A Thanksgiving Message From CEO Janet Denyer

As the Thanksgiving holiday approaches, it certainly brings to mind all that we have to be thankful for. At Gene Juarez, we are thankful to help you, our Guests, live beautiful lives, not only in the way the way you look, but also in the way you feel after having a Gene Juarez beauty or wellness service. To be your “day maker” is our “dream come true!” On behalf of the entire company, I would like to express our gratitude to all of you for allowing us the opportunity to realize our dream. Thank you!

This holiday season we are ready to meet your needs whether it’s helping you look your very best during a time of gatherings and cheer, or whether it’s to bring relief from this very taxing time of year. We look forward to providing you with a beautiful hair color and style, or a relaxing massage, facial, manicure, or pedicure, all customized to your special needs. You are also invited to visit your neighborhood Gene Juarez to browse the fabulous array of holiday gift merchandise, and to take advantage of our special holiday promotions for our beauty care products, including the very popular "buy two hair care products and receive one product free"! This is just another way we wish to say thank you for supporting us during our 38 years in the Puget Sound.

We also hope that you will honor us by choosing to share the Gene Juarez experience with your friends and family by purchasing a Gene Juarez gift card. This year, we have worked very hard to provide you with a beautiful gift card ensemble that is classic, elegant and thoughtful in presentation. With a gift card purchase of $150 or more, you will receive an attractive Gene Juarez signature travel tote, which allows “beauty on the go” to be neat and organized. It can accompany your gift card, or you can keep this item for yourself. The choice is yours! We promise that we will make your special someone feel very special indeed when he or she visits Gene Juarez.

Again, thank you for allowing us the opportunity to serve you. We appreciate it very much and always strive to bring you the best selection of beauty care services and products in the world!

With appreciation,

Janet Denyer
CEO

Escape from Holiday Stresses

The holidays are just around the corner and with them – seasonal stress.
It seems like every city block is covered in lights and decorations in anticipation of Thanksgiving, and before we know it, we will be celebrating the New Year! We’ve promised ourselves that this holiday season will be different. We will start our shopping early and bake in advance, but between the family gatherings, the endless trips to the mall, and holiday office parties, we’ve forgotten to take care of ourselves. This year, break the cycle!

Massage therapy is a simple antidote to the holiday madness, and you will be amazed at how quickly it calms your nerves, provides relief from muscle pain, and encourages deep relaxation. In addition, massage increases circulation, which flushes out toxins and delivers more nutrients, oxygen, while increasing your body’s immunity.

This holiday, make time to melt your stress away with a much-deserved massage. My personal favorite is the Signature Serenity Massage which combines fluid strokes and warmed herbal oils in an inspired journey that will leave you feeling renewed and revitalized.

Radiant Skin for the Holidays

The trees are shedding their deciduous leaves and our Northwest mountains will soon be covered in snow. Excitement is in the air as the Winter Olympics are about to start and anticipation builds as the holiday season quickly approaches. Winter brings changes in your skin as well, and it feels slightly drier with a lack of suppleness and elasticity due to indoor heating systems and previous hours spent under the summer sun.

The perfect remedy?... a glycolic based resurfacing facial that will get rid of layers of dead skin cells, regenerate your skin, and give you that amazing glow everyone is chasing. The Gene Juarez Anti-Aging facial is the perfect antidote to Winter’s war on our skin. Your skin will be stunning, healthy, and radiant for the holiday season and the winter months. Also, if you plan on spending time out of doors, don’t forget to nourish your skin. I highly recommend ARCONA’s Black Tundra, which hydrates and protects your skin from the harsh and dry environment.

Beautiful Fall Color

Fall brings an abundance of beautifully deep, rich colors to our Northwest landscape; colors which just beg to be mirrored in our hair. For highlighted locks, add dimension and soft contrast with a few deep, warm low lights away from the face and intermittently throughout your hair. Keep the colors close to the same shade as your natural hair color to soften the overall contrast of the effect. If you are working with all over color, you can add golden tones to achieve a warm, rich style which will add depth and dimension making your hair appear thicker, fuller, shinier and healthier.
