Although birds are a nonjudgmental bunch of aviators, they enjoy a good view when they fly above parks and walkways, gazing at the scalps of flightless humans. Prettify yourself for the parrots and pigeons with today's Groupon: for $149, you get a haircut (up to a $65 value) and a Brazilian blowout (a $350 value) at Salon 5th Ave. (up to a $415 total value).
The experienced stylists at Salon 5th Ave. revamp forlorn follicles with utmost care and fashionable flair. Along with snipping away at snippy split ends, haircuts include a cleansing shampoo session and a stress-dissolving neck-and-scalp massage. The Brazilian blowout can restore elasticity and softness to even the most stressed-out strands, employing a plant-derived bonding system that releases no formaldehyde or dirty looks before, during, or after treatment. Where a wrathful head octopus once suction-cupped stray scissors and cotton candy, a waterfall of must-be-touched feminine allure will cascade into place after the treatment.
Whitewashed walls and full-length mirrors give Salon 5th Ave. an upscale and fashionable feel, and marble tiles give the space panache and a telepathic link to the muses.
Salon 5th Ave.
Massive floor-to-ceiling mirrors reflect the transformations as stylists snip, foil, crimp and round-brush twirl. Clients walk into Salon 5th Avenue Hair & Spa seeking a new look, and within the clean, cream-colored space stylists are hard at work bringing visions to fruition. Stylists administer men's and women's haircuts, color, and extensions, and nail technicians coddle hands and feet during mani-pedis. Before reentering the outside world, clients can purchase Moroccanoil products to keep styles as fresh as a newborn dryer sheet.
