I had heard numerous adds about Dosha... It sounded great... Not true. I came in for a bazillion wax, so we are gonna get personal. I was dressed down, and comfortable... I walked in a quickly got the "look over", as if I clearly didn't know where I was, and was in the wrong place. No one greeted me, they just looked at me. I said I had an appointment. They looked me up and still said nothing... I waited for a few minutes, and was then asked to follow this woman up the stairs... Ok... I am feeling very awkward at this point... Upstairs is where the salon is. I am told to wait "here". I sit down and look around... waiting, and wondering if I have made a mistake... I am then led into a cold "closet-like" room and asked to lay down on the table... the table is a metal table with no bedding of any kind... like an exam table for animals. The walls were concrete and no music, candles, or anything of the sort that you would expect if you were going to take your pants off.... I was so uncomfortable... Needless to say, I have spoken with several people in the salon/spa industry, and they told me that Dosha is where all the newbies go. Dosha has a horrible policy that if someone leaves to go get a job elsewhere, they cannot take clients with them... I met a woman who used to work for them, and she said it was an awful experience... and I was clearly in the wax training room. I advise you to spend you money at a locally owned spa, where people are real, and they don't have cold steal tables...
Pros: none
Cons: rude staff, cold dark wax room
