Tallmadge, OH Beauty and Salons

Always Perfection is a full-service salon stocked to the rafters with a warm, knowledgeable, and hospitable staff. These beautymeisters treat cockney finger helmets and coal-blackened toe tips with an effective beauty regimen that transforms them into royal phalange-finishers. The 45-minute wet manicure ($15) begins by soaking grubby grabbers in a warm, relaxing tip-bath, which melts the stress of a day spent giving inky print samples to local law-enforcement officers. After digits are dried, a thorough cut and shape is performed by one of Always Perfection's keratin captainistas, followed by a nail buff and cuticle removal. A thorough application of lotion hydrates your hands, nearly returning them to their original mer-state. The upper-digit pampering concludes with a dapper coat of polish. The basic pedicure ($35) stretches similar services—a 10–15-minute soak, cut, filing, lotion application, and polishing—over a luxurious 60 minutes for the ultimate experience in shoe-stuffer mollycoddling. Call and make an appointment at Always Perfection's relaxing, newly remodeled facility to thank your digits for putting up with your compulsive oyster shucking.

Studio Luxe doesn't believe hair should be cut; it should be sculpted. That's why its stylists employ the Sahag method of styling, also known as dry-cutting. The brainchild of prominent stylist John Sahag, dry-cutting allows for the client's hair to fall at its own discretion, without the manipulative tactics of water or aggressive switchblade combs. It also invites clients to candidly remark about the work in progress for the mutual benefit of both stylee and stylist. Studio Luxe Salon also specializes in Joico hair coloring, hair waxing, and nail renovation with long-lasting gel Shellac polish.

Growing up on the shores of the Black Sea in Romania, Maria Suciu found herself surrounded by beauty. Her appreciation for aesthetics was not only inspired by the breathtaking beaches, therapeutic resorts, and glassy waters—which are believed to have curative powers—but also by her mother, who taught her how to fetchingly care for her skin, hair, and nails. After years of helping others strengthen their businesses as a public-relations adviser, Suciu shifted careers paths and traveled to America to share all she had learned about inner and outer wellness.

Suciu is now the owner and managing aesthetician of Callatis Spa, where she uses European-style techniques and organic, herbal formulas to pamper skin and boost outer allure. Callatis, which translates to the most beautiful, was the name of an ancient Greek colony that once inhabited the same shores that nurtured Suciu’s passion for performing cosmetic treatments. As a reiki master, Suciu also aims to balance the body and mind, targeting negative energy caused by palling around with delinquent magnets. Soothing fragrances and relaxing music permeate the spa's interior, which is small and intimate for highly personalized services.
