The original Beauty Bar opened in New York's East Village on the site of a midcentury beauty parlor. Rather than toss out the vintage styling chairs and hood dryers, the owners kept them in place and bumped up the kitsch with glittery pink walls, chandeliers and mirrors. The concept caught on with such a fervor that new locations cropped up in Los Angeles, San Francisco and Las Vegas.

And now, San Diego's got a Beauty Bar of its very own. Located on a sketchy strip in City Heights, the bar attracts hipsters like the Gaslamp does tourists. DJs spin music that doesn't ever stray into ooontz-ooontz territory, from indie-pop to electro to funk-punk. Local bands play in the back patio area, which is also open air for smokers. You can get a $6 manicure while sipping a cocktail. And for people-watchers, the haircuts and outfits are plentiful.

 

Though Beauty Bar has only been open since December, there's no question it brings a refreshingly offbeat glamour to San Diego's nightlife scene.

 

The fifth member of the Beauty Bar family opened on New Years Eve 2006. At the corner of El Cajon Blvd and Euclid this diamond in the rough was once a notorious Hell's Angel's hangout called the Playhouse. The new barback came from an old barber shop in the northern New Jersey. The vintage dryer chairs are from Paul's Beauty Bar Salon in Austin, Texas. We boast a 1000sq. ft outdoor patio with a comfortable smoking area and a stage for live performances.
