With 11 salons / day spas scattered across the city, it only makes sense that the local company which employs 450-ish hair, makeup, nail, skin care and body treatment experts would open a school to train others in the business.
The beauty of Gould's Academy (get it??) is that all those trainees need practice, so you can arrange for anything from a haircut to an up-do to a blow-out to nail services...the list seems endless. Pricing starts at $5 for a beard trim and haircuts start at $12, while nail services start at $12 and facials at $40.
Across the hall from the main Academy is the Express Massage, our favorite spot of all.

- Spas: "Every Wednesday at the Academy is Senior day, so those 65 and above receive an extra 10% off their bill. But be sure to tip on the full service price."
- Best for Spas Because: $40 one-hour massages by licensed massage therapists. Yes, please!
