Know our story…
In The Beginning…
Cosmos was established in 1981 and continues to attract new and repeat customers, as well as prominent personalities. The large and beautiful salon and spa, unique customer care, technical expertise, creative flair and constant hunger to be in current trends continues to set Cosmos apart from the pack.
Our Expansion…
In 2015, Cosmos added the medical spa services of LaVida MedSpa and was rebranded as Cosmos Salon and Med Spa. Cosmos still offers the cutting edge, trendy hairstyles, nails, and facials, but added exciting new services such as Botox, Painless Laser Hair Removal and Facial Fillers and many other state of the art medical procedures designed to help everyone feel and look their best. One thing our guests will quickly notice is our experience and continuing education makes a difference.
Then There Were Two…
In 2022, the medical spa side of Cosmos outgrew the rear spa and moved next door and became LaVida MedSpa of Mesa while Cosmos was rebranded as Cosmos Salon and Spa. Cosmos Salon continues to offer our custom hair services and our spa is now offering custom spray tanning, lash extensions, brow laminating and lash lifting. Cosmos lobby was expanded to allow access to both locations allowing for almost 6,000 square feet of beauty treatments under one roof!

Ally
Esthetician & Lash Artist
I am an esthetician here at Cosmos Salon and Spa! I've been a licensed esthetician for 3 years. Here at Cosmos I am currently offering lash extensions, lash lifts, brow laminations, and custom air brush spray tans! I've only been here since June of 2022, and I am loving being a part of this amazing team!
When I'm not busy giving you gorgeous lashes or the perfect airbrush tan, you can find me spending time with my family. I love being outdoors and camping with my husband and our pup, Goose!
Paizley
Esthetician & Lash Artist
Hi, I’m Paizley, and I’m passionate about helping my clients feel confident and beautiful through expert skincare and customized beauty treatments. I have been a licensed esthetician for three years, but my love for the beauty industry goes back as long as I can remember. Over the years, I’ve explored many areas of beauty, making me a true jack of all trades, but my specialty lies in lash artistry and personalized skincare solutions.
When I’m not in the treatment room, you can find me powerlifting! Strength training is one of my biggest passions, and at my very first competition, I took home gold. Now, I’m training to break Arizona state records this summer, fueled by determination and my faith in God.
I can’t wait to welcome you into my treatment room and help you achieve your beauty goals—whether it’s flawless skin, the perfect lash set, or a confidence boost that lasts beyond your appointment. Let’s create your dream look together!

When I am not at Cosmos, you can find me with my hubby, our kiddos and furbabies on some sort of adventure in the valley or on a quick weekend getaway.
Alyssa
Assistant Manager
I joined Cosmos in April of 2022! I chose the cosmetology industry because I’m interested in the transformations that I see from a person walking into the salon with hair they are not confident about, then walking out a new, more confident person with their new hair. Watching someone change right before your eyes is amazing.
I love working at Cosmos because of all the amazing, different providers we have working with us, they all make this place feel like home. ❤ On my days off you can find me up North in Sedona looking for new crystals and enjoying nature!
