For $25, today’s side deal gets you $50 worth of massage, facial, or waxing services at Quinntessential Gentleman, an upscale barbershop on South Calvert Street.

Channeling the enchantment of 1800s barber parlors, Quinntessential’s luxurious grooming grounds are cushioned by other sophisticated amenities, including a billiards room, putting green, cigar lounge, and coffee and espresso bar. Unwind with Swedish and deep-tissue massages, which are doled out in half-hour ($40 for Swedish, $45 for deep tissue) and hourlong doses ($75 for Swedish, $80 for deep tissue), the former concentrating on light-pressured, relaxing kneads, the latter employing more focused pressure to tackle tricky tangles and knots. Three luxurious facial treatments ($40–$100) are offered, including The Quickie, which cleanses and conditions skin in 30 minutes ($40). With a professional waxing treatment, wily whiskers can be banished from your countenance for longer than with shaving. Using high-quality Epillyss products, Quinntessential’s talented team removes unwanted hairs from areas such as the upper cheeks ($10), chest ($30+), arms ($25–$35), and eyebrows ($18).

By appointment only.
