[QUOTE=SpareChange99;4901016]Based on some prior reviews saw Annie Girl for 1 hour massage. Did not come anywhere close to expectations. I don't enjoy giving a negative or detailed review but need to put my experience out here and maybe save you a trip. Everybody's experience is different; here's mine.
Pros. Fairly clean space, OK parking felt safe even after dark. Nice enough lady. Not verbally unpleasant. Although she is not all there. Read on.
Cons. Everything else. Much heavier than any prior pix and 15+ years older. Says she is 55 looks like a hard 55 years. Negative experience in terms of appearance / scent. Borderline gross. And I am not picky. Personality means more to me than looks. She seemed unshowered with oily skin and hair and dirty mumu dress. I declined her offer of taking any clothes off.
Talks non stop, and not about anything remotely relaxing; just her personal history and angry politics. Has no filter and no idea when to be quiet and let her massage do the talking. Just constant broadcast mode. Massage was very firm and strange, and she did not respond to positive or negative feedback about any areas worked; just kept going like she never heard. Stayed on the same areas for way too long. She also has sharp hard calluses on her hands that felt like long fingernails cutting me multiple times on sensitive areas. Even when I told her that hurts was ignored. Seemed oblivious to any feedback.
She has some problem putting sentences together or holding a two sided conversation or understanding anything anyone says. Its like she had a brain injury or something. States she is not a clock watcher while the whole time keeps referring to a large clock on her TV. 1 hour requested went almost 2 hours; but this was due to almost an hour of nonsense on front end about her reading your body and essential oils sales pitch, followed by a repetitive unenjoyable massage with weird baby oil, and a short flip which was abrupt, mechanical and all the while she again ignored clear feedback. Its like words go in her ears and she rolls on to the next unrelated topic as if you said nothing.
She is trying. But I DO NOT RECOMMEND. Would not go back for free. Almost walked out several times but stayed more out of pity. That's my experience.[/QUOTE]Thank you! I don't know why the guys around her sing her praises. I feel pretty much the same way about Maryanne Sommers.
