Castlewood, CO Beauty and Salons

In the winter, the air sucks moisture from your hair and scalp and converts that moisture into snow. Recapture your dome's moisture and beautify your frizzied mane with today's side deal to Becky Houghton Studio. For $18, women and young adult women (ages 13–18) get a shampoo, haircut, and blow dry (a $50 value for women, $30 for young adults); men and young adult men get a shampoo, cut, and style (a $35 value for men, $25 for young adults); and kids (ages 5–12) get two shampoos and cuts (a $50 value).

Like the receipts, crumbs, pennies, and lint that linger in the depths of your purse, dead skin cells and dirt can clog your pores and form a dingy mask over your own beautiful mug. Today's side deal dumps your face purse upside down, shakes out the crumbs, and vacuums it up. For $47, you’ll get a $95 resurfacing skin peel at Lone Tree Facial Plastic & Cosmetic Surgery Center, run by the highly experienced Dr. Rick Schaler. After a brief consultation, medical skincare specialists will determine the ideal peel for your needs. Removal of the top layer of skin helps to increase cell turnover, bringing more vibrant skin cells to the surface. Some peels result in rapid recovery, allowing you to resume regular makeup routines and activities; others may have a more intense effect. Your specialist will evaluate your skin and advise you on a peel so you know what to expect from your service. The revamped Park Meadows shopping center location features airy waiting rooms and friendly service.

Hair guru Christopher Kellams founded The Loft Hair Studio after graduating from Dynamics Hair Academy and training at Dallas’s Tony and Guy Academy. Kellams has stratified his team of stylists into four experience levels, keeping each up to date on modern haircare techniques through continuing-education classes. Stylists tailor hairdos to suit clients' face shape, their hair texture, and the size of the sombrero they refuse to remove. During an appointment, clients are free to sip complimentary glasses of wine and other beverages.

After beginning to adopt more environmentally conscious practices in their personal lives, hairstylists Joy and Jeremy realized how hard the salon atmosphere could be on Mother Nature and set out to open their own eco-friendly salon. Their salon's open floor plan, organized into chic styling stations and suffused in natural light from numerous surrounding windows, highlights bright modern salon furniture, all of which is reused. In addition to the décor, their green reach expands to the salon's all-natural styling products and energy-efficient, retractable blow dryers, which dangle from the ceiling like a paratrooper after a poorly executed landing. Their resident aestheticians, nail techs, and massage therapists dole out the salon's expansive menu of services, pampering clients with custom facials, head-to-toe waxing treatments, and relaxing mani-pedis.

Whether it's a manicure in advance of a big date or a pedicure that caps off a "me day" at the spa, Gina has seen it all. With more 25 years of experience as a nail technician, three years as an OPI educator, and a stint as the owner of her own successful salon, she beautifies fingers and toes with treatments ranging from traditional mani-pedis to treatments involving acrylic add-ons and shellac polish.
