Beauty & Spas in River Forest

Tes Nail Spa Inc. artfully crowns nails in shimmering hues during three levels of extremity services. Classic mani-pedis run the gamut of soaking, shaping, and moisturizing nails before sweeping tips with a favorite shade. For a smoother finish, nail technicians wipe out rough patches with exfoliating scrubs and oil treatments, then conclude with a coat of OPI polish. No-chip gel lacquers cure under a UV light to last even longer, letting nail techs simultaneously nourish nails, embellish hands, and hide nail-bed tattoos from disapproving parents for two to three weeks.

Inside The Nail House's cotton-candy-colored salon, plasma-screen TVs often play marathons of Sex and the City to entertain clients as they indulge in relaxing nail services designed to melt away stress while beautifying digits. As patrons sink into plush pedicure chairs and dip their weary feet into a built-in spa bath, they can decompress with a favorite movie or TV show of their choice. Nail services range from a basic polish change to long-lasting gel treatments and include a men's manicure to help guys to prepare for thumb-wrestling matches. The pampering menu extends to the rest of the body with waxing services that wick away unwanted hair from eyebrow to ankle.

The staff at Beauty Box Hair Salon & Spa pampers customers with a full menu of services. Stylists cut and color hair in addition to fortifying tresses with Moroccanoil hydrating masks and smoothing frizz with keratin treatments, and nail technicians gloss fingers and toes with polishes from OPI and Essie as well as long-lasting Shellac. Waxing services whisk away unwanted facial and body hair, leaving skin as smooth as a dolphin playing the saxophone. Before or after beauty treatments, clients may opt to browse the boutique area filled with handbags and jewelry to accessorize new looks.:m]]

At The Skin Spa, located within the Robert Jeffrey Salon, licensed medical aestheticians conduct thorough and complimentary skincare consultations to personalize each treatment. They use modern anti-aging technology such as microdermabrasion devices and ultrasonic-wave machines, which stimulate cell membranes, enhance circulation, and help people to surf when the tide won't cooperate. The team also specializes in hair removal and tints bodies with sunless bronzing lotion.

Inside Studio D by Dejan Dimkovski, high ceilings, minimally dispersed artwork, and polished hardwood floors create a loft-like ambiance, which is fitting for a business with a staff who favor unique flourishes over cookie-cutter aesthetics. The studio's mission is to tailor every service to its clients' images, crafting cuts, styles, and colored hairdos that enhance their natural features and hide their clown noses. From the second they lay their heads in jet-black shampoo bowls to the moment they rise from angular styling chairs, customers are fretted over with care and attention to create manageable, long-lasting style.

Flower murals and rose-colored walls draw guests into The Pink Nail & Spa like honeybees into a garden; cushy leather seats await them, as inviting as lush flowers. Guests plop comfortably into the chairs during manicures, pedicures, and waxing services. Creative Spa manicures and pedicures condition skin with elixirs infused with citrus oils, antioxidants, and vitamin E. Nail technicians also pamper the hands and feet with relaxing soaks and moisturizing treatments. During regular spa mani-pedis, the techs knead palms and soles and slough off expired skin with gentle exfoliation tools. Clients can also opt to pamper their whole bodies with more than a half-dozen types of massage therapy, including Swedish and deep-tissue treatments that melt pain, tension, and subcutaneous cheddar wheels.
