Elizabeth Arden introduced the first day spa in 1910, known as Manhattan’s Red Door Salon. Spas during that time offered massages, manicures and facials – costly indulgences often reserved for wealthy women on special occasions. Since then, the increased demand for spa services has led to greater accessibility to individualized treatments for not only women of all income levels, but men and children. No longer limited to facial treatments and massage, innovative spas have now become the first stop for clients interested in caring for themselves through weight management, nutrition counseling, hydrotherapy, yoga or meditation.
The beauty community’s shift toward holistic self-care and do-it-yourself luxury skin care has carved a path of entry for technologically advanced skincare devices and tailored at-home facial treatments. Skin care enthusiasts have essentially torn down the walls of the spa to take on a more active role in pampering their skin at home. The spa of the future will capitalize on this shift by approaching skincare in a more comprehensive way, with estheticians not only incorporating innovative devices into their facial treatments but also offering these customizable cleansing and facial massage tools to their clients for at-home use.
