Trifona Salon Cebu Expansion

<p>It’s easy to assume that beauty lounges are built around aesthetics. But at <strong>Trifona</strong>, it’s much deeper than that. What began as a humble nail and lash studio has gracefully blossomed into a full-fledged beauty lounge—one anchored in intention, integrity, and relatable luxury.</p><div><br/></div><div><span class="fr-img-caption fr-fic fr-dib fr-rounded" style="width:600px"><span class="fr-img-wrap"><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/1753765957058IMG_5362_VSCO.jpg" style="width:600px" class="fr-fic fr-dib fr-rounded"/><span class="fr-inner">Trifona is now a much bigger and brighter beauty lounge, located in Cebu City.</span></span></span>From the very beginning, Trifona’s founders, the visionary women behind The Sebuana Group — <strong>Anette Getubig, Jorissa Sebastian</strong>, and<strong> Elyza Young</strong>—knew they were planting the seed for something bigger. They weren’t just creating another pampering destination—they were laying the groundwork for a holistic retreat. In this space, clients are treated not just as customers, but as guests on a journey toward inner and outer wellness.</div><p>Their path to expansion wasn’t dictated by trends or industry pressure. “We never felt the need to jump on the bandwagon,” they share. “We ask: is this essential? Is this something we’re proud to offer?” This kind of intentional growth—slow and sure—has allowed Trifona to evolve in ways that stay true to its core values.</p><p>Now offering a full range of salon services, including spa and RF facials, the lounge has expanded but remains carefully curated. Every product, tool, and treatment is vetted for its effectiveness and compatibility with the diverse needs of their clientele. And while it’s tempting to ask what the best first-time treatment is, the team insists: “Start with what your body or skin is asking for. We’ll help you uncover it.”</p><div><span class="fr-img-caption fr-fic fr-dib fr-rounded" style="width:600px"><span class="fr-img-wrap"><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/1753766208472IMG_5361_VSCO.jpg" style="width:600px" class="fr-fic fr-dib fr-rounded"/><span class="fr-inner">A neutral palette, natural elements, and clean lines comprise the lounge’s aesthetic.</span></span></span>One of the most exciting chapters in Trifona’s story is its collaboration with <strong>Japanese hair artists </strong><strong>Jo </strong>and<strong> Hikaru</strong>—young talents who bring with them the<strong> refined traditions of Japanese haircare: precise, gentle, and deeply wellness-oriented</strong>. Their philosophy is now woven into Trifona’s services, adding an elevated standard of craftsmanship that regulars have come to love.</div><div><br/></div><div><span class="fr-img-caption fr-fic fr-dib fr-rounded" style="width:600px"><span class="fr-img-wrap"><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/1753766354012efe9f2aacb1ed222ef5d5518a6b0a515_VSCO.jpg" style="width:600px" class="fr-fic fr-dib fr-rounded"/><span class="fr-inner">Trifona collaborated with Japanese hairstylists for their expansion.</span></span></span>Of course, no experience would be complete without ambiance—and Trifona has designed theirs with meaning, all by themselves. The soft music, relaxing scent, and neutral yet posh interiors work together to cocoon guests in a sense of calm. It’s not just a service, it’s a sanctuary. “When you step out of our doors, we want you to feel not just more beautiful, but more centered,” the founders explain.</div><p>This depth of care has earned them glowing reviews—many from travelers and international clients—but what they cherish most is the quiet loyalty of their community. “Most of our clients come through word of mouth. They don’t always post, but they always return—and that means the world.”</p><div><br/></div><div><span class="fr-img-caption fr-fic fr-dib fr-rounded" style="width:600px"><span class="fr-img-wrap"><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/1753766434731IMG_5350_VSCO (1).jpg" style="width:600px" class="fr-fic fr-dib fr-rounded"/><span class="fr-inner">Launching soon is Trifona’s own line of pro-level hair care products.</span></span></span></div><p>Looking ahead, Trifona continues to dream, but never without grounding. The upcoming launch of their own professional-grade hair product line, <strong>B.pro Professional</strong>, is a bold new step. Created out of necessity and love for quality, the line speaks to fellow beauty pros and everyday users alike, promising performance without compromise. “B.pro stands for <strong>Beauty Professional</strong>,” they say. “It’s created by those who know what beauty work demands.”</p><div><br/></div><div><span class="fr-img-caption fr-fic fr-dib fr-rounded" style="width:600px"><span class="fr-img-wrap"><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/1753766543012IMG_5357_VSCO.jpg" style="width:600px" class="fr-fic fr-dib fr-rounded"/><span class="fr-inner">Trifona Beauy Lounge aims to be a space for recalibrating and realigning with oneself.</span></span></span></div><p>And perhaps that’s what makes Trifona truly special—its ability to merge the aspirational and the practical, the luxe and the grounded. In a beauty landscape often driven by noise and novelty, Trifona offers something rare: consistent pampering, evolving excellence, and a philosophy rooted in confidence and self-care.</p><p>If their next chapter had to be summed up in three words? </p><div><strong>Consistent. Evolving. Empowering.</strong></div><p>And that’s a kind of beauty worth investing in.</p><div><br/></div><p>***</p><p>All photos by <strong>Jake Russel Elnas</strong></p><div><em>Follow Trifona Beauty Lounge on </em><a href="https://www.instagram.com/trifonabeauty.ph/?hl=en" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><em>Instagram</em></a><em>.
