Beauty & Spas in Reynoldsburg

At Americana Nail Company, Leah Parker and her staff of experienced aestheticians glitz up nails with a full line of manicures, pedicures, polishes, and acrylic nails. Parker has set up a space whose hardwood floors, bountiful plants, and neutral-toned furniture create a relaxing oasis inspired by nature. The staffers, many of whom tout more than a decade in the industry, meticulously sculpt nail tips and create hand-painted nail art without the use of hammers. Clients can unwind with shiatsu massages in pedicure chairs or soothe feet in a whirlpool pedicure tub during reflexology treatments.

Led by board-certified physicians, the staff at Central Ohio Skin Care combats signs of aging with aggressive yet minimally invasive treatments. As the aesthetic division of Central Ohio Skin and Cancer, whose physicians' specialties include general dermatology and dermatologic surgery, pediatric dermatology, and dermatopathology, the facility is equipped to offer advanced skincare treatments and medical-grade products.

Cosmetic dermatologists diminish wrinkles with Botox and dermal fillers, and treat psoriasis, nail disorders, and spider veins. The team of doctors and aestheticians uses intense-pulsed light to remove hair or rejuvenate skin damaged by the sun or the high winds of a Tilt-A-Whirl and freshens complexions with chemical peels or diamond-tip microdermabrasion sessions.

The long row of leather pedicure chairs isn’t the token of luxury at The Nail Retreat. Not only do clients leave sporting polish from the salon’s kaleidoscopic array of shades from OPI, Shellac, or Gelish, they also have the option to indulge in manicures with botanically derived grape-seed oils or pedicures with soothing hot stones. Additionally, skincare treatments combine custom blends of products to cleanse, tone, and exfoliate the dermal layers, leaving faces looking as robust and hydrated as an ice sculpture of Hulk Hogan.

Master stylist Tomika Gordon began her career as a styling educator for Hype World Int. and catapulted herself into the beauty industry, eventually being featured in the pages of Xtreme Hairstyles Magazine. At Salon Lofts, the 20-year veteran gives hairdos professional overhauls with sleek haircuts, coloring services, and treatments such as perms and extensions. She also specializes in eyelash services, and preps brides, prom-goers, and decorative cacti for their big days with special-event hairstyling.

At Posh Nail Company's Dublin location, the team believes spa treatments should accentuate natural beauty and embrace natural techniques. As a result, the nail gurus exclusively seek out nontoxic products, lining their shelves with organic skincare balms that feature everything from moisturizing botanical extracts to pure almond oil. Harsh chemical agents have no place in this environment, and the staff members even refuse to use acetone when removing polish because of the unnatural drying effects. To further demonstrate their commitment to eco-friendly practices, the technicians perform waterless manicures and shake hands with every squirrel they see.

Revolve Sunless Tanning and Salon’s staff bronze bodies without exposing skin to skin-damaging UV rays. Applied by hand, their spray tans are fully customized based on each client’s skin tone and preferences. For an extra fee, tanners can arm themselves with a heated spray gun to get rid of the chill sometimes associated with the airbrush method and fight armies of snowmen. When the staff isn’t helping clients shake the winter blues with bronzing, they’re often found cutting hair or waxing eyebrows. They also perform Awapuhi Wild Ginger conditioning treatments.
