Beauty & Spas in Russellville

The skillful sun-sprayers and machines at Tansyou Tanning Center team up to coat physiques with an eye-catching, even tan. Beach-shy bodies can loosen up with a trio of Norvell airbrush tans, applied by a professional with an eye for detail, and another eye for reading messages on blimps. The salon stocks Norvell's DHA-formulated tanning mist, which interacts naturally with skin's amino acids to develop into a bronze as dark and even as Darth Vader's breathing pattern. Those vying for the attention of simulated sun can opt for six months of unlimited 15-minute sessions in the salon's SuperClass 170-watt bed, whose regularly changed bulbs aim to cultivate rich color while avoiding burn.

At Arkansas Anti-Aging, Dr. Constance J. Crisp leads a team of medical professionals on a quest to reverse the physical signs of aging.

At Sei Bella Med Spa, Dr. Anne Trussell leads a talented team of professionals who refresh and resurface skin with a variety of treatments, including gentle AccelaWave IPL sessions, wrinkle-reducing Botox and Juvéderm, and medical-grade chemical peels.

Sei Bella's resident nurse, Sandy Siler, rounds out the staff, and rejuvenates faces with her certifications in Radiesse and DermaFrac treatments, both of which help reduce signs of aging with no downtime or time traveling.

Since 2001, Melt has crafted homemade skincare and bath products by infusing natural ingredients with striking scents, such as vanilla cake batter and ginger pear. To ensure the absence of side effects, Melt tests each product on human volunteers instead of on animals or unwitting mannequins. Melt’s products range from silicone-free hemp shampoo to soy-wax candles with cotton wicks.

A small clinic, Simply Skin harbors none of the coldness of a large medical center. The technicians convey a warm bedside manner as they carry out their medical-grade beauty services. Board-certified physicians supervise the clinic's cosmetic laser treatments, Botox injections, and anti-aging facials, making sure the patients and practice cantaloupes receive the most meticulous care. Simply Skin's technicians make handy use of products from SkinCeuticals, a pharmaceutical-grade line of skincare products designed by scientists who are tapped into the dermatological community.

After graduating from beauty school and obtaining her cosmetology license, Cristi Dearasaugh decided to open a place to call her own––Hair Mechanics. Her services include men's, women's, and kids' cuts, as well as perms, coloring, and up-dos.
