Editorial Review for The Shirodhara Day Spa – by Michelle Merrill
The Scene
A neighborhood place, this spa is easy to miss when driving down busy Fort Union Boulevard (look across the street from the Whitmore Library). Built into a renovated cottage, the retreat looks like a pretty sachet bag (you can smell aromatherapy from the parking lot). Treatment areas branch off from the main salon like small bedrooms--some are tucked into the back of the building, while others are downstairs on the basement level.
The Services
The menu's selection includes mud wraps, hydrotherapy, glycolic facials and detoxification. The signature service is the Ayurvedic Oil Treatment, a supposedly ancient healing practice that involves a fine stream of hot oil poured on the forehead. Also unique is the spa's meticulous approach to something as simple as a manicure--count on extra lotion and a hand massage. When scheduling a facial, allow plenty of time for repeated layers of very deep exfoliation.

The Shirodhara Day Spa also features Utah's premier Japanese Hair Straightener---Annie O' Connor. She uses the very best product---Liscio---and has been certified in this method. She's really nice, professional, and does a great job. Don't go to somebody who hasn't been well trained or who uses an inferior product. (always ask about the straighteners training and product). She can do ethnic hair. Mine was horribly fuzzy before Annie and after a botched job by another stylist. Annie made it smooth and straight. I believe she has more than five years experience in Thermal Reconditioning (also called Japanese Hair Straightening) and uses deep moisturizers that actually make my hair feel healthier than before the process. No more frizzies for me---even in humid hot weather.
Pros: Annie is really a "pro"!
Cons: Annie's talents are a well kept secret and I think she deserves to have a higher profile so that Utah-Frizz sufferers can find relief!

I have been going to Shirodhara for the last year for all of my pampering needs (ie: pedicures, manicures, hair, etc.), and they are very professional and friendly. The girls that work there help me right away and will go above and beyond--for example, when I got my hair done last week, I didn't feel that my stylist had gotten my highlights close enough to the roots, so she went in and fixed it at no charge!
Pros: The employees are so professional, the environment is just relaxing, and they do a great job!
Cons: A lttile expensive, but it comes with the territory; limited parking
