Susan Hammond Skin Care

A little reintroduction ✨

I fell in love with facials a few years before I ever gave one, as a client, showing up monthly for that ritual of taking care of myself...that feeling never left me, and 28 years later of doing facials for others, it still drives what I do.

I started out in San Francisco working at a salon, then a spa, then co-founding a skin care studio, Splendid Skincare with a couple of esties I met along the way. Some of my favorite years!

I moved back to my hometown of Long Beach 22 years ago, and it's been almost 14 years that I started my business in Long Beach, which has been built through your referrals, and word of mouth. So thank you! It means everything to me.

What I’ve learned over the years: skincare isn’t one-size-fits-all. It's gut, diet, hormones, lifestyle, genetics, the products we use (what's working, and what's not)...and it looks a little different for everyone. I love the process of figuring that out together.

To my clients: you’re the whole point. Thank you for trusting me, and for being part of this journey. My hope is always just to give you a moment of real care and a little sense of well-being.

Here for it...and so glad you are too. 🤍

Audy will have more availability after she graduates from USC in May! 🤗

For me, 2026 is about alignment...

If there’s one thing skincare has taught me, it’s that well‑being comes from everything working together. Skin, body, and lifestyle aren’t separate—they support one another. When we stop chasing quick fixes and start listening, real balance can happen. And when things are aligned, we radiate.

Skincare has always been more than products to me. It’s about intention, awareness, and creating space to slow down and tune in. Taking care of ourselves changes how we feel, how we see ourselves, and how we show up and inspire each other.

This year, I’m choosing thoughtful care, personalized experiences, and treatments that will hopefully leave you feeling better than when you arrived.

Here’s to a year of balance, intention, and alignment—starting from within. ✨

Life and skincare are about finding balance —
blending mindful rituals with science to restore, renew, and reveal your natural glow. ✨✨

I’ll be out of the studio from 11/24 to 11/28. Booking and gift certificates are available online. Feel free to text me if you need to get in touch.

Rumor has it… 🤫
Audy will be in the treatment room at the start of the New Year! ✨

With the move of the business, we got a little behind schedule — and Audy’s been busy USC-ing — but we’re finally getting ready to roll! Soon we’ll have a set day on the schedule for Audy facials and you’ll definitely want to snag a spot💆‍♀️💖

I’m loving this little studio. Thank you all for being so supportive & making each space feel special! 🧡

22 looks good on you ❤️

I moved again! Not exactly the studio refresh I had planned for this year, but it’s all good. I’m now at Phenix Suites in The Market Place, with two salon suites right across from each other—one for retail and one for treatments. It takes me back to my spa days, and I’m really loving having a treatment room. My last two spots were great open spaces, but this setup feels even better than I expected.

This time, parking and convenience were my top priorities. I also love having other businesses around. It’s not the usual retail space I’m used to, but I’m super happy here and really enjoy working alongside such a great community. This space is a beauty collective full of talent.

I’ll be texting directions to each of you before your appointments. Huge thanks to everyone who’s supported me and helped me feel confident through this move. Your kindness has made these first few days way easier. I can’t wait to welcome you all to the new space!

Forever grateful for all the love and support you’ve shown me. You’ve proven I can take this business anywhere. Thank you!

It just hits me sometimes how grateful I am for all of you. I see over 100 clients a month, and I truly appreciate your support—not just for my business, but for literally helping me raise my daughter. I love what I do, and my hope is that everyone who walks through my door loves their experience as much as I loved my very first facial.

Creating an environment you love has always been my goal. That’s why I’ve always invested so much into having a welcoming retail space. Your feedback and your messages about how you feel here genuinely make my day.

I know I say this a lot on Instagram, but it’s worth repeating: my goal is to give you a space where you can reset, find balance, address your skin concerns, or just have a moment of peace when life feels overwhelming. Thank you for being a part of this community and for letting me be a part of your journey.

With gratitude,
Susan
