Madame Detox won’t scold you. She’ll turn a blind eye to your latest chocolate binge. She won’t frown at your recent vacation from exercise. But when you leave, you’ll feel refreshed and rejuvenated. Knock on the door of her apartment on the Ile de la Cité: let the detox session begin.
So, what did your sister think of her present ? Gentle hand massage. How did your New Year go ? Coat of nail polish. But what did he say to that ? Sip of detox juice.
This is what all morning-afters should feel like: a relaxing chat with girlfriends, a glass gently balanced in one hand, the other being softly manicured. You are in luck. We have found just the place. A relaxing manicure by the fire.
Your mother makes your father’s favourite dishes. Your sister has given her husband beautiful children. What about you? You know how to keep busy under the duvet on those long winter nights ahead. You even took a class.
The summer is long forgotten, there are no holidays soon and your next vacation is months away. Relax. Why don't you close your eyes for a minute? Or let's say 40... The time to have a shamanic massage.
For your cousin's wedding ? A braid. On a Saturday night ? A chignon. A glamourous hairstyle in 30 minutes, that's the specialty of this house, Le Comptoir à cheveux longs (the long hair parlor). And this month's special is called "Best Friends": bring a friend along to the salon , as well as both your outfits for the evening and walk out with two hairstylings for the price of one.
