SEX AND THE HUBBY: 'Not fair to equate spas with brothels'
SEX AND THE HUBBY: 'Not fair to equate spas with brothels'
2009/12/06
DATIN RAMONA SULEIMAN, Kuala Lumpur
ACCORDING to the article, "middle and upper-income earners go to spas and health clubs where women (sex workers) of different nationalities are available".
As president of the Association of Malaysian Spas, I would like to say that it is not fair to equate spas with brothels.
The multi-billion dollar spa industry is part of the wellness movement worldwide.
Spas have become an important part of the hospitality, travel and leisure industry that is growing rapidly all over the world.
The industry offers tremendous job prospects, including in Malaysia.
Directors in world-class spas earn five figure salaries!
Ivy league universities are now offering degrees in spa management. Professionals are switching to the spa industry from other fields.
But, the industry continues to be misunderstood. Equating spas to brothels is unfair to the many professionals who are dedicated to the industry.

Anti-ageing iPhone apps to be released in January
Anti-ageing iPhone apps to be released in January
A new application for the iPhone meant to help against wrinkles, cellulite and even hair loss will be released early next year.
Danny Salomon, vice president at United Holdings Group, has developed the dubious "AntiAgeingApp", which will sell at US$2.99 (RM10.20) on iTunes and is currently causing debate on the internet.
The new application will use colour, light and sound therapy to "heal" wrinkles, acne, and cellulite and even stimulate hair growth.
"The healing strategy makes use of the wavelengths of light and sound in order to stimulate the body’s natural defence
systems," reads an explanation by the developing team on tech site Network World. "When those cells get energised, they produce collagen and elastin. The result will be firmer and rejuvenated skin tone, and improved circulation."
Ten more applications, for US$0.99 (RM3.40) each, will be launched for individual "treatments".
Colour, light and sound therapies are commonly offered by spas and other practices as ageing remedies – their real effect however, just as for many other miracle wrinkle-reversal cures, remains to be proven. – AFP Relaxnews

Men to drive Chinese beauty industry
Men to drive Chinese beauty industry
Shanghai-based research firm Ifop Asia said Nov 24 that sales of men’s skincare products were expected to grow by more than a quarter this year.
Researchers also said that next year, China’s total sales of men’s skincare products will rise to US$570 million (RM1.94 billion).
"In the foreseeable future, men will be the source of the next growth in the Chinese skincare market," they stated, adding that "men realise that good looks will help in various aspects of their personal and professional life".
While the skincare trend is far from gripping the mainstream, the trend analysts think that a "small group of men emerges with a less traditional and more sexually appealing male image", as opposed to the clichéd "conservative, introverted, less masculine" conceptions of Chinese men.
A quick search on beauty retailer Sephora’s Chinese website confirms that it is indeed skincare that’s topping men’s bestseller rankings: gf’s creams and lotions dominate, followed by other skincare by French brands such as Dior or American brands like Clinique, while other products such as fragrances or beauty tools are lacking from the list.
Ifop’s findings conclude that local men are increasingly discovering their "metrosexual" side. A spokesman for Shiseido said: "Men are becoming more interested in making themselves beautiful, and they are buying cosmetics, paying attention to their hair and overall grooming." – AFP Relaxnews
