FAQs from Recently Expanded Modern Enhancement Salon and Day Spa

Nov. 22, 2010 - PRLog -- MODERN ENHANCEMENTS STARTED IN 1998 AS A HAIR EXTENSION STUDIO AND HAS GROWN INTO A FULL SERVICE SALON AND DAY SPA.

While our specialty is hair extensions, we also offer Brazilian blowouts, haircuts and colors, Sothys skin and body care, Therapeutic massage, luxurious body scrubs and wraps, a hydrotherapy tub, a couple’s “Togetherness Retreat,” a locker room with showers and steam room, manicures and pedicures. We have an amazing Esthetician who performs facials, peels,
and microdermabrasion, as well as Xtreme Lashes eyelash extensions. It’s the perfect place for a day of beauty and pampering, as well as an unforgettable bonding experience for a group gathering or girl’s night!

WHAT ARE SOME OF YOUR MORE POPULAR SERVICES?

Hair extensions have always been our number one service, since they have been our specialty from day one. Brazilian blowouts and eyelash extensions are extremely popular treatments as well. Quality color and cuts, provided by our talented Stylists, bring in a considerable amount of repeat business. Our Glotherapeutic Chemical peels are in demand, as more and more clients see the dramatic improvements peels have on their skin.

WHAT IS THE BIGGEST MISCONCEPTION ABOUT HAIR EXTENSIONS?

People assume extensions are purely fanciful, or only for “celebrity-style” glamour, assuming the only option is to add long, thick hair. While this is entirely possible and the desire of many women, there are options for everyone! They are not just for cosmetic reasons, and can be applied to increase volume and camouflage hair loss. We have a lot of clients who suffer from severe hair loss and thus, have low self-esteem. It truly brings us happiness to be able to offer these women solutions they did not think possible, and watch their intense joy and increase in self confidence! Another mistaken assumption is that extensions cause damage to the hair. When applied properly, by an experienced and skilled professional, hair extensions will not make your hair fall out or cause damage. Some people are concerned about the amount of time it takes to have extensions applied. Many clients are surprised to learn that they can go on their lunch break, and return to work in an hour, with longer, thicker hair!

WHAT ARE SEMI-PERMANENT EYELASH EXTENSIONS AND HOW LONG DO THEY LAST?

We are proud to offer Xtreme Lashes eyelash extensions- the most respected, highest quality, semi permanent lash extensions available. They are meticulously applied by our experienced Lash Artist, one at a time, with a surgical grade adhesive. The Xtreme lashes adhere to your natural lashes, and will fall out with your natural lashes shed cycle. They last as long as you maintain them, with touch-ups every few weeks to replace the ones that have shed. The product is perfectly safe and has enhanced the confidence of many clients, who truly enjoy the “pop” the lashes bring to their eyes! An experienced Lash Stylist is a must to achieve the most natural results!

ARE THERE ANY MAKEOVERS THAT STAND OUT IN YOUR MEMORY FROM YOUR MANY YEARS OF PROVIDING BEAUTY ENHANCEMENTS?

We have created many incredibly beautiful transformations for our clients! One that really stands out is an amazing woman who had just undergone chemotherapy and radiation for cancer. She came in with hair that was about an inch long. We applied an integration piece and 175 Hair Dreams extensions, which recreated the long, thick hair she had previously enjoyed. It was inspiring to see this woman look at herself in the mirror with such pride and excitement after having endured so much. The best part is that while wearing hair extensions, her natural hair was able to continuously grow, and she is now back to having her own beautiful head of hair! We love being able to restore the spark in a woman’s eyes when she looks at herself. We also see quite a few military wives who want to surprise their husbands with a new look, when he returns from being deployed. Those are always very rewarding makeovers!

IN THESE TOUGHER ECONOMIC TIMES, IT CAN BE A STRUGGLE TO KEEP UP WITH A REGULAR BEAUTY ROUTINE. DO YOU HAVE SUGGESTIONS FOR GETTING THE MOST FROM YOUR SALON VISITS?

Using the right products at home is the best investment women can make to maintain the health of their hair and skin between salon and spa visits! Quality products are, in fact, the smartest way to protect the initial investment of coming into the salon for your hair or skin treatments. They play an integral part in the client’s ability to achieve similar results at home. Just as regular exercise and the foods we eat everyday determine our bodies’ health and beauty, the same is true for hair and skin treatments in the spa, and the products we use on a daily basis. We have researched and carefully selected the finest hair and skin products available in the beauty industry. We offer only the best so that our clients can always have the beautiful hair and skin they desire!
