Re: Facial

I think its just a regular facial and I am paying $50.00. Am I getting robbed?

Re: Facial

Oh no, I don't think so and I was just asking to see what kind you're getting... they have all sorts of dif ones.. and there are some that are alot more evasive than others.. I would tip about 15% or more figure about 8 bucks..but that all depends on how good she is..is your skin sensitive? it'll be ok.. your face will be soo smooth!!

Re: Facial

Since this is your first one, there is also a chance you may break out, so luckily you're going in enough time before your wedding. Don't ever get one like the day before, just in case. . . .
I've heard MANY horror stories

In Nassau county, you can go to the Estee Lauder Spa in Manhasset. That is where I went for my first facial last year. I loved it.

I'm planning on getting a facial at the Greenhouse Spa in Manhasset. I have a gift certificate and haven't used it yet.

Re: Facial

I am afraid to go before the wedding just in case I break out. Does everyone have that reaction after one?

Re: Facial

I get my facials at Hairsay, it is an Aveda Salon, and Nancy the woman who does the facial is just wonderful. The full facial is $65 but they have coupons on line that can save you up to 20%. I love to go there!Hairsay

Re: Facial

I agree with Kris - I LOVE the Estee Lauder spa!!!! I use this woman Aleja, she is unbelievable. After one of her facials I always get compliments on my skin. Good luck!

Re: Facial

My first facial was yesterday and there has been no reaction to any of the products. My skin felt softer yesterday and moisturized. It was very relaxing, I think I will go back next month.

Re: Facial

I went to a salon in Massapequa called Sophisticated Lady, Jacqueline from www.imakeyouup.com works out of the salon. I found her on this board. It was well worth the money spent!
