If the shortest distance between two points is a straight line, then disheveled hair provides the least efficient route for climbing monkeys to reach the bananas in your fruit hat. Tame tresses for easy scaling with today's Groupon: for $149, you get a Brazilian blowout (a $400 value) at Adora Salon, an Aveda salon located in Oceanside.

The trusty stylists at Adora Salon provide professional service with a welcoming manner to all incoming clients. Indulge a stressed-out noodle nest with their Brazilian blowout treatment. Similar to the system used to prepare a Snickers bar for interstellar travel, a 90-minute Brazilian blowout coats each shaft of your hair in a nutrient-rich layer of protective protein goodness, eliminating frizz and smoothing cuticles. The stylist will then blow-dry and flat-iron your locks, re-proteinize, and rinse and blow-dry again. Free of harsh chemicals, your new, smooth, and lovely radiance lasts up to 12 weeks and can be washed and dried without dulling damage. Best of all, you'll cut your blow-dry time in half and need less hair product to achieve a stellar, shiny set of strands.

Bright blue and orange walls bedecked with colorful paintings and tasteful, modern décor woo Adora's seated specimens, who rest in comfy black chairs atop the salon's tidy hardwood floors. Regardless of your scalp brambles' static laboratory or glam-metal past, blowouts can restore health, softness, and vibrancy with beautifying flair. After the treatment, use your graceful, balanced appearance to impress a straitlaced love interest or ace a jury tryout.

Extra fees may apply for hair longer than shoulder length.
