If you're looking for a place to get a drink, get your nails done and your hair styled under one roof, Her Majesty's Pleasure is the place to go in Toronto.
The destination spot was conceived by husband and wife team Sara Kardan and Jeff Armstrong, who dreamed of taking the combination of a blow dry bar and nail spa to the next level. The space has a cool, relaxed vibe, making it somewhere you just want to settle into. Unlike a conventional beauty shop, after you've finished getting all dolled up, you're encouraged to stay, kick back and have a drink. Her Majesty's Pleasure on Toronto's King Street is already becoming known as the place to pre-party before a night on the town, although it's becoming a great late night spot too.
