Best Cheap Date (aka Where We Go for a Trim When We've, Er, Overextended Our Budgets)
Sometimes, an opportunity that we just can't pass up presents itself. Like that fuchsia Marc by Marc bag, originally $800, marked down to $450. Problem is, sometimes those "opportunities" crash our budget, leaving little room for essentials like, say, the snipping of our split ends. Fortunately, we have the Launch Pad at G2O (338 Newbury Street, Boston, 617.262.2220) to fall back on. Composed of a group of the salon's stylists-in-training who aren't quite experienced enough to maintain their own chairs, the Launch Pad offers amazing deals on cuts and color - plus, the chance to boast "We knew them when..." once these sure-bet beauty-stars-to-be make it big.
