Beauty & Spas in Espanola

The teeth-whitening technicians at Smile White Now Teeth Whitening Salon bring bling to biters with in-office and take-home whitening services. Devoted to safe, effective treatments, the salon formulates their carbamide-peroxide gel from ingredients made in the United States, eschewing the potentially hazardous ingredients imported from Krypton. Amid the salon's salmon and cerulean walls, iBrite chair-side LED lamps, activate the gel to whiten teeth up to five shades. Brightened smiles can last up to a year, depending on age and lifestyle choices, such as drinking coffee or chewing coals.

The unisex Dollface Salon has built a beauty all-star squad, joining everyone from hairstylists and eyelash-extension specialists to makeup masters, licensed aestheticians, and nail techs. Always ready to offer something a little different, stylists shave intricate designs and maps that lead to chests full of treasure maps into patrons' ’dos, and apply rainbow mink lashes to create a set of kaleidoscopic pupil guards. The salon's staff also treats blemishes and age spots at the cellular level using PCA Skin products, which they pick out based on a one-on-one consultation that identifies each client's skin type and most pressing conditions.

Helmed by the ownership team of Heather Badal and medical director Dr. Frederick Fiber, Flawless Skin Spa's aesthetic architects refresh skin with an assortment of med-spa services and laser treatments. Registered nurses and certified aestheticians dispense such skin-smoothing serums as Botox and Juvéderm and tailor facial treatments for specific visage vexations, including age indicators and acne. The creations of featured artist Kevin Tolman complement the beauty of Candela GentleMax lasers, which zap away unwanted hair and tighten weary epidermises, and RevLite tattoo-removal equipment, which eradicates ink faster than a John Woo movie filmed in a ballpoint-pen factory.

One step across the threshold of Aqua Desert Spa & Wellness yields a sense of tranquility. Music, aroma, and color therapy simulate the senses as health-conscious professionals perform natural therapies to balance the body. The center specializes in colonics, which flush out compacted material from the intestinal tract to improve digestion and decrease the presence of harmful bacteria or putrefied wads of gum. Colon hydrotherapist Roenee McLin works alongside a homeopath, massage therapist, and weight-loss coach who perform services that include microdermabrasion, infrared weight-loss treatments, pumpkin-spice body wraps, and massages.

North Star Body Bar’s aesthetically driven specialists embellish epidermal expanses with a menu of services that darken, smooth, and soothe skin. During slimming body wraps, an aesthetician performs dry-brush exfoliation with a cheerful sea anemone, before swaddling physiques in algae, seaweed, mud, or clay to firm the skin and oust toxins. Endermologie treatments rely on rollers and suction devices to undo dimples throughout the body, and red-light therapy improves skin tone and eases aches. Beach House Tanning, North Star's body-bronzing area, houses a variety of tanning beds that help bodies produce more vitamin D. Tanners eschewing UV rays can yield their pelts to a sunless spray tan that imbues skin in golden hues without needing a chest bump from King Midas.
