Beauty & Spas in Kuna

For more than 20 years, master stylist Henry Mallory has been plying skills polished in the classrooms of Vidal Sassoon in LA and Bumble and bumble in New York to perfect coifs with technical precision. His knowledgeable take on trending hair fashions was recently featured in Eagle Magazine, and he and his staff continually attend fashion shows and training workshops to stay abreast of the latest cut-, color-, and scissors-juggling techniques. His dedication to making the world a more beautiful place is also reflected in the salon's use of fair-trade, environmentally conscious label.m products, which tame tresses using renewable and responsibly harvested ingredients and are never tested on animals.

Every day at Anastasia Skincare & Waxing, licensed aesthetician and Gem State native Anastasia Jenkins—formerly of Rapunzel Salon—beautifies clients with the skin-smoothing secrets she learned at the Oliver Finley Academy of Cosmetology. Anastasia has mastered the art of mixing hard and soft waxes to create formulas that can grip the shaft of the hair without sticking to the skin. And when she's not using her knowledge to beautify clients and ready them for diving tryouts, she's sharing her tips and techniques with students as a part-time teacher at Oliver Finley.

A highly skilled staff of beautifiers makes its home at Unlimited Salon & Spa, rejuvenating and preening bodies from top to toe. Clients’ manes are snipped, colored, and permed, and faces revivify with relaxing facials and permanent makeup such as eyeliner or brows. Nail technicians can treat paws to manicures and pedicures, or embellish finger and toe tips with detailed nail art such as flower patterns, stripes, or intricate depictions of Whistler’s mother getting a manicure. Patrons can enlist waxing services to depilate faces or legs, then melt tension from muscles with massages that last up to 90 minutes, or sometimes longer, if the massage bed is equipped with light-speed capability. Spray tans round out the service list, leaving pelts looking sun-kissed and golden without UV exposure.

A licensed medical aesthetician, nail technician, and makeup artist, Valerie Roe performs an array of beautification services that range from waxing to spray tans to chemical peels. Inches are shed through the detoxifying body wrap, which, like pushing a fish-tank thief through a screen filter, ousts toxins without water loss. During DermaSound Plus ultrasonic facials, Valerie arms her clients with a three-phase skin-cleansing technique to fight myriad dermal ailments, such as acne, wrinkles, and sensitive skin.

A full-service hair- and nail-beautification emporium, Oh’So Nails & Hair Salon ensures contemporary looks for its clients by staying up-to-date on the latest trends and styles. Inside its serene salon space, as stylists snip away at extra fringe, aestheticians perform waxing and makeup services. Nail technicians cater to digits with traditional manicures and pedicures, acrylics, and gel polish, which can last longer than standard formulas without requiring clients to wear protective marshmallows on their fingertips.

At her salon, Kisha Alcala gets along best with children and clients with special needs, such as those with autism or spinal bifida. No matter who the hair belongs to, she can trim, dye, and perm it until the mirror hums with joy. She also performs waxing services for full-grown clients, accents fingers with acrylic nails and sees to the whole body with the precise pressure of reflexology massage.
