ABOUT US

Your Place to Rest, Renew & Feel Beautiful Life moves fast. Between careers, raising families, caring for loved ones, and managing endless responsibilities, it's easy to put yourself at the bottom of the list. At Refined Escape Aesthetics & Wellness, we believe taking care of yourself isn't selfish—it's essential. When you feel your best, you're better equipped to love, serve, and care for the people who depend on you. Located in Franklin, Indiana, Refined Escape Aesthetics & Wellness was created to be more than a spa. It is a peaceful retreat where beauty, wellness, confidence, and self-care come together under one roof. Whether you're visiting for professional lash extensions, aesthetic treatments, wellness services, or one of our specialty providers, our goal is simple: to help you leave feeling refreshed, confident, and renewed—inside and out. Meet Erika Surface Refined Escape Aesthetics & Wellness is the dream and passion of Erika Surface, a licensed lash artist, entrepreneur, and proud mother of two incredible boys. Erika knows firsthand what it's like to juggle work, family, schedules, and the demands of everyday life. Like so many women, she has experienced seasons where caring for everyone else left little time to care for herself. That experience inspired her to build something different. She envisioned a place where every client could step away from the noise, slow down for a while, and invest in themselves without guilt. A place where beauty isn't about perfection, but about restoring confidence and embracing the unique person God created you to be. Erika believes one simple truth: "You can't serve others well if you don't first take care of yourself." Self-care isn't about vanity—it's about stewardship. It's about making time to restore your mind, body, and spirit so you can continue showing up for your family, your career, your community, and yourself. More Than a Beauty Appointment When you visit Refined Escape, you're not simply booking a service. You're stepping into an environment intentionally designed to help you slow down, breathe deeply, and leave feeling better than when you arrived. Our wellness spa brings together trusted professionals who share a common purpose: helping people become healthier, more confident, and more comfortable in their own skin. Our services continue to grow and include beauty, aesthetics, wellness, skincare, and specialty providers—all working together so you can enjoy a complete self-care experience in one welcoming location. Whether you're enhancing your natural beauty with gorgeous lashes, learning about wellness options, receiving aesthetic treatments, or simply taking an hour to relax, we want every visit to remind you that you are worthy of care too. Rooted in Faith. Guided by Kindness. While our doors are open to everyone, our business is built upon values that guide every interaction. We believe every person deserves to be treated with compassion, honesty, grace, and respect. We believe kindness matters. We believe confidence grows when people feel seen, valued, and encouraged. And we believe that sometimes the greatest gift you can give yourself is simply permission to pause. Life Beyond the Spa When Erika isn't welcoming clients or growing Refined Escape Aesthetics & Wellness, you'll most likely find her enjoying the simple things in life. She loves spending time with her two boys, caring for her horse, loving on her dogs, and enjoying the peace and beauty of country living. Those moments remind her that life's greatest blessings aren't found in being busy—they're found in being present. Our Mission Our mission is to create a place where every guest feels welcomed, encouraged, and beautiful. A place where confidence is restored. Where wellness is nurtured. Where friendships are built. Where self-care becomes a priority instead of an afterthought. From your very first visit, we hope you'll discover that Refined Escape is more than a spa—it's a place to breathe, heal, grow, and rediscover the confidence that has always been within you. We can't wait to welcome you. Serving Franklin, Indiana & Surrounding Communities
