Whenever I come back from a long weekend, the one thing that puts me in motion for a good (or at least semi-functional) work week ahead is dressing the part.
The first part I tend to focus on has always been my face and hair. I do have a ten-minute makeup routine I'll share on my YouTube soon, so I'm never too worried about that. My hair, on the other hand, needs all the help it can which is why you'll always find me bright and early at RPZL on those Monday mornings.
If you've never been to the braid and pony bar in Flatiron, you must give it a shot. First off, the salon specializes in hair extensions. But their stylists are so talented when it comes to whipping the best insta-worthy hair creations. If you're curious about the price, it's on par with the other blow-dry bars but the styles last a lot longer.
The salon uses the R+Co line, which I've come to love after dying my hair and re-learning how to care for it. The space is also pretty cute and would make for a great spot to prep with girls before any big or not-so-big event. If you're in NYC, check them out here.
