Essense Salon & Sanctuary

Essense Salon & Sanctuary is a hair salon and treatment space at 405 Wharncliffe Rd. South in London, Ontario, established in 1997 and expanded in 2019 to add beauty services. The head spa menu includes an intense moisture treatment built around a rosemary hot oil scalp massage with avocado, grapeseed, safflower and sesame oils, and a deep cleanse option that begins with microscopic scalp analysis and uses modalities such as oxygen infusion, a glycolic acid scalp wash and an ultrasonic scrubber. Skincare services use the Verso line and cover a signature facial, a mini glow facial, microdermabrasion, oxygen facial and glycolic acid peel, alongside a dead sea salt and avocado oil body polish and relaxation massage. Stylist pricing reflects education and experience. The salon posts hours Tuesday through Saturday, with Tuesday and Thursday open until 8 pm, and takes reservations online through Phorest.
