We men need a little bit of a pampering now and then, but there is no term more feared by most guys than the word ‘spa’. That’s starting to change.
As male-only spas are growing in popularity, many are finding their way into the weekly routine of Muscat men. Manicures, pedicures, and facials, once thought of as too feminine for us dudes, now require advanced booking at these male-centric centres. Gone are the days of masculinity being associated with dirty fingernails and unkempt hair, so welcome the era of the well-cared-for gentlemen with a visit to one of these spas.
