12 Days of Aveda Holiday Deals

Aveda Holiday Deals

The best type of Christmas is an Aveda Christmas! With the holiday season in full swing, I am constantly wracking my brain on what to get people. With an Aveda salon in your area, it’s easier than ever before to give your loved one the perfect gift. I can’t get enough of Aveda, so I definitely have a holiday wish list. I have a feeling, people in your life would love them too! Keep reading to find out more about some Aveda Holiday Deals we have this season.

Josie’s Aveda Holiday Wish List

Aveda always is a great gift choice in my opinion. However, there are three products in particular that I think would really be stand out gifts.

  1. Hand or Foot Relief – Aveda has the hand and foot lotion game on lock. I love how moisturizing the Hand Relief is without being “greasy”. It soaks into the skin quickly without leaving a film. The Foot Relief is similar in that it is super moisturizing, but it also has a mint aroma that leaves your feet feeling fresh.
  2. Beautifying Radiance Polish – Every person I have gifted this scrub to loves it! My boyfriend’s mom has been obsessed with it ever since and even said she noticed that her other son has taken a liking to it as well. It is super moisturizing which is great for the winter dryness we experience here in Michigan. It makes an everyday shower turn into a spa experience.
  3. Speed of Light – I have been absolutely LOVING this hair product since it’s came out. It helps to speed up the time of your blow dry. It helps to spread apart the hair strands so that the blow dry air flows through better. It also is a detangler and a heat protectant making it a great all in one prep product for all hair types!

12 Days of Aveda Holiday Deals

This year we are doing 12 Days of Aveda Holiday Deals as our promotion for the season. How it works is every night from the 11th until the 22nd, you will receive and email with a special deal that is only valid for the following business day. They could be product deals, or service deals! Half of the fun is getting the surprise deal at night. So keep your eyes peeled so you don’t miss the day to get someone you care for the perfect Aveda gift.

 

Until Next Time,

Josie 🙂

Aveda’s Stress Fix Line at Ashka Salon Spa

Stress Fix

As much as I would love to say I am completely calm, 100% of the time, I’m not. Stress is inevitable no matter how much we try to avoid it. The only thing we can do is learn how to manage our stress. Everyone has different ways that work best for them. Lately, going to the gym has been a huge stress reliever for me. Another way that I have been able to help manage my stress is with a bath bomb and a face mask. However, some days are so filled that I may not have the time to do either of these things. When this happens, sometimes deep breaths with some of Aveda’s Stress Fix aroma does the trick.

Stress Fix

What’s the Deal with Stress Fix?

Aveda’s Stress Fix line is a wonderful addition to anyone’s at home spa routine. The aroma is proven to reduce the feelings of stress with certified organic lavender, lavandin,  and clary sage formulated using the power of pure essential oils.

The products included in Aveda’s Stress Fix line are:

  • Composition Oil
  • Creme Cleansing Oil
  • Body Creme
  • Body Lotion
  • Soaking Salts

Stress Fix Special Offer

Now until April 28, 2018, we have a couple of specials going on involving Aveda’s Stress Fix line. When you purchase two Aveda haircare products, you will receive a FREE Aveda Travel Stress Fix Composition Oil. This is a great way to try out this aroma and see how much you love it.

If you are already a fan of this line, when you purchase one or more Stress Fix Bodycare products, you will receive 20% your entire Aveda purchase!

Stop in before April 28, 2018, to take advantage of these great offers. We’d love to help you find the product that would work best for you! I know you will love adding this to your at home self-care routine.

Until Next Time,

Self Care Savings at Ashka Salon Spa

Self Care

Self care has been a huge topic of thought for me lately. As I have gotten older, I have realized the importance of self care. You cannot give, if your basket is empty. Everyone needs to take time to replenish themselves so that they are in the best state of mind to keep moving through life. Ashka Salon Spa believes this as well, and we are happy to provide a space that you can focus on that self care. Until April 28th, 2018, we are running a special called the #SelfCare Savings Package so that you can focus on yourself for once.

What’s Included in the Self Care Savings Package?

Self Care

Self care doesn’t have to break the bank. This spring Ashka Salon Spa is running a special so that you can enjoy multiple services for a discounted package price. Take a minute to take care of your skin and hair with the #SelfCare Savings Package.

For $100 you will receive:

• Fifty-Minute Tulasara Facial Treatment
• Paraffin Hand Dip
• Shampoo & Blowdry
• AVEDA’s NEW Shine Treatment

These services ala carte are normally a $160 value. You will get approximately two hours of peaceful alone time to center yourself. Think of it almost as mental spring cleaning.

Misty actually just gave me a Fifty-Minute Tulasara Facial Treatment today and I am always amazed at how much that deep cleansing makes me feel better. An hour of peace and quiet, while a trained esthetician takes care of my skin, is exactly what the doctor ordered.

Last week, I was giving my guest an 80 minute pedicure. This service includes a Paraffin Foot Dip. We both agreed that we love the difference the paraffin makes when it comes to moisturizing our skin. My skin personally has been so dry this winter. I know I can use any bit of moisture that I can get.

Aveda‘s New Shine Treatment is amazing! It came out recently and I have been loving adding it to any guest who is interested in it. My hair has never looked or felt better since I’ve been using it on my own head as well!

Call the salon today to book your #SelfCare Savings Package today while we still have availability.

Until Next Time,

Josie 🙂

Father’s Day Gift Ideas at Ashka Salon Spa

Father's Day Gift Ideas

Father’s Day is around the corner, and approaching more rapidly than I’d like if I am being honest. I have yet to get the men in my life something for this special day! When I was thinking about what I could get my Dad, I was completely stumped. I realized that I cannot be the only person feeling this way! So, I decided to pull together a list of what I would consider to be the top 3 Father’s Day Gift Ideas at Ashka Salon Spa.

Josie’s Top 3 Father’s Day Gift Ideas at Ashka Salon Spa

Father's Day Gift Ideas
Father’s Day Gift Ideas
  1. Aveda Men’s Shampoo and Conditioner
    Everyone shampoo and conditions their hair, and if they aren’t they should be! Aveda’s Men’s aroma is one of my absolute favorite out of the whole company. The aroma’s key notes are certified organic spearmint, vetiver, and lavender. If your dad has been loving our new Men’s Grey Blending Color, you could always grab some Color Conserve for him too!
  2. Aveda Men’s Aftershave
    Aftershave is one of the most under appreciated skincare products in my opinion. With Aveda’s Aftershave, it helps with razor burn and moisturizes your skin. However, it also controls oil, making it good for all skin types! It has been dermatologist-tested as well.
  3. Ashka Salon Spa Gift Card
    When in doubt, a gift card is never a bad option as a gift. I know someone feel as though it is less personal to give a gift card, but I know that when I receive one, I am ecstatic about it! I love being able to pick out my own thing and just get exactly what I want or need. If you think your dad would have a hard time picking something out for himself, you can always recommend a spa service, such a massage or facial, with one of our amazing spa service providers.

I hope that this list makes your shopping trip just a little bit easier this year for Father’s Day! Stop in today for your last minute Father’s Day gift ideas!

Until Next Time,

Josie 🙂

 

 

Get Your Beauty Box at Ashka Salon Spa

Beauty Box

Monthly subscription boxes of any type seems to be all the rage lately. At Ashka Salon Spa we have jumped head first into that trend! We now are offering our own “Beauty Box”. Although most of these types of products change monthly, ours goes as long as supplies lasts. I have seen multiple of my guests fall in love with new products this way! Its an awesome way for people who want to try out Aveda products but don’t want spend a lot in case they don’t like it.

Beauty Box
Beauty Box

What Can I Expect To Find in a Beauty Box?

Each time we come out with a new “Beauty Box” it is different! We have had two now. One was Damage Remedy themed, and now we have a Smooth Infusion box.

Currently in our Smooth Infusion Beauty Box you get:

  • Smooth Infusion Shampoo Sample
  • A Sample of Smooth Infusion Smoothing Masque
  • Smooth Infusion Style Prep Sample
  • A Sample  of Smooth Infusion Nourishing Styling Creme
  • $5 COUPON for product at a FUTURE visit

Would you believe me if I said you get ALL of this for ONLY $5? Well you should, because it is!

What is the Beauty of a Beauty Box?

I think the coolest thing about Ashka Salon Spa’s Beauty Boxes is that it gives you a chance to sample the Aveda products. I have said it before, and I will continue to say it, I TRULY believe that Aveda products are the best choice for your hair. However, living on a budget myself, I understand that it is scary to invest in something you don’t know for sure. By giving this affordable option to dive into the Aveda world, Ashka Salon Spa is making it much less frightening.

Give it a try! I promise you won’t regret purchasing one of our Beauty Boxes.

Until Next Time,

Josie 🙂
