Beautyland (CLOSED)

This Union Square beauty supplier is a San Francisco mainstay, open since 1983. The well-appointed shelves bear hundreds of hair, nail, skincare, and cosmetic brands, including Pureology, Chi, Essie and OPI, Bumble & Bumble, and Moroccan Oil. One wall is filled with brushes and a wide variety of hair styling tools, from curling irons and straighteners to trimmers, clippers, and blow dryers. And while it’s situated in the middle of the city’s tourist hub, San Francisco residents receive 10 percent off all purchases.
