Brent Allan's Finest Body Treatments! |
 |
Body treatments are essentially a facial for your whole body. It is just as important to cleanse, exfoliate, and hydrate the skin on your body as it is the skin of your face.
The most popular body treatment is a salt glow or sea-salt scrub. This is an exfoliating treatment that takes place on a Vichy table. A Vichy shower has five to seven shower heads, which pour water onto you while you're lying on a cushioned wet table. It is usually part of a body treatment, like a salt scrub or body wrap. Instead of jumping up and getting in a shower to rinse off the salt or mud, you simply lie there. The cascade of water feels delicious!
During a Vichy shower you are usually draped with towels -- one between your legs and for women, one across your chest.However, You can wear disposable underwear. When you're on your back, the therapist might put something over your face to minimize the water spray in your face.
As you lay on your stomach, the massage therapist rubs a mixture of sea salt, oil, and aromatics into your skin. This exfoliates the skin and leaves it feeling velvety soft.
Once your whole body is scrubbed, which takes twenty to thirty minutes, your showered off on the Vichy shower table , leaving a nice coating of oil. It's an invigorating treatment, and it's a good idea to get your scrub before your massage if you're having both.
Variations can come from the essential oils or scrub materials: you might get an orange blossom/peppermint salt glow or a cucumber salt glow, or a body scrub done with pumice, coffee grounds, finely ground pecan shells or Napa Valley grape seeds.
A body mask and body wrap often takes place after a scrub. After the salt is rinsed off, you're taken to a dry treatment room and slathered with mud, algae, or seaweed and wrapped in a thermal foil blanket, it's a "detoxifying" treatment that stimulates your metabolic system, speeding its ability to carry away waste products. If the product is cream or lotion, it's a "hydrating" treatment.
A body wrap can also be a wrapping treatment used to treat cellulite. It sometimes has a diuretic effect that aids in temporary weight reduction.

 This Months Special
"FREE EYEBROW WAX"(With any hair styling service!)
Brent Allan would like to invite you to be waxed in luxury! Perfect Your Brows
Audrey Hepburn's pencil-thin arches, Elizabeth Taylor's natural but groomed brows, Marilyn Monroe's drawn-in look. All of these have one thing in common. They are eyebrows we clamour for on a daily basis. Eyebrow grooming has been a part of beauty for a very long time. Women have plucked, pulled, drawn and even shaved their eyebrows to achieve what is in fashion for the era.
In the 1950's, pencil thin and colored in was the rage. In the 60's full but very "done" was the look (but, who noticed eyebrows with those eyelashes they wore?). The 70's brought a more natural approach to fashion and the 80's gave us natural eyebrows with a fuller look. When the 90's dawned, fashion was taking a turn along with beauty. One look was not the only look that was "in". Hundreds of looks, styles and trends began to surface.
Today is very much the same. Eyebrows are groomed, thin, thick, full, natural, plucked, waxed and even drawn on with permanent make-up. Which leads us to the question, "How do I get the perfect brow?" First things first. Leave it to a professional. Many Aestheticians will pluck and wax until you get the arches you desire. Be particular about your brows and how you want them.
One other way to show your Aesthetician what you want is to color in the brows you would like with a brow pencil. When you go in, show her the colored area and let her make suggestions. She will have to take the make-up off but, she will have a good outline to work with.
There really isn't too much trouble to get the brows you want. Waxing takes just minutes once a month.
