Can you wear clothes in a spa?
Wear Non-Restrictive Clothes Choosing loose-fitting and comfortable clothing is key for a relaxing spa experience. Look for clothes that allow for easy movement and offer comfort. Most spas want you to be comfortable and relaxed, so arrive wearing loose, comfortable clothing like gym clothes, yoga pants and t-shirts. Once you are changed, you’ll be spending most of your time in a robe anyway!Many spas offer a robe for you to wear during your visit. Some may charge a rental fee or request a returnable deposit. If you book a spa package, this should be listed as an inclusion. If in doubt, contact us or the spa ahead of your visit to make sure.Underwear: Most spas provide robes and towels, but you’ll still want to wear underwear underneath. Opt for comfortable, breathable options like sports bras and briefs.For private hot tubs, wear comfortable and functional swimwear of your choice. Public and communal spas often require swimwear that aligns with hygiene guidelines—this means no non-swimwear clothing or heavily decorated garments.
Do you have to take your clothes off for a spa day?
This depends on what treatments you have booked and the facilities you would like to use. In general, you should wear either swimwear or underwear. If your booked treatment requires full or partial nudity, you will be given time to undress before the treatment starts. I usually recommend wearing a t-shirt and yoga pants/sweatpants/shorts. It’s common to be barefoot during the session, but if you prefer socks, you’re free to leave socks on, or I have some for you to borrow if your feet get cold. And always feel free to ask for a blanket!

A good tip is also to avoid poking and prodding your skin or nails in the days leading up to a treatment, as it may interfere with the technician’s services. If you’ve booked any exfoliation treatments, do not shave less than 24 hours or more before your appointment. Should I shave before my spa service(s)? We recommend allowing several hours between shaving and receiving any service that involves an exfoliation (body services, scrubs, facial) to decrease the risk of skin irritation or discomfort.
