The Benefits of Taking Time for Yourself
Self-care is more than a trend — it’s essential. Here’s why.

It’s close enough to add on without reshuffling your whole trip, and quiet enough that it feels like a genuine change of pace once you arrive.
Spend your morning the way you normally would in Canggu — a swim, a walk along the beach, breakfast at a café of your choosing. There’s no need to rush this part; the idea is simply to leave enough time in the middle of the day to head toward Cemagi and Seseh, a scenic, relatively short drive along the coast from Canggu.
By midday, when the sun is highest and a lot of Canggu’s beach areas get more crowded and less comfortable, it’s a good moment to head to Hello Lash Lifting Bali on Jalan Pantai Seseh. A Lash Lift takes under an hour and leaves you with lifted, defined lashes for the rest of your trip — no mascara required for weeks. Book your slot ahead of time on Fresha so you know exactly when to arrive and can plan the rest of your afternoon around it.
Once your appointment is done, Seseh Beach is a short walk from the studio, and it’s a different experience from Canggu’s busier stretches — long, quiet, mostly uninterrupted sand. It’s a good spot to properly relax rather than navigate a crowd, whether that means another swim, a slow walk, or simply sitting with a drink from one of the beachfront warungs nearby.
If your schedule allows, staying through to sunset is worth it — Seseh’s coastline faces a clear, open horizon with far fewer people competing for the same view than you’d find further south. From there, it’s a straightforward drive back to Canggu, arriving in the evening with the rest of your trip’s plans untouched.
The point of this itinerary isn’t to pack more into your day — it’s to swap one crowded midday hour in Canggu for a calmer one in Seseh, with something to show for it afterward.
The drive between Canggu and Seseh is generally described as a scenic 30–45 minute drive depending on traffic and your exact starting point in Canggu, though this is only an approximate guide rather than a fixed travel time — always leave a little buffer, especially around midday traffic. There’s parking on site at the studio, so you don’t need to worry about where to leave a scooter or car once you arrive. If you’d rather not drive yourself, a private driver or ride-hailing app is a straightforward alternative — see our guide on getting to Seseh from Canggu, Seminyak and Uluwatu for more on the options.
This itinerary works just as well in reverse — a morning appointment followed by an afternoon in Canggu — so treat it as a loose framework rather than a fixed schedule, and adjust the order to suit whichever part of the day you’d rather spend at the beach.
If you’re travelling with friends or family who don’t all want a treatment, the itinerary still holds together easily — one or two people can step into an appointment while the rest of the group relaxes nearby or takes an early walk on Seseh Beach, with everyone meeting up again for the afternoon. Because the studio and the beach are close together, there’s no awkward gap where part of the group is stuck waiting with nothing to do.
None of this requires tight planning — the itinerary is meant to be a loose sequence you can stretch or compress depending on how the day is going, not a schedule to follow to the minute.
