Another fabulous facial from Louise. I had the detox and my face felt (and looked) a million times better. I had to skip the back massage today (😢) because of a bad back, but I have to say, the heated bed really helped ease it. My son (35) came along with me today for the men’s facial and back massage and says he feels so much better for it. As always, Louise made us feel completely at ease and pampered. Brilliant!

Had a Pearl Prescription Facial today. Louise had to apply 3 different face masks to different areas of my face to address my needy skin! I just lay there letting Louise do all the hard work whilst I relaxed in her beautiful salon. I just love coming here x

I injured my back and broke ribs in a riding accident. Louise gives a superb massage to relieve the aches and pains and demonstrates her superb knowledge, talking through what she finds and needs to do. The salon is immaculate relaxing and a safe place to visit. Louise works with both a visor and face mask.

Just had an amazing face the world sacred candle back massage which was absolutely fabulous. I would definitely recommend this and Louise. From walking into the gorgeous treatment room, the atmosphere and lovely smelling candles, to leave is amazing. You're welcomed into the room and instantly feel calm and relaxed with no rush. Louise chats and explains everything that is going to be done and shows you all the products that will be used. Afterwards Louise brings you a drink of your choice and a treat and leaves you to sit and relax. Cannot recommend Louise enough. Thanks again xxx

If I could give more stars I would! Can’t thank Louise enough for how refreshed she makes me feel by the time I leave after my treatments. I had the Snowberry Candle Massage, Facial and Pink Gin Pedicure (which is a fav) and my skin feels amazing. Already booked in for my next appointments because I’m sick of missing out when she is fully booked.

Face Waxing FAQs
Face waxing is a hair removal technique that sees hot or cold wax applied to areas of unwanted hair on your face. The wax is then quickly stripped off in the opposite direction to hair growth, pulling the hair out from the root in the process.
No. If you have dry or sensitive skin you should avoid face waxing because it could make your symptoms worse. Other side effects you may experience – whatever your skin type – are pain, redness, and irritation. You may also experience a rash, ingrowing hairs, temporary bumps, bleeding, infection, scarring, allergies, and sensitivity to the sun.
Roughly 3-4 weeks; after that new hairs will start to grow.
You can get waxing for a number of areas on your face including your eyebrows, mouth, ears, chin, nose, cheeks, and even your sideburn area.
In the days leading up to your appointment, stop any hair removal you’re doing in the area you intend on having waxed because your hair needs to be long enough (between a quarter to half an inch in length) for the wax to grip and remove it. You should also avoid acidic products and skin peels, and take care to moisturise and stay hydrated. If you have cuts or blemishes in the area you want waxed, you’re best off waiting for them to heal before you go ahead with your appointment. On the day of your face waxing appointment, cleanse your face as normal, but avoid applying any creams or makeup, and steer clear of anything that could heighten your skin’s sensitivity, like exposure to the sun and sun beds.
Your face waxing technician will prepare the wax for your treatment – they’re likely to use either hard or soft wax. Once it’s ready, they’ll apply it to the area(s) on your face you want treated, then swiftly remove it in the opposite direction of your hair’s growth, plucking the hair out from the roots.

Face waxing in Houghton leaves you with beautiful brows, while taking care of unwanted hair elsewhere. Chin, cheek and lip hair can disappear before you know it, though you may feel a tweak as they go.
The great thing about waxing – compared to plucking and shaving – is that the hairs get finer as they regrow. And while bleaching facial hair is pain-free, you don't get the same velvety skin texture that hair removal provides. Face waxing is quick, anywhere between 10 minutes and 1 hour 25 minutes. Fresha features the latest offers on face waxing, but expect to pay around £5 to £40.
