nurse and have to deal with the day to day job stresses as well as the usual life stresses; I want to go to a place where I feel comfortable and don’t have to worry about how I’m going to be treated because of the color of my skin.

When entered the place I found it to be clean. I was offered a seat in the waiting area and offered tea or water. My Nail specialist very nice young lady with a knowledge about nail care. I came for spa mani/​pedi. This place also has a hair salon in a room off from the nail service area the door is open and you can hear all the chatter. The lunch area is off from the Nail area and you can hear all that chatter. A very noisy place. But the foot massage and the melted wax poured over my legs was divine. You have big comfy salon chairs to sit on and they will bring you water or tea. While I adored the lady giving me my nail treatments the place was over all very noisy as the nail salon is an open area that must be shared to gain access to other rooms with no door and banal chatter. They have massage rooms and steam showers and a room for facials. So why won’t I go back? The hair dresser was an older brassy blond with some real racial problems. She was speaking loudly about those black monkeys in wigs. I caught my breath. The girl was working with me did the same, she actually froze like she had been struck. The hair dresser was allowed to carry on her tirade which could be heard in a least three rooms. It spoiled the whole experience and I will not be coming back.
