As Memorial Day approaches, the unofficial start of summer is your perfect excuse to trade in stress for sunshine–and there’s no better way to do it than with a relaxing escape found at a spa. From rejuvenating hydrafacials to shimmering sun-kissed highlights, to a booty workout that turns a pear into a peach, we’ve rounded up the best ways to refresh your body and spirit this long weekend.
Glow Into Summer with a Hydrafacial
After a long winter and spring of unpredictable weather, your skin deserves a reboot. Enter the hydrafacial—a fan-favorite, non-invasive treatment that deeply cleanses, exfoliates, and hydrates, leaving your skin instantly dewy and glowing. It’s a must to replenish your skin’s natural moisture after a rough winter. Whether you’re hitting the beach or a backyard BBQ, a hydrafacial is your go-to for a fresh-faced glow.

Brighten Up with Highlights That Shine
There’s something about Memorial Day that calls for a bold, beautiful change—and hair highlights are a stylish way to welcome the season. Whether you’re going for beachy balayage, golden honey streaks, or platinum pieces, a professional highlight treatment can add depth, brightness, and dimension to your look.
