/0 Comments/in , , /by

Spring is officially here! With summer just around the corner, there’s no escaping the onslaught of events headed your way. From music festivals to graduations and weddings, you’ll want to look and feel your best as you shed your winter clothing and bare some summer skin.

Whether you’re headed to the water park or gearing up for a summer vacation, now is the perfect time to transition from a ghostly ghoul into bronzed goddess. At unDONE Salon, we offer the perfect Boise spray tan solution to help you show off the perfect sun-kissed glow as you prepare to head out to the beach this summer!

Boise Spray Tan Benefits

Quick Results

A Boise spray tan is the quickest way to a gorgeous glow. In less than half an hour, our aesthetician will provide you with a skin nourishing VINO spray tan that not only looks great but helps fight free radical damage while protecting your skin from the natural elements.

Don’t risk a golden glow in a tanning bed that comes along with some detrimental side effects. At unDONE Salon, we can help you achieve the tan you want in a matter of minutes with fast drying, quick absorbing results without any stickiness or developing odor.

No Tan Lines

No matter what you do, a day at the beach usually results in unwanted tan lines. With a Boise spray tan, you can get a healthy glow without any tan lines so you can show off your skin and skip the straps with confidence.  

Lasting Results

A Boise spray tan will last between 7 – 10 days, depending on how well you care for it. After the tan is airbrushed, it’s important not to swim or shower for at least 8 hours. Once the required setting time has passed, you can shower but don’t scrub! Pat your skin dry without rubbing and make sure to moisturize, moisturize, moisturize!

Perfect Results

While there are a number of sunless tanner substitutes for a Boise spray tan, these products usually turn out uneven and orange while staining your hands and feet. Not to mention they come with an unpleasant odor caused by the chemicals and formaldehyde used in their formulas.

Fortunately, though, we can provide you with a perfect Boise spray tan in minutes without any chemicals or streaking while leaving your skin soft and moisturized. At unDONE Salon, we can customize the color you want while providing you with a beautiful, natural looking tan without any unwanted side effects or harmful ingredients.

Body Waxing: Are You Spring Break Smooth?

/0 Comments/in , , /by

With summer just around the corner, it’s time for spring break! Now is the perfect time to get a smooth, bikini-ready body to look and feel your best. At unDONE Salon, we offer a wide range of body waxing and spray tanning services to help you get ready to bare a little skin!  

Check out the following skin care solution tips to prep your skin for the warm weather ahead.

Exfoliate Your Skin

After a long, dry winter, it’s important to exfoliate your skin to remove any dead skin cells before a body waxing treatment. Doing so will help detoxify your skin while preventing any ingrown hairs, bumps and blemishes. Exfoliation also helps to promote circulation allowing your skin to breath. For a total body exfoliation, try using a loofah, body scrub or dry body brush to maintain radiant, healthy skin.

Start Body Waxing Early

With routine body waxing treatments, you will reduce hair growth while ensuring you have longer periods of smooth, hair-free skin. Body waxing removes hair at the root, which not only discourages future follicle growth, but damages its ability to grow it back. By body waxing early, you will give yourself a chance to eliminate those course stubborn hairs before summer.

Body Wax First, Spray Tan Second

While body waxing helps to exfoliate the skin, it can also make your skin more prone to sunburn. That’s why it’s important to stay out of the sun for at least 24-48 hours after a body waxing treatment. If it’s a tanned look you want, skip the sunburn with a Boise spray tan at unDONE Salon. We offer a VINO spray tan that’s derived from plant sources like muscadine grapes that will leave your skin soft and moisturized. Not only is it safe to use, but effective at achieving your golden glow goals.

Stay Hydrated

Once you’ve achieved smooth, tanned skin, it’s important to stay hydrated by drinking lots of water. Not only is drinking water important for overall health, it will provide you with radiant, healthy, younger looking skin. Without sufficient amounts of water, a lack of hydration will turn your skin dry causing it to become tight, and flaky. Dry skin is also less resilient, making it more prone to wrinkles.

Book Your Appointment Now!

By following the tips above, you’ll have bikini-ready skin in no time! Located near the Boise Towne Square Mall, unDONE Salon provides a large variety of hair, waxing, nail and tanning services. If you would like to learn more or to schedule an appointment, call us at (208) 287-2010. We’ll help make sure your skin is silky smooth and breathtakingly beautiful just in time to show it off!

 

Wake up Your Winter Feet With A Boise Pedicure

/0 Comments/in , /by

Are your toes flip-flop ready? After a cold, hard winter, there’s nothing like the first pedicure of spring. At unDONE Salon, we can not only make your nails look pretty and your feet feel great but trim your nails, control calluses and moisturize skin with a relaxing foot massage to help relieve tension and stimulate blood flow.

Now Is The Time To Bare Some Skin In Celebration!

Besides hair and skin treatments, a Boise pedicure may be the single most popular beauty treatment offered at unDONE Salon. After all, who doesn’t want pretty toes and have their feet rubbed down by a master nail technician? A Boise pedicure not only feels great and is great for your skin but leaves your feet looking their best. If you’ve never experienced the luxury of a Boise pedicure, we’d like to present you with the following list of services we provide to help throw the time-consuming task of doing it yourself out the window!

#1 Nail Polish Removal

It might seem obvious but removing your old nail polish is an important step to start off your Boise pedicure. At unDONE Salon, our master nail technician will clear your nails and remove all traces of old polish. Once removed, you are now ready for a relaxing, and pampering treatment.

#2 Soak & Massage

Once all traces of nail polish are removed, a basin will be filled with warm, soapy water to soak your feet into. Soaking your feet will help soften dry, rough skin making them easier to work with. Once your feet have soaked for 5-10 minutes, your master nail technician will gently pat your feet dry with a towel. Next your feet will be gently buffed to remove any dry, rough skin. Once smooth, your feet will then be slathered with a thick, rich moisturiser during a relaxing foot and calf massage.

#3 Nail & Cuticle Care

Next, your master nail technician will apply some cuticle cream before cutting or gently pushing your cuticles back. Your nails will also be trimmed and filed into an attractive, uniform shape to reduce ingrown nails and improve their overall appearance.

#4 Polish & Dry

Once your nails have been filed, a polish of your choice will be applied in long, even strokes between a base and top coat to help boost its longevity and durability. Depending on the polish applied, your feet may be placed under a special UV lamp to help set and cure the nail varnish.  

Contact unDONE Salon

Getting a professional Boise pedicure is a great way to shed the winter blues. If you’re ready to kick off your socks and unleash your toes this spring, a little maintenance and a dash of your favorite color will have your feet ready for the sunny days ahead.

What’s Your Favorite Boise Manicure?

/0 Comments/in , , /by

We all love a good Boise manicure, and most start out the same way. However, some people like to keep it simple, while others opt for something more creative. That’s why it’s important to learn about all the different types of manicures to help you decide which one suits you best. After all, your nails say a lot about who you are. Whether you want the latest standout design or a simple nude polish, it’s really up to you!

Popular Types of Boise Manicures

Basic Manicure

If you’ve never received a professional Boise manicure, you might want to start out with a basic shape, and polish. During a basic manicure, your nail technician at unDONE Salon will tame your cuticles, and ask what kind of nails and length you prefer. Options include square, oval, squoval, or the popular stiletto shape.

Once the shape of your nails has been defined, your hands will be moisturized with a basic massage before a base coat is applied. After that, a polish of your choice will be applied followed by a top coat. Once your nails have been polished, your hands will be placed under a nail dryer to complete the drying process.

French Manicure

The ever-classic French manicure is a go-to style for anyone wanting a classic, classy, neutral nail. During this Boise manicure treatment, a clear, pale pink or beige polish of your choice will be applied over the entire nail with white polish along the tip. The end result will provide you with healthy, vibrant nails perfect for all occasions.

Gel Manicure

If you want a long-lasting Boise manicure without the commitment of having acrylic nails, a gel manicure is a good option. All the steps of a basic manicure are taken, except the gel polish requires curing under a special UV light. Once cured, gel polish will last much longer than normal nail polish and is less prone to chipping. Quick, bullet-proof and glossy, a gel manicure can last up to two weeks.

Shellac Manicure

A Shellac manicure is a long lasting nail polish that is cured with a UV light. Like a gel manicure, Shellac nails can last up to two weeks or longer without chipping or breaking. However, your natural nails will continue to grow underneath which will require needed maintenance appointments. While removal requires soaking your nails in acetone, the biggest difference between a Shellac manicure and a gel manicure is that Shellac nails are less damaging and take about ⅓ of the time to remove.

Contact unDONE Salon

With a number of Boise manicures to choose from, you can have any design tailored to fit your unique lifestyle. In addition to all the ever-changing nail trends, the professional nail technician at unDONE Salon can help you try new ideas while pampering you with a relaxing manicure treatment in the process.

Lift Your Spirits This Winter With A Boise Spray Tan!

/0 Comments/in , , /by

Dreaming of summer? With winter in full swing, you’re probably noticing how pale your skin is each time you glance in the mirror. With less time spent outdoors, the less chance we have to soak up the sun that creates the “summer glow” we all strive for. But cold weather shouldn’t automatically mean pale skin. Spray tanning is the perfect option for those looking for a convenient way to tan even if it’s cold outside.

Not sure why you should tan during the winter? Check out the following reasons why winter is the perfect time for a subtle golden glow:

The Benefits of a Boise Spray Tan

Confidence & Personal Improvement

Just like maintaining a Boise manicure or pedicure, it’s always important to take the time to do something for yourself. Things, like buying a new outfit, or taking a relaxing bath are ways you can treat yourself while improving your overall happiness. Another way to improve your self-confidence during the winter is to provide your skin with a makeover with a Boise spray tan. The simple act of making yourself feel and look better will change your outlook and mood, especially if it’s freezing and miserable outside. Even if nobody notices your tan, you will feel confident each time you look in the mirror.

Impress Your Significant Other

The only other person who will most likely see your bikini body this winter will be your significant other. Valentine’s day would be the perfect opportunity to showcase a warm, bronze glow. It’s always nice to receive the compliments you crave while feeling confident in an intimate setting. A Boise spray tan can provide you with the summer skin you crave while making you look and feel beautiful.

Special Events

Another great reason to get a Boise spray tan this winter are the special events you plan on attending. Instead of having pale, dry skin, imagine showing up with a realistic, moisturized summer glow! Look and feel your best during the following celebrations:

  • Valentine’s Day
  • Spring Break Vacation
  • Work Events
  • Parties

Boost Your Self-Confidence!

Just because it’s cold outside and you may be covered up doesn’t mean a Boise spray tan won’t make your clothes and fashion choices look better. Give yourself a needed confidence boost during the depressing winter months! Whatever the reason or occasion a Boise spray tan is a good option for anyone wanting to look and feel their best. There is nothing like looking in the mirror and feeling beautiful with warm, bronzed skin.

At unDONE Salon, we offer a naturally formulated Boise spray tan that is perfect for obtaining a summer bronzed glow while fortifying your skin’s natural defenses.  We use a skin nourishing VINO Bronzing Mist that not only provides a beautiful Boise spray tan but helps fight free radical damage along with the signs of aging while protecting your skin from the natural elements.

The Benefits of a Winter Facial at unDONE Salon

/0 Comments/in , , /by

Winter in Idaho can be a wonderful time of year with the beautiful snow and fun outdoor activities. However, the harsh cold air combined with dry indoor heat can wreak havoc on your skin. That’s why the Estheticians at unDONE Salon recommend a winter facial treatment to help keep your complexion smooth, healthy, and beautiful.

Despite the common misconception that you are safe from the sun during the winter, harsh UV rays can penetrate even the cloudiest skies causing damage to your skin. This coupled with the   effect of cold winds and lack of moisture in the air can leave your skin dry and irritated.

A winter facial at unDONE Salon can help counteract these effects by improving circulation, buffing away dry skin, and restoring moisture and hydration.

Stimulate & Exfoliate

By improving circulation to the face, we stimulate our skin’s natural renewal, leaving a younger, smoother complexion. Stimulation can come in a variety of forms including exfoliants, masks and peels that help to remove dead skin cells, revealing the new skin underneath. Since our skin changes over time it’s also just as important to use the right skin care products. Proper exfoliation helps the ingredients in your skin care products to absorb more deeply, maximising your skin care results.  

Chemical Peels

Speaking of exfoliation, winter is the perfect time for a chemical peel treatment. A chemical peel is an exfoliation treatment used to combat a wide range of skin care concerns like aging, sun damage, acne, mild scarring and uneven skin tone. Depending on the strength and formulation, a chemical peel will also help to battle fine lines, pigmentation and smooth tone texture while ultimately slowing down the aging process.

Deep Cleansing

Deep cleansing is important for all skin types but particularly to those who suffer from acne. A winter facial at our Boise hair salon will help to clear your pores while promoting healing and restoration. While daily cleansing may seem adequate for makeup removal, a winter facial will provide you a deeper cleansing result by removing unwanted dirt, makeup, and grime deep within your pores helping your skin to breath.

Moisturise

Finally, the professional skin care estheticians at unDONE Salon will nourish your complexion with a moisturiser best suited for your skin care needs. In general, our skin requires more moisture and protection during the winter. That’s why it’s important to remain vigilant about protecting our skin from the sun and harsh winter elements with an SPF moisturizer with protective ingredients.

Schedule An Appointment

One of the greatest benefits of a winter facial at unDONE Salon is the deep relaxation, stress relief and inner warmth that comes from taking the time to nurture ourselves. The professional skin care estheticians at unDONE Salon will provide you with a thorough skin analysis and consultation to help you look and feel your best this winter. Our elite team Boise hair salon stylists, estheticians, and nail technicians can help you maintain the perfect hair, skin and nails for any season.

The Important Benefits of a Winter Pedicure Boise Treatment

/0 Comments/in , , /by

With your feet constantly covered up during the cold winter months a pedicure is probably the last thing on your mind. When our toes aren’t on full display it’s common for us to feel as though our feet are no longer a concern. However, nothing could be further from the truth. That’s why unDONE Salon would like to provide you with the following reasons why it’s important to maintain routine pedicure Boise treatments.

#1 Relax & Relieve Stress

When people think of a pedicure, they tend to visualize pretty toes. While polished toes are a nice touch, a pedicure Boise treatment is much more than that. While we have adopted the standard idea that a pedicure is only needed during the summer, the truth is it’s better to maintain your pedicure Boise treatments during the winter months. Why? Simply put, a pedicure does many things for our health and peace of mind.  

When we take the time to relax and have our feet and lower legs worked on during a pedicure Boise treatment, we are unknowingly releasing feel-good endorphins that stimulate relaxation. This stress reducing treatment of receiving a pampering service helps us to let go of the stress that dominates our lives. Before our treatment even begins, we feel more relaxed and less stressed by the minute.

#2 Maintain Critical Hygiene Habits

During a pedicure Boise treatment, critical hygiene habits are taken care of for us. Not only are our nails clipped and polished, our dead skin is scrubbed away. These basic, yet often overlooked services are important when it comes to maintaining healthy legs and feet. When our toenails go untreated and grow too long, the nail presses against the inside of our shoes. This, in turn, can lead to ingrown toenails and bruised nail beds. When we have our nails and cuticles treated, we are allowing them to breathe and continue to grow healthy.

With that in mind, the removal and scrubbing away of dead skin helps activate the regenerative properties of our own bodies which helps our skin maintain its elasticity. It’s not uncommon for us to suffer from dry skin throughout the winter. Maintaining routine pedicure Boise treatments throughout the year will help keep dry skin at bay when it comes to our feet. While applying lotion may seem like a good solution when it comes to dry feet, the lotion cannot absorb when there is a barrier of dead skin between your feet and the lotion. This, in turn, can cause the feeling of itchiness because your skin is smothering. That’s why our brain tells us to scratch it away so our skin can breathe again.

#3 Boost Circulation & Ease Muscle Tension  

During your pedicure Boise treatment, you will receive a lower leg and foot massage. This not only helps you to feel good at the moment but provides you with a relieving massage that will last for days. Massage not only helps to reduce your stress levels, it increases your circulation while promoting elasticity, and easing muscle tension. All of these things are good for your whole body! When your lower legs and feet don’t hurt, you stand and sit straighter, thus improving your posture which will result in less back pain. When your feet don’t hurt you tend to walk lighter, promoting hip movements that can help to alleviate lower back problems.

Maintaining routine pedicure Boise treatments isn’t crazy talk, it’s healthy. When you think about pretty polished toes, think about your summer pedicure. When you think about moisturized, non-itchy skin, think about your winter pedicure. A good pedicure Boise treatment will last you approximately a month. That’s why it’s important to come into unDONE Salon every 4-6 weeks for a pedicure to maintain healthy nails, and feet. Ready to schedule your next pedicure?

Winter Body Waxing Tips

/0 Comments/in , , /by

Many people throughout the Treasure Valley feel that body waxing is only necessary during the hot summer months. However this could be farther from the truth. It’s actually better to start  waxing now rather than wait for warmer weather. While it may not be bathing suit season, and your body isn’t as visible to others, there are a variety of benefits to year-round body waxing:

Reduced Hair Growth

The #1 goal for most people who wax is to eliminate or substantially reduce hair growth on certain areas of their body. Body waxing removes hair at the root, which not only discourages future follicle growth, but damages its ability to grow back. By continuing to wax during the winter, you provide yourself with a chance to eliminate those course stubborn hairs before summer.

Healthier Skin

In the winter, the dry, heated air causes our skin to become tight, dry and flaky. Body waxing helps to exfoliate dead skin cells while encouraging new skin growth at the cellular level. It also helps to increase blood circulation to the surface of the skin. Combined, these benefits help to soften and moisturize your skin, leaving it healthy and beautiful.

Less Pain!

It’s no secret that body waxing isn’t the most comfortable hair removal option. However, when you avoid or go long periods without waxing it can be more painful. The more often you wax, the less painful it will be. Every time you body wax, you weaken the roots of your hair. The hair then grows in finer and thinner making it easier to remove. Over time, body waxing will become relatively pain-free when you have it done consistently.

You Feel Better

Body waxing provides you with sexy-smooth skin. Without unwanted stubble, you just feel better. It boosts your self-confidence, and makes you feel more comfortable. There is no reason to deprive yourself of this when you are covered up during the winter. Enjoy feeling good all year long and keep up your body waxing routine!

Book Your Waxing and Hair Removal Appointment Now!

Winter is the perfect time for body waxing treatments. By keeping up on the process, your skin will look and feel better without all the bumps and irritation caused from shaving. Don’t make the mistake of quitting your routine. Make sure your skin is silky smooth and breathtakingly beautiful just in time to show it off when the weather warms up!


If you have questions about any of our body waxing treatments, the professionals at unDONE are here to help! Call us at (208) 287-2010 for more information or to schedule an appointment.

Celebrate the Holidays with a Boise Manicure from Undone!

/0 Comments/in , , /by

There’s always a special air of excitement during the holiday season. Creating memories, and spending time with friends and loved ones is what makes the following weeks so special. The holidays represent love, sharing, and being together. However, the holiday season is also the time for festive gatherings and entertainment.

Now is the time that we search our closets or go out shopping for the perfect holiday attire. Whether it’s a fun, ugly Christmas sweater or a fancy cocktail outfit, the holiday season is also the perfect time to dress up your nails. When it comes to your next Boise manicure, why not try something new and fun? This winter our talented Boise nail salon technician has put together a list of some ideas to try for Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years!

Thanksgiving

Whether you’re the one hosting or visiting friends and family, your nails should be kept short, and clean to help out with a Thanksgiving meal. For this holiday our Boise nail salon technician suggests a rounder, more oval shaped nail that isn’t too distracting or requires tpp much maintenance. After all, nobody wants to bring a manicure set with them to a Thanksgiving gathering.

For design ideas, try sticking to solid colors like orange, pink, and purple. But keep it soft or dark. The spring and summer seasons are meant for vibrant oranges, pinks and purples among other colors. But for Thanksgiving, both dark and light shades work.

Christmas

Christmas is known for colors like red, green, and winter white. But this holiday, why not focus on darker colors like black, dark grey, maroon, and dark blue? For a splash of style, come to unDONE for a dual tone Boise manicure. Our Boise nail salon technician can balance darker colors with contrasting ones like black and white, dark grey and silver, maroon and gold, and even dark blue and white. For shapes, go for something a little more elongated than the nails for Thanksgiving and choose almond-shaped nails that really stand out from one holiday party to the next!

New Year’s

Ring in the New Year with nails that feel fresh and fun! This New Year, why not switch up your stiletto-styled nails and go for a shape that’s a little gentler with a ballerina nail shape. This style elongates your fingers without making them look as dangerous as stiletto nails. For colors and designs, think glitter. New Year’s is all about champagne, glitter, fireworks, and streamers. Sparkly silver, gold or even rose gold nails will dazzle anyone around you. Not interested in glitter nails? Why not try a metallic chrome manicure instead?
