Vacations are all about unwinding—but let’s be real: nothing feels better than stepping into that beach resort or city escape feeling totally put together. If your next getaway is on the horizon, now’s the time to prep your hair and skin so you can feel confident, glowing, and low-maintenance the entire trip. Here’s how we help our guests get vacation-ready with services and products designed to do all the heavy lifting—so you don’t have to.
1. Get Glowing with an Airbrush Tan
Skip the streaky self-tanner and step into a custom, hand-applied airbrush tan at The Bombshell Spa. Our technicians use a precision technique to match your skin tone and deliver an even, sun-kissed glow—no orange tones, no blotchy ankles. Your tan will develop over the next 24 hours and can last up to 7 days with proper care (more on that below).
Pro tip: Exfoliate with FarmHouse Fresh Sunny Dippin’ Body polish a day or two before your appointment, and moisturize daily after to extend the life of your tan. We’ll walk you through all the aftercare, too!
2. Wax It + Forget It
Beach days and poolside lounging call for smooth skin—without the daily hassle of shaving. Body sugaring and waxing are our go-to vacation prep services for hair removal. Whether you’re booking a Brazilian or a full leg, sugaring is gentle on skin and great for reducing irritation and ingrown hairs.
Bonus: You’ll stay smooth for weeks, meaning you can toss the razor in your carry-on for good.
3. Hair That Travels Well
Humidity, salt water, sun exposure—vacation can be hard on your hair. Before you go, book a glossing treatment, a trim, or a full refresh with one of our stylists. We’ll help you decide the best move for your hair goals and your itinerary.
For at-home (or hotel room) care, pack:
- Keune Care Shampoo + Conditioner: A travel must-have for repairing and hydrating dry or damaged hair.
- Kevin Murphy Hair.Resort Spray: This texturizing spray is perfect for that effortless beachy wave look—even if you’re nowhere near the ocean.
We also offer styling sessions to help you learn vacation-friendly updos, braids, or heatless styles that look amazing and last for days.
4. Skin That’s Hydrated + Happy
Travel can stress out your skin—but not if you prep with Dermalogica and FarmHouse Fresh. Book a customized facial before you go to calm, detox, or deeply hydrate based on your skin type.
Our estheticians can also help you build a mini skincare routine that travels well, featuring:
- Dermalogica Daily Microfoliant: A gentle rice-based powder exfoliator that leaves your skin ultra smooth and bright.
- FarmHouse Fresh Moon Dip Body Mousse: Luxurious hydration in a whipped, fast-absorbing formula—perfect post-sun.
- Dermalogica Calm Water Gel: Ideal for travel-weary or sensitive skin, this weightless hydrator keeps your glow going.
5. The Finishing Touch: Low-Maintenance Color + Cuts
Before your flight, invest in a hair color service that grows out beautifully. Think balayage, face-framing highlights, or a root melt that keeps your look fresh even weeks after your appointment.
Don’t forget a travel-size hair care kit—we carry Keune and Kevin Murphy minis to help you pack light without sacrificing your routine.
