Oxford Spa Salon
The Oxford Spa Salon is among Oklahoma's best kept secrets for discerning women (and men!) who will not settle for anything but the very best in beauty and relaxation treatments. The Oxford opened in Edmond in November and has been welcomed with open arms by the community.
The name is a tip-of-the-hat to the creative techniques owner Janee Parsons learned while studying beauty therapy and makeup artistry at The Oxford International College of Beauty in England.
The Oxford's extensive line of services includes everything you'd expect to find at a 5-Star spa/salon anywhere in the world for hair, nails and skin treatments and massage therapy - at a surprisingly conservative price. A few of its more popular services include:
·Lash Extensions
·Hair Extensions
· Yuko Japanese Thermal Reconditioning
MINX Nails
·Brazilian Sugaring
·Pregnancy Massage
·Glycolic Peels
· Custom Brow Shaping
· Threading
· ONLINE BOOKING
For brides planning a fall wedding, there is no better place to get "The Look" for you and the entire wedding party.
A great introduction to the quality experience offered by The Oxford is its Signature Facial with Massage, an hour and a half of bliss that can't be described, only experienced. Also ask about the "Afternoon Tea."
"We're so grateful to The Edmond Chamber for the fantastic support it provides us as a small business that's relatively new to the area," Parsons said. "We hope to be vital part of this thriving community for many years to come."
The Oxford Spa Salon (www.theoxfordspasalon.com) is located at 411 N. Bryant in Edmond. Call 471-5252 to schedule an appointment. The Oxford also has a location in the Yukon/Mustang area at 1825 S. Morgan Rd., and for beauty fixes on the go, they offer a mini location at Penn Square Mall. | |
