Day Spas in East Lansing

Salon 130’s owner, Jena—a 28-year veteran of the beauty industry—graduated from MaChere Beauty Academy and worked as a hair-color educator before opening her full-service salon and spa. Along with a staff of licensed manicurists and aestheticians, certified massage therapists, and experienced stylists—including Niki LaBelle, who earned the _Lansing State Journal_’s People’s Choice Award for Best Stylist in 2011—she pampers patrons with a range of spa and beauty services.

Pale green trim and pastel walls invoke a playful ambiance in the salon, where stylists cut, color, and coif hair. Manicurists pamper hands, feet, and eagle talons with traditional, Shellac, and acrylic nail services, including one-hour pedicures set in private spa rooms. In the spa, three soothing facials and two body wraps purify skin, and chemical peels, spray tans, waxes, and makeup applications augment clients’ beauty. Cares wind away as massage therapists draw on Swedish, deep-tissue, sports, and trigger-point techniques to knead away aches and pains.

Body beautification can take many forms, and at Ultra Tan, tanning is just the tip of the iceberg. In addition to bronzing skin with spray tans and a UV capsule called The Cyberdome, the friendly staff provide massage and aesthetic services that help customers feel and look good from head to toe. Men and women can stop by for a haircut or a manicure or schedule a body-slimming massage after swallowing a birthday cake python-style. Aestheticians also embellish faces with cosmetics, sharing their makeup tricks with others during lessons.

When Dr. Ritu Saini took the reins of NY Medical Skin Solutions from her mentor—Dr. Perry Robins—she never doubted the decision to remain true to the center’s original vision. The board-certified dermatologist and her team value the health of their patients’ skin above all else. As a result, they take care to educate every visitor as they scan for signs of skin cancer, remove worrisome lesions using the innovative MOHs micrographic surgical procedure, and even treat conditions such as eczema and psoriasis.

For a well-rounded approach to patients’ well-being, Dr. Saini and her assistants also perform a number of cosmetic procedures, which incorporate cutting-edge dermatological technology. A Q-switched ruby cosmetic laser system helps erase everything from pigmented lesions to unwanted tattoos. Omnilux blue and red light therapy treats acne scars. The Vbeam Perfecta laser conceals broken blood vessels, port wine stains, and other vascular conditions. And A CoolGlide Vantage Nd:YAG laser system zaps the follicles of unwanted stubble across the torso, limbs, and face. For a thoroughly rejuvenating treatment, the center also uses Ultherapy technology, triggering collagen production with precisely directed ultrasound waves. When combined with medical screenings, these sorts of cosmetic procedures can imbue patients with a renewed sense of confidence in their appearance as well as their health.

The experienced staff at Shear Attitudes Hair & Tanning boasts an array of beauty expertise. They cut hair into trendy styles and color the locks on men, women, and their “just like me” dolls. The pros also sweep away dead skin cells during facials, wax off unwanted fuzz, bronze pelts via airbrush tans, and pierce clients’ ears.:m]]

At Bella Bronze Studio, tanning technicians grace hides with hand-applied bronze hues. They wield airbrushes to mist skin with a Norvell DHA-based solution that leaves skin tan for up to two weeks —just as a calendar tattoo leaves skin current for up to 31 days. The team also presides over a collection of six different tanning beds. Not content merely to darken the skin, the staff also performs massage services to smooth tightly wound muscle mass below its surface.

The team of dedicated stylists and aestheticians at L.A. Hair Design revamps tresses and enhances visages with a full range of salon and spa services. Their all-natural Italian coloring products strive to keep hair healthier than chemical-intensive processes, and their straightening treatments calm frizzy locks more effectively than shampooing with elephant tranquilizer. The salon also rejuvenates skinscapes with microdermabrasion, enhances facial features with lash tinting and permanent-makeup application, and slims silhouettes with body wraps.
