Point Loma's 74 beauty and skin businesses make it the largest personal care subcategory on the peninsula. European Wax Center and The Lash Lounge anchor the franchise segment on Rosecrans, while independents like Beachside Wax and Glow and Beauty Energy Exchange Aesthetics and Wellness provide med-spa services including facials, microneedling, and injectables. Rosie's Beauty & Brows specializes in threading and brow shaping, and Ulta Beauty stocks the retail cosmetics corridor on Sports Arena Boulevard. The med-spa segment within the beauty category has grown as practitioners add microneedling, dermaplaning, and injectable services alongside traditional facials—Beauty Energy Exchange Aesthetics and Wellness runs this hybrid clinical-esthetic model from a private suite. The 31 hair salons span chain and independent operations. A Robert Cromeans Salon at Liberty Station runs a high-end styling operation with a national reputation, and Pigtails & Crewcuts handles children's haircuts with play-area seating. Elle Beauty Studio provides color and styling from a boutique space, while Sport Clips and Supercuts serve the walk-in market on Rosecrans. South of Nimitz Boulevard in the Sunset Cliffs corridor, Catalina Nail Bar on Catalina Boulevard and The Ritzy Mist on Canon Street serve the residential 92106 with neighborhood-scale beauty and skincare away from the Midway District chains.
Point Loma's 17 barber shops serve the peninsula's military and civilian populations. Uni'k Barber Shop runs a full-service traditional barbering operation, RUSTY BLADE BARBER handles classic fades and straight-razor shaves, and Tam VN Barber Shop draws steady traffic on Rosecrans. Loma Square Barber Shop and Barber Box round out the walk-in options along the Midway corridor. The 20 nail salons concentrate along Rosecrans and Midway. O'leisure Nails and Spa leads with over 1,300 reviews, and Chic Nails Lounge and KAI Nails and Spa offer gel, dip, and full pedicure services. Lotus provides nail care alongside waxing. Makeup artistry lists 4 studios, with permanent cosmetics emerging as the fastest-growing niche—Lip Blush and Microblading San Diego handles lip blushing, powder brows, and microblading, while Queen Beauty Medink specializes in semi-permanent eyeliner and brow tattoo work. The Sola Salon Studios model on Kenyon Street houses multiple independent stylists and estheticians under one roof, each running their own client book—a format that attracts specialists who want suite-level privacy without storefront overhead. The peninsula's military population drives steady new-client demand as service members and spouses rotate through Point Loma on two- to four-year assignments, creating a built-in acquisition cycle that civilian neighborhoods don't generate. Tanning runs 2 studios: SUGARED + BRONZED (Liberty Station) for airbrush and sugaring services, and Sunless Revolution Salon for spray tan. 2 tailors—Alice's Alterations and Tiffany's Alterations—handle garment alterations and uniform adjustments for the peninsula's military residents.
