Hairstyles say a lot about a person: tidy trims exude responsibility, vibrant colors display confidence, and slithering snakes warn against eye contact. Wear your heart on your head with today's Groupon: for $25, you get $50 worth of salon services at Salon Serenity in Tuscaloosa.

The talented staff members at Salon Serenity, a Paul Mitchell establishment, attend continuing-training courses to keep their techniques up to date and to polish off their beauty-boosting services. The skilled stylists craft unwieldy strands into formal, elegant coiffures ($40+) while makeup artists daub colorful cosmetic products onto blank face canvases ($25). Rather than diving headfirst into a pile of red pistachios, guests can change their hair color at the Paul Mitchell Color Bar with custom hues ($45+) and full-foil highlights ($80+). Meanwhile, other locks revel in their natural glory with a clear-shine treatment ($50+, $25 for clear-shine top coat), and scissors snip away split ends and access inches to create masterpiece manes ($15+ for kids, $20+ for men, $30+ for women). While basking in Salon Serenity’s soothing environment with sleek, wood-paneled floors and pendant lighting, guests are treated to a complimentary sugary scrub, followed by a relaxing hot-towel treatment that leaves skin feeling as soft as new-hatched puppies.
