Bad Visit to AMP at Roswell Rd / Habersham
Last week I was in Buckhead and had an hour to kill, and I saw Tina's old parlor in Buckhead advertised. The ad looked nice, so I thought I'd stop by and see what was going on.
Bad mistake, won't repeat.
The location is very discrete, the sign says "ISPA" and looks like a high-end nail salon. It's certainly not a high profile place, if I hadn't known it was there I might have missed it. It was very nice inside. When I went in I was met by an attractive woman in what looked to be a heavy satin robe. It was floor-length but looked like she could open it up and step right out. I asked for an hour and she was nice, but asked me repeatedly if I'd been there before (I answered truthfully, been a few years), how I found them, etc. $60 collected up front for 1 hour. Normally I try to find out their name, but she was so weird in her questions I didn't ask.
I eventually got on the table and she started, but interrupted several times to answer the phone, meet a delivery guy at front door, meet a customer in the lobby, etc. No complaints from me although it was annoying. I was undraped the whole time, and had to tell her to close the door every time she left as she left it wide open each time.
I had asked not to use much oil, and she complied for the first 15 minutes, then before I noticed and could stop her she dumped what must have been a whole jar of flower-smelling lotion on my back. When I told her to get it off, she reluctantly wiped me down with a paper towel, but not enough that I didn't end up smelling like flowers the rest of the day. Still no complaints from me.
After a 30 minute (including interruptions) mechanical and uninspired rubdown on my back she told me to flip, and immediately went for the handshake. While she was working I asked her if I could touch and she asked how much tip? I asked her what was fair and she wouldn't answer, so finally I finally suggested another $60 (so $120 total), and she smiled and seemed pleased and said that would be OK. I reached around to the back (OTC) and rubbed a little, noting no panty line, when she casually said that "things had changed", they "didn't do that here anymore", and that "I needed to find another place to go next time".
I'm old enough that, while the little head certainly gets its way a lot, it was a little too much hearing her speech at that particular moment (and in all fairness she was finally doing a pretty nice job, certainly not her first rodeo). I stopped her, told her I "would go find another place right then", and asked for hot towels to clean myself off. She refused and said I was out of time (I'd been on the table about 40 min out of my 60 minute prepaid session) and she literally stopped mid stroke and told me this. I pointed at the clock and told her we had at least 15 minutes to find some towels. She told me "you are not nice" and went and got me a dry towel. I sent her back for a hot wet towel, which she brought and walked out of the room.
So I'm fuming but a little shocked at this point because in 20 years of the game this has never happened to me. I get dressed and head to the lobby, where's she's waiting with a water and a big smile. I told her I was heading to find a better place, and she said I owed her a tip. I told her "no service, no tip" and walked out.
I guess after all these years it was my time.

Not to be confused with I-Spa in Marietta
