Thanks to skin, the human body has a beautiful surface to present to the world that also keeps its cybernetic skeleton from escaping and terrorizing a daycare center. Today’s Groupon beautifies your pretty organ container with a series of four glycolic peels at Boom Boom Brow Bar in the West Village for $50 (a $116 value).
All four treatments—which Boom Boom’s ab-fab and New York–trained owner Malynda “Boom Boom” Vigliotti has given the playful codename “The Stripper”— work together to smooth, balance, hydrate, and revitalize your skin, giving it a softer, smoother complexion. Using top-notch products from MD Formulations, Boom Boom's glycolic peels have proven extremely effective in erasing fine lines, wrinkles, sun damage, discolorations, acne, and hallucinogenic miniature faces-within-faces by as much as 47 percent. At 20 minutes apiece, the peels are quick and easy; you can get your new skin in the same time it takes to freeze solid during a typical New York February. For best results, Boom Boom recommends that you alternate your treatments every other week and always refrain from removing your space helmet until you're back in the shuttle.
Though you'll come for the glycolic peels, you'll probably end up hanging around just to hear the vivacious Boom Boom joke with her staff and customers, and to play with her cuter-than-baby-shoes dog. When you do leave, you can feel as good as you look knowing that you've done a good deed—Vigliotti’s salon donates a small portion of its profits to UNICEF.
With Jack Frost and his catty wife Jane Frigid attacking your epidermis, winter is the perfect time to give your skin a hydrating boost and show up those haughty, porcelain-skinned newborns. Purchase one Groupon for yourself or as a gift for any friends whose winter-dulled skin has started to become indistinguishable from their apartment's wallpaper.
Reviews
Yelpers and Citysearchers give Boom Boom Brow Bar a solid 4.5-star rating, Facebook fans rave about the services, and the salon was featured on A Girl's Gotta Spa! style and beauty blog:
- While Boom Boom may have a wonderful sense of humor and makes beauty fun, she is also well trained from the Fashion Institute of Technology and worked in the fashion & beauty business for a long while. She also gives back and donates 1% of all services to UNICEF. Humor and kindness in your beauty technician? It sounds like a lot of fun to me, plus this place is gorgeous! – A Girl's Gotta Spa!
- The staff was friendly and real…great results, too. I'll go back every month. They also have the cutest dog I've seen in awhile. Say hi to Baby. – JennieSmash, Citysearch
- A trip to Boom Boom Beauty Bar is always great fun. The staff is wonderful and like Cheers, you feel that everyone knows your name. – Megan H., Yelp

If "Boom Boom" sounds to you like a crimeland nickname, don't worry. Careful maintenance of your appearance is actually the best way to avoid being mistaken for one of the grotesque two-bit hoodlums who plagued Dick Tracy in his popular detective comic. Coming up on his 150th anniversary, Dick Tracy still inspires amateur crime-stoppers each day with his wild exploits involving wireless radios and brutal gangland slayings. What other Dick Tracy villains have we come to know and revile over the years?
- Pruneface (deformity: wrinkled face)
- Flattop (deformity: flat top)
- Babylegs (deformity: adult-sized head perched on two baby-sized legs, no body)
- Christmas Face (deformity: covered with pine needles, always appears disappointed)
- Trick Dacy (deformity: possesses Dick Tracy’s exact face, except upside-down)
- Pumpkinhead (deformity: can’t stop thinking about pumpkins)
- Johnny the Striver (deformity: cares too much)
