Relax and Pamper: Just for the girls By L’Asia Brown Let's admtJ it, college girls work hord. Many hold part-time jobs, have full course loads, participate in elite organizations, dedicate strenuous community ser vice, and still manage to get to dinner with the girls on Fri day night. With exhausting 8 o'clocks, piles of homework, hours of studying, tons of of fice errands and millions of miscellaneous commitments lying within just a day's work, many young ladies begin to neglect themselves and their body's need for pure relaxation and an oc casional spoil. Fayetteville, with its lim ited number of salons and spas, can make finding a se rene getaway a little bit dif ficult. Fortunately, The Voice went on a hunt throughout the All-American city to search for quality hair care services, great nail salons, impressive spas, and irresistible coffee shops that girls can visit for professional pampering, af fordable beauty indulgenc es, and cozy mini-vacations. You'll want to dedicate your entire Saturday to "per sonal beautification" after you learn about these tasty treats, comfortable cofes, ex cellent salons, and creative nail hot-spots! HAIR CARE HOT-SPOTS The need for arete in the Fayetteville hair care industry is perhaps, underesti mated. Die-hard divas and old-fashioned grandmothers remain in agreement on the statement, "Hair is a woman's crown and glory". A sassy "do" can bring the most boring, repulsive, bland outfit to life. It also has the ability to make the classiest, hottest, most expensive ensem ble look cheap and insignificant. We fea tured a favorite salon who offers every hair care service from hot oil treatments and head massages to full head weaves and extravagant color. Salon 224 803 Stamper Rd. Fayetteville, NC 28303 (910) 867-1583 This discrete salon is located adja cent to Eutaw Skating Rink. Salon 224 is equipped with experienced stylists, cushy chill chairs, and a professional environment, contrary to the notorious "beauty salon" reputation. Stylists of fer services ranging from relaxers, color treatments, and roller sets to more dra matic coifs such as full head weaves, po nytail up-dos, and designed cornrows. Prices run $30 and up, depending on your individual style and preference, and a nail artist is on duty just in case you may want to classily complete your look. It's a quick five minutes away from FSU, and is definitely worth the trip. relax . reconnect indulge Are You A Comm.
