Are you Putting your Best Face Forward? (Reasons to Schedule a Facial Today!)



You've undoubtedly heard the expression "put your best face forward" but probably didn't take it literally. At Salon Deauville, we believe your best face is one that may be hiding out a little. That's right: underneath those dead skin cells, old make-up and sun damage is a more beautiful, youthful face, waiting to emerge.

Now, maybe you think of facials as an indulgence--something to be done on special occasions like your birthday or that all too infrequent "me day." At our Montreal salon, we remind you that a facial is more of a necessity than you might think. (Seriously...it"s your skin after all! It deserves love, care and more ongoing maintenance.)


Why Do I Need a Facial?


Oh yes, that age old question. Well, where do we begin...okay, from the top then:
You get to know your skin better. You can look in a magnified mirror until you're blue in the face. You"re still not a professional aesthetician who can examine your skin and give you a more detailed and through analysis of what routines and products work best for your particular skin type.

Really deep cleaning. We know; you think because you use the occasional toner, your skin is really clean...but its not facial-level clean.  A facial goes beyond the surface stuff and gets deep, really cleaning your pores and leaving you with a refreshed and renewed complexion.

Anti-aging effects. Sure your latest moisturizer may guarantee all sorts of anti-aging effects but a facial lives up to the promise by physically removing old skin cells and encouraging cell turnover as well as naturally boosting collagen.

Stress relief. Seriously, when was the last time someone caressed your face in a loving and therapeutic manner? (If you have, kudos for you, lucky girl) but most of us could stand more active, ongoing nurturing in our lives. Why? Because it"s good for the mind, body and soul!

And don't forget: stress is often held in our face and jaws. A facial removes that tension when you furrow your brow or make that frown (the one you make without knowing it). Simply put: a more relaxed face means a younger looking face.

Don't have time for a facial, you say? We could argue that you should make the time (because what matters more than a monthly session of deep relaxation and beautification?) but we also offer abbreviated facials for those on-the-go.

Our Facial Express is only 45 minutes long (the length of an average lunch hour) and our Flash Beauty “Just Before the party!” treatment is a perfect way to save time before a big event (since we take care of your face for you). 

Our Classic Facial is a perennial favorite and includes elements you"d expect from any spa-level skin treatment, including a consultation, cleansing, exfoliation, extractions, masks and of course, a luxurious face and neck massage.

It doesn't end there. Check out our menu of facial options.

Why your Mani Pedi Matters this Winter



There are all kinds of self-care. From massage to facials to a steaming hot bath, surrounded by candlelight. But nothing feels quite as immediate as the classic mani-pedi (or manicure and pedicure for those living in the Dark Ages).

And here’s the beautiful part: mani-pedis are more than just a beautification treat. There are actual benefits to them!


Benefits of a mani-pedi:



Increased blood flow. Our manicures and pedicures include a luxurious and pampering massage that improves blood circulation and mobility of the joints.

Improve the overall health of your nails. Our hands take a beating, especially during a Montreal winter. Regular manicures and pedicures reduce the chance of your nails developing fungi and other infections.

(Our mani-pedis also include a deep cleaning and thorough removal of dead skin cells. This encourages new cell growth, making your nails stronger and healthier.)

Chillax. Think of how comforting it is when someone touches your hand or massages your feet. The calming ripple effect is felt throughout your whole body. We focus on making your time at our spa an experience for the soul, not just your hands and feet.

Self-esteem boost. Simply put, when your hands and feet look good, you feel better about yourself. You gesture more confidently. And when you take off your shoes, you feel a sense of pride (not shame!).


The Different Kinds of Manicures and Pedicures:


Most people are unaware of the various types of manicures and pedicures we offer at our Montreal salon. They include:


Manicure, Exfoliation & Polish. This is our classic go-to manicure to give your hands a quick and beautiful makeover. It includes the use of our best nail polish and a hand massage (of course).

Shellac. A shellac polish is a combination of gel and nail polish, cured and hardened with UV light. It’s not as hard as gel and soaks off with acetone.

Gel. Gel is also known as “hard gel” and can applied on fake or natural nails. The main difference from shellac is that gel can be shaped and extended, similar to acrylic.

Acrylic. An acrylic manicure includes a combination of liquid and powder that creates a super hard and protective layer over your false tips or natural nail.

French manicure. The classic French manicure includes a solid white tip and either a clear or pink base. There are all sorts of fun, stylish variations to this type of look.

This is just a sampling of the nail services we offer. Let’s not forget about nail art (think holiday themes) and cool trending colors (like a super sleek and shiny black polish — very hot right now).

We’re also happy to provide a brief consultation and make suggestions specific to your hands, feet and lifestyle.

We carry only reputable, top-of-the-line nail products like Essie, Orly and OPI. See you at the salon!

Botox Hair Treatment In Montreal


Summer’s heat, an evening out on the dance floor, pretty snowflakes or morning mist… pleasant moments for the most part but also dreaded enemies for our hair style! Few things are more frustrating than spending time fixing our hair, only to end up a few hours later looking like a lion that just ran through the Savannah with heavy, matted and frizzy hair.

As much as we try to hide the nasty results with a ton of product or simply try to avoid these situations entirely, most can agree that this is a battle that is difficult to win.

Times have changed though, and we must stop avoiding to live life to its fullest; just a stop for a visit at Deauville Coiffure Spa for their new hair treatment Hair Botox from De Fabulous could be the answer you’ve been looking for. (https://www.salondeauville.com/hair-care-color/)

The Hair BTX treatment: Boost hydration, Transforms the hair follicle and scalp and extends the life of hair and extensions. It is a high-end treatment that fortifies and revives limp, lifeless, frizzy hair. It is the treatment that everyone has been looking for, that glamourous shiny hair we all dream of.

Hair BTX is not to be confused with other treatments like a hair relaxer or a keratin treatment. Hair relaxers break and re-bond the molecular structure of each follicle’s core. BTX operates completely differently. It is a reparative system that does not contain any formaldehyde or perm solution. It is geared to make the hair smooth, beautiful and manageable. If you enjoy straightening your hair, this treatment is definitely for you! You will achieve better looking results with greater ease and will also make your daily style last much longer.

The treatment is done in the salon and takes about 2 hours. The product penetrates deep into the core and deposits cysteine protein, natural oils and fruit acids. These elements combined strengthen the hair from the inside out. Each strand is smoothed, hydrated and sealed making the hair shiny, manageable and very soft. Hair BTX is the latest treatment and is a must! It is definitely the way to great hair!

Once the treatment is completed, we can ensure lasting results with the complementary sulfate-free shampoo and conditioner. (https://www.salondeauville.com/hair-care-color/) De Fabulous offers a line of three hair care products that complement the Botox Hair BTX salon treatment. Along with their hair repair shampoo and conditioner, they also have an ultra-performing hair repair treatment that reconstructs and strengthens extremely damaged and fragile hair.

De Fabulous offers great quality products and this stands out by the ingredients they have chosen for their product line: olive fruit extract, wheat-amino acid proteins, sweet almond extract, avocado oil and acai berry oil as well as Aloe Vera and Jojoba, amongst others. The list of the top of the line ingredients goes on. This is certainly a very different approach to traditional chemical treatments.

They say the best secrets are found in nature. De Fabulous certainly seems to have grasped this and have successfully managed to give us the latest in hair care technology with nature’s best. Their smoothing hair treatment that is made from botanical ingredients, will please both the hair product savvy, to those that prefer things without too many add-ins.

Hair Treatment Kerastase Fusio-Dose Salon Deauville Montreal Beauty Destination.

Finally, spring has arrived and just like nature we are looking to refresh our look. The time where terraces will be available is just around the corner as are the walks downtown on a sunny day. After the winter blues, we all impatiently look forward to the moments where we will be able to confidently strut our stuff down the street fancying that we are New York models down a catwalk. So the time has come for a deep makeover: exfoliating scrub, facials mask, a dab of nail polish, etc. We even venture and dig out that hair treatment we got as a gift last year, apply a huge blob on and place our product drenched hair under our shower cap. Ishhh! Despite having followed the instructions to a T, we come out of the shower looking like a lion in distress and certainly not with the elegant commercial-like hair we were hoping for. A good comb through should certainly remedy the situation… Shoot!  The comb just broke and we are now left staring at our unhappy face in the mirror. This is the moment where the only solution seems to be to take hold of that pair of scissors in the back of the drawer… 
Sounds familiar? During winter, we have all lived through frustrating hair moments. After the cold and dry weather, our once lovely strands most certainly need a little TLC and some major repair. No need to despair on our glistening hair dreams as a new era of hair treatment is here: Fusio-Dose by Kérastase a tailor-made treatment with ultra-effective ingredients for hair repair.

This is hair treatment at its finest: The latest technology available on the market and specifically targeted to our personal needs and concerns!
Fusio-Dose is an ultra-active, ultra-effective custom made treatment using modern science discoveries. The treatment is personalized for each person by combining one of the five booster treatment to one of the four available concentrates. This offers a range of combinations for a tailor-made solution. First, the concentrate is selected according to your primary concern: 
  1. Concentré Oléo-Fusion, ideal for very dry hair 
  2. Concentré Pixelist for coloured and sensitized hair
  3. Concentré Vita-Ciment for over-processed hair
  4. Concentré Densifique for fine and thinning hair
Then a second need is targeted with one of the quality boosters: 
  1. Booster Nutrition gives the hair 3 times more nourishment
  2. Booster Brilliance leaves hair 5 times more radiant
  3. Booster Densité gives in depth repair and the fiber is redensified for more texture and body
  4. Booster Discipline provides 72 hours of anti-frizz protection and smoothing results
  5. Booster Reconstruction for in depth-repair and hair that is 50% more resistant
This salon-only treatment is applied by a professional. Upon a consultation and a close examination of the hair follicle, a treatment is created directly on the spot in the lab. Whether it is for dry, fine, unruly, damaged or dull hair, it only takes 5 minutes for an instant hair transformation! This is definitely the perfect solution for those of us with supercharged schedules. After all, who would not want to rush out to go show off their new do! With the sun shining down on our beautiful and healthy locks we would certainly even be Kate Moss’ envy! Alright, it’s  nice to dream but one thing is for sure, with Fusio-Dose by Kérastase we will no longer be the one with hair envy. 
To make this a lasting experience, make sure to grab one of the home care regimens. These can be easily implemented in our daily routines and are available in the same selection as the Boosters. This is definitely the remedy to any future existential hair crisis in front of the mirror. Life is certainly too short to worry about these things, especially when we have the answer at our fingertips.
