Slowly Stretching towards Personal Care Services


After floating around aimlessly in the sea of summer like Botticelli's Venus, Soft Shell invites you back to personal services and relaxation.

We hope you are thoughtfully and carefully enjoying this unusual climate as Petaluma and surrounding areas warm up to life again. Around us, restaurants are tiptoeing to open doors and outdoor seating with encroachment permits. Hair Salons are tinting, painting and cutting hair. Lions and Tigers Salon is clipping and sparkling kids into cuteness. Barbers are lightening up the undergrowth. Our toes and fingers are getting some smoothing and polish. A bit of live music is warming up the night air. Upright bass, guitars, and the occasional drum set awaken our ears. Copperfield's is open for pick up and shopping for a new reading selection for a physical binding and new perspectives. And we are shopping downtown for recycled and ethical clothing, new jewelry and art to decorate our homes. And.....sorry for the delayed announcement.....yes, Soft Shell is slowly and softly opening for retail and personal services: massage therapy, facials, and waxing and Bare minerals makeup sales.

It is with caution and care that we are screening all our returning clients. We have limited availability but we are here for you. It may take a few steps forward and backward to do life again but for now we are masked up with simple and fashionable responses to protecting the air that you breathe. All clients are asked to use hand sanitizer when arriving and before leaving. We are taking body temperatures of ourselves every morning before shifts start and our clients as they arrive. Our new intake forms will help us stay in touch with you and help us deliver the best services we can. We have protective gear for our service providers and thoughtful avenues for sensitive clients.

We continue to help you with curbside options if you are keeping your distance. Our new online store is helpful if you want to peruse and order there or you can use it to help point us in the right direction for reorders and themes for thoughtful gifts. You can come in and shop during our new hours, 10-5 Monday-Sunday. We have all the amazing aromatherapy, soaps, bubble bath, incense skincare for spa themes at home or Bare Minerals Makeup for beautifying for video chats. After rearranging our store and creating space for visitors and clients to pass through, we can say that the easiest way to ask about appointments or have help with orders, text us at 707-782-2170 if you can't get through on our phone lines. Thank you so much for hanging in there with us. Enjoy your weekend but stay safe too! And thank you for voting us The Best Day Spa 2020 in the Argus Courier Best of Petaluma!!! The SOFT SHELL TEAM
