Hair Salons in Sun Lakes

The students at Carsten Aveda Institute prettify clients’ hair and faces under the watchful eyes of supervisors. They perform the salon’s signature service—French-style haircuts—while clients stand up, which better predicts how the hair will hang during traffic-court-sentencing hearings. The aestheticians-in-training also wax excess hair from the brow, bikini area, and back, among other body areas, and tint existing strands on eyelashes or brows. During facials, they pamper skin using natural, high-end Aveda products that correspond to specialty-treatment goals, such as combating signs of aging, lifting dark spots, or calming acne.

At Blondies Salon/Body, pampering begins the minute clients walk in the door and they’re handed complimentary cups of coffee or glasses of water. Once thirst is defeated, experienced stylists use Redken products to help men, women, and children achieve fresh new dos that compliment their lifestyles and superhero alter egos. Blondies' resident aesthetician draws upon seven years of experience when beautifying skin during cleansing facials, peels, and waxing treatments. Elsewhere, Blondies’ meticulous nail tech amplifies high fives with classic manicures or treats keratin with gel polish, which delivers color that lasts up to five weeks.

Just a Tease recently underwent its own beauty transformation when the boutique salon was revamped with a darker color palette, more Zen-inspired decor, and even a new name, Salon Beauremy. But even though the beauty haven's image has changed, its staff's dedication to providing custom hair and skin services has not wavered. In fact, the center's stylists still reach for high-quality haircare products, such as sulfate-free Enjoy and sensitivity-friendly HBL products, as they style freshly trimmed and colored tresses. In the spa area, aestheticians enhance facials with skin-clearing products from PCA Skin, Circadia, and Janssen, and use mineral cosmetics from GloMineral and Advanced Mineral Makeup to enhance facial features with perfectly matched foundations and eye shadows. And to cater to all their patients, they offer a variety of specialized facials that prevent and treat skin conditions with cutting-edge skincare treatments such as microcurrent facial toning, epidermal leveling, and oxygen-infused facials. On the way out, beauty-goers can peruse the salon's updated art and clothing boutique stocked with apparel and accessories from Tigerlily, and framed with original artwork from local artist Renee Bau.

At Salon 7000, high-end products from Matrix, Cirepil, and Living Proof (Jennifer Aniston’s new line) are just half the story. The friendly, talented stylists are the real draw, because they’re the ones who know how to customize each service depending on the client’s personal requests. They begin every service with a thorough consultation, inquiring about the client’s lifestyle and look preferences before offering thoughtful input. The list of available services is lengthy yet fully focused on hair, from keratin treatments and bridal updos to full-body waxes performed in a cozy golden room.

Stark, white walls bursting with firework-like splotches of red and black welcome clients to the salon. After signing in at the chrome desk and lounging on black leather couches, clients stroll into the wood-accented salon area and dangle their tresses into black sinks while levitating or reclining on cushy, red, leather chairs.

The Salon Spot’s experienced stylists—including a hair-extension specialist—treat clients inside a well-appointed space decorated with bamboo plants and vibrant purple walls. Armed with PHresh by Redding Hair Care, Morroccanoil, and DermOrganic products, they can revamp hairdos by trimming away dead ends, applying permanent hair dye, or curling strands into elegant updos that correspond with the prom’s Eiffel Tower theme. In addition, staff aestheticians personalize spa treatments that range from body-sculpting sessions to waxing services.
