Editorial Review for Vanity Beauty Lounge – by Chelsea Sime
The mission of this stylish mini spa in the Embarcadero Center is quite clear -- get in, get pretty, get out. Not in a rushed way, but in a we-understand-you-have-work-to-do sort of way. In fact, many of the services have times tied to them: chair massage ($22.50) in 15 minutes, tandem mani-pedi ($50) in 30 and a custom facial ($85) in under an hour. The interior is bathed in blacks, greys and the occasional splash of bright color, leaving visitors feeling like they've spent a day at a classy retreat rather than a lunch a block from the office.

The ExtrasVanity Beauty also offers waxing services, thankfully done behind closed doors in the back.
Know Before You GoReservations can be made online or by calling, but walk-ins are also welcome.
Look GoodDon't leave the staff hanging: 15 percent tip is standard but cough up 20 for a truly transcendent experience.
What to DrinkTake advantage of the complimentary glass of white wine you're offered when you walk in, it'll ease the pain of pumicing those calluses.
