My name is Jessica
Offering a customized experience to help you gain confidence in your own skin
MAKE TIME FOR YOU
whether it's offering support during difficult times or sharing in laughter. As an Aquarius who has lived in Nebraska my entire life, I can't deny my love for corn on the cob. When I'm not at Halcyon Esthetics, you'll find me at home taking care of my two young boys. Born in 2021 and 2024, we enjoy exploring some of our favorite local spots in Lincoln, such as The Lincoln Children Zoo, Morril Hall, and Ivanna Cone Ice Cream.
I believe in the power of touch to restore balance within, and my massages are designed to melt away your tension. With my graduation from Advanced Aesthetics in 2008, I bring a combination of education, experience, and intuition to create a unique and exceptional environment for my clients.
Halcyon Esthetics was established as a haven for everyone seeking solace. Our carefully chosen soft purple tones, locally sourced dried floral arrangements, and subtle fragrances aim to transport you to a tranquil sunset by the ocean. This serene ambiance serves as an escape where you can unwind and entrust me with all the decisions. On the treatment table, you can let go of any thoughts and simply concentrate on your breath, allowing the healing process to rejuvenate you from within.
I graduated from Myotherapy Institute with an associate degree in massage therapy in 2007. Immediately after, I pursued the aesthetics program at Advanced Aesthetics and successfully completed it in 2008. This marked the beginning of my journey in the skincare industry. Over time, I directed my focus towards esthetics and incorporated my extensive knowledge of massage into all of my facial treatments.
I pride myself on offering corrective and therapeutic treatments. By prioritizing the restoration of the skin's barrier, I am equipped to address any concerns you may have, ranging from redness and acne to pigmentation and aging. Continuously seeking to enhance my expertise, I am committed to staying updated with the latest techniques and approaches that minimize trauma and maximize healing results for your skin.
During your facial sessions, my goal is to create a relaxing experience for you. I want you to feel at ease, allowing you to fully enjoy the treatment. Ultimately, my aim is to instill a sense of confidence in you, empowering you to take charge of your skin's well-being on a daily basis.

Favorite scent?
The relationships I make with all of my clients
Favorite thing about your job?
Motions to house*
Definitely laundry. We live in a four story old home and the laundry is in the basement. Now with four of us, the laundry is nonstop. I'm definitely getting my steps and arm work out in.
Least favorite house chore?
I would love to return to the Lincoln Children's Zoo and be a zoo keeper. However, I would love to be a videographer/photographer-specifically for families experiencing grief and saying farewell to loved ones. It's such an overwhelming time, that you often can't remember who was there and how you said goodbye. It would be a privilege to be alongside them and capture these moments for them to look back on.
If you weren't an esthetician what would you be?
Rotting on the couch.
Favorite way to spend a day off?
Give me all the caffeine these days! Can't go wrong with a cold brew and some kind of foam or I love a splash of half and half. I've also become a sucker for all these fruity refreshers. I aim for local shops- Meadowlark, The Mill, or Alvin. but I have found myself also stopping at Scooters, Starbucks, and 7 Brews coffee.
Go-to coffee order?
Aquarius
What's your zodiac sign?
We are in the era of take out, but if we do'nt have the kids I love fine dining. My husband and I are big time foodies and i love taking inthe environment when at a restaurant.
Takeout or fine dining?
Jurassic Park - the original Stephen Spielberg
Favorite movie?
... Target. Lol, it's got all I would ever need.
