Bibbidi - is there a "no gel" option with hair styling?

Are you serious? I was told by my TA that my DD8 wouldn't be able to do anything but BBB until she was 13.

Yes. A TA with wrong info (LOL- never happens right??)!! It is adorable. You have to sign up onboard AT THE SPA. It is usually held in conjunction with the sail away party, so you may have to make a choice. Check the Navigator (or go direct to the spa) first thing when you board for times.

You don't know how happy I am to hear this!! My DD will be 10 and I REALLY wanted to get her a pedicure as a special treat for running her first 5K the day before! I hope they have the special on our sailing!

She will LOVE IT!!! They give them Ice cream too (not that you can't get that anywhere else aboard!! LOL!). I wish I could remember the price...

Does someone remember??? Thinking $65? My husband laughs because I never pay attention to these things.

View attachment 97173 My DH had it done at DisneyWorld and loved it. She didn't complain at all (was 5 at the time) and the gel washes out really easily.

WHAT A BEAUTY!!!! Love the pic!

I was surprised to learn the same last week. We did the spa tour with DD on the magic last week and they tried to get me to sign her up for services. I said she has few more years to go before she could (she'll be 5 in July) and they told me that there were special times for services for children under 13.

Also, the fairy godmothers in training are NOT beauticians - they are trained on the menu of looks offered, not freestyling. That allows the looks to be consistent across the board.

This, exactly. The Fairy Godmothers In Training are not licensed as beauticians, so they can only do those options listed. If changes are coming, you can believe one of those changes is that it will cost even more.

Thanks!! I will I'm wondering if once we board & go to conceirge lounge they could get us a time too. I know my DD she will skip the sail away party.

Yes, we have done the ice cream pedi twice now, at ages 7 and 8. We never knew it existed until we passed by the spa and they had the treatment advertised on a sandwich board of sorts in the spa lobby. The second time, it wasn't advertised at all; I just went to the spa desk and asked to book an ice cream pedi for my daughter and they happily accommodated.

$65 seems a little high, maybe? I seem to remember it being closer to $45. Perhaps the price is variable based on demand.

Also, both times, we booked during a sea day, not during the sail-away party.
