Beauty & Spas in Akron

Kellie, the tanning artist behind Glo To Go Customized Sunless Tanning, burnishes skin tones with high-quality airbrush tans customized to each individual's skin. Particles of DHA deepen the skin's hue to a golden brown without streaking or leaving behind orange splotches that falsely indicate a Cheetos addiction. Kellie recommends gently exfoliating skin before appointments and avoiding moisturizers, perfumes, and oils on the day of the session.

The aesthetician at Bright Organic Spa rejuvenates visages and physiques with myriad beautifying services that employ the restorative powers of organic ingredients, some sourced from some of the world's most exotic destinations.

Once scrubbed and shaped, feminine fingers take their pick of a rainbow of hues in OPI polish and chip-free Shellac, which remains as scratch-free as a lonesome velociraptor's back for up to two weeks.
