A spa or salon should offer a range of therapies so that a single visit can leave you looking beautiful. The modern woman does not have to do as much physical labor, but there are new stresses that can cause damage to your appearance. Facial muscles and skin are delicate and therefore often the first place signs of stress show. As the human population grows, competitive stresses build, and so does the drive to stand out. A good Denver beauty salon can offer facials and other treatments that leave skin looking rejuvenated.

A facial works in a two step process. First, the skin is exfoliated. As the dead skin is removed, the Denver hair stylist also points out that dirt falls off an pores are opened up too. The next step is to rebuild the skin with moisture and elastic inducing compounds. Moisturizers keep the skin healthy while anti aging creams work to maintain a taught appearance.

A Denver hair salon also will offer a variety of looks and hair treatments. Over time these hair treatments can be damaging, but so is sun light. The best counter to split ends is a simple hair cut. At the hair salon, the stylist will wash the hair and infuse it with nourishing proteins. As stylists are professionals, they have experience with all kinds of hair styles and treatments. They will be happy to offer you some advice on new looks.

Of course a trip to the salon is not complete without a manicure and pedicure. Manicures are not only for the health of your nails, but they also make your hands soft and defined. Your cuticles will be removed and can ask for a particular shape for the nails. The pedicure involves relaxing the feet to scrub and massage away all the wear they get.

Waxing and other hair removal products are gaining popularity in the Denver spa scene. The new standard of beauty for females is for them to be hairless except on the head. While this may seem unrealistic, it is actually an easy procedure to wax any part of the body.

Once your body is looking beautiful, finish off your day at the spa with a massage to make you feel good inside and out. Many salons offer unique massages that deliver a variety of relaxing sensations.

Hair salons and spas can be a great place to relax if you find a good one. I worked in a Denver hair salon where the people were just excellent. I also write a Denver spa blog where I review the most relaxing places and pampering treatments.

Ambiance is pampering for the soul and a large reason why men and women visit spas in the first place. It takes the same amount of time to get a mani/pedi at home as it does at the spa, actually less time if you count driving, looking for a parking space and walking to and from the spa. You can quickly and easily create a spa ambiance in your home by lighting one or more candles and popping in a little Enya or Classical music. It transforms your state of mind from “I have to do my nails” to “I’m so looking forward to my manicure!” To really maximize relaxation, the more of your 5 senses involved in your at home spa experience, the better. Sip on your favorite hot tea from a beautiful china tea cup found at an antiques shop or, enjoy your favorite glass of vino from an unusual piece of stemware. Keep your drinking vessels tucked away and use them only during your spa time. Purchase extras for when you invite girlfriends to enjoy spa day with you. We love the scents, look and healthiness of handmade candles Made by Elizabeth.

The Perfect Manicure

1. Remove nail polish. Use a remover with an acetone in it because it gets the job done quickly and easily. We love removers that have extra conditioners or herbals in them. They remove your polish and nourish your nail all in one step.

2. Soak finger tips in lemon water. Squeeze 1/2 slice of lemon into a small bowl filled with warm water and soak your finger tips. This helps to remove yellowing from polish.

3. Remove dead skin and cuticles. We recommend, Nu Skin’s Body Lufra. Your hands will feel as soft as the day you were born! Rub the Lufra into your hands, paying extra attention to your cuticles. If you do this regularly, you won’t need a cuticle stick and you won’t get pesty, painful hang nails.

4. Remove any stubborn calluses on palms and fingers. Using the Top Notch large pumice file, gently rub in a circular motion over stubborn writing calluses or roughened palms. Rinse your hands and pumice file.

5. File your nails. Crystal files are best because they gently glide across the nail, sealing it as it files. No tearing, no need to file the sides of your nails and no buffing required! We recommend Top Notch crystal nail files.

6. Apply a base coat. We use and recommend LA Girls Calcium. These folks just got it right when they created a base coat! We discovered this product at a beauty supply store in CA. After failed attempts at repairing nails which were covered up by artificial tips for years, we found this formula got our nails in top notch shape! So we called the company and asked if we could share it with our customers and they happily agreed. We promise, you’ll love, love, love this product!

7. Optional step. If you are repairing your nails and nurturing them back to being strong and healthy, skip to step 8. Reapply Calcium to your nails again tomorrow (it dries quickly), then reapply a third time. Wait about 5 days, remove your Calcium and start the application process again. After a few weeks and coupled with using your Top Notch crystal nail file, you will start to see a real difference in your nails. For greater strength take the vitamin supplement Image HNS. Taken regularly, you’ll see and feel a noticeable different in your hair, nails and your skin in just a few weeks.

8. Apply polish in your color palette and finish with a top coat. Selecting the right color of polish will really complete your overall look. Your nails, like a piece of jewelry are an accessory to compliment your overall look. Just as certain colors make us look washed out or pale, the color of nail polish has the same effect. To find out what your colors are, check out Jill Kirsch Color to see what is the best color palette for you. I was amazed to find out what color category I was in! I had it all wrong and now that I’ve got it right, it’s totally amazing!

9. Finish off with Perennial Body Lotion. This lotion goes on smooth, has a clean, fresh scent and absorbs quickly into your skin, leaving your skin feel incredibly soft, smooth and very sexy.
