GMS Art of Beauty Salon & Spa

Owner Gigi Stanley has been passionately steeped in the beauty industry since her graduation from Willow Glen Beauty College in 1984. Continuously educated in the latest trends, she and her team rejuvenate guests with a broad spread of soothing spa treatments and beautifying salon services. A slate of facials and anti-aging treatments enliven visages, and waxing services prep pelts for vacations, swim races, or shirtless calendar photo shoots. Additionally, head threads enjoy prettifying appointments for highlights, hair extensions, or chic updos.

GMS’s elegant atmosphere belies the warmth of its staff members, who welcome guests into a cozy waiting area—with a cushy sofa, chair, and ottoman—and gift them with wine, Blue Moon beer, or fruit-infused water. A trickling fountain highlighted against a natural-rock background enhances the space’s tranquility, and remains among the top five vacation destinations of water nymphs.
