Beauty & Spas in Brandermill

The aestheticians and nail techs at Natural Nail Care Clinic use Swiss product line Mavala in all beauty services, including skin analysis, facial waxing, and nail services. The line has been used throughout the globe for more than 50 years due to its superior quality, which arises from extensive scientific research within Mavala’s own laboratories. In addition, professional Essie polish coats nude finger- and toenails during manicures and pedicures. Clients perch on high chairs at a sweeping nail bar for manicures, and lounge on an expansive dove-gray booth for pedicures and honing their glamorous fainting skills.

There once was a time where the only way to get a gilded glow was to expose skin to harmful UV rays. Thanks to advances in spray-tan technology, the staff members at Bronze Ambition Custom Airbrush Tanning have honed their skills at the safe, effective alternative—sunless tanning. These trained professionals use the top-of-the-line South Seas solution, which coats the skin with a customized hue tailored to each client's individual skin tone. The result is a tan that looks natural and lasts for up to 10 days. A trip to Bronze Ambition goes by as quickly as the time Einstein took his SATs, as the application of formula can take as little as five minutes.

The staff at Hawaiian Bronze makes sure that clients use the right bed and products for their skin with a level of care that hasn't gone unnoticed. Playboy and Maxim model Nikki Cantell, an occasional customer, says, "I love Hawaiian Bronze, I've tried so many salons over the years and all I did was burn. At HB, they clearly use top-of-the-line machines and offer the best lotions for my sensitive skin."

The salon's collection of beds includes lie-down and standup units, tanning contraptions just for the legs or face, and a powerful 360-degree Italian-made model. Airbrush artists spritz on natural-looking hues in less than three minutes, and red light therapy stimulates skin to produce natural smoothing collagen. Infrared body wraps also help get bodies ready for trips to the beach or attempts to climb through silhouette-shaped holes in the wall from high school.
