Men! Look sharp and dapper with a regular grooming session from 8 Serenity Massage & Beauty!
When it comes to Men’s Grooming, you’re not just tackling ageing, there’s pollution and hygiene issues too. There are many reasons to get proactive about grooming and with regular upkeep, your face, skin, and body will thank you for it.
Nowadays, men from all walks of life are now choosing to get rid of their body hair. Instead of shaving, guys are choosing waxing for a longer-lasting, smoother skin solution. We provide a comprehensive waxing service for our male clients, from a simple eyebrow/monobrow wax, to a full body wax. We take great care to ensure your waxing treatments are as painless and comfortable as possible.
Men’s Facials include cleansing, exfoliation, steam, removal of blackheads and whiteheads, and a soothing face pack. With the rising levels of pollution, a simple wash and scrub in the shower just doesn’t cut it. We recommend booking in for a facial treatment at least every six weeks.
And don’t forget a Deep Tissue Massage. Muscles get tight and a Deep Tissue Massage helps to relieve stressed muscles. This is helpful with blood circulation as well. As one of the most neglected grooming services, it’s actually a necessity in today’s hyper-urban lifestyle.
At 8 Serenity Massage & Beauty, we offer the following Men’s Grooming treatments:
Men’s Waxing
Waxing lasts longer than shaving and you won’t get cuts or abrasions. Over time, your hair growth will become sparser and will grow more slowly. Waxing lightly exfoliates your skin. It’s a fast and efficient way to remove all the hair with little to no side effects.
On less sensitive areas like the shoulders, back, buttocks, arms, legs, feet, stomach, and chest (if not overly hairy), we use strip wax which sticks to the skin and the hair, but it’s a quick process of removing a lot of hair over larger areas of the body. For more sensitive and intimate areas, we use hot wax which generally sticks to the hair only and causes less pain, though it takes a little longer.
We recommend you rebook your regular waxing appointment every 3-4 weeks when the hair is long enough to be waxed again. Some of our clients like to have their waxing done on visible areas every 2-3 weeks depending on the season and what they choose to wear.
We have many different combined waxing services available, or you may wish to incorporate some of our other services together with your wax, which you can view on our Packages page.
Before each appointment, we also recommend following our “Preparing Your Skin for Waxing” advice.
Men’s Facials
Put your best face forward!
We are all enjoy taking pride in ourselves and our appearance, and therefore taking control of our skin care as well.
Making the decision to take control on your skin care regime now, will save your appearance later in life. Think of it as a monthly maintenance program.
Facials are relaxing and really nourishing for your skin! Giving your face a professional deep cleanse helps to remove all the built-up oils, dirt and dead skin cells that get left behind on your skin after your shower. We will use a specific facial program suited to you and your skin type. They all consist of a cleanse, skin analysis, exfoliation, steam, extractions, massage, mask, toner and a moisturiser are applied leaving your skin well-nourished after your treatment.
Clearly, not all skin is created equal. But besides ethnicity and age, our skin is characterised by its skin type. Your skin type is determined by several factors, including genetics, age, and environment. Your skin type influences things such as water retention, sebum production, sensitivity, and your tendency towards certain skin conditions, such as acne.
Skin is often classified into 4 main types:
- Normal Skin
- Dry Skin
- Oily Skin
- Combination skin
Knowing your skin type is important when it comes to choosing the best skin care treatments, products and customising your personal skin care routine to promote optimal skin health, delay the signs of ageing, and emphasise your best features and natural beauty.
Before each appointment, we also recommend following our “Before and After Care for Facials” advice.
