Urban Retreat Day Spa & Salon

The staff at Urban Retreat Day Spa & Salon makes pampering their clients a top priority, a mission that becomes evident the moment patrons enter the ultraluxe space. Picture windows overlook the Houston skyline, which, in turn, casts a soothing blue glow over the dove-gray walls and mirrored styling stations. There, artistic director James Fojt pulls from experience styling hair for Betsey Johnson and other New York Fashion Week shows as he mentors a staff of accomplished stylists and remakes manes using Dessange French cutting techniques and scissors that speak perfect Klingon.

Across from the salon, a row of plush couches and golden soaking tubs line the nail studio, which also offers pristine city views as trained nail artists wield eco-friendly products to paint fingers, toes, and the tips of forked tails. A conjoining hallway dangling with crystal chandeliers leads guests to Urban Retreat’s spa, where certified technicians discreetly perform massages and laser hair-removal treatments, as well as facial services bolstered by physician-grade Société Clinical Skincare products.

ClimbX

ClimbX's indoor, ever-changing rock walls mimic the dusty color of actual outdoor crags. In this environment, climbers of all ages and abilities strap on safety equipment and climbing gear and learn to master the hand and toe grips that cover the arena's artificial rock formations. The outgoing and experienced staff teaches introductory-level climbing courses that impart basic safety procedures, proper belay technique, and climbing commands. A kids' climbing club coaches climbers aged 17 and younger through the basics of tying top-rope knots and securing handholds tightly even when those handholds start to quietly chuckle. When not helping people turn into spider-people, the staff also hosts birthday parties and corporate teambuilding events.

The Groupon Guide to: Putting Lava on Stuff

Now that summer is cooling down, the only thing that's staying hot is lava. Here's what happens when you put the hot, wet stuff on other stuff:

Birthday Cake: Instantly liquefies the frosting, allowing it to seep into the cake's porous body and solidify, where, provided the lava hardens before destroying the entire cake, it will make the cake taste even sweeter on its insides

Car Keys: Doesn't melt the key but instead just surrounds it with a rock-like casing, making it much harder to lose and much more fun to throw to people

Small Pile of Stuffed Animals: Leaves no stuffed-animal remnants

Big Pile of Stuffed Animals: Leaves an even bigger version of no stuffed-animal remnants

More Lava: What do you get when you mix lava with more lava? Find out for yourself by buying your own lava from www.ilovehotredliquid.net.

What can't lava do?!
