First spa visit? You're going to be fine. Here's exactly what to wear, what to bring, what to expect, and how to communicate your preferences so you actually leave feeling like royalty.
Before your appointment
- Drink water that morning. Hydration helps every treatment, especially massage and facials.
- Skip caffeine within an hour of a massage if you can; it makes muscles tighter.
- Eat a light meal an hour or two before. Don't arrive hungry, don't arrive full.
- Skip heavy makeup if you're booked for a facial; saves time at the start.
What to wear
Something easy to take off and put back on. For a massage, you'll undress to your comfort level, fully or down to underwear, your choice. You will be draped throughout, and only the area being worked is uncovered. For a facial, expect to take your top off (we'll provide a wrap) so we can work neck and décolleté.
What to bring
Honestly, just yourself. Phone on silent. We'll provide robes, slippers, water, and post-treatment touch-ups (mineral sunscreen if you want it after a facial).
When you arrive
Aim for 5-10 minutes early. We're at 322 W Twohig Ave in downtown San Angelo, with a parking lot directly in front of our building. Arriving 15 minutes after your scheduled time may be considered a no-show, so leave yourself a buffer.
We do a brief intake. Pressure preference, focus areas, medications, anything you want us to know. This is also the moment to ask anything that's on your mind. There are no dumb spa questions.
During the service
Tell us if you're too cold, too warm, want more pressure, want less, want quiet, want music. Your therapist genuinely wants to know. “treat every client like royalty” means we'd rather adjust five times than have you tolerate something you don't love.
After
Drink more water. Avoid heavy workouts, hot tubs, alcohol or sun for a few hours after a facial or wax. Book your next appointment while you're still glowing; slots fill up.
Booking + cancellation
Reserve online; new clients should select NEW CLIENT CONSULT first. Card on file is required at booking but not charged until after the service. 24-hour notice is requested for changes. See the full cancellation policy.
