I want to open a day spa but with the bad economy, should I?

Absolutely! I know a lot of individuals who have opened businesses in the bad economy that we're in today. As long as there is a need, there will be a solution! Make SURE there is a need before you invest any money!

  • What do I need to do to open a Day Spa?

    You need to have a hair, or skin care license first. Then depending on where you live, there are different state laws but you have to be licensed by the state. Its a huge investment if you are not familiar with the beauty industry. Many spas close within the first year. Plus it takes about two to three years just to break even with the amount of money you invested. Thats two to three years where you have to pay everyone who works for you, pay the state, pay for products, without you getting anything. I would be real careful in this industry. You should work in one first to see how it operates.

    Salon or Day Spa in the Los Angeles / LAX area?

    I am looking to get a gift certificate, for a friend, to a spa in her area. However, I don't know where to start. She lives near LAX so a salon around that area or nearby would work. I prefer a place that has a website so I can check it out online. I am looking for one that does massages, nails, facials, etc. If anyone lives in or near this area and knows of a place let me know. If you have been to the place also let me know how you liked it.


    Thanks!Salon or Day Spa in the Los Angeles / LAX area?
    A spa gift certificate is a great gift, if you are sure that she will use it. If your friend has a regular day spa that she goes to, then I would call them directly. If you are not sure, then I would recommend La Costa Spa %26amp; Resort in Escondido My absolute favorite http://www.lacosta.com/spa/default.asp. A little far and a little pricey, but you feel like you have really gotten away. Before buying a gift certificate most are non refundable and Spa finder is not good at all spas, I would probably go with an American Express Gift Card and send a spa brochure for La Costa or if you prefer a day spa,. I like the dtox day spa. http://www.dtoxdayspa.com/spatour/ this will give you a tour. Make sure you tell them you found out about them form Spavelous. You can by a gift certificate on line at their web site, but I prefer to do it by phone. For additional spas or information on day spas visit me at http://www.spavelous.comSalon or Day Spa in the Los Angeles / LAX area?

    It is located just south of the airport. I'd guess about within 10 miles. Very professional and clean facilities, by the beach. You can watch the sunset from the lounge area.
    spafinder.com is great, you can use the gift certificate at any of the spa's they are member to. Im sure there is a ton in L.A.

    Do I tip every step in a spa day?

    I received a spa day for Christmas as a gift. It has 6 different treatments. Do I tip each person at each treatment? How much? Won't that become an expensive gift?Do I tip every step in a spa day?
    You do tip each person. I'm a head concierge at a hotel and send people over there alot. The main question I have to know so I can answer the ';how much'; question is what are you getting done and in what city.Do I tip every step in a spa day?
    No, you shouldn't need to. Either your spa will have one person who sees you from treatment to treatment, gets your drinks and a little lunch in the middle of the daya and generally treats you like royalty (higher end spas) or you will go from person to person. If you have the former you can give them the tip at the end of the day. If not you can leave a tip with the receptionsit. Either way each of the attendants doing your treatments will almost certainly get a little bit of the tip.





    How much can depend... whenever I give gifts of treatments I don't have the salon put an amount on the gift certificate so that I can a) include a tip myself and b) not worry that the recipient knows how much each treatment costs. It depends on the service you recieve, how much you enjoyed it and (honestly) your age. For a full day service I probably would recommend at least $25.
    Yes, usually about $5. Figure the total amount of the gift certificate, multiply by .20 divide your answer by 6, that's what each person would usually get. BUT check on the gift certificate, when I purchased a spa gift certificate for my daughter, the tips were included in the price.
    No, at the end of the day you leave one tip. They divide it up by what treatments you had. Enjoy!! I am envious!
    You have a choice, you could tip them a minimum amount of 2 dollars at each step and leave it at that or you dont have to feel pressured to tip them at all. Its your choice. Spas are for relaxation. Relax, enjoy and do what you please.

    I have arranged a girls' trip to a local day spa. I would like to give everyone a gift . . .?

    I'm looking for something inexpensive (I need 20) that is still cute. I thought maybe embriodered tote bags. I'm not looking for spa stuff (i.e. lotions) becuase we'll get all that at the spa. Any ideas ???I have arranged a girls' trip to a local day spa. I would like to give everyone a gift . . .?
    I think a tote would be the perfect spa day gift.I found some on llbean.com.You can have thier intials put on it they run about $15.00 for the small ones which would be perfect to put everything from the spa in.Have fun!!!! P.S. can I come too? I have never been to a spa.LOL....Again have fun and good luck!!!I have arranged a girls' trip to a local day spa. I would like to give everyone a gift . . .?
    A tote bag is a great idea, I think.


    As for something else, I couldn't really suggest anything else without knowing the age of the girls.


    15? 25? 45?





    But, yeah, a tote bag would be a good idea, it's something that everyone would probably enjoy receiving.
    Lavender-scented candles...it will remind you of your special day there...
    http://designed2bsweet.com/index.asp?Pag鈥?/a>
    vibrators
    necklaces are always fun...if they're girls. Try visiting theknot.com and looking at gifts for bridemaids. I don't know if you're getting married or not...but either way they should have some good ideas.
    cute martini glasses with their names on them with glitter or something, or an embroidered bag works as well
    It depends on how much money you are willing to spend, but I know target has some $1 flip flops...that might be nice so that they keep their feet protected at the spa. The tote idea is really cute too.
    Ive seen decent small size cosmetic cases at the dollar stores. But your idea is good if you have time. You could make them drawstring stlyle also. AND compliments for your efforts for the girls. mamatx
    I think bubble blowers would be a cute idea, even if some of the girls are older. Like, it will remind them of their care-free days and such.





    And bubbles are just so much fun to have! =]





    I also like your tote bag idea! =]

    When is the perfect time during the day for a massage in the spa?

    I am planning to get a hot stone massage, however, I am confused between two times, either 3:30 in the afternoon or 7:00 in the evening. Which time is better? (knowing that I want to go to bed at 12:00am)


    When is the perfect time during the day for a massage in the spa?
    Personally. I would go at 7pm. Your work day is done and you'll be able to really relax knowing that after the massage you'll be able to go home, chill even more and then go to bed feeling fabulous.When is the perfect time during the day for a massage in the spa?
    Go at 3:30 so you feel extremely relaxed. So you can go home and watch a movie. If you go the spa at night, you would waste all that relaxation trying to avoid sleep because any spa thing makes you sleepy.
    I think in the evening because it will help you have a good nights sleep and a good way to end the day. I'd love one right now.

  • Would you give yourself a spa day?

    I'm going to Cancun in August, b4 school starts, and I'm going there to relaxe. I'm going jetskiing, walking on the beach, Chichen iza etc. It's purely to relax. And my hotel has a spa. I'm a man with extra bagage. I've been wanting to do it(like massages), but I'm too selfconsious to do it in the US where most people have that perfect body. Would you do it? Do you suggest a certain massage?Would you give yourself a spa day?
    Spa days are wonderful. Like it or not the majority of the people in the world have ';extra baggage,'; so the massage therapists will not think anything about what shape you are in.





    Most people in the US do not have perfect bodies, only the airbrushed fake people on magazine covers, don't kid yourself.





    I know many men in all walks of life who get massages from race car drivers to fishermen and businessmen who find that it helps a great deal with their overall health and well-being. Many doctors and physical therapists recommend spa therapies in addition to medical therapies for their patients as it improves the bodies circulation as well as your breathing and stress levels.





    When you get to your hotel, you can ask the spa employees to provide you with a spa menu and explain the various massages to you. You can also take advantage of other services such as hot tubs/Jacuzzis and steam rooms, which will add to the massage experience.





    Enjoy every moment of your Cancun visit. The last massages my husband and I had were hot stone massages which are a combination of deep muscle massages and the use of heated smooth heat retaining stones to the massage strokes. This causes the massages movement to soak even more deeply into the muscle.





    You will feel a lot more flexible and relaxed for weeks afterward. Have fun.Would you give yourself a spa day?
    OF COURSE!!! GO AHEAD AND RELAX
    I have before. everyone needs a little ';me'; time. Go for it! Relax! :)

    So I want to own my owm spa one day and still want to go back to school but I dont know what for what classes.

    owning a spa what classes should I take to own a business spa and hopefully hotel.So I want to own my owm spa one day and still want to go back to school but I dont know what for what classes.
    take accounting, hotel management, sociology, business administration, health courses, nutrition, and english or speech wouldn't hurt either. I think this will give you a well rounded education to both help you acquire your dream or a spa, but also put you in a position to run it well as well as have some knowledge as to how people interact, which I think is why alot of people fail in their businesses sometimes. They can';run it and own it'; , but if your business is a service business, which a spa would be, it is best to understand people and how they think as well, so you will have the ';personal touch'; that grows the business.

Have your staff dress as elves with their uniform tops (elf shoes, tights, hats, if warm enough) showing off all the things offered at your salon and spa.

    Anywhere to purchase a hot tub/spa cover same day or any temp fix?

A temp fix would even be okay!Anywhere to purchase a hot tub/spa cover same day or any temp fix?
    A standard temporary fix would be to remove the cover and tuck it away out of sight.





    Spa covers are typically custom made, so that's why it takes so long. If you are desperate, you could visit a few stores and see what they have in stock. Something oversized will work clumsily.

    What would be your perfect spa day?

    Cost is not a problem.What would be your perfect spa day?
    a massage, a chocolate facial, laser hair removal, a cucumber peel over the eyes, a wax job, pedicure and manicure, having a book to read while I am lying in the mud bath or listening to a i-pod.What would be your perfect spa day?
    For you, maybe. Lol.
    I would go for the gold! I'd start with a body scrub, then a wrap, followed by a massage. After a cup of tea and a light lunch, I'd have a facial, manicure, pedicure, and then get my hair and makeup done for a night on the town!
    Ok, Here it is.


    First I take a naked swim in their pool with only women lifeguards in the pool. Second I take a series of mudbaths


    where the women attendents massage me in a mud bath and then clean me off in the shower. Next I get a full body wash three times with something like sea salts, apricots,walnuts,kelp. Now I'm ready for a full Thai massage 2 people 2 hours. After that I relax with a special facial and a manicure and break for lunch.


    After lunch I get a foot massage 2 hours with special Thai tea. Hair cut and style
    I have never been to a spa and I am not into sweating for no reason but I think that it would be great to have a pedicure where my feet were massaged a lot. I have foot problems and rubbing them helps so I think professional hands would feel awesome. I also would like to try (and I'm absolutely fascinated by) acupuncture because I think it could help me with my aches and pains. Constant music playing all day without a single soul speaking to me (I really enjoy solitude). Oh yeah, I would love to be able to swim some laps in a pool. There is not one for at least 40 miles from where I live and I really miss the relaxed feeling of swimming to exhaustion.
    shower, a warm wax, another shower, then the next day go pee then a 2 hour massage for free late at night
    Perfect spa day? I send my wife to the spa, and sit around in my underwear watching football.
    1) Have my dream car pick me up at home and drive me to the massage place


    2) Get a full body massage (hot stones, lotions, hands, and everything else that feels good)


    3) Get a manicure and pedicure


    4) Get a facial


    5) Have someone wash and style my hair


    6) Have someone put on my make-up


    7) Get dressed up in a beautiful outfit


    8) Go out to eat at my favorite restaurant


    9) Then spend the rest of the evening with my man





    ... That would be an awesome day... I actually would like to have all that done on my wedding day or the day before... cause that would be freakin awesome, in my opinion, haha
    fully naked...





    1. Steam room 20 minutes


    2. Sea Salt scrub, rubbed all over my body


    2. 1 Hour massage - two people


    3. Nails done

    Affordable? A one hour massage can cost from $40 to $120, depending on the therapist and the place. A manicure can cost from $12 to $60, depending on where you do this. A facial can cost from $40 to $170 for about an hour.





    After deciding what types of services you'd like to try out, call the places that sound good, and ask what their prices are.





    Then make your decision on where to go, and your appointments.

  • How can i make a day spa at home?

    hi everybody,


    me and my friends want to make a day spa kind of treatment at home tommorow.(just to randomly beautify ourselves,lol)


    were only 14 so we can't do anything expensive,but any tips on what we can do?


    thank you very much.


    ^.^How can i make a day spa at home?
    Here are some links :





    http://www.sheetudeep.com/beautytips.htm鈥?/a>


    http://www.janicebeauty.com/facefoods.ht鈥?/a>





    I think some of these are in the two links, but anyway...





    facial scrub


    white complexion-white sugar


    brown complexion-brown sugar


    *just moisten your face and scrub it on, 2 tablespoons on each palm would do--remember to scrub around the sides of your nose, on your temples, and around your jaw--scrub gently--we wouldn't want scratches, would we? :)


    Rinse off gently after 5 or 10 minutes





    facial cleanser


    2 parts apple cider vinegar + 1 part water


    *use a cotton ball to gently apply it onto your face, use a circular motion to smoothly apply it onto your cheeks, nose, forehead, and jaw. Be careful not to get it in your eyes--no serious damage but it will sting--rinse it off with water if ever. You can make a bottle of this and store it for use every other night before you go to bed. Leave it on for around half an hour or longer (overnight is recommended) then rinse with warm water.





    body scrub


    2 parts baking soda + part rock salt


    *it is good to use a well-sized bowl to mix these ingredients very well. The resulting mixture is scrubbed onto moist skin--especially on ';dark spots'; such as the knees and the elbows--scrub it well but scrub gently. Leave it on for five minutes and then rinse off.


    *since this uses rock salt, it can be a bit drying to the skin. see next item for the remedy.





    skin and hair moisturizer


    fresh coconut oil


    *you got that right--just good coconut oil. After using the salt scrub, i suggest applying the coconut oil onto your skin--a few drops to a generous hand will be good for your entire body--even your hair (not too much for the hair though). this will moisturize your skin all-day long or all-night long. even your hair will have a soft bounce and a beautiful shine. it also has a gentle delicious fragrance that lingers around you. however, you should wash your hair with conditioner at the end of the day to remove the oil and then re-apply it afterwards--this keeps the oil fragrant and washes off dirt that has stuck to it.





    facial cleanser again


    cucumber slices + lime juice


    *slice cucumber disks and score their surfaces lightly to release their juices. as for the lime, i suggest juicing them all using a juicer to extract their juice. this juice is then placed onto the cucumber slices which are now gently ';scrubbed'; onto the face. again, smooth on the mixed cucumber and lime juice onto your entire face. once you are done, wait for it to dry and then rinse it off with warm water.


    *the same recipe can be used on dark spots too!





    anti-wrinkle treatment


    1 egg white+ oats


    *combine the egg white and the oats, the latter in a quantity that will ';saturate'; the mixture with oats. this should form a mixture of sticky oats that are to be applied onto the face. spread the paste onto forehead creases, smile lines (around the mouth), and crow's feet (beside the eyes). allow to dry tight and then rinse off gently with warm water





    There! Hope I helped you!How can i make a day spa at home?
    Get a half cup of brown sugar and a half cup of water. Mix them together and use it as an exfoliant, my skin always feels so soft and use it anywhere!
    you can do things like paint your nails, put cucumbers over your eyes, do a steam facial

    I usually tip the girl who does my pedi $10. I assume there are 2 separate people doing the mani-pedi, so 10 for each, or if one person does both, maybe 15 for her. I've never had either of the other treatments, but I would guess 10-15 for each depending on how involved the treatment is. So I would figure on $50 total to be safe for all.

    A good day spa with amenities will cost you. You always pay for what you get. However, you can overpay for pretension. If you are looking for something all inclusive as far as services offered, check out Chateau Elan up I-85 in Braselton. It's not a long drive from Atlanta itself, but it's far enough out of the city. You can really be pampered there if you spend a day there. It's a great weekend trip.What's a good day spa in Atlanta?

    My friends and I did this last saturday night at my house and I had a Pure Romance consultant come out.





    It was a really fun night and I learned a lot of things about my friends that I didnt know before! Everyone was relaxed and just had a great time!

    What should I bring/wear to my first time at a day spa?

    Go in very comfortable clothes unless you are going somewhere afterward then dress for that occasion.


    You should be provided with a spa robe and slippers for your day. I recommend that clients not put makeup on as it usually doesn't look great after your massage, facial, or steam bath.


    I also advise clients to leave their jewelry at home if possible since during the massage and facial necklaces get in the way.


    If you are going out after you spa treatments, bring with you your change of clothes, make up, and if you like a special soap or shampoo, bring a small bottle of those as well since most spa's have shower facilities and they also usually have hair dryers and curling irons for clients to use as well.





    Enjoy your spa day!What should I bring/wear to my first time at a day spa?
    Your Birthday Suit as long as it isn't all wrinkledWhat should I bring/wear to my first time at a day spa?
    Yoga pants, panties, sports bra, tank top %26amp; flip flops. At least, that's what I wear.
    they will give you flip flops and a robe, but at the end of the day, you'll probably take a shower so just take things you need to ';get yourself ready';, although most provide shampoo and soap and a hair dryer, but not lotion for dry skin or your face!!

    Yes, I am a transgendered male and had been going to the spa for haircuts. I scheduled a day for my self when my hairstylist asked if I ever had a massage. I asked her if the staff would be uncomfortable if I came dressed as a woman. She said ';absolutely not a problem.'; I did dress and spent a half day with a mud pack, hot rock massage, body wax, hair styling, a makeup session and manicure and pedicure, all very relaxing. The best part was just chatting with all the women who accepted me as one of the girls. We shared a lot of 'Secrets'; about men etc. It was a great day.Have you ever been to a day spa?
    I've been to a gay day spa - It's not what you think! Its a spa where gay couples can go and wont get kicked out if you give your hunny a peck on the cheek during your nice jacuzzi soak. I'd have to say soaking in the jacuzzi naked, next to my sweetheart was my favorite part. Justin B has the right idea as well ;)





    If you're thinking about going I would say it's worth every penny they nab out of your pocket! Get all the bells and whistles.
    ha ha funny! I liked the part where I was able to be rubbed by a cute guy without feeling bad and I was relaxed and he didn't know me!





    It really fun I think! It's really relaxing but you kinda need to have the whole day off if you go in the morning for a rub because you feel so good when you get out your like ahh I wanna go and sleep now!





    it's really great! ha ha if you go have fun!!

    Best presentation for a spa day gift?

    wrap it in a big box with a brick in it.Best presentation for a spa day gift?
    I would go to the dollar store and get a gift basket fill it with bubble bath or bath beads maybe some lotions a shower puff ya know cute little stuff she can use after you have your day at the spa to remind her of the gift/special day you to shared. Maybe even include a small picture frame that you could get someone at the spa to take a picture of you two there indulging in the high life that she could later reflect on. Have a great time I'm so jealous!!!
    Hi atty4kids, I would enclose the brochure/or photo of the spa, along with a business card/or ';to-go'; menu from the restaurant in a beautiful card. If you haven't already made the reservations, I would let her pick the day! Sounds like a lot of fun! XOXO Moonpie
    I'd put it in one of those cute little gift bags with some sachet scent packs and some gift wrap string/pieces etc... and a nice ribbon tying the handles...... little scented sachet packs will add weight and a nice scent...
    The responses here are good but the first thing that popped into my mind was an old lunch box from around her time with something familiar to her from the old days; inside there, your spa gift ; a small inspirational book; a small picture frame with a picture of just you and your Mom in it. A note card from you saying how much you love her and can't wait to spend a day of relaxation with her. Put the lunch pail in a box and wrap with a big bow - really you are already thoughtful and a great daughter so being a Mom , there is no wrong way; sounds like she already has the greatest gift a Mom could or would ever want, a thoughtful daughter. Merry Christmas to you and your family.
    I would create a gift basket around it. Go to IKEA get a cheap basket, scented candles, bathrobe, relaxing CD whatever really, that way she has something to open up other then an envelope. On second thought why don't you make your mommy a stocking. I gave one to a french friend who had neve';r had one and he was very impressed
    I would find a good-sized box (bigger than a shoe box), so that it looks like a ';present'; rather than a voucher. Wrap it, put a bow on it and even let her shake it. It will keep her guessing until she opens it.

    You can get body scrubs, eyebrow shaping, lashes dyed, facial peel, etc.


    Look up all their services, and ask a knowledgable friend if possible.
    $150 is gonna get the basic Massage/Mani/Pedi you'll be lucky if anything is left over and like the other person said check them out before you go make sure they are clean.

    Day spa...How much do I tip the masseuse?

    I'm going to a day spa for the first time when I go to San Diego in a couple of months, and I was wondering how to tip for a 50 minute session. All the spa said was that tips were at the guest's discretion and of course I would like to tip properly.Day spa...How much do I tip the masseuse?
    I'm a massage therapist in Texas. Thank you for thinking ahead.





    I get some young ones that don't seem to know about tipping people in service professions. $5 is about average, some figure 10 to 15 percent of cost. When I get $5 per half hour or more, that is a very generous person.





    Don't be afraid to ask them to adjust the pressure (deeper or lighter). It's your massage and we want you to enjoy the experience or at least feel better when you come out.





    Have a good trip!

    What is your favorite part, like a manicure/pedicure, a facial, massages or something else.What is a girl's/women's favorite part of a Spa Day.?
    I usually do ';Spa Days'; at home. My favorite thing is running a hot bath with lots of bubbles and a nice soothing scent like lavender. I have this really fantastic smelling deep conditioning treatment that I apply to my hair as well.


    After that, I put on one of those mud masks and do my nails.


    It's really relaxing and a nice thing to when you're feeling stressed out.What is a girl's/women's favorite part of a Spa Day.?
    I love it all! I really enjoy getting facials or massages. Also when they shampoo my hair, wow that is the best! Any type of pampering is enjoyable.
    Never been to a spa. Not my thing at all.
    My favourite part is the hot tub or the steam room! I can close my eyes and relax for a while and I come out feeling much better!
    the mute men
    For some reason I love the Pedicure....and I don't mind the massage either!
    My favorite part is the peace and quiet. It gives me time to re-center. As far as treatments, I love a good facial and a good pedicure.
    I like the nail treatments myself. The guy I'm seeing gives me better massages than any spa could.

    Day Spa and Salon Business for Oklahoma?

    Can someone tell me a website to go to or what all forms are required to open a small business of a day spa and salon in the State of Oklahoma?Day Spa and Salon Business for Oklahoma?
    Here is where you go to register your business. http://www.sos.state.ok.us/business/busi鈥?/a>





    I would however suggest that you also talk to a business counselor before you do anything especially spend money. I'd call the local Oklahoma office of SCORE (go to http://www.score.org and input your zip code to find the chapter nearest you), the advice is FREE.





    The counselor at SCORE will most likely advise you to write a business plan which is very good advice because it will force you to dig out all of the start up details and the costs of starting a day spa and force you to also understand all of the aspects of this business including the customers you'll concentrate on (your market ) and how you'll go after them.

    There are two options. Option 1, talk to the equipment vendor. A lot of them can lease you the equipment. Just tell them that you plan to have a business and the address of your location. You can't get a equipment lease until you've started the business. Additionally, you will need to provide a personal guarantee provided that your credit it good.





    Option 2, get a equity line of credit from your bank. Also. some bank will do equipment lease too such as Bank of America, Wells Fargo Bank.





    Basically, you will need to have a business location. A lot of the companies will give you an estimate before you start.

A variety of spa packages are available.


    Address: 6740 Fallsview Boulevard Niagara


    Hope it helps!Where is a good place to go for a Day at the Spa in Niagara Falls?
    I would recommend White Oaks Resort. Its not right IN the Falls, but closer to Niagara on the Lake. Their services are much more professional, and their therapists are licensed and trained (unlike many of the Niagara Falls hotels). Otherwise, if you are looking for one closer to the falls, go to the Fallsview Casino Resort %26amp; Spa, that is the next best one.
    check into the hotels, casinos, resorts...there are lots in that area..the nicest would have to be white oaks

    If they filed bankruptcy then the company is out of business, and you are pretty much out of luck.





    If those locations are just closed, but there are still locations opened you should be able to use it at those, or contact the corporate headquarters and see if you can get your money back.Hi, a Day Spa in my city went out of business-- like they went bankrupt I think?

    You should have treated yourself to a day spa also. It's just a quiet place to relax and receive great services half naked. Some spas offer body waxing, pedicures, manicures, massages, facials and even hair cuts. I'm sure the spa that you sent her to has a web site. Check it out and see what shes going to be offered. (Next time get a gift certificate for 2)What do women do at a day spa? What is it like?
    Check out the website and see what they offer. They often have spa ';packages'; with different types of massage, pedicure or manicure or both, and a variety of facial options. Usually options like waxing, hair styling, or makeup applications are separate but available.





    You should try it. Many spas have men's packages and it is really very relaxing and invigorating.
    its like heaven they's no one they to stress you all day take our mind off man and just kgetting treated for the princess we are. but check out some websites on you will know what they offers

    How much does a day at the spa cost?

    I'm looking at spas for a girls day out while I'm travelling with my friends. How much would that cost about, estimated? It would include 4 guests. I would like myself and all my guests to get massages, facials and possibly body scrubs. My friends and I are going to be staying in Winnipeg, Manitoba. Also, reccomendations for spas are appreciated. Thanks!!!How much does a day at the spa cost?
    massages per person for half an hour: at least $50


    facials per person: $50 to $100


    body scrubs per person: $50 to $100





    yeah, pretty expensive. but these prices are just for medium spas. you can get ones for cheaper but i wouldn't risk it because they could have bad quality materials. GOOD LUCK1How much does a day at the spa cost?
    honestly, it can cost anywhere from 400 to 1,000 dollars or more PER PERSON.





    depends on the location
    that would cost a lot


    more than 600$ definitely

    What is the best day spa in Downtown Sacramento?

    I agree Simply Skin is fabulous.





    Arden Hills Country Club (also not downtown - but not that far) has a very large, super deluxe spa. It could compete with the best spas in palm springs or other resort towns. It's a part of the Swim Club that produced Mark Spitz, Debbie Myers and other Olympic Champions 30 years ago.





    I am a spa chick from sacto, but I really don't know of any great salons or spas downtown.What is the best day spa in Downtown Sacramento?
    It's not exactly Downtown but it is ten minutes away. Simply Skin on Fair Oaks and Munroe.

    I'm going for a Spa day soon and I'm wondering what these treatments will entail ?

    I am having an aromatherepy back massage and a hand wax. What will I be expected to wear for these. And what do they do ?


    Many ThanksI'm going for a Spa day soon and I'm wondering what these treatments will entail ?
    For the massage, you'll just have a towel on but you never expose anything private due to the way they turn you round. You'll have a choice of oils that they will use on you.





    For the hand wax i'm guessing it's probably parafin wax where they dip your hand in it, allow to dry then you'll probably get a hand massage afterwards. It doesn't matter what you wear for this as it's just your hands that receive the treatment.





    Hope this helps :)I'm going for a Spa day soon and I'm wondering what these treatments will entail ?
    How to Dress for a Day Spa Visit





    A trip to the day spa can be a like a mini-vacation in the midst of your busy schedule. If you haven't been to a day spa before, though, the first trip can be a little disorienting because day spas tend to be more communal than a massage therapy clinic. To feel more at ease during your visit, you should know what to wear.





    Step1





    Find out if the day spa provides you with a kimono, robe or other spa-wear. Most day spas provide clothing to wear if you're getting full body treatments. If you're only getting a facial, manicure, pedicure or other similar service, you'll most likely wear your own clothes at the day spa, though you can still request a robe.





    Step2





    Realize that you can wear undergarments or a swimsuit for most full body treatments you get at a day spa. If you're especially modest or if your religious beliefs require you to wear undergarments, this won't interfere with most treatments. Talk to your therapist before your appointment if you have concerns.





    Step3





    Ask about footwear. To maintain pristine cleanliness, many spas don't allow people to wear street shoes in the treatment and lounge areas. However, they generally provide slip-on shoes for you to wear.





    Step4





    Understand that some facilities are co-ed. Some day spas offer pools, steam rooms, saunas and hot tubs that may not be private, and these may also be open to the other gender. In this case, you may be required to wear a swimsuit to use the facilities, or you may choose to wear one for your own comfort.





    Step5





    Leave jewelry at home, unless you're going to leave it on during your treatment. Most day spas provide lockers, but it's easier to leave jewelry at home so you don't need to worry about it.





    Step6





    Wear comfortable clothes but nothing too informal. Yoga pants and a comfortable shirt are appropriate, but as long as they're clothes that you're comfortable in and that are appropriate to wear in public, you're wearing the right thing. Even if you don't wear your clothes at the spa, their comfort helps extend the benefits of your spa treatments when you put them on to go home.





    ~*~Enjoy!~*~

    A full body massage, with deep conditioning for hair.What is a girl's/women's favorite part of a Spa Day.?
    Just being able to relax! But a facial is definitely my favorite service because your face is the one portion of your body that people see every day and getting compliments on how radiant your skin looks is always nice.

    What's your favorite day spa in Southern California?

    Glen Ivy Hot Springs in Corona is known as ';Nature's Day Spa.'; The mineral waters, the red clay mud and the scenery are not to be beat. I don't get there near enough but it's worth the drive every time.What's your favorite day spa in Southern California?
    Well, I love Glen Ivy Hot Springs Spa in Corona. The original Glen Ivy--it has been around since the 1920s. It's a magical place; you just have to go there to see how amazing it is. When you're on the grounds, it's like the rest of the world is far, far away.





    The massage therapists are fantastic!





    That said. I will never go there again because of the horrific way they treat their employees.What's your favorite day spa in Southern California?
    I quit going to spas because of the sanitation issue. They never seem to wipe down their equipment to my satisfaction, just be careful and may sure they clean things before you use them.
    The best one is Glen Ivy in the Brea Mall. Very peaceful, with good ammenities. I also like the Burke Williams in Sherman Oaks.
    Spa Gregoires - Newport Beach.
    Burke Williams and the Ritz Carlton are my favs. Their people are very professional, and don't try to sell you products after the treatment. (I';ve found other spas allow their people to do that, and they can get kinda pushy)


    Also, both Burke and Ritz have big spa rooms with saunas, steam rooms, and jacuzzis that you can enjoy after your treatments. You get more bang for your buck that way!
    I'm going to say something different then Glen Ivy, the Hyatt Regency Huntington Beach Resort %26amp; Spa, it's beachfront!! It's like 100 feet from the pier, literally!! But the Glen Ivy is nice too heh

    Can going in a spa on day of ovulation ruin chance of conceiving?

    Does anyone know how a spa will affect my chances of conceiving if I am ovulating at the time?Can going in a spa on day of ovulation ruin chance of conceiving?
    Men who are trying to become dads should probably avoid frequent dips in the hot tub because the testes are very sensitive to heat. Men's testes are outside the body for a reason 鈥?they need to be in a cooler environment to produce healthy sperm.





    It can take two to three months to produce a mature sperm cell and it's the immature sperm that are especially vulnerable, so a trip to the hot tub in January can impact developing sperm that's released as late as March, even April.





    In the same way, the sperm count of an avid bicyclist who rides nearly every day might be lowered as a result of heat around the scrotum, which is sandwiched between his legs and bike seat.





    Hot tubs, bicycling, saunas 鈥?even wearing tight underwear 鈥?are probably okay in moderation, but a man with a marginal sperm count might want to pass on these activities while he's trying to help his partner conceive.





    There's no evidence to suggest that heat affects a woman's eggs, but we do know that hot tubs and saunas aren't recommended during pregnancy.Can going in a spa on day of ovulation ruin chance of conceiving?
    It very possibly could affect your chances of concieving. My Ob/Gyn, told my hubby and me(we tried for 3yrs before concieving, with the help of Clomid) AVOID ANY heat source, both of you. What happens, is it affects the woman's cervical mucus, and the general ';atmosphere'; of the woman's cervix, making the possibility of conception drop. So to answer your question, treat your nether regions with the utmost care, ';with kid gloves'; for a better chance of conception. Good luck and God Bless!
    They say that BOTH men and women should avoid heat while TTC. I would say anyhting can happen but I would try to aviod it. Good Luck
    It shouldn't affect it at all.
    Probably not, but you dont want too much heat in your body it could slightly fry your egg, no pun intended.


    sauna and jacuzzi for less time than usual.

    What should I do for my superbowl spa day?

    Well today is superbowl sunday!!! What should I do for my spa day by myself???What should I do for my superbowl spa day?
    When I do a spa day, I always either do something good for my hair, or I do a hairstyle that I have never done before, just to try it out. That always lifts my mood :)


    Paint you nails, make an at-home face mask if you don't have a store bought one, and take a nice, long bubble bath with a book ot music.





    Have fun!What should I do for my superbowl spa day?
    i wish i could have a spa day =[

    My fiancee wnats me to go with her today to the day spa to have my nails done while she has her nails done.?

    My fiancee Katie wants me to go along with her todday to the day spa when she has her nails done so i can have my nails done as well since i have a very very very bad nail biting habit. Should i do this or not?My fiancee wnats me to go with her today to the day spa to have my nails done while she has her nails done.?
    I used to be a major nail biter, and I got over it in the oddest way. I'm a freshman now, but when I was in sixth grade, I bit my nails constantly. So whenever I found my self biting my nails, I would bite my tongue. Sounds painful, right? But I definetly stopped the biting! So go ahead and get your nails done, but please, no color or acrylics. Totally not on a guy. No offense, but if you walked around town with red nails, most people would get the impression you were gay.My fiancee wnats me to go with her today to the day spa to have my nails done while she has her nails done.?
    Seriously?





    There's nothing wrong with going and getting a manicure done with her, but acrylics and colour!? Don't be ridiculous.





    A man's manicure is really to clean up the hands and nails. Just some nail trimming and buffing is required. No polish.
    mail manicures are totally in!!! but acrylics and color, come on. . . I vote NO if you are taking a poll (to the color and acrylics anyway) and YES to the manicure. There are great color free polishes out there for nail biters that will deter you from biting, try one of those!
    if she is paying, then why not?
    Do it for her.

    well gurl my BFF and i are to this school year is gonna be different we go to the spa every two weeks and get manicures and pedicures also a hour and a half massages and its great. After that we usually go get a refreshing drink and hit the hair salon but thats only when its the week of school like 1 day before. then we go to my house and go through all of our make up and whatever we need we make a list of the make up and go buy it. We try to keep up on the latest fashion threw the enternet and do our own styles too. We also mix and match and expirement different looks on each other to see if its rockable for me or her! Hope this helps!!!
    you have to learn how to use the word ';our'; and ';are'; correctly. otherwise, you should be going back to 3rd grade

    Any ideas for a spa day at home?

    Me and my little sister want to have a spa day before school starts. You know: facial masks, pedicure, scented candles, etc :)


    But we really don't have that much money so cheap and easy things to do.Any ideas for a spa day at home?
    Scented candles are not very expensive. I love them! I recently got some Yankee Candle votives from Target, and one of them is a spa scent.





    Purchase some shampoo and conditioner-need not be expensive. The $1 bottles of Suave are just as good, and they have some nice scents.





    You can get facial packets at Wal Mart for a dollar or so, and also look for the foot scrubs.





    A manicure/pedicure set is not that expensive. An emery board, etc.





    Polish is a necessity! Again, not expensive.





    If you braid your hair while wet, when it is dry and you let the braid out your hair will be wavy/curly. You can also twist it and pin it with bobby pins until it dries completely.





    I bet you could do the whole thing for $20. Just shop smart!Any ideas for a spa day at home?
    Oh to have a sister! Some fun cheap beauty things you guys can do are:


    1. make a sugar scrub, just mix sugar and body wash for great exfoliation. Then lather on the lotion!


    2. For a face mask, make an egg white and beat it with a couple of drops of lemon juice until it's fluffy. It makes you skin feel great!


    3.Heat up some olive oil and dip you ends in for really soft hair. Just make sure you wash it all out really well.


    $. Get a crazy color of nail polish by NYC. There cheap and who doesn't love a fun color?


    Have a great time! ~
