Little Princess–The Spa edition

Princess Boo loves a bit of pampering. She loves it on the rare occasion she gets to come to the salon for a mini-manicure and pedicure. She loves having her feet, head and back massaged.

I can only blame myself… or her numerous overseas Aunts who first enticed her to the salon for a mini-manicure and pedicure for her 3rd birthday, prior to a wedding we attended in Abu Dhabi (where every second shop is a salon or spa)!

I can also blame Grandma who on our numerous trips to Bali has always taken Princess Boo for a foot or head massage down the beach.

At the ripe old age of 6, I figured the Little Princess Spa package was right up her alley. I had concerns that she wouldn’t last through 2 hours of pampering.

Oh how wrong I was to be concerned!

We were in fits of giggles before our massages as Princess Boo donned adult size disposable knickers, and ran around our massage tables like a child of Tarzan!

I never heard a sound from Princess Boo in the half hour during her massage, and then I heard her whisper incredulously “Mum, she’s rubbing sand on me!”

Me and the 2 Balinese massage ladies again were in fits of laughter as we explained body scrubs. We also then had to explain body masque as the cream she was smothered in began to dry a bit like wax.

As I enjoyed the rest of my massage, body scrub and masque, Princess Boo was whisked away for her manicure and pedicure.

After my pampering session, I found Princess Boo enjoying a blow dry after her hair wash and scalp massage.

She has begun asking if we can do the same thing in Perth. I am yet to find a spa and/or salon that has a package for little girls, and for a reasonable cost. I think it will just have to be a special treat on our overseas trips!
