Golden Aura Hair & Spa to debut specialty services, exclusive Japanese hair treatment; New salon blends relaxation, beauty, and innovation in a one-of-a-kind experience
Golden Aura Hair & Spa, the latest venture from local beauty expert and entrepreneur Taliyah Huffman, is opening on Route 173 in late February 2025.
As the first Japanese Head Spa in Machesney Park and the surrounding areas, this salon will bring an unparalleled fusion of relaxation and beauty to the community.
“As a beauty professional, I know that truly healthy hair starts with a clean, nourished scalp,” said Taliyah Huffman.
“The Japanese Head Spa is a service designed to refresh and restore, combining relaxation with the kind of care that enhances hair health from the root. I’ve created Golden Aura Hair & Spa to be a space where our clients can unwind and leave feeling their absolute best.”
What guests can expect
If you’ve ever been mesmerized by those TikTok or Instagram videos showing gentle streams of water massaging and cleansing hair, Golden Aura’s Japanese Head Spa turns that dream into reality.
This luxurious service deeply cleanses your scalp and hair while offering total relaxation. Guests can expect a soothing blend of water therapy, scalp massage, and high-end treatments that go beyond just washing your hair – it’s like a facial, but for your scalp.
Highlights include:
• Exclusive Japanese Head Spa: Perfect for detoxifying your scalp, promoting healthy hair growth, and giving your hair a fresh, lightweight feel. This treatment removes buildup and excess oils, leaving your scalp truly clean and refreshed.
• Premium Hair Services: Extensions, expert coloring, and precision styling led by Kallie Nelson, the salon’s talented head stylist.
• Skin Care and Nail Treatments: Advanced skin therapies and flawless nail designs, tailored to each guest’s needs.
• Complimentary drinks and upscale ambiance: Elegant chandeliers, a white-and-gold aesthetic, and a welcoming vibe set the stage for true luxury.
Golden Aura Hair & Spa will initially be appointment-based, with potential for walk-in consultations depending on demand.
Celebrating the grand opening
Golden Aura Hair & Spa will host an exciting grand opening celebration in mid-2025, inviting the community to experience its unique blend of luxury and innovation.
Guests can enjoy complimentary consultations, limited-time promotions on signature treatments like the Japanese Head Spa, and a chance to meet Taliyah Huffman and her team, including Kallie Nelson.
