Highlights vs Balayage: What's the difference? (A Hilton, NY Colorist Explains) Highlights, balayage, foilayage, blonding, air touch.

Your safest bet? Schedule a consultation so you can go over your starting point, goals, budget, and appointment length. We are located in Hilton, NY ri

You've decided to get a Brazilian Wax...smart move! It's lower maintenance, gives better results, and ultimately makes your life so so much easier. Here's the thing though- you don't get the maximum benefit from that first wax. You really start to see the best results after waxes number 3-6. It's a routine that works best as a commitment versus a single service. If you're serious about smooth skin that actually lasts, a package isn't just about the discount. It's the differen

At JGD Salon in Hilton, NY, our esthetician Lydia has turned nervous first-timers into devoted regulars more often than we can even count. In this post, w

We're just weeks away from one of the busiest times of year: The Holidays. It's a magical time of year, especially for kiddos. And let's be honest, it's usually the moms creating most of that magic. We shop, wrap, bake, coordinate, and decorate...all while still take care of practices, games, homework, laundry, bath time, bed time, cooking and- oh yeah- working our regular jobs. Just typing all of that makes me need a spa day (and a nap). Sometimes just taking a few hours awa
