I made a last minute appointment for a facial, literally 2 hours in advance!! I had been thinking about getting one but just kept putting it off. I had heard a lot of good comments from friends about their facials with Shelley, so I figured it was my turn to have the same experience!
When I arrived for my appointment, there was nobody at the desk and was not immediately greeted. I glanced into the salon area and saw an employee but she only glanced at me and continued with what she was doing. The front desk gentleman entered through the front door a moment later. He greeted me politely and had me complete a short questionnaire and then Shelley whisked me away to the spa facial room.
The room was inviting and calming. Shelley said she would also be providing a foot and hand massage during the session. This was an added surprise as I had only expected to receive a facial!
She instructed me to remove, at a minimum, my shirt, bra, watch and had I been wearing them, earrings, while she stepped outside. She asked me to get onto the massage bed after I disrobed and she would return momentarily. I did as directed and climbed under the sheets and became very comfortable on the heated bed. There was a pillow placed at knee level and I felt real cozy. As I lay there, listening to the soothing music, I was comfortable and relaxed when Shelley entered the room.
Shelley informed me she would first have a look at my skin under a bright light and magnifier so she would have a better idea which of the services would be best for my skin. (I have a 10X mini magnifier mirror that's really dangerous for anyone to be looking at themselves in and all I could think of was....Oh my gosh she's really going to be grossed out! haha She wasn't! ) After examining my skin she explained 3 different facials she could perform (Fluid Facial $75, Collagen Facial $85, or Microdermabrasion $95). She recommended the collagen treatment.
I won't go through every little thing that went on during that hour, but I can tell you it was all so wonderfully relaxing! The facial, the foot massage and the hand massage were all the highlight of my day. My skin feels very clean and I feel absolutely fantastic! I need to treat myself to this way more often! If you have been wanting to get yourself a facial, I highly recommend calling and making your appointment with Shelley. She's a real sweetie and definitely made me feel special and comfortable in my own skin! I'll be back next month. read more
