Hey, Guys! Spas Aren’t Just for the Ladies—Man Up at These Locales

Spring is known as a time of rebirth, renewal and rejuvenation. So how about luxuriating at a local day spa?  Relaxing massages, beauty treatments and other pampering possibilities await you, and news flash: Spas aren’t just for the ladies. Many of the following venues offer packages tailored to men.

• Marie Monet European Skin Care & Medical Spa

Did European gentlemen in days of yore get facials, pedicures, lash tints or brow waxes?  Probably not, but Marie Monet European Skin Care & Medical Spa invites men to treat themselves with their “Gentlemen’s Package” anyhow.  Bridal packages and “Mommy Getaway” treatments are also available.

• Revive Day Spa & Salon

In addition to bridal and couples day spa retreats, Revive Day Spa & Salon offers Princess Parties for girls age 3-12, transforming them into little Cinderellas with hair styling, makeup, nails, massage and—of course—a tiara (sparkly ball gowns, pumpkin carriages and Prince Charmings not included).

• Salon de Solage

Luxury and royalty go hand in hand, so it’s fitting that Salon de Solage offers “Queen for a Day” and “Princess” packages, as well as “Girls Night Out” treatments and even a “Sports Package” for the fellas, which has nothing to do with sports but everything to do with making spa treatments somehow sound macho.

• Skincare Unlimited

While Skincare Unlimited offers alluring spa package titles like “The Ultimate Escape,” “Tension Tamer” and “The Royal Treatment,” they had us at “Chocolate Indulgence,” a three-hour treatment featuring cocoa exfoliations, a raspberry chocolate shower, seven-step European Absolute Chocolate Facial, a chocolate-scented massage and more.

• Stardust Rejuvenating Spa

While Stardust Rejuvenating Spa offers a wide range of traditional spa treatments (facials, massage, body wraps, hair styling), they specialize in “Sugaring Hair Removal,” an all-natural antibiotic sugar paste that promises gentle and less painful hair removal—take that evil wax!
