Billed as “a pampering retreat for girls,” Spa’ Ladi-da! is a spa
designed for girls ages 7 to 14, so naturally hot pink, lime green and
other bright colors adorn the walls of this tween-focused store. Young
clients can be found dancing to hip-hop, top 40, inspirational and other
age-appropriate music videos that play nonstop. After getting their
makeovers or manicures, the girls can relax on oversized beanbags, sip
tasty drinks and munch on healthy foods.
Spa’ Ladi-da! is the brainchild of Detra Jones, a Charlotte,
NC-area mother of two girls, who came up with the idea more than a year
before the store’s grand opening last October. “My daughters were 10 and
12 at the time,” she says. “When I went to get my nails done, sometimes
they came with me. But I realized there wasn’t a place designed for
them.” She thought that there ought to be such a place.
Jones shared her idea with her husband, Victor, who immediately
knew his wife had hit on something. “For me, it was a no-brainer,” says
Victor. “I knew it was something that my girls would love,” he says.
