In the Old West, cowboys would often stop by the town salon for a glass of whiskey, a game of poker, and a magnificent mustache conditioning. Saddle up for shaping up with today's Groupon at Elan Hair: for $150, you get a frizz-defeating, locks-luxuriating Brazilian blowout (a $350 value). Administered by one of the salon's crackest of crack stylists in a chic, modernly minimalist space decorated with miniature topiary, the Brazilian blowout will transform the most mangled mane into a radiant river of shiny strands. This treatment is by appointment only at Elan's Green Hills location.

Similar to the system used to prepare a Snickers bar for interstellar travel, a 90-minute Brazilian blowout coats each shaft of your hair in a nutrient-rich layer of protective protein goodness, eliminating frizz and smoothing cuticles. A stylist will then blow-dry and flat-iron your locks, re-proteinize, and rinse and blow-dry again. Free of harsh chemicals, your new, smooth, and lovely radiance lasts up to 12 weeks and can be washed and dried without dulling damage.

Blowouts are popular for any kind of hair and can restore elasticity and softness to even the most stressed-out strands. Where a wrathful head octopus once suction-cupped stray scissors and cotton candy, a waterfall of must-be-touched feminine allure will cascade into place after the treatment. With your new, pulchritudinous mane, you'll be able to put silky lioness manes to shame at the zoo or become an instant celebrity for hosting the first nesting pair of endangered Beauty Eagles, which only rear their young in the most gorgeous of dos.

Call ahead to make an appointment. Elan Hair has a 48-hour cancellation policy.

• From the person who washes your hair to the stylists; all seem so happy at their job and it shows in the finished product, i get nothing but compliments every time i get my hair colored or cut and sometimes i just go in to get my hair blown out. – Chef Tammy
• I have been going there for several years. And not only are the services excellent, but the atmosphere is friendly. It's a "Cheers" setting for an upscale hair salon. – teresa37205
