Straightening treatments allow hair to achieve its full potential without an overpriced liberal-arts education or a repressive boot camp for stubborn curls. Let your locks down with today's Groupon: for $120, you get a Brazilian Blowout at Lavish Hair Salon & Day Spa in Riverside (a $300 value).
The savvy stylists of Lavish Hair Salon & Day Spa dedicate their days to elite treatments for the terminally curly, offering both original and ZERO-brand formulas of the tress-taming Brazilian Blowouts that can last up to 12 weeks. Over the course of about 90 minutes (times vary depending on hair length), frizzy cranial carpets are smoothed, sheened, and feather-adorned for Carnival. Sealing in plait straightness with a protein shield, these treatments contain no formaldehyde and are effective on chemically treated hair. A progressive sequence of solution application and blow-drying culminate in lengthy, lustrous hair as straight-laced as a fashionable accountant.
Lavish Hair Salon & Day Spa
The stylists, skin soothers, massage therapists, and nail and makeup artists at Lavish Hair Salon & Day Spa have seen their fair share of media buzz. So has owner, master stylist, and senior Goldwell hair-color educator Samantha Murguia, whose color-correction skills found themselves under the spotlight on ModernSalon.com. In 2010, OCFamily.com editor Susan Belknapp blogged that not only was her Brazilian Blowout with Murguia "a relaxing, fast-moving treatment," but also that she found the result to be "fantastic." Murguia and her team have also been featured multiple times in Inland Empire Magazine and, in 2011, graced CBS’s list of LA’s Best Blow-Drys.
Perhaps the high praise is a result of the expertise with which Murguia's crew performs their services. Or perhaps it’s the fact that they keep a close eye on the latest youthful trends. The staff includes a teen blogger who has her finger on the pulse of the beauty industry, and the salon has been accepting donations of gently used dresses, shoes, and accessories to help girls attend the prom in style. They have even offered teen makeup tutorials that explain how to complement natural facial features and use a smartphone’s blush-administering app.
