Hair’s Worst Enemy

Filed under: Uncategorized - 02 Dec 2009

Dun Dun Duh…I know it sounds so dramatic but it can be horrible to finally look at yourself in good lighting and realize your about as fuzzy as a peach with crazy mutant hairs popping up where you least expect it. If you have been thinking about trying out some much needed defuzzing but your scared of what to expect then let me ease your mind. Here is the 411 on waxing so you can stop living with a moustache hot stuff!

1. All of our waxicians have at least 5 years waxing experience. We are pro’s!

2. We use a high quality wax that is formulated for the most sensitive of skin types which means you don’t have to hide out in your house for days waiting for your skin to recover.

3. Waxing removes hair from the root so you can live fuzz free for approximatly 3-6 weeks.

4.Waxing cause hair to grow back in finer and less of it over time.

We love to talk about hair removal so if you have any questions please contact us and one of our pro’s can further ease your mind.

Got Makeup?

Filed under: Uncategorized - 30 Apr 2009

SheSheMakeupBozoIs your makeup regime making you feel a little heavy? Do you have days where you look in the mirror and expect the late Tammy Faye Baker to stare back at you? With so many foundations, shimmers, powders and primers out there it is so easy to get carried away and end up with pounds of makeup in your bag. My name is Susan and I am a product addict. I’m also 31 years old and in an effort to conceal all my spots, marks, bumps and wrinkles I’ve found myself applying more layers than an onion. It’s time to simplify!

We are so excited to announce that we are one of Fort Collins premier salons to be carrying Jane Iredale Mineral Cosmetics. Jane came from Broadway and wanted a makeup that would have great coverage but would be healthy for the skin also. Its 15 years later and Jane Iredale is leading the beauty industry. They have been featured in Elle, Self, Allure and InStyle magazine. There are so many great things about Jane Iredale but my favorite is I can now start to simplify my regime. I’m a busy girl …

SheShe_BundleOfJoyJust a couple weeks ago we celebrated a baby shower for our own She She beauty Bree. It was a celebration of this lovely lady and her new family to come. We have all followed along and watched Bree’s bump get bigger and bigger and let me say she was one enjoyable pregnant woman. Little Maxton was born today at 6lbs 4oz and 19 1/2 inches long. We look forward to meeting the little man!

Wax On. Wax Off.

Filed under: Uncategorized - 29 Mar 2009

SheShe_karatekidWax the old chasse. Tame the unibrow. Smooth the beaver. Say no to bush. We have all heard our fair share of funny sayings and slogans when it comes to hair removal. Hollywood has even started to showcase waxing. Samantha’s look of horror when she spotted Miranda’s untamed bikini line while our fave girls lounged poolside in the Sex and the City movie. Or the infamous waxing scene in 40 Year Old Virgin. As funny as we like to make hair removal out to be, it’s important to remember it’s a service that should be approached by a professional that takes it seriously.
I’ve had grown men come in for waxing services clammy and white as a ghost because they saw 40 Year Old Virgin and think that’s what they signed up for. FYI, the lady doing that chest wax was there strictly for comical relief. She did not follow the normal waxing protocol. Or women in passing saying they would never get waxed again because their first experience was so horrific. I’ve even had waxing nightmares from other “professionals” in the industry. My fave was the overpriced Brazilian I booked in …

We love to par-tay at She She! Today we had the pleasure of hosting a lovley group of 22 ladies for a “13 Going on 30″ birthday party. These girls did it right. Popcorn bar complete with assorted toppings, wine, cupcakes, and party favors galore. Oh and they all resurrected clothes from their teen years and dressed like they were 13. The party commenced as we watched Jennifer Garner in “13 Going on 30″. Shucks, we are flattered you choose to spend your special day with us.[gallery]

Summer Glow

Filed under: Uncategorized - 26 Feb 2009

SheShe_tanningYou might be planning your tropical getaway for spring break or just itching to break out the hot new mini skirt you have hiding in your closet. It can be a little daunting to think about strutting your pasty white stuff on the beaches when you’ve spent the winter all covered up. Like bears coming out of hibernation we all swarm the tanning salons to bake and bronze ourselves to perfection. Fact is the trade off of having tan skin might not be worth it.

I grew up on the beaches of Cocoa Beach, Florida. I am naturally glow in the dark white. That bottle of “Tropical Goodness” promised that fair ole me would look like I was from the islands. Instead I burned myself to a crisp and waddled for a few days. I came out of the gates too quick. And it took me years to learn that if I cooked myself up a little slower I could eventually get a “tan”. The fact is at the age of 31 all that baking is starting to show up on my skin.

I’m not talking about the 10-15 minutes a day of …

Indulge

Filed under: Uncategorized - 02 Feb 2009

SheShe_girlsmassageIt’s just one of those things that you daydream about. Indulging in an hour of “you” time. No kids screaming your name, no job duties to be fulfilled, no significant other wanting to know where din din is. You and some much deserved time on the massage table getting all the daily stresses worked out of your muscles. But with so many types of massage and therapists to choose from how do you know what is best for you.
Most people have a notion that spas only give the allusive “fluff and buff massage” or in other terms a lotion application. I’ve had these massages where you feel like your untrained significant other could do a better job massaging your shoulders using his left hand. I received a massage once from a woman that had no clue what she was doing. I left feeling more tense than when she started. This lady was offering a massage that was cheaper than anyone else in town. I learned that you get what you pay for.
Massage can be an amazing healing treatment when performed by an educated therapist with a passion for it. With the …

Snow Bunnies

Filed under: Uncategorized - 15 Jan 2009

All of the lovely She She ladies just recently took a trip to Breckenridge for our Snow Bunny Retreat, a little post holiday bonding time. Snowboarding, shopping, lounging, wine, laughing, Scrabble and Cranium, wine, hot tubbing, wine, snacking, and more wine! I learned even more about all of these girls and must say I am so lucky to have all of them at She She. Bailie, Laura, Carly, Jenn, and Bree(we missed you) thanks so much for making this a memorable trip!
