Kayla
What Kayla loves most about VALO is the team. Many of them have been here since the very beginning, making it feel like a true family. When it comes to products, her underrated favorite is the Gold Oil for its calming, hydrating, and even hair-nourishing benefits. For services, she swears by the customizable Sisu Radiance Facial featuring Circadia products for glowing results. To recharge, she enjoys getting spa treatments of her own, time with her husband, family, and friends, and tending to her garden in the warmer months. Something you might not expect from her is that she is a licensed esthetician and she can also do the worm… backwards!

Robin - Lead
What Robin loves most about VALO is the family-like atmosphere among the team and the value placed on work-life balance, we are cared for just as much as the clients by management. She believes body treatments are the most underrated service, since nothing compares to the refreshed, glowing feeling of a full-body scrub. To recharge, Robin enjoys spending time in the Wellness Playground (her favorite combo is the PEMF mat with BrainTap meditation), being outdoors, and being with her children and her lively “zoo” of five dogs and three cats. Something you wouldn’t know about her is that before joining VALO, Robin worked as an acupuncture nurse for nearly a decade in Lincoln.
