The most important element to a successful at-home spa party lies in the beauty treatments and pampering.
Set up individual stations with comfortable seating, clear work surfaces and easy-to-view mirrors.
Make sure you have four basic stations ready to go, then add others as budget and time allows.
Hair - can be cuts/colors, conditioning treatments, styling, etc.
Skin - professional facials are ideal, but if not try at home masks.
Make up - for a sparty during the day this is a good bet. That way you can all look your best and head out later that evening to continue the fun!
Manicure/pedicure - an absolute must! Hire a few professionals from the local salon and have whatever they need on hand to cater to at least two people at a time.
Stock each one with a variety of products (collect free samples or buy trial sizes to save money) and directions on treatments or makeup applications.
If your budget allows, consider bringing in a mobile spa to take care of all the details and beauty treatments for you.
