Susan was my masseuse and provided one of the best massages I've had in a long time. She worked out all the knots and kinks I had with some deep tissue massage, then applied hot stones followed by some lighter touch relaxation massage. She even gave me a sample of the back walking therapy she does which I'll incorporate into my next visit. I found Susan to be friendly, caring and really enjoyable to talk to. I left there with a smile on my face and feeling like a new man! Will definitely repeat.

The music played was farm animal noises- cows mooing, pigs oinking, etc. over a musical track. The techniques used were aggressive in a way that had me bracing for the next impact. There was a lot of open hand slapping and closed fists hits that were very painful- it literally felt like I was being hit repeatedly. The massage itself was not great either. It felt super rushed, not at all relaxing, and I felt as though my masseuse was making it up as she went. This may absolutely be someone's cup of tea, but I would have liked to have had this information before booking our massage.

"I Whip My Hair Back and Forth"…read more It was the call that every woman fears with every hair fiber of her being. The thing we dread more than accidentally flashing our Spanx when getting out of a car. My favorite stylist had LEFT MY SALON (cue my internal voice yelling, "Nooooooooooooo", slo-mo, Incredible Hulk style)!! But completely meltdown was averted-- she had thankfully just moved to another fabulous salon in Red Wing that had newly opened, River Blu Salon Dayspa. I would follow my hair whisperer anywhere, but I was so glad I only had to follow her to another building in Red Wing. While we have several wonderful salons in Red Wing, you will think you've curled up, "dyed" and gone to "hairven" when you walk into River Blu. The décor in this upscale establishment is so gorgeous and serene that it bumps this spa head and shoulders above the rest of the salons in Red Wing. Located on the first floor of the historic and beautiful St. James Hotel on Main Street, the spa holds cozy relaxation/waiting lounges within, as well as fireplaces, chandeliers, a mani/pedi room and massage room that all bring to mind words like "glam", "relaxing", "modern" and "earthy". Glamodern Rearthy? Glamaxing Mearthy? Word shipping not for you? Either way, you'll feel pampered...and that's before your transformation has even begun! If you've never been to this salon, you need not worry about which stylist to go to. No matter who works their magic on the lifeless, split-end-infested hair you walked in with, you will leave with a mane that you want to toss around like you're in a Pantene commercial. The salon also takes care of your inner beauty by making sure that the products they use, such as Intelligent Nutrients and Jane Iredahl, are non-toxic and natural. And here's how much a visit will set you back (trust it will be worth it)... Eyelash extensions Forget about your gums!

Apparently, I didn't learn from this first time when the chips and cracks started. KaiLee was on phone nearly the entire time I was in her chair. I specifically asked for rounded nails and came out with square. I asked her to correct. The second time, same thing plus peeling. Also, the pedi was pathetic. Poorly trimmed and zero, nada, no shiny topcoat. In light of the product failure, I personally went in and scheduled a fix, was given a time. I showed up, but KaiLee did not. Instead, after waiting 15-20 mnutes I called her. Said she was 15 minutes out and that Na, the second tech was going to help me out. KaiLee never showed while I was there. I will give Na alot of credit for her work. She did a good job with what she had to work with. I would go back to see Na, however I wish not to go into the shop again. Na, you may wish to find another salon for your talented nail work. I do agree that the products appeared to be older, and that scrimping on products used is a general practice.

She was focused on the tv behind her and on her phone. My nails should not be falling off grown out or uneven.
