Beauty & Spas in Archdale

Under the medical direction of Riki Collins, PA-C, Premier Med Spa and Laser Center's skincare experts launch visitors toward their aesthetic goals with a menu of services that make recipients look and feel rejuvenated. Chemical peels, laser hair and vein removal, and soothing facials highlight the center's selection of beauty-boosting treatments, while customized massages and serenades by Barry White's stunt double help clients reach cloud nine. Premier's modern, private, and serene setting sets guests at ease, and trusted products by Neova, and Botox Cosmetic render human exteriors as shiny as the day they left the assembly line.

Esthetic Director Joyce Darr considers her clients' needs her number-one priority, setting an example for the rest of her aesthetic team. Darr shares her expertise as a licensed aesthetician, certified reflexologist, and reiki master teacher to help clients practice healthier lifestyles through a range of services. The staff employs professional products to rejuvenate and soften skin during facials. They also master technology-based treatments including LED light therapy and ultrasound facials to beautify clients and their loyal robot butlers. The Skin Care Center hosts an oncology skincare clinic that provides complimentary services to help alleviate physical and emotional stress for clients undergoing cancer treatments.

To Susan Brooks—a 19-year health-industry veteran—the weight-loss services she provides at NuBody are not about aesthetics or vanity. She strives to educate, encourage, and motivate her clients toward healthier lives. With the help of licensed dietitian and nutritionist Jan Johnson, she chases off unwanted inches and evens out skin dimpled by cellulite using body wraps and noninvasive NuLazer Curve Advanced and NuLazer Lipo treatments. Their FDA-approved NuCell-u-Smooth system strives to remove pockets of stubborn fat and cellulite with heat and vacuum suction, whereas their weight-loss program makes use of regular weigh-ins, weekly tips, and ongoing emotional support.

Though NuBody's staffers focus on the healthy function of bodily machines, they also tend to exteriors. Microdermabrasion, botanical peels, and facials repair damaged skin and set complexions glowing, and waxing services remove unwanted hair from eyebrows, bikini lines, and pet yetis that need to pose as humans to fool suspicious neighbors.

Whether a simple bob or a layered maze of curls, no hairdo presents too steep a challenge for the 11 stylists at Looks Salon, who crop hair with techniques gleaned over many years of experience. Emerald-framed mirrors glint in the salon's warm light, casting a glow on hair as it takes on fetching styles courtesy of professional products from Redken, Crew, Paul Mitchell, and others. An online lookbook provides style inspiration prior to appointments with a slideshow of impeccably groomed celebrities and expressionistic paint drips. Across the salon, waxing and nail technicians help clients keep brows and cuticles in line, and specialized bridal services ensure memorable wedding days.

Within a salon steeped in earth tones—from the dark-brown walls and tan floors to the plush beige chairs—Amanda Walker plies her trade. At work stations adorned with wooden chests of drawers and mirrors accented by metal latticework, she styles women’s, men’s, and children’s hair, extending her expertise to colors and highlights, tackling virtually any service other than defanging Gorgons’ braids of snakes.

Cozy Toes Nail Spa's meticulous nail technician boasts more than 14 years in the industry. The salon features pipeless pedicure chairs and popular products such as Opi nail polish and CND Shellac's long-lasting gel formula.
