So?my fiance basically FORCED me into getting a facial. (she posted before me earlier.)
Massages, yes - I enjoy them, and especially enjoy them by the massage therapist at the Serene Spa named Susan O.N., wouldn't go to anyone else. Her deep tissue massage is impressive for a woman, identical strength to a man?s and she has a distinctive way she does a massage like none other?
....But facials?...hmmmm. My fiance insisted I go to the facial girl there whom she sees regularly, she and her friends highly referred her to me (probably to help team up with my fiance...I had no choice lol.) Though, I did feel at ease when I heard she was not only a licensed skincare pro, but also has a some sort of degree in advanced medical skincare. That made it seem more "manlier" and accepting for me to get a facial....you know, I didn't want any pink girlish scented masks and cucumbers over my eyes.
Well, I hate to admit she was right.... (Aren?t they always?) Cara Zebrick (the skin expert) did a specialized facial designed for a man?s skin...but also made choices throughout the facial to make it more tailored for my skin. My treatment was about 90 min long, she was very gentle with popping my pimples, professional, and knowledgeable on what she was doing. The face massage was outstanding?she and Susan should team up= body massage with facial massage at the same time, if the finance okayed it?(just kidding honey!)
Overall, I always loved the massage therapy and now I love facials. I didn?t realize how bad shape my skin was in until I received the facial. It was just as relaxing as it was effective.
Any man hesitant about facials, give it a shot at Serene Scene, ask for Cara. It?s very secluded, they don?t allow more then 2-3 clients in at a time for privacy and genuine full-on attention. You don?t have to tell your buddies.
Now, my finace is trying to convince me to get a chest & back wax...let's not stretch it, eh?
