OK, you got the kids outfitted with new clothes and bought their school supplies. You've been a good mom and ignored yourself for how long? A month, two months? More?  Now it's your turn to take care of YOU! And best of all with the kids in school, you now have time to do this.

When was the last time you really took care of yourself or did something just for you? When was your last wrap? Remember, while it's your job to take care of your family it's also your job to take care of yourself. It's no one else's job, just yours.

That would be wonderful, right?!   All you have to do to make that a reality is pick up the phone, call your favorite Wrap Technician, (me, Ashley) and get started. 

Remember when you come in for your appointments at Body Nouveaux Spa,  make sure to wear in your tightest jeans and keep wearing them in for each wrap until they get too loose to wear. Then go have fun buying a new skinny pair!

You have a lot of choices, chose our basic slender tone wrap, OR amp it up a bit and upgrade to our anti-aging or body lift wraps. Your choice. You will lose inches with any of these, and who doesn't want to look and feel younger? Who doesn't want to relax and get the aging stress off their face and body? So which one would you like to give a try?  You don't have to choose just one, you know, try alternating them. PLUS, right now we are running some great specials on our packages.  Our 5 wrap package earns you one of our upgraded wraps for FREE!    

 Do you work with your kids and help them make goals, why not make some goals for yourself?  What size clothes would you like to wear, what weight are you happiest at? How old are you content to appear? You can roll back the clock like so many others have. Why do you think the movie stars get wrapped before any of their award shows? They want to not only look good, but these wraps make them feel amazing!  It's no secret the stars do it, and ALL my current body wrap clients come in for the same reasons!   We all want to look and feel better!

Real Men Get Facials

Real Men Get Facials

            One of our employees recently convinced a new client to come in and get a facial. He (yes, he) was nervous about coming in for a facial and didn’t know much about them. His skin wasn’t particularly problematic but he had just visited Mexico and been in the sun for five days straight and felt that would be a good time to come in. When he was done with his facial he walked out and said, “that was so relaxing and my skin feels so great. I needed that.”

This posed the question to us of, “why is it so much more common for women to get facials than men?” Even though we have plenty of male clients that come into the spa and their company is always so great, the ratio is still way off. We decided to dive into research on the benefits of facials for men to rid them of the “girls only” stereotypes.

To start off you simply get to relax. You get 30 minutes or an hour of stress relief. Our facials include a bit of face, head, and neck massage along with massaging the product onto the face. This part is amazing for both men and women…what’s gender mean to a little relaxation?!

As far as the specific benefits for men, we found that men sometimes need facials more than women because of their course skin. Men typically have rougher and tougher skin that needs proper and extra care. Also, men are more likely to skip the sunscreen. In a recent survey only 51 percent of men reported to using sunscreen in the past 12 months. This means that a man’s face is going to have a lot more sun damage, something a facial can help with.

Another thing that makes getting facials a thing for men to do is the fact that men produce more oil. According to Doctor of Dermatology, Joshua Zeichner, men have higher levels of testosterone, which in turn explains the reason why they produce more oil. Oil can clog your pores and lead to blackheads and pimples. Our estheticians perform extractions to clear out clogged pores, as well as apply the proper products for oil control.

A smoother shave? Can’t complain about that and that’s another thing facials can do. Inflammation, irritation, and razor burn are some of the side effects of shaving that facials can take care of. The steam used in our facials opens up pores to release oil and also soften ingrown hairs.

The last awesome thing we’re thinking men might be interested in is wrinkle smoothing. Some of our Image Skincare products, along overall great care of your face will help slow down the aging process that includes wrinkles and spotting.

As you can see, there are so many different reasons why facials should be for both men and women. The benefits for both genders can differ but overall, you’re treating your skin the way it deserves to be treated. It’s important to take care of our skin, as it is so gentle. So come on in to Body Nouveaux Spa and get a facial, no matter whom you are!

Nufree Wax is our waxing brand of choice!

  Ahhh, the season of sun, sand, and swimsuits is upon us! And what is just around the corner, Spring Break 2016! As the weather warms up, the layers start to come off which means . . . it's time for a tidy up!

     "Spring cleaning" the house may be also on your list, but we're talking about waxing. The most popular waxing service we offer is the Brazilian Wax. This subject can be tricky and sticky (pun intended) but for most of us, it's a necessity when it comes to Summer grooming.

     I'm not going to say it's the "best" feeling in the world, but there are certain things you should be doing to ensure the process is as easy and painless as possible. Plus once it is over,  not having to shave everyday is a BONUS, we promise!

• Hair needs to be at least 1/4 of an inch long. We strongly suggest no more or no less. Normally about a week and half since your last shave! This allows for the wax to adhere to the hair the best. If the hairs are too short, it means we can’t always successfully remove all the hair via the wax, and we then need to tweeze! Not the answer for a quick pain-free waxing experience, don't you think? ;0)
   

• The morning before your appointment, take a lukewarm shower. The heat will open up your pores, allowing the root of the hair to be removed easier. We also say, use a loofah in the area to help exfoliate and slough off any dead skin.
   

• Don't wear tight clothing after your wax appointment. Also we advise you to not apply perfumed creams after a wax. This can result in skin infection and can damage your hair follicles for an uncomfortable skin irritation. Ask us about our favorite aftercare product, Finipil.

  Oh and also, here is a little secret.. Keep your waxing appointment on a 4-6 week schedule, and it will make a world of a difference!

Please let us know if you have any other questions, or would like to book your Brazilian Wax appointment today!
