We’ve known about Tuckahoe’s Bella Spa & Nails (82 Lake Ave, 914-346-5525; thebellasalonandspa.com), a petite, but airy space perched atop Louis De Chiarro Salon, for a while now, but it’s worth working into your errands-day if you’ve only passed by on your way to Metro-North. Less hectic than a walk-in nail salon, but not as high-maintenance as a Red Door-type place, it’s the perfect stopover for a mini treat-yourself service that won’t swallow your whole day—or beauty budget. For the mom who’d rather not spend Sunday baking in mud or clay, book a weekday green tea spa pedicure, a seriously relaxing, exfoliating-moisturizing combo, for two. Or introduce her to CND shellac, in an inclusive array of neutrals to summer-ready brights. Did we mention waxing is half-off all summer long?
