Recently, I had the privilege of experiencing the intimate offerings of the Tocaloma Spa & Salon at the Pointe Hilton at Tapatio Cliffs. As you might know, the Pointe Hilton resorts are equipped with water slides and lazy river pools and are known for being great destinations for families with children, but don’t let that […]
Phoenix
Massage Envy Spa Tempe Marketplace
Need a good skin cleanup without breaking the bank? Read our review of the new Murad Healthy Skin Facials available nationwide at Massage Envy Spas. I was a late bloomer when it comes to facials, in fact, in the past I had been known to actively avoid skincare treatments. Just ask my friend who so […]

Drybar’s new Phoenix location, near the Biltmore is a chic and cozy place to get your tresses styled to perfection.

Space Massage
Arcadia’s hidden space for therapy that fuses traditional and Thai massage. Meticulously perfect. That is my best description of Space in Phoenix. As I parked on the street in front of Space Massage Studio, directly adjacent to massage therapist John Hill’s home, I immediately got a sense of familiarity. After all, two of my favorite […]
Mane Attraction Salon
Our Spa-Girl-in-the-field Olga surrendered her ponytail to the competent hands of Mane Attraction salon’s star cutter. Here’s her tale!

Salvador Calvano Hair
Oh God. I've become a Scottsdale snob. Not that anything's wrong with that, but when I parked my car outside of Salvador Calvano's Phoenix hair studio, I couldn't help thinking: Hope my car's still here when I get back. Touted as the stylist to the stars — his work has graced the covers of Glamour, […]
