Spa scene grows in Liberty Lake

A pair of spas in the 23000 block of East Appleway Avenue are revamping locations that have a history of spa-like service and personal pampering.

After a brief reorganization earlier this year, Spa Zenaida, 23801 E. Appleway Ave., Suite 200, is operating Tuesdays through Saturdays with three independent contractors offering full hair and nail services, spray tans, esthetician services and eyelash extensions.

"We're very flexible with our hours and we really work around everyone's plans," Hair stylist Jessy Manderville said. "We're happy to work with people to make sure people are able to make time to relax with today's hectic schedules."

She said the three operators would like to expand Spa Zenaida's services, although something along those lines may be a ways down the road. In addition to Maderville, YoungMi Kim works in the space as a nail technician and Cyndi Prichard works as an esthetician and eyelash expert.

"Our dream is to make it like a total wellness spa," Manderville said. "We'd love to offer detox services and massage; we just don't know when we'll be ready for that."

Splash photos by Kelly Moore Adhara Studio owner Vicky Anderson is currently renovating the former Anew Start Rejuvenation Center location to make way for a full service salon and spa offering facials, waxing, make up application, eyelash tinting and extensions, hair cuts and colors and custom airbrush tanning. Tanning services for fitness and physique competitions will also be available when the spa opens in May.

Just a little further up the street at 23505 E. Appleway Ave., Suite 104 and 105, Adhara Studio is preparing to open its doors soon in the former Anew Start Rejuvenation Center location.

"I raised three boys, and I was in business for 14 years," owner Vicky Anderson, a licensed esthetician, said. "I never really got that girly-fix, so that's what we're doing here."

Billed as an "ageless beauty studio," services include facials, waxing, make up application, eyelash tinting and extensions, hair cuts and colors and custom airbrush tanning. Tanning services for fitness and physique competitions are also available.

The salon is an expansion of a previous operation based in Coeur d'Alene.

"When I was running the studio in Coeur d'Alene, it was just me, to it kind of stretched my hours, and I didn't get to interact with people as much as I wanted to," Anderson said. "The full salon really is an exciting project for me."

Anderson said the salon would open in phases. Phase one will include manicure and pedicure stations, an esthetician and makeup area and an airbrush tanning room. Phase two will include an expansion into a neighboring suite to house all the hair stations.

Anderson said a grand opening is scheduled for mid-May, but interested clients can e-mail Vicky@adharastudio.com for earlier appointments. For more information, visit www.adharastudio.com.
