Women of Manhattan rejoice; we have found the long lost haven of our bustling metropolis. Long gone are the days when women had the luxury of leisurely spending their time primping and gossiping at their favorite salon. This day and age yields a woman on the go who seeks tiny moments of refuge from her everyday life. Ladies, Elite is proud to introduce you to Fix Beauty bar; your saving grace.

Comfortably nestled in the midst of Manhattans prestigious Lexington Avenue, this oasis seamlessly fuses chic elegance and city girl flare. Fix Beauty Bar is a standout among its numerous competitors due to the vision that owners Karol Markowicz and Michelle Breskin have brought to life.

Writer Karol, and ex-financier, Michelle have captured what every woman in this city was yearning for; a one stop shop that serves every whim.

“A blowout and a simultaneous manicure is a must. These services are a part of the NY woman's weekly routine and we look to streamline them into a fast but perfect experience.” - Karol Markowicz

Your unforgettable experience at Fix Beauty Bar starts upon your arrival as you are warmly greeted by the staff. Making your way through the corridor adorned with calm purple hues and funky vintage blow-dryers, you are immediately offered a choice of beverage – flavored waters, top of the line coffees, and exquisite wines.

As you park on the large, plush white couch a few feet away, you are encouraged to pick from an array of magazines – spanning from The Economist to Us Weekly – as your beverage and snack is brought to you. Next, you are escorted through the hallway into the main room reminiscent of youthful glamour.

“We're not a salon, exactly. We call ourselves a blowout and nail bar. We only do blowouts, manicures and pedicures. No cuts, color, waxing, eyebrow threading, nothing else. We focus on those two things and do them well. We provide a luxurious in a beautiful space with exceptional service.” - Michelle Breskin

Walking around the beautiful white marble manicure station, you face a large wall filled with enough nail polish colors to make any girl giddy. Exclusive colors from collections such as Tom Ford, Dior, Chanel, OPI, and Nars are at your complete disposal.

The square manicure station is thoughtfully designed so that eight women can sit on the outside of the square, while the manicurists are on the inside. This way, women get the opportunity to speak with their girlfriends while getting pampered. While your manicurist is working on your nails, your hair stylist is behind you perfecting every strand of your hair. To ensure your convenience even further, nail dryers are built right into the station.

“What is amazing about Fix is that I don’t have to move from place to place in order to get everything done. My manicure and hair happen while I’m sitting in same exact place!” - Guest of Fix Beauty Bar
