Sydney's Spa Girls

Talk about traumatizing.

Last time you went to get a massage, you ran into Suzy Howell, high school nemesis, in the ladies’ locker room. You weren’t wearing a stitch of makeup, hair product, or even clothes.

If such an incident — or the mere possibility of one — isn’t your idea of fun, call Sydney’s Spa Girls, a traveling ensemble of professional aestheticians, masseurs, and nail techs who make house calls. Offering services like facials, massages, manicures, and pedicures, they’ll host a customized spa party in your home.

Packages range from $125 per person (minimum of eight) to $250 per person (minimum of four). Decorations, snacks, and cleanup — plus fluffy white robes and slippers — are included.

And, given that you control the guest list, you can be sure of one thing.

Suzy won’t be anywhere in sight.
