Spa Bleu
Cozily nestled on Furys Lane, Spa Bleu has been regularly nominated and voted on as one of Augusta’s best day spas since 2009. Owner and aesthetician Mirenda Petrea works alongside a master stylist, licensed massage therapist, and spa coordinator/photographer to provide some of the best spa services to clients.
Per their website, the name ties back to the atmosphere: “Spa Bleu skincare-beauty studio is a quaint little relaxation retreat with accents of blue designed to calm you.”
These spa professionals provide a host of facials, massage therapy, body treatments, hair removal, and a host of spa packages. Perhaps try the Lux Facial for a signature spa experience, including 75 minutes of deep cleaning and facial massage. Or starting at $85 for a 60-minute massage, you can enjoy deep relaxation at an affordable price.

If you want to see a tour of the place, here’s a recent local news clip on YouTube:
V’s Barbershop
And last, but certainly not least, there is V’s Barbershop. Being a regular customer for several years, this spot incorporates the latest technology for an excellent barbershop experience. Since Men’s Refinery Barberspa closed its doors, you won’t find a man cave that offers a round of indoor golf and drinks after your haircut here. But this is better.
V’s gentleman’s shave and signature cuts are the perfect options for a quick lunch break or relaxing weekend. They offer prompt service, reasonable prices, and a quick shoulder massage is included!
A full listing of V’s Barbershop services can be found here.
And finally, for those days when you can’t make it to the spa, perhaps try using a handheld massage gun, scalp massager, and a blackout sleep mask. These are the ones I prefer and they can be found on Amazon.
