The Slow is a beauty salon on level 2 at 98 Victoria Avenue in Durie Hill, Whanganui, rated 5.0 on Google from 46 reviews. It works by appointment only and offers organic and natural facials, massage and facial needling, with set days from Tuesday to Friday.
Organic and natural skincare appeals to people with sensitive skin, but plant-based products can still cause reactions, so do a patch test before a new product goes on. Ask the therapist about ingredients if you avoid certain fragrances or oils. Facial needling works best as a course, with a rest between sessions.
For Durie Hill and Whanganui locals who want a calm, natural facial or a massage without a rush, The Slow on Victoria Avenue is worth booking ahead.
