Exciting News!!
We have our own very exciting news this month. In September we will be opening The Haven Spa at The Buchanan Arms Hotel in Drymen. We will be joining the existing leisure club and offering our Haven Spa treatments to hotel guests, club members and local residents alike. Watch this space for more details and photographs as the Spa starts to take shape over the coming weeks.
Team News
Our team will be expanding and many of you will be introduced to Fiona S, Fiona P, Jemma & Christina who will be completing their training in Balloch under the watchful eye of Lynn. As the team grows, Lynn will also become the Havens Training Manager. This will allow her to focus more on the on-going training and developement of our team of 12 which will mean her spending less time in her therapist role.
I'm sure this will sadden some of Lynns clients who have watched her grow over the last 9 years but fear not, she will be ensuring that our exceptionally high standards continue in all areas. She will, of course, continue to offer her services as Scotlands Premier Facialist so won't be giving up her therapies completely.
The Haven at The Lodge News
The Haven at the Lodge goes from strength to strength. In April we were visited by the editor of The Good Spa Guide for our first ever review and scored an amazing 4 out of 5 Bubbles! Click here to see the full review or to leave feedback on your own visits.
The Haven on the Loch was also visited but we couldn't be awarded any bubbles as we're not strictly speaking a spa! We did get a brilliant review though which you can read here.

Revolutionary new Lycon Waxing system
We are proud to be amongst the first to offer the revolutionary new Lycon Waxing system from Australia. Waxing will never be the same again!
Lycon is the world wide market leader in dipilatory wax, developed in the late 70's by Lydia Jordane who was a therapist keen to create a wax that would be less painful and more thorough than any other wax on the Market.
May 2005 saw the opening of London's first waxing bar. When 'Strip' in Notting Hill was launched it created a media frenzy due to the fact that it did what it set out to do - revolutionise the waxing industry and take the pain out of waxing treatments. A-List Celebs including Sienna Miller and Victoria Beckham, become devout fans of Lycon waxing treatments.
Lycon wax includes a variety of waxes and oils which allows the therapist to select the correct products to suit the needs of each clients skin & hair type. For hot waxing, we prep the skin by applying an essential-oil based lotion and then choose the most effective wax.(Chocolate and Hazelnut is the current favourite). The wax literally shrink wraps itself around the hair and does not stick to the skin. When the wax is removed it pulls from the very root of the hair follicle, removing the dermal-papilla. This prevents air breakage, in-grown hairs, bruises and redness and the painful sting associated with other types of wax. Amazingly, this wax will remove stubborn hairs as short as 1mm. After-care lotions and oils are also essential-oil based and leave the skin glowing, healthy & rejuvenated ideal for the perfect Brazilian or Hollywood wax too.
