What You'll Get
Ever since the fourth-grade Supreme Court outlawed do-overs, the makeover has been the only recourse for getting hit in the face with a tetherball. Make up for a misplaced serve in high style with today's Groupon: for $59, you get a mini-makeover package (up to a $183 value) at Matthew Robert Color + Design in Des Peres. Each mini-makeover package includes a haircut (normally $48–$66), a styling lesson, a deep-conditioning treatment (normally $15), and a shine-enhancing color treatment (a $52 value), followed by an eyebrow shaping ($15) and a full makeup application ($35). You may schedule your entire package all at once, or split your treatments across two separate appointments.
The stylists at Matthew Robert Color + Design begin each visit with a consultation in order to create an accurate CAD blueprint of a hair design that works with your face shape, lifestyle, and personal requests while still being structurally sound enough to weather earthquakes. Once they've sculpted your disheveled noodle nest into a magnificent mane, they'll give you a styling lesson so that you can recreate the new 'do at home without having to install a height-adjustable salon chair. Next, a custom-blended Powerdose deep-conditioning treatment will airlift heavy buildup from each follicle, add volume to quiet locks, and amp up highlights and lowlights. This process will prepare locks for your choice of a shine-enhancing color treatment, feature highlights, or a single-process color.
Once your self-portrait is framed by fresh follicles, an eyebrow shaping ($15) will accentuate the eyes so that you look less like the Swedish Chef, while a Glominerals makeup application ($35) will add a layer of UV protection and matte coverage to your skull-mask. Expect to emerge from Matthew Robert Color + Design's chic confines rocking a hot new look that sends passing cartoon wolves into lust-addled conniptions.

- I don't need to do any styling beyond putting a product in and scrunching it as it dries. I'm hooked and have referred several friends who all feel the same way. – Eileen P., Yelp
