BROOKLYN GREENSPA
Brooklyn Greenspa began courtesy of Jo’s casual comment to Bz, “Why don’t you open a skincare salon in England?” Bz had been visiting England for many years and when she stayed with Jo and Jo’s husband, Mauro, Bz would give mini treatments to Jo, who would say how great she felt afterwards.
Bz was living in the USA at the time and had wanted to live in England for many years. She had visited England for over 30 years because her late husband, Peter, was English and he and Bz would visit England frequently. She fell in love with the country, the history, literature and the people, seeing it through Peter’s eyes.
After Peter’s untimely death in 2005 and Bz’s losing her job in international trade the same month, she decided to return to school and study esthetics. She became a licensed esthetician in three of the USA states and received an ITEC diploma in Beauty Treatments.
So, long story made very short, Bz sold her house and moved to England. Mauro and Jo helped tremendously with the business sense and renovation knowledge and now, all three are happy to say, “Brooklyn Greenspa is in Deal!”
FAQ
Who is a Brooklyn Greenspa client?
Quick answer – anyone who has skin! Here is a more detailed answer – anyone who is looking for a peaceful salon where natural and organic products are used in treatments. We take pride in using Éminence Organic Skin Care products, Vegan Cosmetics Quest makeup and Beauty Without Cruelty (make-up and nail products).
What makes Éminence Organic Skin Care products so great?
Brooklyn Greenspa uses Éminence Organic Skin Care, voted the favourite skincare line nine years in a row at the American Spa Professional’s Choice Awards. Unlike most products, Éminence’s first ingredient is not water – it is actual product, not something which is diluting your product and that you have to pay for!
Do you offer injectables?
Our initial vision was to focus on gentle and relaxing procedures. However, we recognise that our clients sometimes want something of a more medical grade. After years of reflection, discussions and research we now feel the time is right to introduce this area to our offerings. More to follow…
What makes Brooklyn Greenspa different from other skincare salons?
Brooklyn Greenspa is an oasis of tranquility and relaxation – this extends to our treatment rooms, where our staff will allow you to read, listen to your favourite music or even fall asleep. The interior design was carefully thought out to be easy on the eye and all the senses.
Brooklyn Greenspa has treatment beds that are height adjustable, an accessible toilet and is on the ground floor, allowing most people to experience our treatments.
At Brooklyn Greenspa, our aim is to achieve great results without the need for harsh and invasive treatments, concentrating on the skill of the therapist, their touch and the premium active ingredients from our award-winning skin care line Eminence Organic Skin care, rather than just relying on machines.
We have a steam/shower room, so you can steam before appropriate treatments to open up pores and prepare the skin for exfoliation and product penetration. You can also shower after certain treatments.
All of our products have been carefully sourced over many years from both sides of the pond by our founders. Every brand was chosen because of its efficacy, its natural composition and ethics.
Brooklyn Greenspa only offers skin, body and nail treatments so that means excess noise is at a minimum.
What are your opening hours?
Our hours vary to flex to our clients’ needs. Please call or email re. availability. Pre-bookings essential.
Does Brooklyn Greenspa offer treatments to teenagers?
Brooklyn Greenspa does offer treatments to teenagers but depending on the teenager’s age, a parent/guardian might need to sign a consent card before we do any treatment, including manicures, pedicures or facials.
Éminence Organic Skin Care has a targeted skin-care regime and products for congested, oily skins and those prone to breakouts.
Teenagers and their parents may be concerned over the initial cost of buying these products. However, due to their concentrated formulae and the amount you need to use, the cost actually works out the same as high street brands over the long run.
How last-minute can I book an appointment?
Some treatments require a patch test – when booking over the phone or in the salon, you will be informed of this. Our online booking system also flags this up for you. You need to allow up to 48 hours between the test and your treatment.
By booking online, you can book up to one hour before a treatment, depending on availability, whilst walk-ins or phone bookings may be accommodated with a shorter notice period. It is always worth a try!
Does Brooklyn Greenspa offer discounts?
We are proud to offer a 20% discount on treatments to active military members and veterans. Please present your military card on your first visit to receive the discount. We will then make a copy of your card so you only need to show it on your first visit. We also offer 30% off for client referrals. From time to time there are other promotions. Please check our Promotions page for information.
