Waterless, eco-friendly nail and facial spa is opening in Stonewall Station
Entrepreneur, aesthetician and spa educator Tracy Martin is bringing a new spa concept to Stonewall Station this fall. Lemon Love, Martin’s second endeavour in the Charlotte area, will be a waterless and eco-friendly spa, focusing on luxury and customer-centric nail and facial services.
Local beauty and wellness aficionados may already know Martin as the owner of spa boutique Tru Esthetics in Dilworth. When Martin opened this spa in 2014, she gained a following for her eyebrow-shaping expertise and emphasis on wellness and education.
Martin plans to bring similar personalized spa experiences to customers of Lemon Love.
“I want to concentrate on that relationship with the customer, the service and the experience, just like I do with skincare. I want to educate them on their nails and the health and wellness of them versus cleaning them up, painting them and sending them on their way,” Martin said.
The services at Lemon Love will use organic and natural products to provide a completely nontoxic experience and are specially designed to be soak-free.
“Instead of submerging your feet into a water pool and soaking your fingertips in a water bowl, we will focus on the sensory of custom-blended antibacterial sprays, warm towels, specially curated scrubs and oils, all with a focus on natural and pure ingredients. This approach cuts back on water waste and wasteful plastic basin liners,” Martin said.
According to Martin, the water-free element of the services can help lengthen the duration of the manicure or pedicure by reducing the chance for chips, tears, breaks that can happen when nails are soaked. Additionally, people with conditions like diabetes should not have their digits submerged in water, and this type of nail service is inclusive to a broader demographic.
In addition to nail services, expect a variety of facial offerings and clean beauty products available exclusively at Lemon Love. The salon is expected to open later this fall.
