Apple Valley, CA Beauty and Salons

Jabez's staff of professional stylists studies at the Bumble and bumble University in New York City to equip themselves with the most artful and effective tress-taming techniques. The shaggy strands of men's manes surrender to unyielding, razor-edged scissors with a men's haircut, which mellows unruly mops or trims rebellious follicles into a well-kept whole. Clients possessing dual x chromosomes indulge in a women's haircut, relaxing in the high-ceilinged, naturally-lit salon while a professional hair sculptor shears, blow-dries, and shapes follicle sprouts into a face-framing curtain of pure glossiness. Both men and women celebrate the reformation of unruly locks with a scalp massage and a tension-relieving head rub to spoil the skull or ease residual soreness from the competitive ear-wiggling semifinals.

Wild Earth's sugaring treatment uses a soft, all-natural, sugar-based paste that adheres just to hair, and because this paste is gently patted onto the skin and peeled off in the direction of hair growth, it's substantially less uncomfortable than traditional waxing. It's also more effective because fewer hairs break in the process and are therefore removed completely from their follicle foxholes. Wild Earth's sugaring mix is body temperature—not scalding hot—and completely sanitary.

The beautiful spa environment at Orchard Nails, which features wood paneling, dusky blue and brown walls, and carefully arranged flowers, is immediately relaxing. Sit back and let a friendly technician equip your opposable knuckle sticks with shiny new finger helmets worthy of a Costanza hand model. Put your hands where a member of the skilled staff can see them, and you'll be rewarded with a neat nail trimming of finger and toenails. Perfectly symmetrical tips will take the place of former unruly edges. Cockney cuticles will be gently groomed like Eliza Doolittle until they appear perfectly civilized. All mani-pedis also include a reflexology massage, soothing hot-towel treatment, and polish.

The OC Tan brings the sparkling soulshine lingering within each customer to the surface through a variety of tanning services. The Elixir tanning bed ($20 per session) envelops tanners in 51 body bulbs—one for each U.S. state—for 12 minutes of air-conditioned tanning. Disappear into the Mystic Tan spray booth ($35) as a pale newspaper reporter and emerge 60 seconds later as Supertan, the poorly named hero with a healthy glow. For those who love the taste of tanning bulbs but hate the sound of laying down, the Solarforce 652V ($20) offers a 10-minute tan in a stand-up unit that can accommodate clients up to seven feet tall. The ultimate in tan architecture at The OC Tan, however, is the King 420 bed ($40), which combines aromatherapy, aquatherapy, and a non-claustrophobic design into 12 minutes of high-pressure tanning. A five-minute airbrush tan is also available ($55), with custom application and results lasting up to a week.

The Frame's pale-pink-and-teal walls paired with vintage furnishings craft a homey atmosphere, perfect for cozying up and relaxing while a skilled stylist transforms threadbare hair into silkier strands. A color-glossing treatment coats headsnakes in the coveted Redken Shades Crystal Clear serum to create whisper-soft tendrils with a healthy and glamorous sheen. In addition to conditioning coifs and dressing follicles in microscopic tiaras, Redken Shades also works diligently to seal hair cuticles in place. The artful snippers at The Frame will also tailor a haircut to their guests’ highest aesthetic standards, shaping their moptops according to their requests and recent trends. For those interested in shifting the tonality of hair without having to dive into a pile of red pistachios, full color runs at $85, partial highlights chime in at $65, and full highlights at $95—all reduced by 30% if completed during the same appointment as your Groupon.
