Derma Technique Spa
Step into this serene setting and let it all go. From the friendliest staff to massages that take you to another universe, Derma Technique Spa is the place to go when you are looking for a low key, relaxing experience.
Located in a shopping strip, Derma Technique appears to be your standard, run-of-the-mill spa, offering services such as facials, massages and manicures. But from the second you ring to book your appointment, you'll find something different. Efficient, pleasant receptionists walk you through every service they offer without being wordy or overzealous. Once you arrive for your appointment, a staff member walks you to a plush, living room-like setting where citrus water and the scent of gorgeous candles await. We tend to get there early just so we do have a chance to take in the delicious waiting room! Derma Technique ranks far above any other spa in the city, with both gracious faces and stellar techniques used in their services. Facials (and all skin treatments, for that matter) are concocted according to the client's skin type and issues, ensuring great results every time. A wide range of OPI nail polishes and a killer paraffin wax treatment make the manicures and pedicures here well worth the money and the effort of booking an appointment (no walk-ins).
Best of all? The waxing. Yes, that's right. While most women dread getting waxed ANYWHERE on their body, Derma Technique uses the finest hard wax imported from France. Even coarse hair is yanked in one even swipe with little to no irritation afterwards. From brows to legs to bikini zones, request hard wax and skip the worry of pain. You'll never look back!

Gurej
Nestled on Houston's most happening street, Westheimer, Gurej is a fashion-lover's dream. Comprised of new school favorites and labels from around the globe, this is one boutique you must visit. The selection is unlike any other in Houston, ensuring you get a unique shopping experience each time you shop. Owned by sisters, Heather and Margo Harrison, the girls shop like there's no tomorrow, bringing their clients the best of what fashion has to offer. From Missoni shoes to Superfine jeans, Gurej also offers e-commerce (you lucky out-of-towners!) to extend its commitment to clients.
Anna Corinna bags (like the one shown here), Serafontaine denim, and Alexander Wang seperates are quitely displayed in a store that has a hip, fun ambiance. Always open for a chat, the girls are quick to assist clients that are just browsing, or those looking for a top for a date they have in "less than an hour." It's all part of the fun of shopping in a great place! Gurej is the only store for miles and miles that stocks Cheap Monday, a Brit denim favorite, and already popular with Kate Moss and Sienna Miller. Stocking LA based designer Jenni Kayne is also a bold move, as she isn't quite on the mainstream radar, but has stunning pieces and a stellar following thus far. With Gurej stocking her, you know the masses can't be far behind. From everyone's favorite basic label Velvet to the exclusive Rodo clutches, Gurej has something for the frugal gal, the splurging gal, and everyone in between.
