Fairhope Salon and Spa is nestled in the middle of downtown Fairhope. They had their Christmas open house Wednesday Nov. 30, 2011 and I had the pleasure of spending the afternoon there.The spa was beautifully decorated for the holiday season and everyone was full of holiday cheer.
The first part of my pampering was a wonderful Elemental Nature Complete Massage by Lani. She explained that AVEDA takes a unique approach to massage by using personalized aromatherapy. Then she laid out 7 cards each one representing a chakra. Then she asked me to choose the three that best fit me. Of the three I chose the Nourishment card as my signature scent. It was represented chakra 2 and the aroma was a mix of sandalwood, organic orange and geranium. It was energizing yet calming. Exactly what I needed to compliment the amazing massage. Lani definitely has "the gift". I felt wonderful when she was done!
Next it was time for my pedicure with my nail tech Melissa. She was absolutely fabulous and on of the sweetest people I have ever met. She did a beautiful job and we had the nicest conversation. Next she did a "gelish" manicure. It incorporates a shellac type polish set with a UV light. It's supposed to resist chipping for at last 2 weeks. I absolutely love it!
My entire visit to Fairhope Salon and Spa was fantastic. If you are looking for a gift for someone, a girls day out or just want to treat yourself I highly recommend any of the services they offer. They are located at 323 De La Mare Street so you can park, be pampered, then spend the rest of your afternoon having lunch or shopping at one of the many wonderful merchants close by. Give them a call 251-990-5015.
