Day 1
First things first: Treat Yourself!
There's something so decadent about getting pampered before a night out, whether it's a head-to-toe suite of services, or a simple mani-pedi, you'll feel like a fresh new you by the time you head out for the evening.
Head to the The Ten Spot in the South End for a Detox Quickie Facial and a manicure before heading out on the town for the evening!
