As I was walking back to my car after a pedicure and microcurrent facial at Head Games, I was thinking that the world would be a much better place if everyone went in for a little more pampering. I had such a happy feeling after my time with Vanessa at Head Games. I tried the microcurrent facial for the first time and it is incredible!!! It was such a relaxing time. I highly recommend trying it! The next day, my co-workers mentioned how good my skin looked. It gave my skin a glow. After the facial, it was more warm towels and oils, but this time for my feet. I can't remember the last time my feet felt so soft and smooth. The staff was extremely nice. Vanessa is the best! Make an appointment at Head Games and the world will feel like a perfect place!
Pros: Perfect pedicures, incredible microcurrent facials
Cons: None

OK, so it was just a brow wax, HOWEVER I was treated as if my eyebrows were made of gold. Normally, in the past, i went to places were the wax was slapped on and off and out the door I went, this experience was nothing like that.
The women was so kind and told me all about different shaping options. She used an assortment of products that helped make the whole experience over the top WONDERFUL!
Pros: High quality treatment/service

I have always had excellent experiencse dealing with Minott's. I have had them deliver flowers about four times in the last year, and each time the recipient has been pleased and the order has been delivered in a timely fashion. Plus, their customer service is great. I have had other florists laugh at my requests, usually to have an arrangement for around $40, but not Minott's. They will work with my (limited) budget and make it look fantastic. At this point, they're my go-to florist in Portland. Thanks!

Very nice, upscale hair salon and spa off Fore St in Portland's Old Port area, and the higher prices reflect that. It's a slight challenge to park - if you cannot find a space along the street, you'll need to park in a parking lot a few blocks away. Akari's interior is gorgeous but the layout is slightly odd, but this is the Old Port, and the building came first; they did a lovely job making it their own. I highly recommend the pedicure, it's wonderful.

Girls day out my friend and I went to the Portland Regency Spa.
I only get out to relax once a month and so worth the penny more important my time..
I got a wrap and surpised that I LOVED it. My skin was smooth and I felt calm, good thing they walk you back. My friend got a deep Tissue massage and she was jello. The therapists were Heather and Angela. These Girls Know Their Jobs!! This is what I'm requesting for Mother's Day,Annerversary,Ground Hog Day...

I had a full-day package. From the time I walked through the door, I felt a warm welcome. These bone-chilling Maine winters can take a toll. If you are thinking of treating yourself this place makes you feel FABULOUS!
From the warmed massage table with Devin's magic fingers working away the tension built-up in my neck and shoulders (and the rest of me), onto Ana's amazing facial on another warm massage table, I just felt the tension melting from me. My skin never looked better or felt softer.
Kristin brought my hairstyle to current, all the while explaining my face shape and hair texture and what would work specifically for me. Then I was whisked away to a mani/pedi also with warming paraffin treatments for hands and feet (making skin so soft).
The women who work here are happy, amazing, talented and warm. Unlike many spas with the stick-figure mannequins who service you, this is a real place. You feel at home here with the services they provide and outstanding customer service at every step of the way.
Every person who works here seems to genuinely love their work and their talent is obvious. I tip my hat to the owners who clearly know what they are doing and have a wonderful business.
If you are thinking of a new hairstyle or just need "a break", I would recommend it highly. I am glowing and feel relaxed and wonderful. I'm looking forward to when I can go back again....
Pros: Customer service is #1, talent, warm massage tables, feel amazing when finished.
Cons: parking for more than 2 hours is 2 blocks away, but they provide stamps

This day spa is fabulous. They do not do hair, so their focus is all on relaxation- massages, facials, etc. The atmosphere is so tranquil and the staff is truly wonderful.

Ambrosia is amazingly beautiful inside and out. I enjoyed the company of the friendly staff and luxury of relaxing ocean side while getting pampered. I especially enjoyed the ability of their staff to get the look I wanted from color to cut. This is the best hair color I have ever had. I would recommend Ambrosia to anyone looking for a salon where the outcome exceeds expectation.
Pros: Friendly Staff, Beautiful Atmosphere

The USM Lifeline Center is a decent size. They have a variety of weights and cardio equipment. They also have indoor basketball and racquetball courts. The gym does get a bit busy with the local high school and college kids around early evening. Prices are lower than average which makes it appealing. However due to the large crowds I do not work out here anymore.
