Visiting a Russian Bathhouse for the First Time | Macro Beauty | Refinery29

This week on Macro Beauty, host Carly Danner visits the historic Russian and Turkish Baths in NYC to receive the platza oak leaf treatment. The platza is thought to exfoliate the skin and deliver healing properties from the leaves and soap. We learn from bathhouse owner Dmitry Shapiro about the treatment and the spa's history.
