Can Can Parleur Organic Hand and Foot Spa
VIVE L A FRANCE at CAN CAN PARLEUR The Can Can Parleur’s Hand & Foot Spa is not only a 100 percent nontoxic environment, everything from the wallpaper and furniture to the polish is chemical free. However, this is not the typical sterile and cold environment. The vibe is decidedly La Belle Époque, when peace and prosperity in Paris allowed the arts to flourish and creative expression to blossom with decadent and inspired abandon. This spot certainly feels like a sexy French lady opened a cozy secret place where you can socialize with family, friends and neighbors while relaxing on chintz cushions surrounded by antiques. So, perhaps the express mani & pedi option—the “Can Can Quickie”—is for you. If you have time, try the more indulgent “Champagne et Roses” that offers a luxurious soak of roses and essential oils, followed by a hot stone massage, keratin treatment, and lathering of an organic honey, milk and rose lotion. While you are sipping bubbly or tea and enjoying the décor, your esthetician will be using all-natural, vegan and cruelty-free products on your fingers and toes. They proudly use the Be Silky callus softener line of noncorrosive products—the only one certified on the market. And, Can Can is also the only nail spa in Los Angeles licensed to do Bio Seaweed Gel nails— an organic chemical-free gel polish. From a wellness and environmental perspective, there is also zero water used in the treatments. According to the owner, Carolann Shapiro, water makes the nails flexible and is not good overall for the condition or cleanliness of the treatment. What you will find are tea tree-based cleaners, an anti-inflammatory milk bath and an Edith Piaf song wafting through the salon. www.cancanparleur.com
