Anniversary reblog!

I really don't know how I missed this post a year ago. How many of you rushed to Altamonte Springs to take LaShawn up on her kind offer?

I know, with a title like this one, how could you NOT read this post???

For those of you who appreciate a good margarita while having fish nibble at the dead skin on your feet, Bahama Nails & Spa in Altamonte Springs, Florida should be your next destination!

Ok, I'll admit it, when the owner, Trish, told me last week that she was getting Dr. Fish flown in from Turkey and that they would be the new "guests" in my pedicure party, I was wondering if I was hearing her right...I mean really, fish that will eat the dead skin off my feet as I sit in the pedicure chair enjoying an "adult beverage?"

Hmmm, I thought, maybe she'd been testing out one too many of those margaritas in preparation for the arrival of her friendly fish???

But, I'm here to report that Trish was not only totally sober, but her salon is one of the first to offer this new "cutting edge" service in all of Central Florida!

According to the research I've done, Garra Rufa fish, AKA Dr. Fish, do exist and are now being used in some of the most well-respected spas in New York and California as a pedicure treatment used to remove excess and dead skin from the feet. Although more well known in Turkey and China, this new "trend" is certain to gain attention in the Orlando area!

To experience it yourself, I'd suggest calling Trish at Bahama Nails & Spa at (407) 865-6111 or visit them in their Altamonte Springs spa which is located at 954 N. State Road 434, Suite 1003, Altamonte Springs, FL 32714. Altamonte Springs is located in Seminole County Florida, which is approximately 12 miles North of Downtown Orlando.

I'm planning a trip in myself next week...

If you or someone you know is seeking an agent who not only is knowledgeable about the real estate market, but is also up on fun and trendy events, openings and services being offered in the Seminole County area, I'd welcome the opportunity to hear from you! Feel free to call me at (321) 377-0157 or email me at LaShawn@LaShawnNorden.com.

I'd be happy to treat you to your first Dr. Fish Pedicure at Bahama Nails & Spa!

Are you serious - really?  I'm going to sit out on this spa but I will take you up on a margarita!  Man - feels like I'v got little fish nibbling on me now.  Kind of weird!

Howdy there Robin

I did not see this here blog post before. I'm not into going to a spa of any kind. But I do like Margaritas.

I freak out when I'm cleaning the fish tank and brush against one of the fish with my hands. I could not imagine letting fish nibble on my heels.

On another note, I did try threading last week. It wasn't as painful as waxing but it still left my skin a little blotchy. Not like the surface of Mars, though, like the result from waxing.

I had heard about this on one of the television documentaries, but it just sounds weird to me.
