Beauty & Spas in Waukee

Cloud 9 Massage Therapy owner Zachary Flick's resume includes nearly a decade of massage-therapy experience, rounded out by his other care-focused roles as a husband and dad. In the comfort of a private room, the licensed massage therapist promotes healing with a full menu of nuanced techniques, ranging from long, flowing Swedish strokes to soft-tissue prodding through myofascial release. Stressed businesspeople can enlist Zachary's skillful digits for corporate-style chair massages, enhanced by relaxing music and aromatic oils designed to blend well with the scents of mediocre coffee.

Salon TEC's staff offers a variety of beauty services within a spacious studio-type salon. Hairstylists perform haircuts for both women and men, along with coloring, highlighting, and styling services. Facial-waxing services remove unwanted whiskers from the face, and nailcare services fortify and gloss the helmets of finger and toes. For a natural-looking tan, spray-tanning sessions can be purchased by the session or in packs of three.

With more than 13 years of snipping experience under her comb-filled belt, stylist Nicki Owens revamps tired looks with salon services ranging from cuts and highlights to facial waxing. She also reshapes the movements of hair itself, smoothing out frizz with relaxers or increasing functionality through perms. Nicki stays ready to adjust styles throughout the day, often scheduling appointments in the evening to accommodate work schedules or fear of the sun.

The aestheticians at Skin FX Spa believe the best way to achieve healthy, beautiful skin is to nourish it with healthy, natural ingredients. That's why all of their skincare treatments are built around the use of organic herbal products free of parabens, silicone, and formaldehyde. Manufactured in Iowa using solar energy and secret formulas whispered from the corn, the eco-friendly tonics are blended into skin-quenching facials, resurfacing peels, and exfoliating sugar scrubs. The spa can also usher in smoother skin by waxing or threading away unwanted hairs or with diamond microdermabrasion, which stimulates collagen and healthy tissue production to improve skin tone and elasticity.

Tucked right off of Hickman Road, Kreative Styles stands ready to welcome locks and their owners. Led by a stylist with over a decade of experience, the salon's team creates a warm and inviting atmosphere, chatting amiably as they rifle through mirror-side cabinets stocked with professional-grade products and hopeful scissor understudies. They imbue locks with rich color and eye-catching highlights, tame flyaways with smoothing treatments, and rid the skin of unwanted hairs in quick waxing sessions.

Angela Henson is not one to rest on her laurels. Over the course of her decade-long career, she’s been constantly seeking out the latest ways to make her clients look and feel beautiful. To this end, she has supplemented her natural talents for haircuts, waxing, and Redken coloring with a fistful of specialized certifications: one for Keratin complex smoothing means she can flatten frizzy locks to optimize manageability, and an endorsement from Cinderella hair extensions proves she can install the company’s line of 100% human locks without the need for super glue or a Boy Scout badge in overhand knot tying. Angela can also renew skin surfaces with advanced chemical peels from PCA Skin and microdermabrasions from Genesis BioSystems.:m]]
