Oldsmar, FL Beauty and Salons

Under the glimmer of brass chandeliers, seven stylists at Bladez and Bangz craft hairstyles for straight hair and perform dry cuts for curly hair. The sensitivity to different hair types comes from owner Matt Mahoney, whose childhood was steeped in styling techniques. "I (went) from a baby bottle to a bleach bottle," Matt jokes. "I grew up in this business." As a kid, Matt tagged along with his grandmother to her beauty school and salon, picking up styling tips and helping technicians battle armies of sentient brooms. Now, he presides over his own team of stylists that uses Deva Concepts products for curls and Paul Mitchell keratin products to smoothen already-straight locks.

Under the supervision of physician and skin care specialist Dr. Eyad Alsabbagh, Dania Medical Esthetique’s skilled staff helps clients achieve aesthetic goals with a diverse palette of cosmetic and medical services. Waxing services, and injections of Botox help bolster appearances for the short-term, while laser hair removal and permanent makeup can last a lifetime, or until donning irreversible gorilla suits.

Dr. Todd Besnoff](http://ultimateimagetampabay.com/about-dr-besnoff), who has performed an extensive and varied array of surgeries, brings his unique artistic and scientific expertise to his current post as the spa's medical director. There, he oversees injections and laser cosmetic treatments, as well as plastic surgeries completed by the board-certified Dr. Elias. Lasers' beautifying beams spotlight and fade unwanted tattoos, or work to eliminate unwanted hair, unsightly veins, and even stubborn-fat deposits. Photofacials and specialized lamps refine complexions by dissolving blemishes such as rosacea, age spots, and freckles displaying social-security numbers.

The aestheticians of Intuitive Skin Services rely on advanced procedures to fight the signs of aging: diamond microdermabrasion, LED photo facials, radio frequency facials, and LHE phototherapy. Of the four, the radio frequency facial may well be the most advanced method for stimulating muscles and collagen production in the face; its radio waves penetrate the skin to deliver heat energy to the muscles, aiming toward tightening and brightening skin and forming flag-football leagues for mitochondria. Every treatment includes a complimentary consultation, and all sessions take place in a private treatment room.

Westchase Spa's doctors have performed an extensive amount of laser procedures and cosmetic injections. For their own clients, they calibrate laser light to remove signs of aging on faces as well as unwanted hair, nail fungus, tattoos, fat deposits, and varicose veins. A before-and-after gallery illustrates the success of the med spa's eclectic treatments, displaying svelte torsos, lush heads of hair, and wrinkle-free pet mole rats.

The experienced stylists at Classy Cuts of Florida perform a variety of services in a vibrant, upbeat setting. Clients watch in floor-length mirrors framed with black wood as staffers nourish tresses with Paul Mitchell or Moroccanoil products, and add highlights or feather extensions as an eye-catching final touch. The wall alongside the shampoo stations boasts a colorful, collage-style artwork that, like a seminar on municipal tax codes, encourages onlookers to dream.
