The space is decked out in soft pink tones, with plush pink doors and matching ergonomic chairs setting the mood from the moment you walk in. A clean white-and-pink backdrop carries a gilded ‘PB’ logo, while gold-trimmed glass tables and sleek vanity mirrors give the interior a polished, high-end feel. Unique wavy full-length mirrors and warm ambient lighting round out what looks like a thoroughly Instagram-worthy pampering destination.
