Tanning Salons
Tanning salons provide beds that emit UV rays affecting skin pigment. Some salons offer UV-free options that darken the skin without exposure to light. Tanning salons also provide an array of lotions, moisturizers and other skincare products. Davis doesn't support many tanning salons, possibly for
melanoma concerns, but those determined few have options.
A new law was passed that bans UV tanning by machines for anyone under age 18. Spray tans are still legal.
Nail Salons
Nail salons provide manicures for the hands, pedicures for the feet, and often do some waxing as well. Typically you get your best value with a combination manicure/pedicure service. Please check our listing of full service salons and spas for more places to get your nails done.

I've had trouble finding barber shops that actually offer shaves. Does anyone know of one? - ArlenAbraham
I am pretty sure Razor's Edge Barber Shop offers straight razor shaves, although I have never gotten one there myself. -GeorgeLewis
2005-12-16 08:54:51 Davis Barber Shop does a straight razor for the neck, so I am sure they can do regular shaves too. —JoeMinewiser
2006-05-19 10:54:26 Has anyone had success finding a barber that trims beards well? I went into the Aggie Barber once for this and they did a horrible job. —BigDave
2007-11-04 16:23:29 The "just cut it yourself" note totally goes for California Hair Design; what a mess. —CharlotteK
2008-05-12 01:50:08 cornrows? anyone? —anniebanhie
2008-06-02 12:16:32 you know.. we need recommendations for people cutting men asian hair in the price range of $30 to $40. —atwong
2008-07-12 15:42:23 kosmo kreation is a asain hair cut for men and woman you know atwong —Han
2008-11-10 Is there a salon that does a good haircut for $30 to $40? I've had haircuts in Davis on both ends of the spectrum ($15 and $60), but I'd really like something in the middle. I'm just a working mom with medium to long hair. Any ideas or suggestions? —NoelBruening
2009-09-14 16:09:36 Just to Inform anyone out there looking, Vita Dolce Barbershop (now closed) Offered Full Service Straight Razor Shaves for all the gentlemen out there Looking for a taste of Old School Tradition. —HollywoodtheBarber
2010-04-27 16:43:17 I've been to several shops here in Davis to get my haircut (guy with shoulder length hair) and each time, the stylist/barber cuts it way too short. Are there no good stylists/barbers in Davis? —Darkfallin
2011-10-01 21:20:08 Do any barbers in Davis do Taper fade hair cuts and line you up ? —Alex5ten
2012-01-14 14:14:16 A female friend of mine has asked me to post the following: "I am looking for a place where I can just get a nice haircut each time without much fuss. I don't want to color my hair. I don't want to perm my hair. I'm also not going to be blow-drying or styling my hair. I have very fine hair and I want to limit the stress that I put on it. I realize that this limits the styles that are available to me, but I still want to get a good cut. Sometimes what happens to me is that I get a few good cuts, but then the stylist seems to get bored because I am not buying expensive products or expensive treatments or doing anything fancy. I end up with my hair too short or not cut carefully. I just want to get a good haircut each time, and yes, I always tip nicely. Any recommendations for me?" —CovertProfessor
-
I think that Olive Drive Barber Shop is a great place for a no-frills professional cut. $16 for a cut that you won't need to wait 2 weeks for it to look right. She won't shampoo or perm, but you will look good.
-
Thanks — somehow I missed this reply. I'll pass along the suggestion. —CovertProfessor
2012-06-04 08:50:23 Does anyone know if any of these places will do a full Henna dye on long hair? —SharonRuth
