Lauren Kijiji

Booked with Lauren from Kijiji, posts as “Massage Therapist”, but once booked she sends a picture of someone else saying that’s her as she wants to protect her privacy. Wanted to know if anyone went and how it was, also if anything was available. Thanks

A greater value on these boards is from posts that help us avoid the fraudulent ads, or the places that are a waste of time or money. Current ad is under the name Laura, recently moved from BC, yada yada. She has used a variety of names, stories, photos. There is never a phone number posted...

Sarah / Laura / Grace / Megan. Same MO. Same BS.

definitely not a diamond in the rough… more like a fly in the ointment.

Way better options out there.

Trying to be fair here (i was the one who originally pointed out her bs), there are two posts saying the experience was good. Question is why she continues to use new names, endlessly? And why not have a phone number if she believes she is a great therapist?

Also, now I remember her earliest ads. These were the ones before she claimed she had arrived from BC.. her ads said she was from the US. Possibly Washington state.. not that it matters. But the never endum BS is a put off. If a valued poster has a great experience, terrific, let's update this file.

I had a couple of hours visits with her last year and have spoken pretty highly of her services in the past, but I agree with Sirus and Albertaman about the BS being to be too much.

She doesn't really look like the pictures she posts, even though she freely admits they aren't of herself. She's actually heavier than any of the ones I've seen her use. Not morbidly overweight or anything, but definitely not like the pictures. It wasn't an issue for me as I've always appreciated a thicker woman. Cute face, but not going to snap any necks on the street.
Her house always smells like she just smoked a bowl and lit incense to cover it up.

Booking is 100% on her schedule, as in whenever she feels like working. She was never ready at the agreed time either. The last time I saw her, I waited in my car for about half an hour past the appointment time before she said it was ok to come to the door.

I would take her claims of being an RMT with a grain of salt. The massage itself was mediocre, but I would believe if she took a few courses or even a year of actual massage therapy.

Pretty standard rates, maybe even on the lower end for what she offers. She thinks pretty highly of herself though, and that starts to show pretty quickly. It seems like she feels if you are a repeat client that you shouldn't see anyone else, and gets offended if she knows you've seen another provider. She's also definitely willing to forgo some safety precautions with no discussion about it, which is a bit worrisome. There's another provider in shawnessy who does this as well but at least she is up front about it so you know what to expect.

All in all, I would say she might be worth a visit if you can find a time that works for her. I just wouldn't put much stock in most of what she says, leave a lot of time between appointments if you decide to go back, and don't expect too much. There's plenty of others out there who are more concerned with the service and don't treat you like they're doing you a favour by taking your money.

Watch Kijiji for Lauren, that seems to be the name she's using lately. It's usually a black and white pic of a girl with dark hair, or a girl leaning against a barn or something. She lives near Max Bell and mentions that in the ad.

I'd echo some of this. Had been a repeat client. She even told me I'd be a rare client she'd be interested in FS with (I didn't request this she just offered and I didn't partake yet).

Now she seems impossible to book with for whatever reason. Also don't expect receipts. First receipt I received from her worked, after that they were rejected. Then I'd get BS excuses that she'd email receipts later and never did.

Take away the flakiness and if you can overlook the receipt bs I'd even recommend her.
