About

David J. Witchell Salon & Spa has been a landmark business in Newtown Borough for over 20 years, attracting clients for the incredible talent from the stylists and artists.

The salon, once voted the Best One Stop Beauty Shop by Philadelphia Magazine, has everything a bride needs for the big day; makeup, waxing, formal hair designs, nail services and a staff large enough to accommodate any number of guests. DJW has 40 chairs for clients on the hair salon floor.

The Spa is unlike anything you've seen before, featuring a lounge designed to take away all of your worries. Pillows and candles line the walls, washing over your senses and creating a unique ambiance.

The Grotto, as the spa is officially named, is available to host parties, engagement celebrations, or bachelorette events. It is the perfect way to start out a wedding weekend stress-free.

I am so happy i went with amanda for makeup!

I had Amanda do my makeup for my bridal shower and it was just so beautiful!!! I had her do my makeup for my wedding day and she had notes on which makeup I preferred to recreate the same look!! I am so so happy I did this I even went to one salon for my hair and drove to this salon just to have Amanda do my makeup the day of, and it was perfect!!

I had my make-up (only) done at David Witchell's twice, once for my make-up trial and once for my day-of make-up. I had to pay for both times, but I got my lipgloss and lip liner for the day-of for free since I did the trial. I would definitely recommend doing a trial just to make sure your make-up is perfect (which mine was). It lasted all day both times, through the summer heat and sweating. My make-up artist was Dana, who did an absolutely wonderful job. I highly recommend her for any bride using DJW that doesn't know which make-up artist to ask for!

I got me hair cut/styled here before my wedding. The stylist I used was "Lilly" and she is wonderful! She cut my hair exactly the way I wanted I wanted it and is so sweet, too. It is a busy salon and has a tendency to be loud, but there are smaller rooms off the main one that are much quieter and more relaxing. They have many services available including makeup, massage, mani-pedicures, etc. Full service salon and they know what they are doing. May be a bit on the pricey side - but you get what you pay for here.
