If the shortest distance between two points is a straight line, then disheveled hair provides the least efficient route for climbing monkeys to reach the bananas in your fruit hat. Tame tresses for easy scaling with today’s Groupon for salon services from Alicia Clark at iSalon Studios. Choose from the following options:

• For $125, you get a Brazilian blowout or a KeraGreen hair-straightening protein treatment (a $250 value).
• For $59, you get a haircut and choice of single-process color or highlights and lowlights (a $120 value).<p>

With experience gleaned from classroom certification, stylist Alicia Clark smoothes and strengthens frazzled locks during Brazilian blowouts, which she has demonstrated live on The Morning Blend. Once Alicia coats wounded strands in smoothing potions, a flat iron seals in strength and shine to elude frizz’s imminent grasp for up to 12 weeks, granting wearers the freedom to style tresses curly, straight, or as tousled as a sock drawer in a hurricane. During formaldehyde-free KeraGreen treatments, organic amino acids, proteins, and minerals restore moisture and strength to weakened locks for up to four months. Alternatively, Alicia marinates full heads of lackluster locks in vibrant hues during single-process color or garbs elite strands in partial highlights and lowlights before shears update signature looks or create entirely new ‘dos.

Pure white walls float up toward a starry ceiling of track lights set against black as guests stroll past contemporary paintings and plush orange poufs before settling into Alicia’s private styling chamber. Before and after services, guests strut across the red carpet and browse through colorful rows of Biolage and Catwalk styling products.

Some Brazilian blowout products include the carcinogen formaldehyde, which may cause nosebleeds, headaches, vomiting, and respiratory problems, among other side effects. Learn more about the health risks here.

Some hair-straightening products that claim to be formaldehyde-free include aldehyde compounds, which are similar to the carcinogen formaldehyde. Side effects may include nosebleeds, headaches, vomiting, and respiratory problems, among others. Learn more about the health risks here.
