CutLoose Ltd
Read Reviews1711 Westheimer Road, Houston, TX 77098 (map)
Short, punky girl cuts are the baked Alaskas of haircutting--they’re difficult to execute. But edgy scenesters love this Montrose salon for its ability to color, cut and style their hair to their exact specifications, whether they be bright blonde or blue.

Trellis Spa
Read Reviews111 N Post Oak Ln, Houston, TX 77024 (map)
Patrons indulge in full-body seaweed wraps and hot-stone massages at this ultra-posh spa in the Houstonian Hotel. The 30-foot hand-carved fireplace, fluffy bathrobes and glass-covered stream are the ultimate in extravagance. After spending time in these surroundings, you probably don’t need the massage.

Houston Gym
Read Reviews1501 Durham Dr, Houston, TX 77007 (map)
Speaking of getting your shoe caught in the brakes, Houstonians sure do drive a lot. Trimming down your car-seat butt is rarely pleasant, but the Houston Gym is one of the few non-big chains in the city to do it. Group classes, trainers and tanning are all available. Lethal Core class, anyone?
