I have been a regular client at the same salon for nearly twenty years.
While there’s been a changeover of some of the aestheticians, new services introduced and several price increases, I remain loyal.
I keep a standing appointment every other Saturday and look forward to it. There have been times in my life when I struggled to afford the treatments or find the time for them. I know that taking good care of myself makes me happy. Taking a few hours to be selfish, relax and enjoy some pampering puts me in a better state of mind. I sometimes schedule a manicure and pedicure that feels wonderful and is ideal before attending an event. Knowing my nails are neat, tidy, clean and polished gives me a bit of extra confidence. Once per month, I schedule a cut and color for my hair. The stylish covers the gray in my roots, gets rid of any split ends and applies treatments that improve the shine, strength and silkiness of my hair. I typically have my eyebrows shaped at the same time. I prefer the sugaring process over waxing and plucking. It’s totally natural, much easier on my skin and less painful. At least once per month, I sign up for an intensive, hour-long massage session. There are all different types of massages available, depending on whether I’m targeting relaxation or specific aches or pains. Every trip to the salon includes a facial. I absolutely love getting a facial. The process opens up my pores, removes toxin, exfoliates and combats blemishes and discoloration. My skin is softer, brighter, more supple and clear.
