Gem Salon the studio Temecula

Gem Salon works across hair, skin, and permanent makeup, with a salon location at 42315 10th Street West in Lancaster and a studio at 40820 Winchester Road in Temecula. Appointments are required, and the salon says it keeps up with current beauty trends. The building has a built-in air purification system.

The BB Glow Treatment, priced at $350, is a semi-permanent micro-needle therapy (MTS) from the fractional mesotherapy family, usually done in two to three sessions. The salon says results can last up to six months and that the treatment can lighten skin tone and reduce the look of freckles, discoloration, and age spots. BB Glow with Carboxy, at $475, is a non-invasive session of about 60 minutes that uses activating bubbles absorbed into the skin without injection, which the salon describes as pain free. Add-ons include Carboxy at $35 to $50 per area for the neck, arms, thighs, stomach, or back, and LED light therapy at $40, a non-invasive treatment using narrow-band, non-thermal light.

Brows are handled through KPS Brows, a microblading service at $500 that includes an 8-week touch-up. Waxing is also offered at the team level, with listed prices for brows, lip, and full face.

Hair pricing depends on length, density, and overall condition, and the salon offers a complimentary in-person consultation so clients can get an accurate quote. Consent forms must be completed before appointments and are available for photos, color services, Brazilian Blowout, and the BB Glow facial.

Booking requires a nonrefundable deposit, payable by phone or in person, which is credited toward services. Deposits are forfeited for arriving 15 minutes late, no-shows, or cancellations within 48 hours. Buy Now, Pay Later financing is available for bookings from $50 to $4,000, subject to approval before the appointment. Gift cards can be bought through the website. The studio also offers booth rental to licensed professionals, on a full-time basis for those working three or more days a week, part-time for two set days a week, or daily for one set day a week.

The salon focuses on bringing out each client's individual character and natural beauty rather than measuring clients against one another. It says its products are made with top-grade ingredients.
