1. MANicure – Don’t neglect those cuticles gentlemen. Well-groomed hands are an absolute must, whether at a business meeting or a date.

2. Back Wax – Just because you can’t see it, doesn’t mean it’s not there, get that rid of that fluff before you head to the badi, lake or beach.!

3. Facial – Once our clients have had one of Andrei’s facials, they always book more! You have to experience it for yourself.

4. Personal Training – Summer is already upon us and we’ve been overindulging during lockdown. Book a personal training session to get back on track and work on that six pack you have always wanted. No excuses!

5. Pedicure – No one likes looking at neglected feet. NO ONE. So please book one of our pedicures before you take out your flip-flops.

Enjoy those beautiful summer days!

The borders are gradually opening again and you are finally allowed to start planning your summer holiday. You don’t have time to go to the salon with all the things you need to get done before going away? No need to worry,  WE COME TO YOU! Go to our website or app, simply put in your postcode, choose the date and provider you want and next thing you know they’ll be at your door ready to pamper you. This saves you the time you probably need for finishing all emails and packing your suitcase before you are finally ready to head to the airport. 

We asked our clients what their beauty routine is before getting on the plane. These are their top 5: 

1. Pedicure – number 1 on our clients’ holiday check list. Baby soft feet and perfectly painted toenails are a must! And guys, also your toenails have to look great in flipflops.

2. Manicure – goes hand in hand with your pre-holiday pedicure, matchy matchy or mix things up with ombre fingernails and neon toenails, you decide!

3. Wax – essential pre-holiday prep! Need we say more?! One of our specials is a back wax for men. And believe us, it doesn’t hurt as much as getting rejected by your summer crush because of a hairy back.

4. Facial – prepare your skin for you holiday, perfectly exfoliated skin is a must for all those make up free days on the beach. 

5. Hair Cut – a fresh cut is essential before the onslaught of salt and sand. 

And the best part? You don’t even have to leave the house and spend hours going to a salon. Have a look at our website or drop us an email if you have a question.

Geh einfach auf unsere Website oder App, gib deine Postleitzahl ein, wähle das gewünschte Datum und den Anbieter, und schon bald klingelt es an der Türe und du wirst verwöhnt. Das erspart dir wertvolle Zeit, die du wahrscheinlich gut brauchen kannst, um beispielsweise die letzten E-Mails zu beantworten und deine Koffer zu packen, bevor es endlich losgeht.

Wir haben unsere Kunden und Kundinnen gefragt, was ihre Beauty-Routine ist, bevor sie ins Flugzeug steigen. Das sind ihre Top 5: 

1. Pediküre – Nummer 1 auf der Urlaubscheckliste unserer Kund*innen. Weiche Füsse und perfekt lackierte Fussnägel sind ein Muss für alle Frauen! Und Männer, auch eure Zehennägel müssen in Flipflops gepflegt aussehen.

2. Maniküre – geht Hand in Hand mit der Pediküre vor dem Urlaub, ihr entscheidet, ob ihr die gleiche Nagellackfarbe oder eine coole Farbkombination möchtet. 

3. Waxing – unverzichtbar für die Urlaubsvorbereitung! Müssen wir noch mehr sagen?! Eines unserer Specials ist übrigens ein Rückenwaxing für Männer. Und Jungs glaubt uns, es tut nicht so sehr weh, wie ein Korb eures Sommerflirts wegen eines zu behaarten Rückens.

4. Gesichtsbehandlung – bereitet eure Haut auf den Urlaub vor! Ein Peeling ist perfekt, um die Make-up freie Zeit am Strand so richtig geniessen zu können. 

5. Haarschnitt – was gibt es besseres als einen frischen Haarschnitt, um eure Haare auf den Ansturm von Meersalz und Sand vorzubereiten? 

Und das Beste daran? Du musst nicht einmal das Haus verlassen und Stunden in einem Beauty-Salon verbringen. Geh einfach auf unsere Website oder schreib uns eine E-Mail, wenn du Fragen hast. Ach übrigens, wir bieten auch Personal Training an, wenn du deiner Bikini-Figur noch den letzten Schliff geben möchtest.

NAIL ART

By | Beauty | No Comments

Nail art is no passing phase, here are some dos and don’t for you to consider.

Do try nail art, even if it’s only with an accent nail. There’s a look for even the most conservative workplaces.
Don’t relegate nail art to the pinkie only; try the ring finger or pointer for something different.

Do keep a bottle of cuticle oil at your desk, in your purse, or by your bed for regular application. Cuticle oil will keep your nails strong and your cuticles moisturised to reduce the chance of hangnails, cracked skin, and dry fingernails.
Don’t leave your nail polish on for longer than three weeks. It can dry out your nails.

Do combine various types of nail art in one design. Using polish, decals, and 3D elements like stones together will add dimension to your nail art.
Don’t feel that every nail has to the look the same. Creating variations in colour and design on each nail provides visual interest and keeps the nails from looking too matchy matchy.

Our top 3 choices for nail art for you.

  1. Ombre nails. We LOVE this, especially for summer. Megumi is a really specialist when it comes to the art of ombre.

2. French Manicure, while you may think of the traditional French manicure as being a little outdated, it can be applied using a modern approach to the classic. You can choose so many different options, colored French tips, half moon or both!

3. Hand painted nails, pamper your nails by adorning them in stunning hand painted designs such as these gorgeous daisies by Megumi.
