Madison Beauty and Salons

Different skin types and tones tan at different rates and in different ways. That’s why Solar Energy Tan houses four levels of tanning beds and welcomes each new client with a skin-type analysis to draft a tanning regimen perfectly suited to them. A standard Sollux 36 bed helps beginners build base tans in less than 15 minutes. Mega-level beds reside on the other end of the shade-shifting spectrum, offering a luxury bed with air conditioning, aromatherapy, and a music system and a standup tanning bed for those who like to juggle as they tan. The tanning studio also caters to sun-shy skins with a VersaSpa UV-free tanning booth, where patrons develop a natural-looking bronze in two minutes.

Jece Marshall is passionate about hair color. She imbues strands with dimension during full color and highlight treatments, and she adds vibrant bursts and aerodynamic thrust with removable feather hair extensions. When she’s not cutting, styling, and coloring the ‘dos of her male and female clients, Jece also flaunts her hair-lopping chops to create hair and makeup designs for stylish exhibitions, such as Pink Milk fashion shows and Hair Affair for the Museum of Contemporary Art.

Since 1963, this full-service salon located inside the Madison Area Technical College has been helping future hairstylists hone their skills under the supervision of licensed instructors.

Customers can rest assured that all services are backed by a guarantee and can be redone to satisfaction within five days, and a range of high-quality styling products available at 10%–30% below their normal retail price helps ensure any new style can be easily sustained at home.

Tucked inside Divine Image Salon is the nail studio Cool & Cute Nails, where resident tech Ary utilizes advanced technologies, including no-chip Shellac polish, to groom clients’ paws. She engages with ongoing training to stay abreast of the latest techniques, which she then uses to beautify adult digits or craft whimsical polish designs for children.

Foxy's Salon Hair and Wax Specialist LLC owner and cosmetologist Pamela Fox takes pleasure in making others look their best. “Helping people feel good about themselves and brightening their day is what inspires me,” she states on her website. She's a jack-of-all-beauty-trades who can do services from flattering haircuts to feather extensions to body waxing that can leave faces baby smooth and turn hairy backs into a clean canvas or your very own hair-lined maze.

After greeting guests with warm cups of cappuccino, the beauty experts at Vogue Hair Design snip locks and massage bodies under the leadership of Chelsea Garthwaite. The salon maintains flexible hours and a relaxing atmosphere where stylists can craft 'dos and polish talons in peace.
