| Description: | 231 E. 14th Street East Village New York Telephone: 001 212 539 1389 Hours: Daily 5pm - 4am; Sat and Sun 7pm - 4am Website Vintage 1960 beauty parlour turned theme bar where the theme is. Beauty Bar! Wander into a fragrant, blue rinse set-up and check out hip boys in trainers and shades sip cheap powerful cocktails while designer-clad girls in thigh-high boots have their hair styled under chrome dome hairdryers. Cool beats played by house DJs include an eclectic mix of Cajun and honky-tonk that only adds to the funky, offbeat feel of the place. It's the brainchild of theme bar diva Deb Parker (LA's Beauty Bar is a direct spin-off) and it's still got most of the original furnishings - including vintage salon chairs and kitsch 50s chandeliers. Only a 50s Formica bar counter has replaced the original styling chairs. His 'n' hers beauty products can be purchased in the bathrooms but we say purchase a Margarita from the dashing barman, read some sexually enlightening tips in the glam mags on the table, and check out which girl getting her nails done needs enlightening. |
