DULUTH — Over the past decade, Fitger’s Salon and Spa has partnered with others in the industry to help create a wedding destination on East Superior Street. “The wedding community here has really boomed, especially down here,” said Fitger’s Salon and Spa manager Chelsie Evers. Located on the first floor within the historic Fitger’s Complex at 600 E.
Superior St., the beauty parlor serves as a “one-stop shop” for bridal parties — taking care of them head-to-toe in preparation for the big day. With 11 hair stylists, two nail technicians, a massage therapist and four estheticians on staff, the full-service salon offers services including hair coloring, haircuts, facials, dermaplaning, lash extensions, lash tints, eyebrow lamination, gel manicures, pedicures and massage services.
Most recently, airbrush spray tanning was added to the mix on June 1. ADVERTISEMENT Having previously worked at a dermatology clinic, Evers describes herself as “anti-sun.” However, she admitted to enjoying the look of a good glow, and so do many brides who come through the shop.
“The colors that we use are really nice. Nothing gets too green or too orange, and it’s super customizable,” Evers said. “We don’t love UV rays, so this is a great way to catch a tan without the skin damage.
” Clients step inside the ventilated My Tan Professional machine, where the spray tan is applied by a trained esthetician using an airbrush hose. Once dried, it is nontransferable and lasts .
