A blowout at Moment Couleur
Where? At the salon of Valérie Guérin, a color specialist surrounded by her team of experts. The setting: an intimate salon just steps from Invalides, offering personalized treatments and a customer experience that’s all about kindness and quality.
The treatment: the “brushing mémoire”, a semi-permanent smoothing treatment that eliminates frizz and tames hair. Thanks to its plant-based keratin formula, it promotes hair growth and enhances the mane. Done without flat irons, it respects the natural movement of the hair while giving it strength, flexibility, and shine.
The protocol: a professional diagnosis and an exfoliating pre-shampoo precede the application of the treatment. Then, time for the blowout!
The result: shiny, voluminous, frizz-free hair that stays that way all summer. It saves tons of time — and your hair feels incredibly soft!
Moment Couleur, Brushing Mémoire: €190, 45 minutes. 36 avenue de la Bourdonnais, Paris 7th. 01 56 28 07 43. Open Tuesday to Saturday, 9:30 a.m. to 6:30 p.m.

The treatment: the Manicure and Beauty Pedicure with nail polish — a high-end mani-pedi at a reasonable price that combines care and polish. Our tip? Add a hand or foot massage for the ultimate moment of relaxation.
The protocol: It’s a whole ritual! Hand soak, nail shaping, cuticle pushing and trimming, followed by moisturizing. For the feet: scrub, foot file exfoliation, cuticle care and hydration, and a two-to-three-minute massage that reaches up to the calves.
The result: flawless hands and feet, ready to show off with rings or sandals.

A full-body scrub at marocMaroc
Where? At the beautiful and one-of-a-kind marocMaroc spa in Paris, recently opened in the heart of the Marais.
The treatment: the Évasion Ambrée ritual, an intensive exfoliating and hydrating treatment inspired by ancient beauty traditions and featuring the brand’s luxurious products, which blend tradition and expertise.
The protocol: the exfoliation ritual begins with a deep scrub of the entire body using Miel d’Ambre, a powerful detox scrub applied in circular motions with a kessa glove that also exfoliates. Blood starts flowing, the body relaxes, the mind drifts. Then, Jardin Mille Roses rose water is misted over the skin. After rinsing with warm towels, Roses de Sucre cream is applied with light massage strokes for intense hydration and total well-being.
The result: an ultra-silky finish, skin free of toxins, radiant, and ready for a golden tan.
marocMaroc, Évasion Ambrée: €100, 1 hour. 5 rue des Francs Bourgeois, Paris 4th. 06 66 69 97 26. Open Tuesday to Saturday from 10:30 a.m. to 7:30 p.m., Sunday at 11 a.m., and Monday at noon.
A refreshed gaze at Fulltimeglam
Where? On a quiet street near Parc Monceau is Fulltimeglam, a chic, bright salon run by Lucia Popa. With years of experience and in-depth eyebrow training across the globe, Lucia developed her exclusive Browlines method. A true eye expert, she also works wonders on lashes.
The treatment: the Lash Lift, a lash enhancement that lengthens and curls lashes for a natural mascara-and-curling effect. You can also add a tint for an extra pop.
The protocol: a silicone mold is applied to the eyelid to fix and stretch the upper lashes one by one. Then a keratin treatment is applied to strengthen the lashes. Finally, they're gently detached with oil — and done!
The result: a naturally glam doe-eyed look that lasts 4 to 6 weeks and saves precious time each morning. Yes, you can absolutely swim with it!
Fulltimeglam, Lash Lift: €160. 22 rue de Chazelles, Paris 17th. Open Monday to Friday from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m., Saturday from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m.
