Planning your wedding day

Ultrabeauty Day Spa can make the preparation for your wedding day easy and delightful.
The first rule of thumb is to begin to plan your wedding day 6 months prior. Start with a stress free, bonding experience with your friends, family and wedding party with a pampering bachelorette party. We offer a variety of massages, facials, body wrapping, hydrotherapy, sauna, steam and more. Some ideas for your bachelorette party are featured on our website. Click on Wedding & Bridal Party to choose the package that is most desirable for your party. We always work with you to make this party memorable and enjoyable.

Bridal consultation

For your wedding day you want to look your best and you want your mother and bridesmaids to look fabulous as well.  We recommend that the bride meet with a hair stylist and makeup artist 1 month prior to the wedding. Usually it is very helpful to bring pictures of the gown, veil, jewelry as well as clippings from wedding magazines.

Makeup

Inspired by any look you choose in a bridal magazine we will put together a look that is right for you. Today high-def video requires the most natural makeup. Ultrabeauty Salon offers airbrush make up. It does not matter if you have bad skin or did not have enough sleep –the airbrush make up covers it all.

Hair up do’s

The hair do is the most important element for a bride to look beautiful. A lot of brides are wearing their hair down to look more natural. Ultrabeauty  Salon offers many different styles of up do’s: half-up, half-down, styles that combine a partial up do with long loose sections that may be curly or straight. Some brides wants looks with long, loose unstructured  waves pinned back under a veil with minimal head pieces. Brides who want their hair down and curly can run into problems with their hair do surviving the ceremony, dancing, humidity and still hold the shape for the camera. Ultrabeauty Salon stylists will do their best to help you prepare for this.
To keep you hair healthy you should start to deep condition your hair weeks before the ceremony. Also, a keratin treatment will help your hair look healthy and shiny.
Lastly many brides like to decorate their hair style with rhinestones, artificial flowers or a natural look of fresh flowers. Every up do has a story and every bride who passes through Ultrabeauty Salon this season make that story happily ever after.

Simply Smooth Keratin Treatment

Simply the finest in keratin replenishing hair care.

Formaldehyde free.

Simply Smooth Keratin Treatment will Eliminate Fizz 100%!

Reduce Curls 25-50%!

Repair Damage, Keratin Depleted Hair!

Cut Drying & Styling Time By More Than 50% Each Day!

Heals Split Hair, Helping hair Grow!

What is Keratin Treatment? It is a revolutionary process that softens, shines, straightens and makes hair healthy. It penetrates hair repairing internal damage and coats hair preventing further damage. The results are smooth, silky and straight hair. It is not a chemical that restructures the hair. It is a replenishing treatment that reconditions and protects the hair from water and heat damage while enhancing it's natural shine. This Brazilian treatment DOES NOT use strong chemicals to open and close the hair cuticle in an effort to straighten it. It only coats the hair. It does not break the bonds of the hair shaft like straighteners do. Keratin is a natural substance which makes up approximately 88% of hair.

 Simply Smooth Keratin Treatment products use the highest quality, purest keratin derived from botanicals and human hair. Using TWO types of quality keratin increases the performance of the treatment. Keratin from human hair goes further into the cuticle than other forms of keratin derived artificially or from animals. Keratin from botanicals have larger molecules that sit outside the cuticle and gently melt into it. Using these two quality forms of keratin allows the formula to penetrate from inside and out of the hair cuticle, providing better smoothing performance through a natural, healthier process.

Advantages of Keratin Smoothing: As opposed to other smoothing processes like Japanese straightening, Simply Smooth Keratin Treatment leaves hair healthy. Keratin is a natural conditioner. The gentle Simply Smooth formula is also enriched with vitamins from plants, apple pulp and vanillin (a single molecule component isolated from vanilla). The formula is so gentle in fact; hair can be colored or highlighted the same day. And unlike other keratin treatments out there, Simply Smooth won't alter lighter shades of color treated hair.

Brazilian treatment is not permanent. It naturally fades out of the hair. The wave or curl will gradually come back in about 2 - 3 months. The hair will stay soft, shiny and healthy looking. The more you do the treatment the better condition the hair becomes. The treatment also makes the hair very manageable. It will require less blow drying time and results will be very good with a flat iron.
The application process lasts anywhere from 1.5 to 4 hours depending on the length and thickness of the hair. After the product is applied, it is sealed with a hot iron which traps moisture, hydrates the hair and creates a glossy finish. Results are visible immediately after the treatment is completed, clients are amazed to say the least. Your hair will look healthy and youthful, just as it did when you were a child.

Taking care of your hair after the Keratin Treatment is very important. Simply Smooth offers variety of home care use products after the treatment. Please, check our online store to purchase shampoo, conditioner and styling products according to your hair type. The amount of time required to blow dry and style hair will decrease dramatically; in some cases it will be wash and go. This treatment restores hair resiliency: humidity, rain or sweat will no longer affect the hairstyle. No more frizzy hair!
The results last two to four months. The treatment fades progressively as hair is washed. As clients repeat the treatment every few months or so, you will be able to observe the improved quality of hair grown after the Keratin Treatment was applied.


The most needed products after keratin treatment:
Simply Straight XTEND Keratin Replenishing Shampoo
Simply Straight PRE-CLEAN Purifying Shampoo
Simply Straight XTEND Keratin Replenishing Conditioner
Simply Straight Keratin Finishing Gloss
Simply Straight Keratin Calming Balm

How often should I get a pedicure?

In 2000 10 women on the David Letterman show were asked if they had a pedicure and only one of them answered yes. In 2010 you can ask the same question and 9 out of 10 women will likely say they have pedicure.

What is pedicure? It is a service you can get in professional salon or spa that includes removing dry skin from the sole of the feet, exfoliation of the skin, shaping of toe nails and cuticles, foot massage and finally, toe nail polish. At Ultrabeauty Day Spa we provide upgraded pedicures that include services such a reflexology massage, a green tea pedicure, hot honey and more.

But the question is how often do we need to do pedicure? The answer is at least once a month. We all spend a lot of time on our feet. Calluses, or the dry skin on bottom our feet make our feet, is very uncomfortable. Sometimes it burns or itches and creates a lot of discomfort. Removing calluses makes your feet lighter, bringing oxygen to your skin. In addition, as toe nails grow and you can see when polish was last applied. The skin on your legs gets dry and flakes, making the exfoliation and foot massage, especially with added reflexology,  just the treat you need a pedicure!

Call us at 215-969-0299 and treat yourself with wonderful and therapeutic treatment to improve your feet and well being.

We highly recommend the use of at home products between the pedicures. Check out our OPI and Gena products:

Gena Pedi Soak 8.5 oz-Excellent choice to start your treatment at home, soak for 5 min.
Gena Pedi Scrub 16 oz-Apply on the sole of your feet
OPI Pedicure Soak 8.5 oz Start with this great Soothing Aroma-therapeutic soak
OPI Pedicure Espresso Scrub 4.2 oz. Uses energizing caffeine and a rich coffee to slough away dead skin and calluses. Very popular choice!
OPI Professional Pedicure File Quickly reduces and smoothes calluses.

Professional pedicure are still the best. Do not forget to make an appointment at Ultrabeauty Day Spa once a month for this wonderful treatment.
                                   LOVE YOUR FEET!

Airbrush Tanning



Ultrabeauty Day Spa offers an Airbrush Spray Tanning Service. Airbrush Tan with scrub is a great way to get a tan that lasts a week while having soft exfoliated skin. It makes for an even, beautiful glow or sun kissed skin without the chance of damage from UV rays.

We begin with the exfoliation. The smoother your skin is the more even the tan will be. After showering, the skin is dried and we apply moisturizer to prevent tanning lines. You are then ready for a tan.

Before we begin airbrushing we'll help you choose a skin tone and recommend procedures and products to help you maintain your new tan, as well as the health of your skin. Applying our specially blended tanning formula is easy with our professional airbrush. Our tanning formula is not a dye and will not rub off on your clothes or wash off in the pool. It fades gradually, just like a suntan, and usually lasts up to two weeks, depending on your skin.  We will spray tan your entire body while avoiding fingers and toes. You will dry and go home with a beautiful tan.

Wait at least 8 hours before showering or rinsing your body after your tan is applied. At your first shower after tanning, expect about 25% - 30% of the tan to wash off. This is normal and helps blend in any dark areas. We recommend you wear dark, loose clothing immediately following your tanning session, until your first shower. Your new tan is now complete. It will fade slowly over the next week or two. Make sure to moisturize your skin after every shower and, if you're going outside in the sun, apply sun block as you normally would to protect your skin from the sun's harmful UV rays. Keep your skin healthy and your tan will look better and last longer.
