Kitschy, yes, but that's the point. Painted in a shade of Pepto-Bismol pink and adorned with chairs and dryers imported all the way from Long Island, New York, the Beauty Bar is a shrine to loveliness - and they fix a mean Pompadour cocktail, too. Inspired by the success of their first Manhattan-sited Beauty Bar, owner Paul Devit and partner filled a U-haul with vintage beauty salon equipment and set up "shop" in the diverse and bohemian Mission District, stopping along the way to comb Midwestern thrift stores for more treasures. The ladies' room is papered in 1950s magazine ads for Lux, Avon, and Newports, and yes, you can even get a manicure with your martini (phone ahead). Beauty Bar's happy hour runs Mondays-Fridays 6:00 p.m. - 10:00 p.m., and there's always a theme party on the calendar: Prom Night, Geisha Night, and Warhol Factory Night were some recent events. Regular deejays spin everything from French go-go to "lipstick lounge." The ladies come for the ambience, and the men, well, they come to check out the ladies.
