In the fast-paced world we live in, finding time to wash and style our hair every day can be a challenge. Fortunately, there's a hero in the hair care world that can save the day: dry shampoo. This product has revolutionized the way we care for our hair, offering a quick and convenient solution for those busy days when washing our hair just isn't an option. In this comprehensive guide, we'll dive deep into the world of dry shampoo, exploring its benefits, how to use it effectively, and some top tips to keep your locks looking fresh and fabulous.

It's a convenient alternative to traditional shampooing and can be a lifesaver in between washes or when you're on the go.

In the hustle and bustle of our daily lives, we often forget to pamper our feet, the unsung heroes that support us every step of the way. Enter the world of pedicures – a delightful blend of relaxation, self-care, and rejuvenation for your tired and often-neglected feet. In this blog post, we'll explore the myriad benefits of professional pedicures, beyond just the aesthetic appeal, to unveil the secrets of healthy, happy feet.

Foot Health Matters

Have you ever heard of an eyelash lift and tint? Sometimes referred to as an eyelash “perm”, an eyelash lift and tint accentuates your natural beauty by darkening and lifting your eyelashes. The results from an eyelash lift and tint are immediate and dramatic, and last anywhere between two to three months.

During this service, your lashes are adhered to a silicone rod and solution is applied to permanently curl them upwards. Next, your esthetician will apply the lash tint and let it sit until the color has absorbed into your lashes. This service is perfect for anyone who is looking to emphasize their eyes and make their morning routine a little bit easier. It is also ideal for someone who spends lots of time swimming in the summer. No more worrying about mascara running!

Our estheticians recommend pairing this service with an eyebrow tint to help frame your face and give a more dramatic look. They also recommend using a lash growth serum to help your lashes grow longer, which accentuates the eyes even more! Call today to book your lash lift...

Permanent eyelash extensions provide a beautiful natural look of flawless, thick and long lashes, without the need for mascara. They can last up to two to three weeks after application or a fill.
