Beauty & Spas in Leander

The hands are the astronauts of the body—the first explorers to make contact with any matter in your orbit—and the feet are the blazing rockets that propel you into space. Take care of your trustworthy space objects with today's Groupon to Polish Nail Spa: $40 for an essential mani and ultimate pedi (a $73 value). This deal doesn't just spiff up your hands and feet, it invigorates the senses with a bouquet of essential oils and the underutilized arts of hand and foot massage. What She Says: “Girl, we deserve this day for ourselves!” What She Means: I deserve pampering; you deserve my scornful eye, you wretched pile of decrepitude.

Viva Day Spa’s owners focus on providing all the services and amenities one would expect from a luxurious spa without an ounce of pretentiousness. At both of the spa’s locations, staffers never turn their noses up—even if there’s a bat hanging from the ceiling. They engage clients with this down-to-earth attitude as they prepare them for massages, facials, and other spa treatments—all of which are administered by award-winning therapists armed with natural and organic products. Both Viva Day Spa locations feature an upscale, modern decor rife with wood accents, and the Lamar location displays perky plants and colorful flowers, as well as whimsical yellow puffy orb lights, natural sunlight, and arched doorways with intricate wood carvings. One of its walls showcases a large expanse of lettering that gives “suggestions on how to live a happy and rewarding life,” and there’s even a round room with a curved, pillow-topped bench circumscribing its curved wall. With warm, almost romantic lighting and rich mocha-colored walls, the spa is anything but sterile and cold. The female-owned spa works to accommodate people’s hectic schedules by staying open seven days a week until 8 p.m.

Like your younger brother who starred in Living Single, hair can sometimes show up uninvited and refuse to leave. Today’s Groupon rids you of stray strands with the services of a hair-removal expert. For $30, you’ll get a brow, lip, and bikini line or full bikini wax at Brazilia Waxing Spa, located in central Austin just north of the University of Texas campus and several feet from Bolivia.Follow @Groupon_Says on Twitter.

On-staff certified wellness counselors will personalize a plan tailored especially to your lifestyle, schedule, and consumption habits. The program prides itself on being a lifestyle, not a diet, meaning you'll get to chomp on real foods both at home and in restaurants while shedding weight. Your real-world meals will be supplemented with high-nutrient protein supplements. Next, if you reach your desired weight within the 6-week trial period or choose to continue the program until you reach this weight, you'll shift into the stabilization phase. In this phase you'll work with a nutritional counselor to gradually up your caloric intake to maintain a desired weight. Moderate exercise is also recommended to round out BHWLW's well-rounded program.

Once you have your Groupon, you can schedule an appointment with a master hair shamans Lisa Brooks, who will color and gloss your hair, and Beto Diaz, who will focus on cutting and charming Medusa head-snakes. Your hair wizards will sense your innermost hair-yearnings, then direct their careful scissors in tune with your thoughts and dreams, letting creative forces flow wildly onto your scalp for a haircut that revolutionizes the way you look in the mirror—inside and out. A partial highlight will bring your new look into spring, ensuring that your new hue complements your complexion. A luminous gloss will protect and brighten your color like dew fighting grasshoppers from a fledgling blade of grass. Afterward, in the streets, you might find that your magnificent mane busts the binds of its bowler hat and leaps into sunshine, dappling the dark alleyways of careless coiffeurs.

With an airbrush tan, you can instantly transform your look, shocking friends and startling enemies into revealing their secrets. Airbrush Tans of Austin sprays you with an all-natural aloe-based bronzing solution packed with body-boosting vitamins and customized for your skin tone. A butterscotch hue can mask unsightly skin woes (spider veins, cellulite) while also slenderizing, shaping, and making your teeth shine brighter than a metal suitcase in a microwave.
