WHY IT’S HOT Pampering indoors is fabulous, but here you can relax in the warm California sun while getting a luxurious mani/pedi. Gwen Stefani recently had her nails done on the outdoor balcony of the Fekkai outpost on Melrose. While it's best known as a hair salon that celebrities like Kirsten Dunst and Heidi Klum frequent, it's also a top destination for nails.
