Woodlands, West End, Great Western Road

Persuaded by my flatmates and the pale-skinned winter blues, I trotted down here for my first and…read moreonly sunbed experience some time ago. The girls were friendly, the whole place seemed nice and clean, but it felt distinctly cheap - the walls being the equivalent of cardboard between booths. I came out feeling hot and sweaty and a bit out of pocket. Maybe with more sessions I would achive a golden sunkissed tan, but I quickly realised such things are wholly unnatural for any true-blooded Scots woman, and haven't been back since. My common sense has also moved beyond my vanity now and I wouldn't sit in a sun bed again for the health risks- skin cancer is not worth it. Don't do it. Get yourself a spray tan instead.

Nitshill, South Side

We rang up on Sunday morning and managed to each get an appointment for around 3pm for massages…read more We arrived and were given questionnaires to complete with our details. There was a little confusion as I hadn't specifically wanted either the 3pm or 3:20pm slot, I just booked them both for myself and my friend, however despite it making more sense for my friend to go in the first slot, they wouldn't change our times around. The room for the massage was nice, standard massage room really. Although they do have electronic beds to adjust the height, which I gather for shorter people than me (5ft 10) this would come in useful, plus it is heated. Although I did ask half way through for the heat to be turned off as I felt like I was being cooked...but that's just me and heat! The massage itself was good, she did as I asked and didn't shy away from the painful parts (no pain no gain)! A complementary facial had been included which was basic but relaxing. I advised her of my sensitive skin so she used the sensitive lotions, which still stung slightly, but I've had worse! Arriving back at reception my masseuse, Natalie, had left a postcard advising me to get more massages to help with the problem areas, which was sweet, and giving me another excuse to get more :) Based on my experiences alone I would recommend them, however my friend who was with me didn't have such a good time. She didn't have a heated bed, which was a shame since she is the heat lover, and her masseuse didn't follow her instructions and performed a relaxing massage rather than one that tackled the knots. Overall, I'd probably go back if I was in the area or couldn't get into a more local one. It's handy as it is in Silverburn, up the stairs to the left of Yo-Sushi/Debenhams, if you are there for some shopping too, and the premises is very modern and stylish. Price wise, it was £32 for half an hour of massage, with the complementary facial. It's a little on the pricer side, I guess due to it's location.

Another wonderful experience at PURE Spa. I had a voucher (mother's day gift) for a deluxe facial…read morewhich gives the choice of either an eye contour treatment or a head, neck and shoulder massage along with your personalised facial. I chose the massage on the grounds that you should never miss the chance to get those tense muscles relaxed. My beautician, Lyn, was welcoming and put me at ease without being too familiar. I loved the facial and will certainly try and make it a regular treat. My skin definitely looked and felt better and the massage was amazing.

I am not a big fan of Serendipity I must admit. The reason why? I quite like having eyebrows and…read morebeing a normal healthy looking colour. I shall explain. I am lucky enough to have relatively well behaved eyebrows. They don't give me too much bother. They aren't massively bushy or out of control. Occasionally, however I'll go to a beauty salon to get them waxed to perfection for a big event. On such an occasion I went to Serendipity and specifically stated that I like my eyebrows as they are and I just wanted them tidied up a bit. Apparently the beauty therapist disagreed and decided to do her own thing and I ended up with next to no eyebrows left! Thankfully they grew back relatively normal looking but I've heard that some peoples never grow back how the originally were! Arrrrggh! I really should have learnt my lesson from this but I returned to Serendipity for a spray tan and again I gave very specific instructions. I said that I have very pale skin and don't want to go overboard with the fake tan because it just doesn't look right on me. The tan lady said that was fine, she would just give me a nice healthy glow. What I got was a horrible, sickly DayGlo! I was so embarrassed! Once bitten, twice shy so I won't be back to Serendipity for any future beauty treatments! However they do sell a nice little selection of Yankee Candle products and Bare Minerals Make-up and as I am a huge fan of both I do pop in a make the odd purchase from time to time

STAY AWAY! I started getting IPL treatment for unwanted hair. The first few treatments were not…read moregreat but I was told to persevere by Sharon, the owner. On my 5th visit she very badly burnt my skin. This was very painful for weeks and started to scab. When I went back to see her she said this was normal and I should carry on with my treatment's. I saw my doctor and got a second opinion from a professional beauty therapist, both confirmed that my skin was burnt due to negligence. I am very annoyed with the way I was treated by Sharon. She misled me, didn't take any blame for her negligence or apologise. It's been 7 months since she burnt me and I still have the scar. If anyone is getting any treatment from her please STOP before she scar's you. Don't believe what she tell's you do your own homework.

There is nothing better than sitting in the sunshine, soaking up the rays and getting a nice golden…read moresuntan. Unfortunately, this is Glasgow and you're probably more likely to get struck by lightning than get a natural tan. So for fake tan lovers like myself, St. Tropez is a lifesaver! There's nothing worse than bright orange fake tan or really obvious streaky fake tan, St. Tropez gives you a natural glow that will make people wonder whether it's real or not. I'm really pale, think of a milk bottle that's tinged with blue. I'm so pale, that whenever I don't have fake tan or make-up on people ask me if I'm okay. This was pretty good at school, as if I couldn't be bothered with maths class then I'd play up that I was feeling a bit faint and sure enough I'd get a sympathetic; "yes, oh my, you are looking very pale, I think you should go home." Result! Morticia Addams isn't really the look I'm going for these days so I'm never without a bottle of St. Tropez. It's around £22 at this St. Tropez concession at Debenhams and they have a deal on that if you spend over £25 then you get a FREE spray tan which usually costs £30. This offer is fabulous and you don't need to get the spray tan done there and then, you can wait and book it for a time that suits you, great if you've got a special occasion coming up. The staff are awesome here, so helpful and really chatty, last time I visited they gave me about 20 free samples of moisturiser, exfoliater and tan. St. Tropez gives a natural colour that adapts to your skin tone and gives you the kind of colour you would naturally go in the sun. Naturally, I go a shade of lobster red before going golden but thankfully St. Tropez skips that step and goes straight for the results. There are a whole range of tanning products here, I usually go for the lotion, it goes on dark so you don't make any mistakes when applying it and no matter how badly you slap it on it always washes off to look perfect. Fabulous! In addition, St. Tropez uses high quality products so you always know what's going on to your skin, a much safer and healthier option to the terrifying world of sun beds!

Tans are impossible believe me I have tried. Unless you have that natural tint in your skin it is…read morepretty much a long lost hope trying to get a tan that stays for longer than the peel. I have used fake tan for many many years and despite my now well refined technique of tanning by myself, for that odd special occasion it is nice to get it done professionally. I would never go without fake tan, it has been a necessity from the age of about 16, but there have been a good few disasters or shall we say there was a learning curve. So if you are thinking about fake tan or even a seasoned pro, st Tropez will teach you a thing or two.
