Making myself pretty (or at the very least- not scary)

Making myself pretty (or at the very least- not scary)

I don't wake up looking like this...I gotta work at it. OK, not "work" per se, more like "pay" for it.

Came to Salon Red for a trim when I realized it had been several months since my last haircut. Gabby was my stylist- friendly and knows when to chat and not to chat- very important for a stylist! However, she was a little too concerned with…More »

Update - 5/23/2012

3 years and many Yelp reviews later, I am still a happy patron at Wax! I had forgotten I was the first to review here...they had just opened when I moved to Inman Park, and they seem to be thriving, along with the rest of the neighborhood.

While I'm…More »

Stylish waxing salon and not at all snooty or pricey. Modern & soothing decor, great music, and… Read more »

Neighbourhood: Morningside / Lenox Park

1/11/2010

Mini 30 minute facial is the perfect winter skin pick-me-up. I can't stop touching my face!

Very efficient spa (they seem to crank out the massages & facials- very busy on the day I visited, even right when the spa opened), new age-y music, nice…More »

Pleasant atmosphere- spa/salon with a bit of a funky Little Five Points influence. It's been a week and my pedicure still looks perfect! Lots of the usual OPI and essie nail colors to choose from. Nice comfy massage chairs, hour-long pedicure with…More »

Kelli gave me a great haircut during my first visit to Sweetgrass Too! Well...I had a great haircut back in July, which had grown out so I asked Kelli to just cut an inch to trim my hair, following the current haircut. And she did a good job with…More »

My face was in need of a good facial after the winter. Spa Sentio had a Scoutmob so I decided to try the place out, rather than going to my usual spa. Upon entry, I filled out the requisite spa form in the small waiting area right next to the…More »

New location for Tonic, now known as Tonic Aveda. This new(ish) hair-only location on St. Denis features the same Aveda product focus, comfy & cushy beds at their hairwash stations (instead of chairs- still the best idea ever and makes me wonder why…More »

Salon Red- Thanks Kristin for a fabulous facial! And price was half off during the Hawt on Yelp event (thanks Kathleen!) My thirsty skin was dying for the TLC of a facial.

Weird name for a salon that doesn't feature red in its decor...a splash of…More »

I checked out Bliss Spa last weekend for a "blissage"- their signature massage. Let's break it down...

Likes:
- None of the spa new-age crap...music is soft pop (i.e. coffeehouse mellow), decor is modern Space Odyssey-white, spaces have clean lines…More »

Love the Aveda hair products and sleek but comfy 2nd floor space in the Edgewood shopping area. Sarah was my stylist- she did an OK job and was really nice, but I couldn't help leaving disappointed because my hair was the EXACT same style as when I…More »

Recently updated lists from Lucy W.

Inman Park/Old 4th Ward (25) Inman Park and Old Fourth Ward! Trying out all the places near where I live...love this neighborhood.	Decatur (9) Tons of great places to eat & imbibe...all within walking distance of a square.
Tastes of the Far East (20) Asian restaurants in Atlanta- I'm slowly compiling reviews from all the Asian restaurants I've tried in Atlanta- Chinese, Thai, Japanese, Vietnamese, etc...no 5-stars yet but plenty of 2-3-4 star places.	Carbo Loading- Italian Style (Atlanta) (9) Italian dining in Atlanta has made me a little gun shy...while I love Italian food, I had a couple awful Italian food experiences when I first arrived in this city and usually end up at the same 2-3 Italian places I do like...so hopefully, making a list will encourage me to try a few more restaurants out there. Here's all of what I tried (minus the pizza places).
Desert weekend getaway (11) Arizona vacation- Quick relaxing getaway, I need to make this a regular vacation destination!	Party of one! Dining solo (19) Places in Atlanta where I've felt comfortable dining by myself. The only requirement is that there's a bar or small tables off to the side- nice bartenders, easy parking and good people watching areas also are a plus. For me personally, It's also nice to have no judgment or people staring if I want to order multiple dishes to try and bring leftovers home :)
Restaurants to bring out-of-towners (14) Here's where I've brought family & friends visiting from out of town, who want some type of Atlanta food experience	Being a tourist in Atlanta (13) I moved to Atlanta 2 years ago but I still enjoy exploring the city like a tourist.
Dim Sum Quest- Atlanta (8) UPDATE: Found great dim sum!!!! See my last review on the list for Golden House. Original list description: I've pretty much given up on this one...I don't think great dim sum exists in Atlanta (especially a la carte and to go) so I'll have to settle for just good dim sum.	Escaping my office for lunch (8) When I'm sick of my office cafeteria, cross-eyed from staring at a computer screen, or my butt is numb from sitting on my swivel chair, here's where I go for lunch.
