Saturn Club is a good place for decent hair cuts. You can ask for a trainee, which will cost $20 for a basic haircut and shampoo. The hairstlysts are all pretty nice. I had a lot of problem with the front desk people. They have a lot of attitude and rude about making appointments and accepting coupons (y ou can find coupons online or thru campus publications). The prices for the products were rather pricy. Make reservations in advance, as their time slot fill up. Esp during the school year when Penn and Drexel are in session.

There are places you can go for a massage and other beauty treatments, then there is Toppers. It stands alone with regards to atmosphere and service. I was a little intimidated my first visit, having never been to any place like it. The staff was warm and welcoming, and not stuffy and uptight as I imagined they might be. A one hour massage is approx $80, but well worth the treat.

If you are walking down south street, you can't pass this place by. They are normally really busy, but quick to get you your food. They have an upstairs and downstairs with tables for dining in, and not to mention, they sell beer. You can get it all at Jim's: a great steak, a cold beer, and nice place to sit and look out onto the street. A+

Desite being extremely small, this is one of the best BYOB's in Philly. The food was amazing and SO reasonable! All of the wait staff was super nice and always willing to help, except for the hostess who looked like she hated her job. I will definately be going back.
Pros: delicious food
Cons: very tiny

My boyfriend and I went to Pod for our anniversary and we LOVED it. We had a reservation and were seated immediately. Our waitress was extremely friendly, without being weird and she was very knowledgeable and well-trained. We got the crab rolls and spicy tuna roll as appetizers- they were fantastic. I had the Chilean sea bass (best I've ever had) and my boyfriend had the wasabi-crusted filet. Both meals were incredible! I forgot to mention how cool the restaurant was inside as well. All in all, I would definitely go back (for a special occassion- it was somewhat pricey!)!!! It was a really great experience!
Pros: atmosphere, food, service
Cons: a little pricey

If you havent been to Eulogy you are missing a fantastic piece of Philadelphia. The food is excellent, the service is immediate and the beer list speaks for itself. I am a regular at Eulogy and will continue to be a regular. I am a big fan of trying different beers and really learning about the beer at the same time...this place is perfect for that. There are many things on the menu that are "must tries"...fries, mussels, hanger sandwich, cheese plate...and of course all the beer. The buffalo wings arent the best Ive had, but thats about the only thing I can think to say negative about this place. The bartenders here are the most knowledgeable I have ever met. They can make dozens of recommendations, tell you about the brewing of the particular ale, tell you about the history of the beer and even tell you the best temperature to drink it. It makes visiting Eulogy more than just a night at a bar...its more like a history lesson, museum and party wrapped into one. Sophisticated or sloppy drunk I love this place.
Pros: Beer list, bartenders
Cons: nothing

So yeah this was my first time getting the Brazilian wax and I researched it forever before I got up the nerve to actually do. I read that this was the only place in Philly that uses the blue wax which is better that the other kind because it only sticks to the hair and not your skin. Meaning when the wax is pulled off ONLY hair goes with it, not the first layer of your skin as with the other wax. The atmosphere was clean and serene. Soft music played in the background. I went right after work as I only work a few blocks away. I got Jen and she was wonderful. She really made me feel relaxed and comfortable during my first time. She used a new stick each and every time she applied wax (I watched everything closely). She explained everything to me and gave me verbal praise which helped a lot. lol I?m going to request her when I go back. Surprisingly enough it didn't hurt as much as I had anticipated. It actually hurts more when I get my eyebrows done. I'm ecstatic about the results. No more razors for me. In my opinion this is the best of Philly!!
Pros: friendly, professional staff..neat, relaxing and peaceful
Cons: none

A friend gave a gift certificate for a massage here, and I thoroughly enjoyed it! Body Restoration is on the 2nd floor, with an unassuming entrance, but once you enter, the place is very relaxing. The massage itself was excellent (I can’t remember the name of the person), and afterwards, they offer pitchers of water with lemon.
