The Right Touch…Salons and Spas in Seattle

Top Salon and Spa Treatments are Always in Style Whatever the Season or the City

(STYLUS SALON IN Belltown, Seattle)

Here are two can’t misses for travel tresses and tired toes.

Stylus Salon
Stylus Salon in hip Belltown, comparable to New York’s Soho is a Seattle city center must and a great place to send your visiting clients. This artistically driven salon with it’s sleek minimalist style doubles as an art gallery and a party space by night with rollaway stations that seamlessly meld into the chic airy space adorned with crystal chandeliers. If you pop in day or night you’re sure to be styled and inspired.

Upstairs, proprietor Robert, formerly of famed Gary Manuel Seattle salon, (named Best Hair by Elle Mag 2008), creates, cuts and colors alongside the city’s top stylists. Pop in for a cut, color, blow out or touch up of your make up and hair. By the time you leave, “You’ve got that look.”

Pre hair and make up, slip in to the lower level to The Stylus Spa where the lights are low and your pampering is high on their list. Their expert Spa Professionals specialize in giving clients a truly luxurious spa experience, the feel of a full spa day in and around two hours or less. Time management and top services are equal priorities.

The most luxurious treatment and by far their most requested is the Stylus Celebrity treatment where they customize the Stylus Pedicure with your Stylus Facial. They infuse each treatment with seasonal ingredients, offering results oriented skincare benefits as well as a unique sensory experience.

Stunning Spa director May Ling, a vintage diva and Seattle’s award winning Brow designer and Lash tinting Artist uses top products and innovative techniques. It’s a great gal day with May on one end gossing about the city’s can’t miss vintage haunts while Kimberly Sayer works wonder on your fingers and toes.

Aside from your soon to be sandal worthy feet, Kimberly will work on your tired toes enlightening you as to how to keep them in great elongated health, despite their continued elevation. Kimberly, like May has a series of awards and is In Style Magazine’s go to gal for the season’s chosen colors. You can see why as you quietly covet the somewhat silver hue she is wearing, a near perfect fit for her enticing eyes and style.

All Manicure and Pedicure guests receive a warm neck cozy to relieve stress, big blankets and all of their Pedicurist’s background’s are in reflexology. Aside from the relaxation, new face, fingers and toes, it is a truly delicious way to spend the day, or the mere two hours. Time management aside, it’s the one time you wish it lasted longer.

(SALON SOMA’S ROMAN WADSWORTH WORKING HIS MAGIC)

Salon SoMa
Step outside of Seattle’s city center and it’s anything but provincial. Bellevue, a mere twenty minutes from down town is a buzz of tech activity. Salon SoMa in the heart of downtown Bellevue has city slickers and a bevy of Bellevue beauties literally lined up to sit in Roman’s salon seat.

Roman Wadsworth, an LA native and child prodigy has moved to Seattle where he has since found his Nirvana. Once hitting all the right notes on stage, the salon is now his place to create and the beauties, his groupies. Like any great artist he has coined a phrase, or in this case, a look. Roman known for his Bellevue Blonde, not to be confused with the Bergdorf Blonde, is taking the So Cal color to new heights with levels and layers of sophistication.

Roman takes the time to take you in, collaborating with you for your new look, be it cut, color or style. Brunettes fear not as he’s equally adept and inspired on your side of the color wheel. It’s just that the Bellevue Blonde is a movement.

If you drop in to Salon SoMa, he is a can’t miss, as he’s the only male in on site at SoMa. I suggest calling prior, as his dance card is booked several weeks in advance. If you or your clients are heading that way, book early. Prices are incredibly competitive. The down side is, once hooked; it can be costly commuting every six weeks.
