Body Conscious Beauty Salon ★9.9

An Elemis salon on the Lark Lane side of town

Body Conscious sits on Aigburth Road, next to St Michaels station and a short walk from Lark Lane — a neighbourhood salon rather than a city-centre stop-off. Its distinguishing feature is depth in spa-grade skincare and body work: it runs a full Elemis treatment menu alongside Endermologie body contouring, a combination few salons on this side of the city carry.

Services

The menu leans towards longer treatments rather than quick top-ups.

• Elemis facials, from a short taster to BIOTEC and hands-on TOUCH treatments;
• Crystal Clear oxygen therapy for the skin;
• Endermologie body contouring for thighs, stomach and arms;
• freestyle deep tissue and hot stone massage;
• waxing, LVL lashes with tint, manicures and pedicures.

Technology and brands

Elemis is the house skincare line, including BIOTEC devices that pair active formulas with machine-assisted work. Crystal Clear supplies the oxygen therapy, and body contouring runs on Endermologie, a roller technology used in courses rather than one-offs. Nails are Jessica; tanning uses Fake Bake and St. Tropez.

Team and stylists

This is a small therapist-led salon rather than a large rota, and clients tend to rebook the same hands — Carla is the name that recurs most often in feedback for both massage and facial work. Because Elemis, Crystal Clear and Endermologie each require brand certification, therapists here are trained on the specific systems they operate.

The Space

The salon aims for a calm, spa-like register rather than a busy shopfront: treatments happen in enclosed rooms, not on an open floor, and the pace is set by hour-long appointments rather than turnover. Clients describe it as a serene place to switch off, helped by a residential setting away from centre-of-town noise.

Who it’s for

It suits south Liverpool residents who would rather not travel into town, and anyone who wants a proper hour on a couch rather than an express service. The Endermologie and BIOTEC courses appeal to clients working towards a result over several weeks, while waxing and LVL keep a steady local rhythm.

Questions and answers

Can I book online? Yes, through the salon’s website, and by phone for longer treatments where timing needs discussing.

How long should I allow? A taster facial is about half an hour; full Elemis facials, massage and body sessions run an hour or more.

Do you treat men and children? Men are taken for massage, facials and waxing; children only for straightforward nail services.

Can I combine treatments in one visit? Yes — a facial with massage is the classic pairing and is offered as a set treatment.

Do you sell gift vouchers? Yes, a common local gift for a named facial or spa treatment.
