Best Day Spa

Are you starting to feel like the bearded lady? Raise your hand if you believe the bullshit that "beauty comes from within." If that were true, there would be no makeup, plastic surgery, spas or People magazine. Time to go to Gadabout Salon, where you can be pounded, pummelled, waxed, tweezed, fresh squeezed, buffed, puffed, manicured and pedicured, reglued, extracted, elbow dipped, highlighted, lowlighted, backlighted, curled, hennaed and polished until wild manes shimmer and collagen lips glimmer. Wrap your tired body in mud, herbs, seaweed and Dead Sea salts. Pampering is a prescription for the soul. All tied up in knots? Well, everybody must get stone ... massages. Soft golden lighting and gilded mirrors, lemon-infused water and warm aromatherapy-scented towels--these are a few of our favorite Gadabout things.
