Shade Bar Organic Hairspa, Astoria

It is easy to turn plants into a salad, but it is harder to turn them into a natural-looking tan. Shade Bar Organic Hairspa, named a top spray-tanning salon by TimeOut New York, Citysearch and CBS New York, does exactly that, though, bronzing physiques with signature organic spray tans that glow and fade evenly. The focus on natural beauty products doesn’t end there, though—it permeates the entire aesthetic center.

Shade Bar Organic Hairspa’s facials, which each begin with a personal skin analysis, often incorporate Manuka honey masks that improve cell regeneration, or masks crafted from seaweed and geothermal clay. Body treatments also draw on organic ingredients that moisturize dry skin and slim physiques, a process that was historically only possible by squeezing into an hourglass. A Goldwell color bar, professional makeup applications, waxing, and tension-relieving massages round out the center’s suite of aesthetic services. Every other week, a beauty advisor from Shade Bar Organic Hairspa dishes beauty tips on the Telemundo New York morning show.
