Can anyone recommend a beauty salon in the Baar or Zug area (or close by to those 2 towns) for a pedicure or facial or manicure?

Hi,
I usually go to Jessica at Oswald, just across from the front of the train station. She's good, mellowand not chatty, so you an relax. +41 41 711 46 47
She's usually quite booked so you'll probably have to make an appointment well in advance if you want to pick your time slot.

This one is called Beauty and Lounge ( www.beautyandlounge.ch - 041711 25 55) I've been there a number of times - they're friendly and reasonably priced, also offer a number of services.
Enjoy!

Great tips for facials and nails! I have wondered about that myself.
Does anyone have a recommendation in the Baar/Zug area for hair color and cut? I have usually used Goldwell brand for my hair color and am generally well pleased. I cannot seem to find that here in the Zug/Baar area and I do not like the brand Wella that almost all of the salons here use...it left my blond hair a brassy gold.
Any tips on hair salons would be much appreciated!

sonnyk, a hair salon in Rapperswil uses Goldwell. I know it is a bit of a trip, but if interested they are: Haute Coiffure Reduit AG, Sonnenhof (this is a shoppig centre); tel: 055 210 8070
On the other hand I have not been able to find somebody that uses Wella here. Any suggestions? I know of a Wella Studio in Zurich, but anyone else?

I think I called them a while back and they have Goldwell as a hair product that they sell, but they do not actually use it to color. I think they use Loreal... | Quote: | |  | | | sonnyk, also Valentino's in Zug uses Goldwell.

Great! Thanks for the information! I will give them a call.
Have you had any luck yet finding a Wella salon?
The next time I walk through Baar, I will write down the name of some salons using Wella. One day, I went through the directories.ch and called about 10 salons and all of them used Wella! | Quote: | |  | | | sonnyk, a hair salon in Rapperswil uses Goldwell.

Sorry, nobody needs a wax??!!
I don't think ur boyfriend will notice if u use Wella or Schwarzkopf, but if your body is covered with black think hair then I think he will notice |

Is it normal for a pedicure in Zug to cost CHF 80?? And that doesn't even include polish!! Back in NY, you can get a manicure AND pedicure, including a massage and the works for $15 and your nails look unbelievable. I got a manicure and pedicure at a place by the Metalli and they didn't even have a pedicure chair. It took over 3 hours, it didn't even come out that great, and it cost me CHF 185. I'm not one to "reisist the culture" but this is ridiculous! Does anyone know of a place near Zug or the outskirts that I can get a pedicure for under CHF 50?

It's definitely more expensive to have a pedicure here. I have now found a small salon in Oberrieden where i get an excellent pedicure (still looks great weeks later) but it does cost 65CHF for pedicure plus 10CHF for the nail polish. That's a good 20CHF more than it would cost in London.
In terms of hair stylists, i have finally found a hairdressing salon which i think does a good cut, doesn't use toner when you have highlights and doesn't cost the earth...in fact it's actually cheaper than my hairdresser in London (a first for Switzerland!). That's Valentino's in Zug, opposite the Metalli Centre.

I just tried Classic Sun... what a great pedicure! 60CHF - still way more than I'm used to, but for switzerland, it's a great deal! I'll definitely be going back.
