With Mother’s Day around the corner, I wanted to share with you an adorable salon and facial bar that opened in February of 2016 – Mamma Mia Salon and Facial Bar. Located in Guadalajara, Jalisco, Mexico, this beauty business is the first of its kind in Mexico. Mamma Mia Salon & Facial Bar focuses on catering to the beauty, health and the welfare of mother and daughters, and is an outlet where they can go to enjoy exceptional spa services together. To get some Mother’s Day spa inspiration, I chatted with Repêchage Mexico Distributor Mayola Amador who worked alongside salon owner Juan Carlos to help the idea behind Mamma Mia come to life.
What was the inspiration behind the concept of Mamma Mia Salon and Facial Bar?
We know that everyone leads busy lives! There is less time for mothers to spend with their daughters, so we wanted to create a space that offers them a unique experience where they can enjoy activities together. This is what inspired us to create Mamma Mia Salon and Facial Bar, where beauty salon and skin care services are tailored specifically for mothers and daughters. Both can relax and enjoy multiple beauty services in a contemporary European ambiance, designed for moms and their princesses.
What services does Mamma Mia Salon and Facial Bar offer that both mothers and daughters can enjoy?
Mamma Mia provides hair services and cosmetic treatments, including Repêchage facials manicures, pedicures, hand/foot treatments, and as well as innovative skin care products for at-home use.
Since opening a little over one year ago, what has been the response from new and existing clients?
Our clients and little girls in particular are extremely surprised as soon as they enter the salon. Little girl’s expressions have been “Wow! Is this for real?! This looks like a dream!!!” They all love the concept.
Why do you think the spa is such a great outlet for mothers and daughters to enjoy?
The idea is that our clients can enjoy quality mother-daughter time, and that it is as much fun as it can be! They can have different services under the same roof and experience beauty and relaxation together.
What is Mamma Mia doing to ensure mothers and daughters enjoy the best spa treatment possible together?
With the ‘Mommy and Me’ Facials with Repêchage FUSION™ Express Bar and Spa Masks, not only are mothers and daughters getting pampered and spending quality time with one another, but they’re partaking in an activity that is both beneficial for their wellbeing and skin. During this time, both can enjoy time together without distractions from the outside world and digital life, while being treated to a facial based on flavors that mother and daughters of all ages, and skin types, love and enjoy. Whether it’s a FUSION™ Chocofina Facial, FUSION™ Vanillafina Facial, FUSION™ Berryfina Facial, or FUSION™ Matchafina Facial, all are based on natural and organic ingredients that have real benefits for the skin and encompass decadent aromas to create a sensory experience.
Why is it important for daughters to start taking care of their skin at a younger age?
When it comes to great skin for life you can never start too young. Like eating healthy and staying active, skin care is an important component of a healthy lifestyle.
Which facial treatments do you find are most enjoyed by daughters and mothers the most?
Repêchage FUSION™ Express Bar and Spa Masks are enjoyed by daughters and help complement other services, including manicures, pedicures, hair services, and hand/foot treatments. It’s a fun and relatable concept that also offers an amazing platform to educate young women and their mothers on the importance of skin care. Many mothers love the FUSION™ Express Bar and Spa Masks too! And of course, many mothers enjoy the classic Repêchage facial treatments for skin aging, including the Repêchage Four Layer Facial®, Repêchage Vita Cura® 5 Phase Firming Facial, Biolight™ Miracle Facial, and Opti-Firm® Eye Contour Treatment.
Why do you feel Repêchage treatments are the perfect fit for Mamma Mia Salon & Facial Bar and its unique concept?
Mamma Mia Salon and Facial Bar uses Repêchage skin care products exclusively in this luxury Guadalajara spa. This location targets the high-end consumer and client who is looking for immediate and long term results in their skin care. Repêchage is the perfect skin care partner in this endeavor, being pioneers in the science and application of natural and highly effective seaweed-based facials, treatments and products.
