When it comes to salon and spa design, flooring isn’t just a backdrop—it’s a foundational element that must marry beauty, durability, and comfort. In the recent renovation of Spa Bleu in St. Charles, IL, the focus was clear: to deliver salon flooring that upholds a luxury brand image while performing flawlessly in a high-traffic environment.

 

A Vision for Modern Luxury

Salon owner Tammy Coakley knew precisely what she wanted: “We wanted to create a modern updated look that aligns with our luxury brand as well as high-quality, durable flooring that can withstand heavy spa and salon traffic.” The renovation needed to reflect the sophistication for which Spa Bleu is known, without sacrificing practical considerations such as comfort and maintenance.


 

To achieve this, Tammy partnered with Julie Kyle, Chief Operations Officer at TAJ Flooring, to explore flooring options that would check every box. The result was a bold and thoughtful choice: TAJ’s 2-3-5 Luxury Vinyl Tile in Soapstone Dark, size 18″ x 36″.

Why LVT Is the Ideal Flooring for Salons

TAJ’s LVT flooring was selected for its superior balance of performance and aesthetic value—an essential combination for salon flooring. Installed throughout the styling stations, wash areas, dye bar, spa rooms, and client lounge, this surface brings a seamless, modern flow to the entire space.
