Spa Belles is the best place to get ‘manis and pedis’ in New York. This is the place to go to if you want your nails to look perfect for a special occasion. They also offer other services such as waxing, oxygen therapy, massages and facials to name a few. Very good service at a good price.

Scott J Aveda
If you need some pampering for your hair, go to Scott J Aveda salon. The skilled professionals are trained according to the Aveda methods and use its products. When you leave the salon your hair will look shiny and beautiful. They have different stylists (junior to senior) who all have different rates. All services include consultation, shampoo and conditioner and a massage on your scalp, neck and shoulders. On top of that, you can choose between a makeup touch-up or a hand treatment.

The DryBar
If you’re looking for a place to get a blowout, I recommend going to The DryBar. Blowout is their speciality. No colouring, highlights or haircuts, it’s all about styling. You can choose your favourite blowout from their ‘menu’. They’ve got dozens of options to choose from: The Manhattan (straight styles), The Cosmo (luscious waves) or The Uptini (up-dos) for example. They even have a look book for children under 10, called Shirley Temple. After a visit, your hair will look perfect for an evening out in the city.

QC NY Spa
Enjoy a relaxing day with your friends, loved one, or by yourself at the spa on Governors Island. At the spa, you can find over 20 different wellness experiences; from saunas to steams rooms and from pools to facials. And you can admire the view of the Manhattan skyline. It is the perfect place to swap the bustle of New York for a few hours of relaxation.
Eric’s Tip:There are many beauty salons in New York and often you can just walk-in to have a manicure or a pedicure. Prices vary but what does not change is tipping. New Yorkers always tip in the beauty salon.
