Where are some good day spas that offer facials?

I'm going back to school soon and i would like to start the year with a glowy face, the type of glowy u get after a facial. ive never had a facial before and im not sure where to start looking. i live in the baltimore area, columbia would also work and was wondering if anyone knew of a great day spa. i have limited funds however, and if u could tell me the name of a spa that would be great (even better would be the website to the spa though!)Where are some good day spas that offer facials?

Hotel Zaza has a very nice spa, it's unlike the typical spa experience in Dallas.
Nieman Marcus does this.

Teen facials done at the spa?

i have a little bit of acne that i just cant seem to get rid of and school is starting in a couple weeks and really want my face clear so i am going to a spa to get a facial done..most likely a teen facial..and i was just wondering if i get a teen facials every other week or every week will this get my face clear and keep it that way??Teen facials done at the spa?
dunnoTeen facials done at the spa?
no, not really, they won't open pours, trust me i've tried it just makes ur skin kinda soft but u still will have the acne, i would say go out to a cvs or rite ade, or just a super market and get Clearasil ultra or st.johns Apricot scrub, trust me,because i've had acne problems for years!
I got a teen facial once; It was really nice and relaxing. It did not get rid of my acne immediately. It just opened up my pores and things. I would not suggest getting them like every week... it gets expensive and it not a long term treatment to acne!





Go to a drug store and get Neutrogena oil-free acne wash; it really helps. if this does not clear it up, try seeing a dermatologist.





I would definitely get a facial but not as often as you said!
Hey if they use a face mask they only bring out spots because they open pores so you'd probably get more spots. you need to find a face scrub =) should work better =)
Well i reccomend findding a site where you can do it at home and save money.





we are in a finacial crisis do you really want to pay crazy prices and have the risk of not geting clear skin?

What's a good spa in southern cali to get facials?

somewhere in oxnard, ventura, SB, goleta?What's a good spa in southern cali to get facials?
In Simi Valley you can go to Bella Amore and ask for Carolyn Moreno. She is SO amazing!!!! She is so relazing you will feel like you are on another planet for an hour. Best of all.... your skin will feel great for weeks.





The phone number for the spa is 582-0440What's a good spa in southern cali to get facials?
Look in the phone books under spa's or beauty salons. Beauty Schools also sometimes have an Esthetician dept. If they have an ';esthetician'; dept you'll get a great facial if you get a ';European Facial';. It can take an hour to 11/2 hrs. but you get the works exfoliated, steamed, mask, massage etc.

Advertising/Marketing/Promotio鈥?Ideas for a Day Spa with Massages Facials & Waxings?

I'm a 'spa coordinator'; at a amazing Day Spa in Orange County CA, but besides my receptionist duties, I'm also helping out (as much as I can) with any promotional ideas, marketing, %26amp; a little advertising.





We already do a lot of different things but I'd love to hear what specific techniques, or ideas would make you or anyone come back to a spa.





What are you looking for? What would be the cherry on top that really made the sunday (so to speak lol)





Here's what we have already...


- a website inessencedayspa.com


- we send out flyers with promotional prices


- we send monthly emails with different deals


- we have 30min free GC we give away to clients, businesses, and homes


- ';new guest specials'; (discounted services for 1st-timers)


- a rewards cards where you refer people, write a review online, sign up for the membership, etc %26amp; recieve a certain number of pts for each thing %26amp; ultimately get a free hour massage or facial


- last but not least we have above average customer appreciation and service. we always put our clients first (which is the most important in my oppinion)





....but somehow we're still not reaching our goals





I'd love some ideas of more specific things; maybe what someone you go to does to make you want to return! Or a spa that did something different %26amp; suprising in a good way...Advertising/Marketing/Promotio鈥?Ideas for a Day Spa with Massages Facials %26amp; Waxings?
i feel your pain! lol i run my own massage business from a gym and sometimes feel the crunch of a slow day. here are a few things i do to drum up business:





when it's slow, ask the techs (if you force them to do it, they just won't provide a good service) if anyone is interested in giving mini services for free to promote themselves. like nail techs can do hand massages, estheticians can do paraffin dips, massage therapists can do chair massages, stylists can do a blow out. make sure the tech has business cards with their names so they can give it to the client and say, ';if you enjoyed that service, please come back and see me and i'll give you 10% off your first service with me';. you'll be surprised. i do free chair massages once a week for 2 hours and get a lot of new business this way.





another idea is to create a ';last minute appt'; e-mail list. i have people on a list and whenever i have a cancellation or any openings in my day, i send them an e-mail first thing in the morning and let them know that i have the following openings and if they book a slot i'll give them 20% off. that works wonders!





finally, try doing an open house on the spas closed day. invite your regulars and have them bring a friend or 2. offer light ppetizers and refreshments. have the staff perform the mini services and talk to the potential clients. finally raffle off a GC (whatever amount you want), one for existing clients and one for the potential clients.





hope these tips help and good luck!!!Advertising/Marketing/Promotio鈥?Ideas for a Day Spa with Massages Facials %26amp; Waxings?
Promotional advertising campaigns, similar to what Spa Snob mentioned (giving away mini services) works well if you don't want to pay an advertising fee. We have helped many day spas by creating similar campaigns. If you do good work, you'll keep these customers forever! Visit nimarketing.com Report Abuse

It seems that you have been put a lot of effort into this strategy. You might want to bring or consult with a company that can help you take it to the next level.

  • I was hired at a spa to do facials full time?

    i took the job and quit another cause this was closer to home( the other was 45 miles one way). After 2 weeks the owners cousin who ran it cut our hours( also our tips were being stolen) and started giving everything to one girl there( I found out this girl who was doing facials, massages, and manicures) was only licensed to do facials. Due to my cut of hours I filed for unemployment and am collecting it. The owner got rid of his cousin and the girl and finally put on 3 staff members to run the spa who he just lost now causehe brought BACK the girl and his cousin.. I forgot to mention this girl also shoved me and called me names in front of a client one day. My question is- is this some sort of labor law suit or do I just wipe my feet and get on with life... (I currently have 2 other jobs lined up.)I was hired at a spa to do facials full time?
    You might have a case.If you have a contract.Honestly if it was me I would just report them,and move on.Goodluck!I was hired at a spa to do facials full time?
    By shoving you, you can successfully file assault charges against this girl. Any form of unwanted physical contact is assault and can be countered with legal action.





    By calling you names in front of a client, that constitutes verbal harassment. That also can be countered with a lawsuit.





    Also, by giving this one girl who was only licensed to do facials all the work, that goes against company policies and should be immediately brought to the attention of a corporate office, or the Better Business Bureau.





    Remember, when something like this happens, it should always be dealt with. Physical and verbal abuse is grounds for harassment and the business place has a zero tolerance policy, each and every time. What you need to do if you feel like reporting this is find witnesses or proof of the events taking place, and press charges.
    If you had a contract and they violated it there might be a case. Or if they let go all the women and hired all men. But it doesn't sound like anything like this happened. You were treated badly, but it's not illegal, just rude. For the most part people are allowed to hire and fire who they want.

    Facials at a Spa?

    I am going to buy my Mom a facial for Xmas at a spa. Can anyone tell me which one to buy or does anyone have any insight? THANKSFacials at a Spa?
    She will enjoy any facial at a spa.





    I would just get her a gift certificate for the amount of a deep cleansing facial. She can use it to have a different kind if she wants.





    What a nice gift. I love going to spas.Facials at a Spa?
    If they are all the same price, just get a gift certificate and let her choose. If they are different, get a basic one and if she needs to add on other components she can pay the difference.





    Unless you can find out her skin type.
    Phone Spa salon and ask if they offer any SPA package, when and what treatments included. Get a gift certificate and book her appointment not on the busiest season to make sure she would get extra time to ask questions at her first visit.
    You should just purchase a gift certificate for a specific amount and then let her decide what she would like done. If you buy her a certain type she may not actually need that particular thing done, or may not want to do it. So def. get her an amount only and let her decide!
    It really depends on what the spa offers, if I were you I'd ask the spa what they would recommend.. Usually they have a 'house special' type thing, and they can explain what they have to offer in detail.
