About

The salon was founded in 2011 on West Street in Alexandria and moved to its Mount Eagle Drive location in 2017, after the West Street building was sold. It sits off Route 1, just south of the Beltway, inside a gated community with parking. It is open Monday through Saturday, 10 a.m. to 7 p.m.

Facial skin analysis, treatment and maintenance is the core of the work, with whole-body care offered alongside. Clients are seen one at a time. After the analysis, the client is given recommendations and decides on the treatment. The salon describes its services as premier day spa services, a claim it makes about itself.

Facial options run from a short mini facial to micro-current facials, including a version that adds a glycolic peel and a lift treatment for the eyes, laugh lines and cheekbone area. Chemical peels include glycolic, Jessner, acne and rosacea options, and are offered on the face, neck or hands. Microdermabrasion can be booked for small areas or the full body. Waxing and tinting, and a range of massage styles, round out the menu. Micro-current treatments are not offered during pregnancy, and massage is available to men only when prescribed for a specific medical condition or on referral.

Skin analysis guides each visit, and treatment is shaped by what the client chooses from the recommendations.

The salon describes its setting as outfitted and maintained at museum quality.
