The skincare trade here runs deeper than the mall storefronts suggest. Facial studios and treatment rooms occupy the upper floors along No. 3 Road and inside the Golden Village malls, working with Korean and Japanese product lines, LED and microcurrent devices, and multi-step protocols that regular clients book monthly.
A second cluster sits with the hotels. Bridgeport, City Centre and the Sea Island airport properties all run or host spa facilities, with steam rooms, saunas and same-day booking open to guests and locals alike. Everywhere else it is neighbourhood scale: waxing, brows and lashes, body treatments and nail services in the Blundell, Seafair and Steveston plazas. Listings note hours and whether appointments are required.
Steveston spa best known for Japanese-style head spa sessions, including a two-person option, plus facials and nail services. Open daily from mid-morning to 7pm and heavily booked, so reserve rather than walking in.

Guides and roundups written for Richmond, with the businesses linked inline.
Nothing on Alexandra Road is a hidden gem. It is just in a strip mall with bad signage and no patio, which is why visitors never find it. Here is how I actually use Richmond's plazas and food courts, which specialists are worth the drive, and when not to bother.
The West Dyke Trail is about five and a half kilometres of flat gravel between Terra Nova Rural Park and Garry Point, and I ride it most mornings. Here is what is actually at the north end, which way to walk so the wind is on your side, and why winter is the better season for it.
I live four blocks off Moncton Street, so this is the Steveston I actually use: where to park before the Bayview lots fill, how to buy fish straight off the boats at the wharf, the honest answer to the Pajo's versus Dave's question, and why the history here is not decoration.
