Bathing Beauty

09/14/2007 by azspagirl

I don’t know about you but when I was wee one, bath time was almost as gratifying as slurping down a Baskin-Robbins double fudge ice cream cone. Engulfed in a sea of Mr. Bubbles and tub toys, I would shape my shampooed hair into long devil horns and splash around until my toes curdled into […]

Spa Spaces: How to Create a Spa Vibe at Home

09/01/2007 by azspagirl

I’ll never forget the first time I stepped foot into the Golden Door Spa at The Boulders Resort (now the Waldorf Astoria Spa). A Zen garden bubbled just outside the doors. The reception area was spacious, uncluttered and adorned in natural hues and textures. At every turn, the spa spoke of nature and harmony. I […]

Curse of the Bad Haircuts

08/23/2007 by azspagirl

It all started in kindergarten. My best friend, Sarah Macky, innocently asked me one day, “Can I cut your hair?” Me, being a people-pleaser at age 5, said, “Sure.” And thus began my life-long curse of bad haircuts. See, Sarah Macky had not quite mastered the art of using scissors yet and basically, she lopped […]

Summer Spaaah Series Returns

06/14/2007 by azspagirl

Let’s be honest, the summers in Phoenix metro and beyond can be unbearably hot. So hot that you could fry an egg and cheese omelet on the sidewalk. But here’s the good news: The blistering, three-digit temps also keep tourists to a minimum and give us locals free reign to fully enjoy the spoils of […]

Spa Tour California

05/12/2007 by azspagirl

Today marks the first heat advisory of the season. It’s gonna be a long, hot summer folks. And like most Valley dwellers, I’m already planning a summer jaunt westward. From the balmy beaches to the grape-covered hills of wine country, California hides a bevy of acclaimed resort spa destinations, each with distinctive styles and offerings […]

05/01/2007 by azspagirl

What does every mom want for Mother’s Day? According to our completely unscientific survey, nine out of 10 moms want a day at the spa. Here are just a few to consider: The Centre for Well-Being at the Phoenician, Scottsdale Expecting moms need love too! The Mother-to-Be day of relaxation package begins with a 50-minute […]

Handicapped Accessible Spas

04/15/2007 by azspagirl

A few weeks back, we got an email from a user requesting a list of handicapped accessible spas. Apparently, one of the Valley’s most beloved spas had some serious limitations and she was very disappointed in her experience. But we won’t point fingers and instead, we put together a list of spas in greater Phoenix […]

Mani Madness

03/15/2007 by azspagirl

Nothing beckons in spring like soft hands and pretty fingers. Here’s the quick rap on an easy home spa manicure. Before you start, gather all your tools, a few clean hand towels and something nourishing to sip while you work. 1. Clean and Shape Remove old lacquer with non-acetone polish remover. Clip only the tips […]

Go For Glow

03/12/2007 by azspagirl

Lackluster skin, feet the texture of 40-grit sandpaper, and elbows so scratchy they could cut glass all mean one thing: time for a springtime scrub-down. And lucky for us, spas do come in a jar. Prepare to go bare with these energizing, spa-inspired body scrubs. You’ll find one to please every taste and for every […]

Battle of the Bump

02/21/2007 by azspagirl

It never fails. Just before any big shindig, a pimple the size of Texas erupts somewhere front and center on my face. My standard pre-party checklist: a hot Betsey Johnson number, a trendy piece of jewelry, shoes to kill and a super-size tube of blemish cream. But there is help. Armed with a game plan […]

Love Thyself

02/04/2007 by azspagirl

You love yourself. You think you’re grand. You go to the movies and you hold your hand. You wrap your arms around your waste. And when you get fresh, you smack your face. That, my friends, is a twisted nursery rhyme that I picked up in my formative years and can still able cite from […]

Toxic Avengers: Detoxifying Spa Treatments

01/18/2007 by azspagirl

Straight from the SpaGirl handbook, “toxic” refers to any person, thing or situation that muddies one’s spiritual or physical growth. Toxins can manifest their spiteful little selves in everything from the air we breathe, the food we eat, to the buildings we live and work in. It’s no wonder that the superhero of chemical spills, […]
