Salon grooming for men has really taken off and men have been quick to discover the benefits of skin care beyond soap and water!

All of our treatments offered are available for men (although we don't offer scrotum waxing - we don't have the balls for it!) We do, however, offer treatments designed especially for men including back, bum, nostril and ear waxing. Our long suffering partners, brothers and fathers were delighted with the results and cannot stop talking about it - it's not nearly as uncomfortable as you might imagine - nothing like the agony of tweezing a single nostril hair!

We also offer brow shaping tailored especially for male brows for the ultimate in rugged yet powerful presence. Good brows command respect!

The Duchess, as with many salons, has an all-female staff. Gentlemen, if you would like a massage and you are feeling anxious about a female therapist, or have any other concerns, please do call us to discuss these with our friendly and understanding staff.

We practice a safe working area policy. For your safety and ours we may not be able to offer gentlemen an appointment on the few occasions when we only have one female therapist in the salon. This is as much for your benefit and comfort as ours.

All of our clients - female, male and transgender - are absolutely lovely, sympathetic and tolerant.  Our salon is a safe space and a refuge from the normal everyday stresses for everyone. However we are able to offer male-only and female-only appointment slots on a request basis subject to availability (please note that at present all of our therapists are female). If you would prefer one of these slots we advise you to book well in advance and we hope you will be understanding of our needs as we will try to meet your requirements.

Men's Heavenly Bee Sting Facial (60mins) £75
The facial designed for Royalty - now exclusively available here in Bath at The Duchess.  Our male clients adore this facial - a real pamper treatment designed to soothe dry skin, soften beard growth and smooth fine lines and wrinkles around the eyes and temples.  Weather beaten cheeks will calm and deep expression lines will lift.  You'll look and feel rested and well - this facial delivers many of the benefits of a massage and includes massage to the back of the neck and head. This treatment will gently cleanse and deeply moisturise, helping to heal shaving rashes, irritation and ingrown hairs.  This facial includes a generous application of Deborah Mitchell's famous Silver Bee Venom Mask (available to purchase for just £82 a pot!)

Men's Technical Facial (45 mins) £110
The wonderous Heaven Lipolis 7 facial to tackle jowls, improve jaw definition and lift sagging cheeks, scars are smoothed, patchy or freckley pigmentation is improved and fine lines are smoothed.  Noticeable improvements to the skin and underlying tissue from the first treatment to help keep that Chancellor of the Exchequer impersonation at bay! This is an infrared treatment combined with radio frequency - we love a good gadget.  

Men's Body Contouring Treatments (30 mins) £60

Sculpt a leaner, more defined body shape, tighten and firm loose skin, improve freckles and skin blemish marks.  This is the Heaven Lipolis 7 treatment which uses radio frequency, infrared light and ultrasonic cavitation to break down fat cells from the very first treatment.  (Allow up to a week for results to develop as your body breaks down and sheds the fat.)  Each treatment can focus on one area - abs or upper arms for instance.  There is no reason why you can't have two treatments one after the other for different areas if you wish.

Back Cleanse (40 mins) £40

Acne-prone, blemished or excessively dry skin can be treated with this cleanse ... like a facial for your back! Includes cleanse, tone, back massage and electric high frequency treatment to tackle problem areas.

Body Massage (25 mins - 50 mins) £40 - £65

Please See our Massage Page for more details.  All of our massages are suitable for gentleman.  However, if you like a firm touch the deep tissue and hot stone massages are particularly recommended.  (The addition of heat enables us to get deep into the belly of the muscle.)  

Male hair removal and skin revitalisation treatments

Consultations are free for these treatments suitable for men and women. Please see treatment list for price guide.

Male Waxing
This is a very effective way of dealing with unwanted body hair and not as painful as you might imagine in our expert hands. Regrowth is slow and many men find that they are less hairy after repeat waxings.
