Take us straight to the BAR! (Hey what do you want from us? We are new moms!) *Local-ish Edition*



Yes...it's exactly what you are thinking...that is if you are thinking of the newest bars in town.   Oh wait!! As much as Miss Me and I LOOOOOVEEEE ourselves a good Champagne or 5...



We are talking about a whole other type of bar.   The kind of bar that makes us look and feel beautiful with out having to make use of Beer and Vodka Goggles  *The "beer goggles" are considered to have distorted the "wearer's" vision, making unattractive people appear beautiful, or at least passably attractive.*



In LaLa Land and a few other major cities in the US, beauty bars are popping up everywhere.  They promise total beauty in no time flat and charge almost nothing for it...um hello?  Did you read that right?  Yup, you totally did!   




There are 2 we can't get out of our heads (or wallets) They each have their own specialty so you know you're getting the best...I mean you wouldn't go to a hand surgeon for brain surgery right?   Nail salons have been around for decades so it makes perfect sense why there would be shops popping up that do one thing and they do that one thing amazingly. 


Soooo you may have seen a few of our tweets lately drooling over The Dry Bar by uber mom, Alli Webb.   It's a blowdry ONLY salon!!!   Walk in with dirty dry hair and leave with glam goddess waves...done and done!


I know...we hate her too (in the best most adoring way of course)  ...anywhoo.. The Dry Bar is amazeballs.   You walk in to a salon so chic, so cute you would die to have designed it yourself or have it as your dream bathroom.  Its filled with white marble, white chairs and shelves and sunshine yellow accents....DELISH!!!!!  


It's visual perfection.   Then $35 (or $40 for you NYC'rs) and 30 min later you walk out with perfect hair....just choose your look from their menu and let the mavens take over...





To say we are obsessed is an understatement.   Yep...it totally is an indulgence but it's sooooo worth it!  And for $35 for shiny, sexy hair in under 30 min?!   Yes PLEASE!!!   Nothing makes a new mom feel rejuvenated like gorge hair...ok... gorge hair and a nutella panini.   





Oh, PS they are opening locations EVERYWHERE!!!


Ok, so we found the next bar from Daily Candy and it was crazy love at first site.   Its a super cute boudiour of a store that can take you from tired ol' gal to glam goddess in 30 flat.  Introducing Blushington.  


A makeup bar that just does that...make up!   Finally...no more booking terrifying blind dates with your local MAC counter...walking in not knowing what is about to happen.   




Blushington promises perfection and you can choose your look from their super cute menu.  They also offer classes for new mommies on how to look gorge in 5 min!!!!!   




So have no fear ladies....Blushington and The Dry Bar are there to help you look like a hot piece of ass with not a lot of cash :) (and in no time flat ...we couldn't figure out a rhyme for that one)



xoxo things we heart
