Spa at Blythswood Square Hotel
(2nd mention!) Or my favourite place on earth. Part of the 5 star Glasgow hotel, a visit to the Blythswood Spa is like descending into a sensory heaven. Spend hours luxuriating in the unique thermal experience – a seven stage journey of alternating temperatures designed to soothe with its soft colour changing vitality pool where you control the bubbles.
Why not share a rhassoul with a loved one, or bliss out completely with the spa’s range of natural Ishga Scottish seaweed derived treatments – this truly is Glasgow at its most glamorous. www.townhousecompany.com/blythswoodsquare/spa
Rainbow Room International
Glasgow’s leading colour salon and a chance to share stylists with the stars as the company’s talent is regularly represented on the red carpet and at Scotland’s leading music and fashion events. The brand even offers follow-up tips on how to maintain your colour, achieve the perfect at-home blow-dry and more in a range of dedicated how-to videos on the salon website. www.rainbowroominternational.com

Peachy keen and based in Glasgow’s city centre this is your one-stop-shop for fuzz-free, intimate waxing using specialist Perron Rigot products. Expect less pain and more pizzaz at Peaches who also offer Swarovski Vajazzles, 3D faceframe Eyebrows (think safe, skin fixing eyebrow extensions for those with little or no brow hair at all) and LVL Lash lifts for flutter-by-night style lashes – all in a unique, vintage styled salon. www.peacheswaxbar.com

Rebel Rebel
Billed as a "barbers for men and women", Rebel Rebel prides itself on an unpretentious atmosphere for those whose approach to haircare is less "what did you do on your holidays" than cutting-edge style. The Rebels love a challenge, as this writer - who once walked in with about 2ft of hair and left with an asymmetric bob/buzz-cut - can attest, but they're just as good at everything from a basic trim to a 1940s up-do. www.rebelbarber.co.uk
