Pachamama is where I go when I wish to offer myself a beauty treat: so welcoming and cosy, this is definitely my favourite hair & beauty salon in the whole of Geneva!
Just step in and you will enter a different dimension, far away from the hustle and bustle of the city: it's a real oasis of peace and tranquillity, with a green soul.
Located at the heart of the recently built Jonction eco quarter, Pachamama is unique in its kind, a beauty salon inspired by nature: Pachamama is, in fact, a Mother-heart goddess in the Inca tradition.
The interior design of the place, carefully created using local and renewable materials, reflects the values of the salon: respectful of nature, environmentally friendly, capable of offering an alternative to traditional salons.
All the products they use, from the hair colours, to the nail polish and waxing are organic, vegan, sustainable and extremely gentle on the body. I have personally noticed the difference on my nails when doing a semi-permanent manicure: my nails were healthier and stronger than ever before, thanks to the great products they use and the careful hands of Lourdes, their beautician and nail artist.
And what makes this salon even more special is its outstanding team: always smiling, friendly and extremely professional. Can't wait to go back!
