Unlike open-heart surgery or removing a squirrel taped to the upper back, a haircut is rarely a successful do-it-yourself project. Leave mane-molding to the professionals with today's Groupon: for $49, you get $100 worth of salon services at Orbit Salon on Cesar Chavez Street.
Orbit Salon's licensed cosmetologists employ a range of services to render unkempt manes into striking new 'dos. Superfluous tendrils fall from the experienced shears in straightforward but chic haircuts ($44 for men, $59 for women), and all-over colorings ($79+) cast faces in a vibrantly hued frame that helps hoodwink hot-on-the-trail private investigators. The continuously trained stylists also twist tresses into chic updos ($59) that can help guide gazes toward newly sculpted eyebrow arches ($19) or particularly fancy sombreros. Sustainably made Kevin Murphy products line the salon's ivory shelves, which draw an appealing contrast to the renovated 1920s abode's electric-blue hues and green walls.

The Groupon Guide to: Creative Discipline Ideas
Children sleep for about 18 hours a day, but they will sometimes act out during their brief windows of lucidity. And though any parent can teach right from wrong with a timeout or by withholding attention, it takes a special parent to discipline outside the box. Here are some creative punishments for unruly children:
- The child must eat two dinners before bedtime.
- The child must read your Toy Story fan fiction in which Buzz Lightyear spends 47 pages feeling sad about his life.
- The child must watch you smoke an entire carton of cigarettes while you explain precisely why doing so hurts your body.
- The child must get a boring art degree instead of a trendy business one.
- The child must defeat a robot version of his/herself.
