Exciting Changes at Solace Salon and Spa this Month!

The Perfect Addition – Adair Style Studio 

We’ve been working on this exciting project behind the scenes for months now and we’re so excited to finally give you the news! Sydney from Adair Clothing Boutique and Raegan, Solace Salon & Spa owner, are partnering up to open a second Adair location inside Solace!

We all know the perfect outfit can really make or break your day, and that’s why we are so excited for the opportunity to expand Solace’s pampering services beyond hair, skincare, nails and massage! Raegan and Sydney worked together extensively to ensure that every item within this Adair location will be perfectly styled, sized and fitted for today’s business woman. You’ll find all of the usual Adair classics you love, plus a few more sophisticated pieces carefully considered by Raegan herself. We can’t wait to have the latest trends and classics hanging right inside our spa! Sydney’s clothes are pure style and quality – you’re sure to find something you’ll absolutely love at each visit!

A New and Improved Nail Experience

Along with the addition of Adair downstairs, our nail services are getting an upgrade! While we’ve always catered to our guests with our Southern Hospitality and charm, we are determined to make your nail experience even more enjoyable and tailored to your specific wishes! The nail room is moving to a more private area upstairs in order to elevate your nail experience at Solace. We want for guests to feel indulged in and able to unwind in a tranquil, serene space while being pampered with longer and more relaxing manicures and pedicures in our new space.

Look for more details about Adair’s Grand Opening and our new nail room in the upcoming weeks!

Fall 2015 Hair Trends



At Solace we love to try out all the trendy new looks! Take a look below for a few fun ideas to try out this fall!


Low Profile
Most pony tails are placed high on the head to either get hair out of the way or to pose like a 90s cheerleader. This fall, it seems that low ponies are making their debut, so say goodbye to the pony tail crimps as low, loose ponies are welcomed in this season.

Pick a Side
Despite the middle part coming back into style the past few years, side parts are the new trend this fall. The deeper, more dramatic the side part the better. Seeing more hair is on one side than the other, you’re guaranteed instant volume. To add definition, let the extra hair fall forward across the face.

Don’t worry about perfecting this side updo. It’s meant to be a little messy. Working from the left, sweep the hair across the back of your head up off your nape and over to the right so that you have a very rough diagonal part. Wrap the hair with an elastic as though you’re going to make a ponytail, but don’t pull the ends all the way through. Voila! Your messy twist is complete.

Sounds like Bohemian Waves will be in every season. Who doesn’t love the beach wave? Using some sort of texturing product, you can scrunch your hair (for curly hair) or curl it with a big barrel iron (for straight hair). Either way, this hairstyle will make your miss summer this fall!

No, mullets are not back in! The half up, half down styles are a big hit this fall though. Whether it’s a half braid, half ponytail, or any variation of the two, you will look great.


Leggings, PSLs and skyscraper buns will be in your near future! This easy hairstyle involves minimal effort with sleek results. For someone who wants more structure than just a messy bun, this “fun bun” will provide just enough sophistication.

Be bold with bangs! The short hairstyle is cut to sit at the jaw-line in a solid line with the bangs jagged cut to fall naturally on the face to soften the whole boyish hairstyle. The trendy layered hairstyle is excellent for people with naturally straight hair and is suitable for people from nearly all ages.
Hair Painting / Balayage
Foils are so last season! The new rage this fall is balayage, the perfect way to obtain sun-kissed highlights. Balayage refers to the process of sweeping color onto hair using a paddle, which gives the colorist more freedom to place color where she chooses, unlike foils which can be much more precise. 







Give us a call today at 704.795.7627 to set up an appointment for some sleek bangs, hair painting or for a fresh, new cut or color to make these fall trends really pop!

Big Announcement: Introducing, The Marilyn

Dear Solace Seekers,

After a decade of business, I am excited to take Solace Salon and Spa’s relaxation and beautification capabilities to the next level with our newest and most innovative service, The Non-Surgical Facelift. 


Before & After the Non-Surgical Facelift
The Non-Surgical Facelift is guaranteed to raise your confidence; after just one treatment a quick glance in the mirror will transport you back in time to your younger self. The state-of-the-art miracle machine we use to complete the service, commonly referred to as “The Marilyn,” is truly capable of revolutionizing skincare. Through the use of micro currents, The Marilyn increases collagen and elastin, ATP production and skin firmness, all while reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. 


This non-invasive procedure is unique to Solace, as we are the only spa to perform this service in both Cabarrus and Mecklenburg County, out of less than a handful in the entire state of North Carolina. That’s why we’re offering the unique opportunity to check out the Marilyn Machine’s magic at an exclusive VIP only event coming to Solace August 3, 2015. 

Stay tuned for more information on The Marilyn Machine Non-Surgical Facelift and the VIP only event invitation coming August 3rd! Sagging skin, rosacea, acne, eye and mouth wrinkles – good bye! We can’t wait to see how it changes your life!

Not Your Average Brow Waxing; It’s a Brow Experience

Anastasia Beverly Hills and Kelley Baker Brows are known as the masters of the perfect eyebrows on the West Coast. We have our very own masters of the perfect eyebrows at Solace Salon and Spa on this coast.

They say the eyes are the windows to the soul, well the eyebrows are the frame of the face. The technicians here at Solace Salon and Spa understand that eyebrows can transform a person’s face once they are groomed to perfection. With the right shaped eyebrows, it can take years off your face because they highlight all the right areas and angles to make you look years younger. 

Most places that offer eyebrow waxing that take you into a cold room or just out in the open for all to see. At Solace, we want you to be a relaxed and as comfortable as possible. We play soothing music, lay you down on a warm, comfortable massage table, and apply a cold compress to your eyebrow region before completing the waxing. We then apply calming lotions to the freshly waxed area to conclude the service. If you have any problematic areas with your brows, Solace can help with that too!

Our eyebrow waxing experience is one of a kind, second to none. At Solace, we are professionals doing the art in our field and we are technicians that you can trust with making you look like the best version of yourself.


P.S.- Remember that your eyebrows are sisters, not twins!

5 Spring Hair Color Trends You'll Love

All Natural Spring: Color trends neutral and classic for warm weather hairstyles. 

Searching for the perfect update to your hair for spring? This seasons hair colors are trending towards natural and subtle, away from loud and proud.

1. Balayage
Like its best friend “ombre”, the “balayage” technique creates a unique cascade of colors from root to tip of your hair. What separates these color techniques is application and color selection. While the “ombre” is applied using a brush, the “balayage” is applied by hand to even out the transition of colors in the hair. In addition the “balayage” calls for subdued and neutral colors to be added to the hair to create natural highlights.

2. Babylights
With babylights it is all about being subtle, like the soft highlights that appear in your hair after spending a warm, sunny afternoon in the sun. Instead of targeting big sections of hair to be highlighted, individual strands are selected and highlighted to create the natural look. This color trend looks great with any hair color, so brunettes do not be afraid of the blonde highlights!

3. Soft Reds
As the natural, sunkissed tones are sweeping the color trends they are toning down vibrant reds. Soft red tones such as auburn and red with gold highlights are bringing back the classic strawberry blonde. This color trend allows those searching for a pop of color a subdued alternative to the blonde and brunette.

4. Solid Brunette
Coming back into style is the monotonal brunette. As natural as can be, this look is a nice change from ombre and can help you stand out in the crowd. This color trend pairs well with the long bob for a great summer look.

And if these trends are too subtle for you try...

5. Rainbow Colored Roots!
While natural colors are trending this year, bold hair colors are not taboo. Give your roots some colorful attention with this trend. Best for medium length hairstyles with dark hair, bright pink, green yellow or blue can be a fun way to cover unwanted roots and make your own fashion statement this season.

Why you should get facials on a regular basis

Does cool weather have your face crying out for help? Your skin can be your best facial feature, but everyday strain, pollution, wind and sun can create some serious havoc for your face - even for those who follow the most diligent beauty regiment! 

Facials provide obvious physical benefits, like youthful, refreshed skin, while also supplying an added boost of self-esteem. Think of regular facials like a teeth cleaning at the dentist; your daily brushing is sufficient, but you really need that occasional deep cleaning for optimal results. 

No matter your skincare need, Solace Salon and Spa offers an array of facials tailored to each guest’s specific needs. Call us at 704.795.7627 to make your appointment now! Your face will thank you!
