Before Sunday
The work you do is invisible by design. The lunches packed before the kids notice. The calendar held in your head. The someone-everyone-calls-when-something-breaks. The hour you keep meaning to find for yourself but somehow never quite finds you.
This week we are thinking about all of it — the bio-moms and the adoptive moms, the step-moms, the grandmothers raising grandkids, the aunts and best friends and chosen-family figures who quietly do the mothering. Whoever you mother, however you got there, we see you.
An hour that is actually yours
A head spa hour is one of the very few hours in a week where nobody can ask you for anything. Phone in the bag. Lights low. Warm towel, gentle scalp massage, the kind of quiet you cannot really engineer at home. Sixty minutes where the only thing on your list is to stay there.
And it does not have to be Sunday. The week leading up to Mother's Day is wide open at our shop — a Thursday morning, a Friday afternoon, the quiet hour before school pickup. Some moms want the day itself; many would rather have the breathing room earlier or later in the week, when nobody is watching. Either is right.
If someone wants to give you the hour
For anyone reading this who wants to do something for the mom in their life: our Mother's Day Head Spa for Two is $230 all season (regularly $330), available any day through Monday, May 11. Sixty minutes for two people at the same appointment — sister, daughter, partner, best friend, anyone you would want to share the hour with. The Mother's Day page has the rest of the details.
And if you are the mom reading this and nobody has booked anything for you yet — book it for yourself. That counts too.
Whatever Sunday looks like for you, we hope it includes a moment that is just yours.
