Beautification and relaxation methods have come a long way since the days of old, when women were known to rub snake oil on pores and accept pedicures from practically any boa constrictor. Slither out of old hat methods with today's Groupon: for $50, you get $100 worth of salon and spa services at Tranquille Hair & Body, located in Towson.

The award-winning and experienced stylists at Tranquille Hair & Body polish and perfect persons by wielding a queen's share of services. Tame tangled tresses with a basic haircut and blow dry ($45+ for women, $25 for men) or supplement a look with face-framing highlights ($55+). The OPI spa manicure ($29) and pedicure ($52) thoroughly exfoliates dry appendages by smoothly stroking all surfaces with a moisturizer-infused massage. Up north, on-the-go faces can remedy the wear and tear of everyday smiles with the 30-minute mini facial, which boasts premium products and personalized care ($45). Likewise, unwanted hairs can be whisked away through a variety of temple-purging waxing options, including total facial waxing for the eyebrow, lip, and chin ($32).
