Susan's Nail and Facial, Houston

While the name of Susan's Nail and Facial spa may sum up its specialties, it reveals very little about the detail that goes into each service. Take, for instance, the mani-pedis: nail technicians not only lengthen digits with Solar or fiberglass nails, they also soften the surrounding skin with sea salt scrubs and paraffin wax. During facial treatments, aestheticians thoroughly assess the skin before combatting acne, dehydration, or signs of aging with a personalized medley of vitamin-enriched Matis Paris products. To extend the life of newly glowing complexions, the staff plies clients with take-home samples of any product used during their treatments.
