KILLDEER, ND — Those seeking salon and wellness services no longer need to travel to larger cities. Babe Cave, a local business offering a variety of amenities including an oxygen bar, boutique items, and more, has recently moved to 750 Hovden Drive. “The whole goal was to have a health and wellness type spa,” said Owner Megan Fair.
“My goal is to try to offer, mainly women, more things to do for themselves here, without having to go to Bismarck or Dickinson.” Fair, a Nebraska native, relocated the business to her home for greater flexibility and to align operations with her vision. One notable addition to Babe Cave is the oxygen bar.
“They're super popular in California and the bigger cities,” Fair noted. “You're getting 90-95% oxygen from this machine, and you can pick your own aromas.” For those outside Killdeer, the oxygen bar is also available at vendor shows, and Fair plans to attend more in surrounding areas this year.
ADVERTISEMENT In addition to wellness services, Babe Cave features a boutique with seasonal items. “I kind of switch the styles up by season,” Fair explained. “We just got done with our rodeo season, so that was all our western wear, which we’ll probably still have, but then we'll start adding in your fall and Halloween stuff here soon.
” The boutique offers clothing, jewelry, accessories, and Killdeer Cowboys apparel. Fair’s favorite addition is European cosmetics, which she says “sells itself pretty much.” The boutique also provides spray tanning services, with plans to offer 24-hour tanning bed access in the future.
Fair hopes to expand services to include 24-hour red light therapy and highlights vibrotherapy, a service used for muscle recovery and strength enhancement. “Ten minutes of vibration therapy can complement traditional training by improving muscle strength and flexibility,” she said, though it is not a replacement for conventional exercise. Special occasion flowers are also available at Babe Cave on holidays like Valentine’s Day and Mother’s Day.
“I was just trying to add things to help offer our little town a little more than what we have,” Fair added. To make an appointment at Babe Cave, call 701-300-0652 or visit www.babecavespa.
