The Beauty Bar Salon

The Beauty Bar Salon is set up as a group of private studios. Each beauty professional runs an independent business with their own business license, so the salon brings together several separate practices under one address in Auburn.

Booking is by appointment only, Monday through Friday from 9am to 6pm and Saturday from 9am to 5pm, and the salon is closed on Sundays. New guests choose a professional, pick a service and book online. Appointments and payments go directly to that professional, who also handles gift certificates and sets their own cancellation policy. Guests who arrive more than 15 minutes late may have services refused or changed, and fees can apply.

The salon states that its mission is to empower modern women through personalized style and beauty experiences. Hair services cover balayage, custom color, highlights, dimensional and corrective color, precision and classic cuts, and hair extensions. Skin services include clinical grade facials built around a routine for each client, and hair removal is done with a coconut-based wax. Nail services cover nail design, shaping and sculpted gel extensions, lash services range from classic extensions to voluminous styles, and makeup is offered for events from day looks to full glam. Spray tans use custom solutions matched to skin tone and the shade the client wants.

The salon's stated mission centers on personalized style and beauty, with each professional running their own studio and tailoring services such as color, facial routines and spray tan solutions to the client.

Private studios sit around a larger front room, where guests usually meet one of the two professionals working there.
