Birds Barbershop bridges the generational hair gap, uniting the friendliness of a barbershop, stylists who understand the value of a rock mop, and sweet poster art all under one disco ball.

The night he went straight? Or the night he finally struck it big with the score of a lifetime? A pottery heist, maybe, or some kind of real estate thing. The streetlight painted his sharp features in electric beige, and he felt cold and lucky.

At Trisha Leslie Skincare, all it takes to shrink wrinkles is a light. The LED pulsed light used during Revitalight light therapy shines over the skin in a polychromatic sequence, sending rays of various wavelengths deep into the skin. These rays heat the skin not only to impart it with a fresh glow, but also to expand cells so that they fill fine lines and leave the skin looking smoother. The Revitalight treatment represents many of the skincare options offered at Trisha Leslie, though the staff blends both these high-tech tools and basic techniques to help rejuvenate the skin. The oxygen facial mists the skin in its namesake element, and the LamProbe eliminates surface imperfections, such as whiteheads, broken capillaries, and the barcodes that your parents forgot to remove when they bought you. An all-natural tint made of vegetables helps darken eyelashes. The staff also specializes in exfoliating chemical peels, men’s skincare, makeup applications, and waxing.
