Dulcenae is a new address in Paris. This beauty salon, nestled in the capital's 9th arrondissement, has opened its doors for a noble cause: to enable everyone to enjoy a wellness getaway. And when we say everyone, we mean REALLY everyone.
Because until now, certain profiles couldn't fully enjoy a salon treatment. People with damaged skin, undergoing heavy treatment or with motor disabilities, for example. Dulcenae has taken the necessary steps to offer a quality service, overcoming all the usual obstacles and more. Because this institute takes into account all your physical, mental and social characteristics. And that makes all the difference!
That's right, treatments here are provided by socio-aestheticians. These professionals have undergone an extra year's training and worked in the hospital environment, which gives their profession a completely different approach, and it shows. What's more, this also enables them to adapt to all profiles. In the same way, Dulcenae is an over-equipped institute, so that everyone can enjoy the very best in comfort. The massage mattresses, for example, can accommodate even very tall people (no more protruding feet!), everything is wheelchair-accessible, and the cabins even have a wig rest.
To get to this institute like no other, head for the Haussmann district of Paris. In the midst of the hustle and bustle of the department stores, a pretty courtyard stands out as a haven of peace. This is where Dulcenae nestles. And when you step inside, you find yourself in a veritable cocoon of softness. The friendly team invites you to make yourself at home.
Every element contributes to this friendly atmosphere. The institute is laid out like a warm apartment, reinforcing the feeling of being at home. This comforting ambience follows you into the cabin, where the magic happens. Dulcenae's specialty is its hyper-personalized treatments. This is a far cry from factory-like beauty salons, where the same protocols are applied to every customer.
Each treatment begins with an exchange with thebeautician. During this exchange, you are invited to confide in her, both physically and emotionally, so that she can identify your needs as accurately as possible. For our part, we tested a facial with Julie Le Touche. This gentle young woman demonstrates the importance of human qualities in her profession. A true enthusiast, she quickly establishes a bond of trust.
We then settle down on the heated mattress and are soon lulled to sleep by the playlist we've chosen, while our make-up is gently removed. Julie then meticulously applies the treatment ritual, and during breaks, massages body parts according to the indications given during our chat.
For us, she works to relieve pain in the trapezius muscles. With a cranial massage, she relieves us of our worries, and by applying herself to our hands, she brings us real comfort. This moment makes us realize how human contact brings a new dimension to the art of well-being. At no time are we abandoned; every second is devoted to us, and it's a real pleasure!
This principle is applied to every service. If you choose a 30-minute waxing session for one or two areas, we won't let you go once the treatment is over, using the remaining time to massage the desired areas. And for those in a hurry, we also offer 15-minute express treatments.
Dulcenae is as rigorous about the quality of its services as it is about the products it uses. For skincare, they have turned to the Comfort Zone brand, which bans harmful substances from its ranges and relies on medical and scientific studies to develop its products. For make-up and manicures, the institute has chosen to work with Eye Care, a specialist in high-tolerance skincare and make-up products for even the most sensitive skin.
And if you'd like to continue the experience at home, we invite you to visit the dining room, where you can take the time to discover all the products on sale, while benefiting from invaluable advice. Note that this same location regularly hosts workshops, which are announced on their website and Facebook page. A business to keep an eye on!
