A "typical" (common; normal) spa has many different types of employees who work together to create a "luxurious" (beautiful, comfortable, relaxing) pampering experience for their "clients" (customers). Some clients might work with only one of these employees, but other clients who come in for a "total" (complete) "makeover" (a transformation to change one's physical appearance) might work with almost all of them.

A "hairstylist" helps the client get his or her hair to "look its best" (be as beautiful as possible). The hairstylist "shampoos" (washes), cuts, dries, and "styles" (gives shape to) the hair. A hairstylist might also color the hair or add "highlights" (color added to small sections of hair), although this might also "fall to" (be the responsibility of) a "hair colorist," depending on the size of the spa.

A "manicurist" specializes in providing manicures and pedicures. A "hair removal specialist" or "hair removal technician" is an expert in waxing, helping people remove unwanted body hair. Some larger spas might have a hair removal specialist who provides "permanent" (forever; not temporary) hair removal services through the use of a "laser" (strong light) or another technology.

A "masseuse" is someone who specializes in giving different kinds of massages. A masseuse might work closely with an "aroma therapist" who uses different "aromas" (odors; smells) to help the client reach different goals, such as relaxing or thinking more clearly.

Finally, a "makeup artist" applies "makeup" (colors painted on the face) for the clients. Makeup artists also offer lessons in makeup "application" (techniques for putting on makeup) so that clients can learn to create the same "look" (physical appearance) at home.
