Mike & Lisa Lowe - Owners A Better Cut Salon
Your manicure should last longer than two days. We know because we've heard that complaint for years from guests switching to our salon.
We offer gel manicures that actually hold up if you're hard on your hands. Regular manicures if you prefer them. Spa pedicures that keep your feet beach-ready year-round. Nail art for those who want it. We keep things clean and professional.
Lisa personally trained our nail techs on sanitation practices. You'll see us open new files and buffers for each guest. Our pedicure tubs get properly sanitized between appointments. These details matter to us because they matter to you.
Living in West Palm Beach means sandals most of the year. Pool time. Beach weekends. Your feet are on display. Our pedicures include proper callus removal and polish that lasts through Florida's heat.
We speak English clearly and listen to what you actually want. No language barriers. No confusion about nail shape or color. If you're not sure what works for your lifestyle, we'll walk you through options that make sense.
We're a full-service beauty salon. That means you can get your hair, nails, makeup, and waxing done in one trip. No driving all over Palm Beach County to different places.
This setup started because our guests kept asking for it. You're busy. You don't want to spend your whole Saturday at three different salons. We get that because we live here too.
You can book a haircut and color, then add a manicure while your color processes. Get your brows waxed during the same visit. We've been fine-tuning this system since 1985, so we know how to keep appointments moving without rushing you.
Our team works together in the same space. Your colorist can talk to your stylist about what works best. If you're getting ready for an event, we coordinate your whole look under one roof.
Most of our guests in the 561 area come to us because they want quality work without the runaround. We're not trying to be fancy. We're trying to make your life easier while helping you look your best.
Finding a hairdresser you trust takes time. We know because guests tell us they tried five other salons before landing here. Once you find someone who gets your hair, you stick with them.
Our hairdressers have been doing this for years. Some on our team have been with us for over a decade. They remember your last cut, what worked, what didn't. That relationship matters when you're sitting in the chair.
We train our team to really listen. If you say you don't have time to style your hair in the morning, we cut it that way. If you're growing out a bad cut from somewhere else, we have a plan. If your hair changed texture after having kids or hitting menopause, we adjust.
West Palm Beach hairdressers need to understand humidity. We live with it every day. Your hairdresser should know which products fight frizz and which cuts work with Florida's climate instead of against it.
You're not just getting a service. You're building a relationship with someone who sees you every six to eight weeks and wants you to look good in between visits.
Special events happen. Weddings. Anniversaries. Big photo shoots. Job interviews. You want to look your absolute best, and your regular makeup routine won't cut it.
Our makeup artists work with Florida's climate. Makeup that looks great in the mirror needs to last through outdoor ceremonies, beach photos, and humidity that hits 90 percent. We use products that stay put.
We've done makeup for brides getting married at The Breakers, mothers of the bride, prom girls, and women heading to important meetings. Each person needs something different. We listen first, then create a look that feels like you, just elevated.
If you're not sure what you want, we'll show you options. Natural and glowing for daytime events. More dramatic for evening. Age-appropriate always. We can also teach you techniques to recreate looks at home if you're interested.
Some guests book makeup services for their regular routine. Lash applications that let you skip mascara. Brow shaping and tinting. These small touches make a real difference in how much time you spend getting ready each morning.
Let's be real. Unwanted facial hair happens. Hormones change. Age changes things. That upper lip gets darker. Chin hairs appear out of nowhere. It's completely normal, but you don't have to live with it.
We offer facial waxing services in our salon. Eyebrows, upper lip, chin, and full face. We also do eyebrow tinting to define your brows without daily makeup. Our waxing specialists have seen it all and never make you feel uncomfortable about it.
Facial hair gets darker and coarser as we age. Waxing lasts longer than shaving and doesn't leave stubble showing through your lipstick. Eyebrow shaping frames your whole face when it's done right.
Our team uses quality wax that's gentler on skin. We'll tell you how to prep before your appointment and how to care for your skin after. If you're nervous about pain, we have tips that help.
Living in The Palm Beaches means your face is always on display. Most of our waxing clients book regular appointments every three to four weeks for brows and facial waxing. It becomes part of your routine, like getting your hair cut.
Thinning hair is frustrating. So is wanting long hair when yours grows slowly. Hair extensions solve both problems, but only if they're done right.
Our hair extension technicians have specialized training. We work with tape-ins, sew-ins, and fusion methods. The goal is extensions that blend so well nobody knows they're there unless you tell them.
We match your texture and color carefully. Extensions need to move like your natural hair, especially in Florida's wind and humidity. Cheap extensions look obvious. Professional installation makes all the difference.
Some guests use extensions for volume. Others want length for a special event like a wedding. We've also helped women going through medical hair loss feel like themselves again. Each situation needs a different approach.
Extensions require maintenance. We'll be honest about the time and cost involved. You'll need regular appointments to keep them looking good. If you're willing to commit to the upkeep, extensions can change how you feel about your hair.
At this time, we do not offer online booking because many of our services and service times are personalized by each service provider and their guest. By speaking with you directly, we can be more confident that you are scheduled for the correct services, time and team member. We also offer complimentary consultations within the salon or by phone with your service provider. Contact us now to schedule your appointment.
The prices that you see on our service guide is what you will more than likely be charged, however because some hair is very thick and/or long, we would need to allow more time for your service and so therefore there would be a higher cost for the time and work involved. This will also apply if you get a very detailed cut or you go from a long style to a much shorter style and also if we apply multiple colors in your coloring service. We do offer complimentary consultations anytime and this will allow us to give you more detailed price for your services.
We are closed Sunday and Monday. We are open Tuesday through Thursday from 9AM to 8PM, Friday from 9AM to 5PM and Saturday from 9AM to 4PM. Call or stop by anytime between these hours.
