Day Spas
Upstairs beauty spa in the Hazelbridge Way complex near Yaohan, doing facials, skin treatments and body care by appointment. Small and quiet compared with the mall traffic downstairs, and phone booking is the norm.
Upstairs is where to look for a spa in the Golden Village. The ground floors belong to food and retail, and the treatment rooms, clinics and small studios sit on the levels above, which is how a quiet business survives in a complex where mall traffic churns along below all day. This one occupies that kind of unit near Yaohan on Hazelbridge Way.
Facials, skin treatments and body care are the range, and appointment work is the model. That has a practical consequence worth naming: the room is not full of walk-ins, and an hour where nothing is asked of you is most of what people are really paying for. The treatment is partly the excuse for buying it.
The Hazelbridge Way blocks are the dense middle of the Golden Village, with Aberdeen, Yaohan and the surrounding plazas all within a few minutes on foot of each other and the Canada Line running alongside. Skincare is taken seriously in this part of the city and the standard is correspondingly high, partly because the customer base is well informed and will simply go elsewhere.
Start with a straightforward facial if this is new territory. Have a conversation about your skin before committing to a course of anything, and be honest about what you actually do at home, because a plan built on an aspirational routine falls apart in the second week.
In the Golden Village neighbourhood of Richmond.
