Beauty & Spas in Orchards

Licensed aesthetician and permanent makeup artist Monica McKay accentuates facial features for the long term with eyebrow makeup, eyeliner, and lip color. In addition, Monica helps gussy up individuals for special occasions by offering in-home cosmetic appointments. Prior to each procedure, Monica meets with clients during a free consultation to obtain a clear idea of personal needs and expected outcomes. Eyeliner and lash-line enhancements provide eyelashes with either a subtle or smudgy base, and eyebrow treatments fill in thin or missing eyebrows. Treatment results last approximately 18 months to three years before a touchup is required, which shortens morning pampering routines for clients so they can spend more time sleeping in or writing sonnets using leftover eyeliner pencils.

Instead of just focusing on the physical, esthetician Tanya Khounphachansy incorporates a holistic approach to her work—one that has served her well for 17 years. Her belief that the body, mind, and spirit are intertwined and should be cared for equally is reflected in her selection of services. Within her tranquil confines, she wields natural products such as papaya enzymes and honey as she helps her clients de-stress and rejuvenate through facials and mani-pedis instead of throwing rocks at the windows of abandoned warehouses.
