On Board Hair Salon

[Sugar*Magnolia]

I did a search but didn't find the info I was looking for so here goes with a new thread. [i'm sorry if I missed an existing thread]

 

Have you had your hair blown out or have you had an Updo on board?

 

Yay? Nay?

 

Do you have any pictures to share?

 

Thanks in advance!

Up Do??? You are showing your age...lol

Do women still do that anymore? Have not seen that in ages and if I do... it is usually paired with a prom dress from the 80's.

 

I say NAY...you probably know how to make your hair look nicer than someone else.

No, no, I am not thinking old lady or classic beauty parlor updos. :)

 

Pony tails, messy buns, off side dropped pony tails that drape your shoulder.

or google runway hair fashion week 2012.

 

And although I typically do my hair well, having a professional blow dry and style it for me on formal night would give me one less thing to do and more relax time. Guess I should mention it will be my birthday. DH is looking to book things to pamper me all day. :)

 

That led me here. My curiosity! :)

 

Thanks for your suggestion, if I decide to use the salon, it will be a first!

I had my hair done for my wedding in the ship's salon. Here are a few pics. I was nervous at first, but they did a great job.

 

Before, you can see how long my hair is.

 

After before the veil.

Usually the on board salons are way more expensive than the exact same service in a land based salon. However, if your husband is looking for things to book to pamper you on your birthday, I say GO FOR IT and enjoy!

I went for formal night to pamper myself once...did not love it... was too old lady and pricy. Like stated before you probably can make it look nicer yourself.

 

I suggest try a massage if you want to spend something and on a sea day it will even be less expensive.

We always have a massage when we're on board, but I have a bad back and recently it is even worse, so I think staying away from a massage can be a good thing. Although, tomorrow I will ask my orthopedist!

 

By the way, most hair services are less than any given massage. Hair services start at $45 and go up to $100 (length of hair and service chosen dictates price. but that is the price range). If you're lucky enough on RC to have a discount coupon in your coupon booklet, it is even cheaper.

 

Also, I would need to show the stylists pictures of what I want and first see if they can produce! I wouldnt go into it letting them do what they want. :D

 

Thanks for all the great suggestions!

I had a great hair cut and color on Celebrity Constellation in 2003 = it was no more expensive than NYC and I liked the stylist so much that when we were on the Constellation again in 2004, I had my hair done again because she was still working there - but I had just had it cut & colored, so she did a style and blow dry.

 

On the Equinox, I had a frangipane massage - it was less than wowing because I realized too late I didn't like the fragrance of frangipane. The massage part was nice though - just the head - and it was really inexpensive considering you had access to the Persian Gardens for the day.

Persian Gardens is amazing!!! I was just telling my uncle about it tonight! We were in a Concierge, not Aqua class but had a pass for a day!
