Walter Todd salon/spa is a full-service salon and day spa. Services include hair, skincare and waxing, natural nails (no acrylic or gels), massage and body services for both men and women.
Walter Todd salon/spa opened six years ago with the goal of creating a clean, friendly, fashionable place for pre-existing and new clientele to have their personal beauty services taken care of. The salon specializes in hair color and color correction – when someone goofs, they fix it. Their skincare department specializes in institute treatments from Paris to combat anything from anti-ageing to oxygenating treatments. The “Walter Todd Zero Gravity” manicure and pedicure has been featured in many magazines around the world, including South Africa.
All Walter Todd stylists are active in furthering their education to bring the latest in fashion and styling to the customer. They also carry a variety of gift items from teas to soy candles and fragrance reed diffusers – and many of their gifts have appeared on Oprah’s favorite lists.
Besides being business partners, Walter Stobodzian and Todd Bradley have been partners in life for 15 years. Stobodzian has been a hairstylist for 25 years and has worked as a stylist in his home state of Pennsylvania as well as in New York City.
Bradley is a photographer specializing in fashion and flower photography. He designs a line of jewelry and manages the salon. Before opening Walter Todd salon/spa, Bradley worked for Macy’s for 11 years at the men’s fragrance counter.
“We constantly are giving back to the community whenever we can,” Bradley said. “We believe in a wide range of issues that need support, and try not to tie ourselves to just one.”
Some of the charities they donate time and money to are Becky’s House, an organization that fights against domestic violence, Locks of Love, which creates wigs for children with medical hair loss, and AIDS Walk San Diego.
“Walter has even helped build a home with Habitat for Humanity,” Bradley added.
