Services
Waxing
Professional body waxing services remove unwanted hair with precision and care. We offer multiple treatment options from basic brow shaping to full-body solutions. Our estheticians use quality products to minimize discomfort while achieving smooth results that last up to six weeks with regular maintenance.
Microblading
Semi-permanent eyebrow tattooing creates natural-looking, fuller brows that last 12-18 months. Our certified technicians use sterile tools and pigments to match your natural hair color. The process includes a follow-up touch-up appointment to perfect the results.
Lash Extensions
Custom lash extensions add length and volume to natural lashes. We offer classic and volume styles applied strand-by-strand for dramatic yet natural effects. Maintenance fills every 2-3 weeks keep lashes looking full between $55-$80.
Lash Lifts
Keratin lash lifts curl natural lashes upward, creating a wide-eyed effect that lasts 8-10 weeks. The treatment includes tinting options to darken lashes for added definition without daily makeup application.
Brow Lamination
Brow lamination treatments set hairs in place while enhancing natural brow shape. The semi-permanent solution lasts 4-6 weeks with optional tinting to create fuller-looking eyebrows that frame the face.
