Cheeky Parlour

The Soho House group have long delivered luxury for the lucky few that can pay to enjoy membership, and have some in-the-know pals to bump them up the waiting list. Well, screw them! This spacious grooming lounge within spitting distance of Shoreditch House, is owned by the same people and anyone can walk in for some of the cheapest manicures and blow-dries in London (£10 and £15). There’s nothing thrifty about the set-up or service, though. Laze about waiting for your treatment on an obscenely squashy velvet sofa, order crusty muffins from the in-house bistro, and the narcissists among you can even document your current state-of-face via a free selfie booth. Considering the deal you've just secured yourself, you should be looking very smug indeed.
