About

Modern Designs Salon describes its mission as blending artistry with wellness and building a community around education, creativity, and personal growth. Its approach centers on mind-body wellness, and the aim is for each client to leave with a style they can recreate at home.

A cut and style visit begins with a free consultation with the stylist. Services cover women's and men's cuts, curly cuts shaped with a dry cutting technique for natural curl patterns, blow-dries, special updos for occasions, and hair extensions, where a consultation plans the length, volume, or color. A head massage is included with every wash.

Color services include base retouch, single process all-over color, and foil highlighting or balayage in partial and full versions. Texture and treatment options include perms, the plant-based Agave Smoothing Treatment for frizz, Healing Oil Emergency Treatment for damaged hair, the three-step Ultimate Treatment, and Well Water Treatment, which removes mineral buildup.

Beyond hair, the salon offers original and express spray tans, waxing for eyebrows, lips, and two facial areas, and several massage styles: aromatherapy, hot stone, Swedish, deep tissue, and Modern Pure Relaxation, plus buccal massage, a facial muscle treatment usually booked as a series, and chair massage.

Wedding hair and makeup is a major part of the menu, including bridal hair and makeup, trials, bridesmaid and mother-of-the-bride looks, flower girl hair, airbrush makeup, and false lash application. The salon says its team specializes in bridal hairstyles from updos to romantic curls, and bridal hair is priced the same for an updo, half-up, or all-down style. A non-refundable $150 deposit holds a wedding date. Brides are asked not to use a flat iron the day before or the day of the wedding, to wear a button-down shirt to the wedding-day appointment, and to bring inspiration photos and hair accessories.

Bookings are made through the salon's online booking system on Phorest. Prices are starting points and may change. The salon is open Tuesday 9 AM to 5 PM, Wednesday to Friday 9 AM to 8 PM, and Saturday 8 AM to 2 PM, and is closed Sunday and Monday.

Built on mind-body wellness, the salon blends artistry with wellness and aims for styles clients can recreate at home. The salon says its stylists keep up their education to stay current with trends and techniques.
