Beauty & Spas in Mukilteo

Medical Director Dr. Roger B. Olsson joined The Renewal Center as a way to let his naturally artistic eye flourish through custom cosmetic treatments. Dr. Olsson’s team, led by medical aesthetician and certified laser technician René Steele, performs several skincentric procedures that restore suppleness with lasers, fight acne with infrared rays, or increase empathy for Smurfs with blue face paint and a mirror. They also work with clients on an FDA-approved weight-loss program proven to purge pounds while boosting energy. Most of The Renewal Center’s procedures require little to no downtime, meaning after their procedure, clients can leave the office and immediately attempt to lasso any loose mechanical bulls they come across.

Professional tattoo artists Sasha King and Micah Nelson preside over a choir of buzzing needles as they ink clients with designs that range from detailed black-and-white portraits to simple kanji letters. Though immaculately clean, their Edmonds studio eschews the coldness of a medical clinic in favor of a warmth that reflects the artists’ own dispositions. While Sasha and Micah outfit skin with colorful sleeves or all-black tuxedo vests, their piercing counterparts embellish ears, lips, noses, and brows with studs or surgical steel rings.

Doctor of Chiropractic Jenni Ricker, a graduate of Palmer College, opened The Health and Wellness Clinic with the goal of helping people heal by offering a collaborative approach to natural medicine.

Before birth, prenatal massage and chiropractic care ease the burdens of mothers-to-be and babies alike. As children grow, Dr. Ricker helps promote good posture, improve spinal health, and reduce strain with adolescent chiropractic services. Adults enjoy a full suite of treatments including medically managed weight loss, traditional Chinese medicine, and chiropractic adjustments.

The staff at Salon Cybele’ boasts 10 members, including a makeup artist, a lash specialist, a massage therapist, and enough skilled stylists to form a complete circle around an ungroomed celebrity on the red carpet. They add panache to hair and nails as well as refresh the skin during facials, waxing, and makeup applications. Stylist Shena adds length to hair and eyelashes with her signature extensions, which have nothing to do with taking 40 minutes to sign for a package. Salon Cybele'’s staff takes advantage of an array of products, including Unite, Moroccanoil, Hairdreams, and Dermalogica.

Calling themselves the Glam Squad, the stylists and makeup artists at Bellissimo Beauty Bar use products such as Neuma shampoos and conditioners and Hairdreams hair extensions to sculpt the kinds of looks you'd see on the Bangstyle image community. The studio's fun, quirky décor matches the staff's sensibility, blending modern and vintage furnishings with funky touches, such as contrasting upholstery patterns and styling stations setup on the ceiling.

While the beauty professionals at Nu Aura Medical Spa concede that they cannot stop aging altogether, they perform aesthetic services that counter and abate its effects. A squad of doctors, physician's assistants, and licensed aestheticians wields ultramodern technology wands as it neutralizes spider veins, ousts unwanted hair, and smoothes the face. The specialists customize each treatment to the client, and bilingual staff members can consult with them in both English and Spanish.
