The experienced staff at Serenity Salon & Spa pampers and preens bodies, faces, and hairdos with expert care. During a 10- to 15-minute facial-waxing session, a waxing maven utilizes the spa’s own special depilatory potion designed to reduce skin irritation as it efficiently yanks face frizzies from their roots, leaving the brow lines, lip, or chin as smooth as a freshly buttered bowling ball. Trained in contemporary techniques and the latest product technology, expert hair colorists paint particular strands with a brightening infusion of face-framing accent highlights. The 60- to 90-minute process adorns tresses with an average of five to seven (but no more than eight) highlighting foils, and includes the application of a clear-glaze conditioning treatment that shines manes, softens locks, and tempts the snack loyalties of diehard donut lovers.
