Southglenn, CO Spa and Massage

Steve and Kim Weiner take pride in their ability to mesh medical-grade wellness treatments with a relaxing, spa-like atmosphere. The co-owners began their careers as an aesthetic equipment salesman and a paramedical aesthetician respectively, giving them extensive professional insight into the role that technology can play in rejuvenating clients’ appearances. Their spa embraces some of these technologically based treatments, including infrared sauna wraps, teeth whitening and hair removal with cosmetic laser systems, and lipotron skin-tightening sessions, which use radio frequencies to firm skin tone and broadcast warning messages to crow’s feet. The center also offers basic spa treatments, such as massages and deep-cleansing facials.

Before there was Bloom Salon Plus, owners Richard Robb and Patti Saunier worked alongside the Bloom Salon Plus team at another salon and spa. When that one closed down suddenly, the group decided to stay together. They strove to build an environment based on trust and mutual cooperation. And that was how Bloom Salon Plus was born. It rose from the ashes of that old salon and spa, like a phoenix or a butterfly wearing a flameproof suit of armor.

Services include haircuts for men and women, color treatments, waxing, and manicures. Their skin specialists brandish products from brands such as Pureology, Aquage, Éminence, and Lexli when treating exteriors to four different facials, yam and pumpkin peels, and a variety of body scrubs that contain seasonal ingredients.

At Chic Designs, licensed cosmetologist Ericka focuses her energy on two things: hairstyling and waxing. A certified Redken specialist, she can upgrade haircuts and color treatments with a custom deep-conditioning chemistry shot. Consultations are always free, so potential clients can come in any time to chat about hairstyles, discuss trendy services such as the Brazilian blowout, or wear a frozen smile until someone asks them to be in their magic act.

With the help of Spa Bella Medispa's certified staffers, patients turn back the clock on the aging process, removing the touch of Father Time with facial treatments ranging from exfoliating microdermabrasion and enzyme facials to Botox wrinkle blockers. Staffers also offer skin resurfacing with DOT fractional CO2 laser treatments on various body parts, as well as laser liposuction which uses low-level light to eliminate body fat.

The whirring sound of blow dryers competes with audible ooohs and ahhhs escaping from clients’ mouths at Avery Bella Salon and Spa, where a passionate styling crew pampers people from cowlick to toenails. Hairstylists and color specialists sling Kevin Murphy products as they refashion mop tops into chic styles and add depth and dimension with highlights.

At the nail station, Nikki the nail tech indulges hands and feet with spa manicures and pedicures and vibrant OPI color. Environmentally friendly cleansers and moisturizers by Éminence are used during exfoliating facials, which a licensed aesthetician customizes for each client. Avery Bella also offers a specially designed salon and spa menu for guys.

A wildly successful alternative to traditional day spas—its more than 300 locations blanket 36 states and half a dozen countries—Planet Beach Contempo Spa is a futuristic relaxation station where state-of-the-art machines administer all of the spa and tanning services. These friendly automatons sometimes replace familiar treatments, as in the Luminous facial, a light-based service that delivers blemish-busting results similar to those of a conventional facial. But other equipment maps out new spa territory entirely: the Hydro-Derma Fusion chamber moisturizes the whole body with nutrient-rich steam to offset the effects of a dry climate or a rear-end collision with a salt truck. Other machines whiten teeth, spray-tan skin, and massage muscles.

Planet Beach operates on a gym-style membership system, meaning that members purchase packages or pay flat monthly rates. As members spend more time at the spa, they get to know the helpful assistants who are always on hand to demonstrate how to use the equipment without activating its ability to cry.:m]]
