Some Words About Us
The story of Mira Salon and Spa began in 2001, when Amanda enrolled in Pivot Point Academy, located in Bloomingdale. While attending the academy, Amanda acquired the skills necessary to meet her clients’ aesthetic needs while nurturing their physical and emotional well-being. In 2003, she opened Amanda’s Spa and Beauty Services, located on Peace Road. At the same time, she enrolled in the Northern Prairie College of Therapeutic Massage in Sycamore; therefore, rounding out her skills and expertise in serving her clients’ needs, head-to-toe.
In 2007, Amanda’s Spa moved to South 4th St in DeKalb and joined hands with Aveda, a company on the cutting edge of the natural science of beauty and well-being. This cooperation turned the salon into an Aveda Concept Spa and allows the spa to provide its clientele with the highest-quality products that combine environmental consciousness, social responsibility and pure botanical essence; formulas that are known as Purescriptions™.
In July 2017, Amanda’s Spa and Beauty moved to Hillcrest Drive and changed it operating name to Mira Salon and Spa.
The name change was integral to the continued development of the spa as the name encompasses all the things that we strive to empower in our guests.
This location change also brought about the addition of Davines and enhanced relationship with Eminence Organic Skin Care. Both are B Company certified which is a measure of a company’s social and environmental performance against the standards in the online B Impact Assessment, a very high level of social responsibility for the planet and society.
