You Rêve, open on public holidays and bridge days
In France, tradition has local shops pull down the shutters on public holidays. You Rêve made the opposite choice: the salon stays open 7 days a week, 10am to 8pm, Sundays and public holidays included. No surprise closure, no locked door on the very day you finally have free to look after yourself.
In practice, you'll find the salon open on the vast majority of the calendar's public holidays:
- Easter Monday — the first long weekend of spring.
- 1 May (May Day) — the day almost everything in Paris closes.
- 8 May (Victory in Europe Day) — often bridged with the weekend.
- Ascension Day — May's classic bridge, four days in a row.
- Whit Monday — the last long weekend before summer.
- Bastille Day (14 July) — Paris in festive, touristy mode.
- 15 August (Assumption) — international tourist peak, a quiet district for locals.
- 1 November (All Saints') and 11 November (Armistice) — autumn's gentle holidays.
On top of these come all the bridge days — the Fridays or Mondays taken off around a midweek holiday, when the district empties of its offices. They are among the most pleasant slots of the year for a beauty appointment. For the year-end festive season (24, 25, 31 December, 1 January), hours may vary: just check the always up-to-date online calendar.
💡 Worth remembering: "open 7 days a week, Sundays and holidays included, 10am-8pm" isn't a seasonal tagline — it's how we run all year. A holiday with us is a normal opening day, neither shorter nor pricier.
Why a public holiday is the best time for an appointment
Beyond simply being open, public holidays and bridge days have a real advantage: they change the district's rhythm — and with it, the salon experience. Three concrete reasons:
Wider slots, a calmer atmosphere
On a weekday holiday, many Parisians tied to a work diary are away or off for the weekend. The result: daytime slots are more available than on an ordinary Tuesday, and the salon feels calmer. Fewer overlapping appointments, more time to chat with Dodo, Xin or the team about the shade, shape or package to choose. It's the opposite of the Saturday-afternoon rush.
The Tuileries district at its calmest
Our address, 7 rue d'Argenteuil, 75001 Paris, is three minutes from Tuileries metro (line 1) and ten minutes from the Louvre. On a public holiday, this corner of the 1st arrondissement breathes to a different rhythm: offices are shut, the pedestrian streets around rue d'Argenteuil recover their quiet, and the terraces of rue Saint-Honoré and place du Marché-Saint-Honoré are free of queues. The metro, meanwhile, runs as usual. It's easy to pair a treatment with a stroll: a coffee at the Palais-Royal, a manicure with us, then the Tuileries and place Vendôme a step away.
Time for longer treatments
This is perhaps the main draw. A hands + feet package, a lash extension set or a full reset needs a relaxed session — not a slot squeezed between two meetings. A public holiday or bridge day gives you exactly that: the luxury of not watching the clock. You leave immaculate, set for three to four weeks, with a clear mind.

Which treatments to choose on a public holiday or bridge day
You have time on your hands: make the most of it for the treatments that deserve a proper session. No holiday surcharge — every price below is a normal day's price.
For a shorter appointment that still changes everything, a few safe bets:
- Classic manicure + OPI semi-permanent — €45, about 1 hour, 3 to 4 weeks' wear. The most requested formula.
- SPA Luxe manicure + semi-permanent — €65, the complete hand treatment, scrub and massage included.
- SPA Luxe pedicure — €60, perfect for sandal-ready feet.
- Keratin lash lift — €65, a curled, wide-open gaze for 6 to 8 weeks, ideal for a dressy evening.
- Mani + Pedi package — from €65 (classic, no colour) to €135 (SPA Luxe + semi-permanent), to leave with hands and feet ready.
For nail art, a soft gradient (that barely-there ombré effect) or a seasonal shade — nude, signature red, summer bronze — suits any programme for the day. Our technicians guide you by your skin tone and the occasion.
How to book: flexible diary and a flexible-rate bonus
Online booking on ureve.paris is open 24/7. You see free slots in real time over the next 4 weeks, you choose, you confirm — secure card payment via Stripe, or pay in cash at the salon if you prefer. No middleman, no phone queue. Regulars of Planity or Treatwell will find the salon there too, and +33 6 28 97 33 37 is available to arrange a bespoke combination or a duo (mother-daughter, friends).
A few pointers to get it right:
- Weekday holiday (1 May, Ascension, a midweek Bastille Day…): more fluid than a Saturday. 3 to 5 days ahead is enough, especially in the morning.
- Holiday next to a weekend or the eve of a celebration: busier. Book 7 to 10 days ahead.
- Best slots: the calm, bright mornings of 10am-12pm, or mid-afternoon.
💡 Flexible-rate bonus: our automatic flexible rate (10am-12pm and 2pm-5pm) stays active on weekday public holidays. A reduced price applies by itself to a selection of slots, shown directly on the booking screen. Flexible on timing? Aim for those windows: gentle price, calm salon, and a coffee at the Tuileries as a bonus.
