Keeping up on your hair care, nails or tan can be hard when you are a broke college student, but when it comes to health and wellness, beauty care is essential. From getting your hair trimmed to keeping your nails long and strong, these things are important for the health of your body, not to mention they make you feel good about yourself. Luckily, some of the local salons here in Eugene understand the needs for affordable beauty and offer reasonable prices or even student discounts. Here are the best salons near campus and what services they offer.

The salon is a small, chic place that’s close to campus and is certain to make you feel comfortable and stylish.
