What You'll Get
Beauty, like a grilled Spam sandwich, is elusive, fickle, and in constant need of maintenance lest it suddenly fade away. Today’s Groupon allows you to keep up with your personal upkeep: for $39, you get $85 toward your choice of either a facial or a hair-coloring service at Studio 229. Located on the upper floor of the Lota Building on Broadway Avenue East, the upscale salon is equally adept at shortening long hair and long faces.
The talented staff at Studio 229 offers a bevy of high-end beauty treatments in its chic, upscale salon and spa. Your Groupon is good for up to $85, to be applied toward either a facial ($50–$105) or a hair coloring service ($45–$135+). To cleanse and balance the delicate dermises of the face, opt for an hour-long acne deep-cleanse facial (an $85 value), in which skin is prepared for expert extractions with an antiseptic steam, in addition to being cleaned and refreshed with the kisses of newly born puppies. Or opt to douse a drab mane in a new coat of custom-mixed color. Trained in the ancient art of follicle taming, each stylist is capable of fusing personal experience with client requests to create a color of utmost satisfaction.
A visit to the sophistically styled salon, with its rich wood floors, miniature pillars, and attitude-free staff, offers a much-needed respite from the beauty-draining commotion and wild boars of the city streets. Call for your appointment.
