Silhouettes Salon

Light streams through floor-to-ceiling windows inside the aptly-named Silhouettes By The Beach, a beauty emporium located steps away from the sparkling waves of Ventura Harbor. During hair appointments, clients lounge in squared-off, custom-made purple chairs lined up in front of head-to-toe mirrors. These reflect stylists as they snip split ends, attach extensions, or coat strands in protein treatments—good for locks that lift a lot of weights.

Elsewhere in the soothing confines, the salon’s manicure stations boast OPI nail lacquer that blankets fingernails and toenails with bright pops of color. Aestheticians perform custom facial treatments capped off with soothing massages of the neck, arms, hands, and face, and massage therapists use Swedish techniques to banish tension throughout the body.
