$40 for a Haircut and Blow-Dry, Half-Hour Massage, and Brow Wax from Emali Lane Salon & Spa

Although birds are a non-judgmental bunch of aviators, they enjoy a good view when they fly above parks and walkways gazing at the scalps of flightless humans. Give our fine feathered friends something to admire with today's deal: for $40, you get a haircut and blow-dry, one half-hour massage, and an eyebrow-waxing treatment (a $110 total value) from Emali Lane Salon & Spa, located in the Plaza at Concord.

Emali's stylists make it their business to attend to split ends, frazzled fly-aways, and lackluster locks. The process ($60) begins with a scalp-tingling wash and conditioning, after which defiant tresses are snipped into submission under the masterful scissor-work of a talented hairmeister. After every i has been dotted and each t has been trimmed to look like an undotted i, your saturated mop is dried and styled to reveal a dazzling new scalp-topper. Highlight the new 'do with further face framing in the form of a brow wax ($20). After an aesthetician analyzes the curtain rods to the windows of your soul, she shapes up a new design with a quick rip of the waxy strip, leaving two polished arches behind.

In addition to cleaning up your keratin, Emali's licensed massage therapist will elasticize tightened trapeziuses, stiff scalps, and knotty spines with a 30-minute Relaxation Massage ($30). This human-meat tenderizing includes aromatherapy to pamper olfactory organs and hot towels to wrap weary mortals in swaddling warmth. After all, a shabby mane, fuzzy brows, and sore neck will deplete the bravado of even the boldest mobster's moll. Step up to the plate with today's deal and leave the premises with confidence in your gait and schmofidence left weeping on the floor behind you.
