Poway Academy of Beauty and Spa

Formerly known as The Poway Academy of Hair Design, The Academy of Beauty & Spa in Poway just received a $ 2.5 million make-over to ensure clients feel like they are being fully pampered, but at a fraction of the price. One would never know by looking at the outside of the school, located in a Poway shopping center, that the inside features all of the elements of a posh San Diego day spa. Bamboo adorned-walls, dark wood, a wall fountain, and small stones create tranquility and bring a sense of nature to the space.
The spa features a massage room with 20 beds and boasts a Vichy shower, a water-based massage machine that pours warm water on pampered patrons. Guests can receive a spa pedicure featuring Creative Nail products for only $20 with top-sanitary conditions other salons don’t promise. Hot stone massage and paraffin wax dip are just a couple of the extras options available with a spa manicure at The Academy of Beauty & Spa in Poway.
The hair salon sector has students practicing on mannequin heads like at any beauty school but the ambiance of the academy overshadows its hair academia aesthetics. Down-tempo electronic music and burgundy-metallic chairs give the academy a hip vibe. Long vertical mirrors in front of every back to back station gives an open space feel and allow clients to peek at the back of their work-in-progress ‘dos.
