Nestled in their idling carcoons, giant robots anxiously await the metalmorphosis after which they can spread their rocket-powered wings and fly. Treat yourself to a similar transformative treatment with today's deal. For $25, you get your choice of either one express facial or one express mani-pedi at Dakota M Salon and Spa (up to a $50 value). Customers have the option to put this Groupon's $50 value toward the cost of a signature facial ($70).

The warm and friendly aestheticians at Dakota M Salon and Spa know skin like the back of their own skin-covered hands. The staff uses high-quality products designed to make your skin shimmer like the surface of a lake at twilight, except not liquid, not transparent, and not flamey. Each 30-minute express facial ($50 value) targets your individual skin problems to restore balance and beauty to your face. Upgrade to a 60-minute signature facial for an additional $20 (paid at time of service) and quadruple the chances of being carded at an upcoming PG-rated movie.

If you opt for an express mani-pedi (a $45 value), the skilled nail technicians at Dakota M will reward your leg hands and turkey stencils with a neat nail trimming. Perfectly symmetrical tips will replace unruly edges, and cuticles will be gently groomed into a more sightly disposition. The friendly 'curists will massage your feet with their hands and your hands with their feet. Your handlebars and kick stands will be left feeling buttery and spry. A deliberate polishing finishes up your transformation from hand abandon to extreme extremity envy.

The facial-friendly mani-pedi mavens at Dakota M Salon and Spa will treat you like local royalty, providing a thirst-quenching beverage for your gruesomely relaxing day of sitting, breathing, and occasionally lifting your hands to drink said thirst-quenching beverage. Today's Groupon also makes a passive-aggressive gift for boyfriends and husbands who only know how to exfoliate with sand paper and rock salt. Call ahead to schedule your appointment.
