Beauty Spots
Sleek Move
Veronica Hearst, Chloë Sevigny, and Susan Gutfreund will no longer be colored and coiffed at Simon Sabag’s luxe brownstone off Central Park—instead, they’ll be heading, presumably, to his new digs on Lexington Avenue. The stylist has moved his Simon Salon to a sleeker facility, with slate floors, wall-to-wall windows, and a large flat-screen TV. Just like the old spot, there is a garden in back, and, most important, you can still get his signature blowout, which turns hair silky-straight in twenty minutes, even in this weather (874 Lexington Avenue, near 65th Street; 212-517-4566).
Brow Beaters
It’s a testimony to the importance of the eyebrow that Lancôme has just opened a ground-floor salon in Bloomingdale’s dedicated solely to defining the arch. The Lancôme Brow Shaping Studio will design and shape brows, then instruct a client on maintenance, all for a mere $15. The salon also sells the full Lancôme line, with emphasis on brow products like pencils, tweezers, brush-on gel, and setting powder. You can even get your make-up touched up, gratis (1000 Third Avenue, at 59th Street; 212-705-2023).
