I've never done this before…posted TWICE about a fave grooming spot…but I had a long overdue mani-pedi yesterday at RECESS and it was just so special, I had to write about it again. The place is so beauteous, the care and expertise so top-notch, the owner Nidhi soooo lovely, the products and polishes so exquisite, it really is worth treating yourself to the Recess experience one of these days if you have yet to get there.
Perfect for a date with a date with a girlfriend or if you need a suppperr relaxing hour away from the noise of work, kids, life in general. Not only do I lose my mind over the insane polish collections and brands to choose from, but man, do the have the best junky-fun magazine collection in town!!
No wonder it's a fave of all these glossy mags.
