Clients receive personalized consultations to achieve their ideal look, whether classic or contemporary. With over 103 years of combined experience, our team guarantees satisfaction through skilled execution and ongoing education in the latest trends.
Aveda Color
Transform your hair with Aveda's plant-based color treatments that enhance natural tones while maintaining hair integrity. Services include full color, foils, and gray blending, performed by specialists trained in dimensional techniques. We offer customized options for vibrant fashion colors or subtle enhancements, ensuring long-lasting results. Our commitment to natural ingredients protects your hair's health while delivering salon-quality color that lasts.
Facials
Customized facials address individual skin concerns using Aveda's botanical treatments. Options include the Elemental Nature Facial for hydration, Botanical Skin Resurfacing for radiance, and Dual Exfoliation for texture improvement. Each treatment begins with a personalized consultation to determine your skin's needs, followed by targeted product application. These services promote healthy skin renewal while reducing signs of aging or environmental damage through plant-powered ingredients.
Massages
Our therapeutic and relaxation massages alleviate tension through techniques like deep tissue, cupping, and aromatherapy. Certified therapists tailor sessions to address chronic pain, stress, or prenatal needs, incorporating hot stone or chakra balancing add-ons. Each treatment promotes circulation, flexibility, and mental clarity in a serene environment. Regular sessions support overall wellness by reducing physical discomfort and enhancing emotional well-being.
Lash Extensions
Custom lash extensions create dramatic, natural-looking volume using classic, volume, or hybrid application methods. Our specialists apply synthetic lashes individually to enhance eye shape and depth. Services include full sets and maintenance fills, with options lasting 6-8 weeks. The process uses medical-grade adhesive for safety, ensuring comfort and longevity while maintaining your natural lash health through proper application techniques.
