Redface Body Treatments? - 13-03-08, 10:19 PM

Hi I would like some information on body treatments i.e Wraps and .... well to be honest I'm not sure what else is available.
I've never worked in a salon that did them or had one done. (although I have had a tired leg thing done it was freezing and awful!!)

So what I want to know is:

1)what types of things do they do/how do you do them
2)do you need any training from college/brand
3)what brands do you use

Thank you xx

well you have the traditional contour wrap which is the bandages.

you can also have a wrap (which are more popular in spas etc) where you apply the product, wrap client up in a sheet of cellophane and then foil.

or their are slimming wraps where you measure parts of the body, apply wrap, wrap them in cling film, then remeasure the body to show that they have lost x amount of inches over the ENTIRE body.

the 2nd one is probably the most relaxing.

wrap ingredients:
clay
mud
chocolate
algae
herbs

sorry, thats my entire knowledge.

i use strictly professional body contour wrap from bellitas.

I get really good results. Once got 6 inches off a size 6 client!! lol.

However, i cannot stand to have it done myself, as you have to wrap the bandages tight and i find it uncomfortable.
