It's a beautiful thing. Spa Week is back -- Monday through Sunday, more than 30 Long Island spas, salons and fitness centers are offering $50 beauty treatments.
"Every type of treatment imaginable is being offered, from traditional massages and facials to eyelash extensions, spray tans and even Botox and vein-zapping," says Kelly Verdi, publicist for the Spa Week Media Group.
Although women, by far, remain the predominant spa clients, "we are definitely seeing more men go to the spa," says Verdi.
Take Brendan Linnehan, a personal trainer from Levittown who was getting his teeth whitened at Nu Glo Medi-Spa in Hewlett on a recent Sunday afternoon.
"I got a great deal," says Linnehan, 21 -- half of what he might have paid at a dentist's office. Next, he might try a facial.
And since everyone -- even busy moms -- deserves a little pampering, several spas are offering free child care. Here are five $50 treatments being offered. See the full list of venues at spaweek.com.
