Beauty & Spas in Emeryville

Splendid Skin Care's chief aesthetician channels lingering memories of an acne-prone adolescence into a service menu of gentle facials that focus on expunging and preventing blemishes. Expert beautifiers personalize coddling to individual concerns as spelled out by facial freckles, wielding powerful products from brands such as SkinCeuticals and Dermalogica and doling out tips for enhancing everyday skincare regimens. The aesthetes also wax and tint unseemly hair and soothe work-wearied exteriors with hand, foot, and body treatments.

Tucked behind a pink-and-white façade, Glama-Rama! Salon & Gallery's stylists bear down on outdated coifs with hair services amid potted orchids and gleefully crowded shelves. Scissors thrum through locks, and stylists stray from the norm by conducting consultations in Latin or delivering retro updos and dreadlocks with products from brands including Bumble and bumble and DevaCurl. Along the walls of the beauty haven, local artists parade masterpieces for discerning eyes. Peepers skip away to gaze at glossy hardwood floors, vintage-inspired mirrors, and styling stations washed in the soft, rosy hue of a ghost in the wrong restroom.

Equipped to address all facets of men's grooming, the experts at Details Barbershop pamper guests with fuzz-abolishing services. Before pulling out the clippers, scissors, or razors, the barbers consult with each customer to best accommodate their desired results. The skilled staff tames head and face sprouts with treatments including haircuts, beard trims, and traditional wet shaves, which leave faces smoother than a baby sting ray slicked in baby oil.

For 25 years, Ringolevio Salon’s stylists, aestheticians, and massage therapists have been reviving appearances and recharging spirits inside a clean and modern studio space. While stylists combine their creativity and skill to craft haircuts that range from classic to cutting-edge, colorists design brilliant new hair hues using all-vegan Pureology products. Aestheticians combat blemishes, acne, and age spots with classic European facials, oxygen-therapy facials, and glycolic-acid treatments, and even offer teeth whitening to ensure newly even complexions aren't diminished by yellowed grins. As for the massage therapists, they pander to tight muscles and tense minds with a host of modalities that includes hot stone and reflexology and will gladly customize an aromatherapy treatment based on the client's favorite scents and number of noses.

Roxanne Marie Ralph’s own sensitive skin was the starting point in her journey toward becoming a licensed aesthetician. She left her job as an investment banker and began Cloud Nine Skin and Body Care, where she’s worked to help others discover solutions for their unique skincare concerns for the last 18 years. Along with performing classic facials and chemical peels, she beautifies skin with microdermabrasions and face and décolletage masks. In addition to skincare, Roxanne offers waxing services, which are about not only removing unwanted hairs from brows but also shaping them to better reflect the client’s face shape, eyebrow personality, and favorite mathematical parabola.

With a specialty in long layers, modern texture, and natural curls, the staff at Times Salon caters to all noodle noggins with a range of unisex services. Cuts, color, smoothing treatments, perms, and more swiftly transform locks. Waxing services evict freeloading follicles from the root, and the salon's 15-year veteran in oriental threading removes unwanted strands using cotton thread and a high-end monocle. A range of other spa services pampers weary bodies, from facials to mani-pedis performed with the newest industry tools. All services take place in a brightly lit interior accented by white edging, earth-toned walls, and oversize mirrors that let clients keep tabs on their transformations.
