Services
Hair Styling
Our stylists specialize in precision cuts, blowouts, and creative styles tailored to your face shape and lifestyle. Using premium tools and products like the Amika Blow Dryer Brush, we ensure long-lasting volume and smoothness. Whether you desire a classic bob or modern textured look, our team delivers results that enhance your natural beauty while maintaining hair health.
Balayage
Hand-painted balayage techniques create sun-kissed, low-maintenance highlights that grow out naturally. Our colorists use ammonia-free formulas to minimize damage while achieving dimensional, vibrant tones. Starting at $136, this service includes a consultation to match shades to your skin tone and lifestyle, ensuring a personalized, radiant finish.
Facials
Custom facials address concerns like aging, acne, or dullness using professional-grade products. The Signature Facial ($150) includes deep cleansing, exfoliation, and hydration, while the Anti-Aging Facial ($115) targets fine lines with collagen-boosting treatments. All facials are tailored to your skin type for visible, lasting results.
Nails
From classic manicures ($25) to no-chip polish ($44) and paraffin wax treatments ($10), our nail services prioritize durability and elegance. Gel polish upgrades ($23) offer chip-resistant color lasting weeks. Pedicures ($52) include callus care and a relaxing foot massage, ensuring polished, pampered hands and feet.
Eyelash Extensions
Customize your look with classic, volume, or hybrid lash extensions. Full sets start at $160 for classic styles, while volume extensions ($220) add dramatic fullness. Fills maintain lash appearance between visits. Our technicians use hypoallergenic adhesives for safe, natural-looking enhancement that accentuates your eyes.
