Beauty & Spas in Bellaire

Aestheticians at Norris of Houston's full-service spa refresh dull cheeks and perk up weary-looking eyes with a 60-minute anti-aging facial. Gentle hands drench dry pores with a seaweed-fortified formula that plumps slack cells and soothes them with water-lily and willowherb extracts. A layer of essential fatty acids squeezed from sunflowers, sesame seeds, and almonds will pack in the fresh layer of dew as bearberry essence combats skin discoloration and aims to lighten complexions and even tone. Next, mineral building blocks such as calcium and A and B vitamins will seep into the dermal layer to create youthful, glowing skin that will shimmer like the surface of a lake at twilight, but without skinny-dipping lovebirds constantly frolicking in it.

At Just Wax It, the technological advances of a med spa marry the rejuvenating and beautifying traditions of a classic spa. Founded by master waxer Mendy Moses, the relaxation haven has hung its smooth, bristle-free hat on its waxing specialties, rendering flawless bodyscapes with a pain-reducing grade of brazilian blue wax. In a short time, such services have earned the spa accolades, including a finalist slot in Citysearch’s 2010 Best Bikini Wax poll. Yet beyond rendering smooth skin, the spa has a broad spectrum of treatments, pampering guests with mani-pedis, body wraps, and facials that nourish complexions with vitamin-rich serums and masks customized to treat each face's distinct issues and resemble its favorite superhero.

With a board-certified plastic surgeon as its medical director, the skin spa harnesses the latest tools in medical and cosmetic technology. Fillers such as Botox and Juvéderm smooth wrinkles lining the eyes and lips or help lift brows for more youthful appearances. Aestheticians can also use the precise power of lasers for anti-aging services or vein removal, and nonsurgical liposuction with CoolSculpting can target hard-to-exercise areas around the waistline.

Top hats, prepare to doff. Gentlemen's Tonic provides rich and relaxing hair and grooming services to men in an upscale, masculine setting. The name refers to the strengthening and invigorating properties of tonic in a venue that caters exclusively to males, even though it was built by Houston's only all-female construction team, Sisters with Earth-moving Power. The company began in London, where the male-grooming experts have received tons of press coverage. The Houston establishment, featured in Modern Luxury and the Houston Chronicle, is the first location in the United States of America.

Craft Salon’s lead tress-tamer, Cara Crafton, leads a team of stylists in resculpting, rejuvenating, and recoloring locks to rekindle hair-owners’ love for their 'dos. During the haircut, scissors hum the high-pitched tune of metal on metal as they shear tattered ends and sharpen each strand's sense of hearing. The Kerastase conditioning treatment fights daily damage, punching straight to the follicle and soaking the full length of every strand in restorative compounds. Customers then choose between a full head of color or a partial highlight that traps the sun’s glow within select fibers. After coloring treatments, a toner application protects manes from turning brassy.
