Hey there, Curly Girls!

(no longer)[Not Erica filter]

(Taking a short break from the final miles of the old thesis marathon.)

I want to do something nice for Erica (actually, several things, but this is one of them). She really wants a haircut, but she is wary of what some SuperCuts yahoo (for example) might do to her hair, and she doesn't know who she can trust among the many stylists out there.

Can anyone offer recommendations for AWESOME stylists? Money is no object (more or less, this is a big gift), but I am looking specifically for someone in the Bay Area who does curly hair exceptionally well. Would be great if they were also NO-POO positive, and generally Curly Girl Approved. There's got to be somebody, right? Six million people in the BA, and somebody has to be doing curly!?

Can I get some recommendations? I'd like to surprise Erica with a Card and a Reservation, especially if I can get it before Erica's folks come out west.

Also: Incidentally, someone out there on the nets has my copy of Lorraine Massey's Curly Girl, but I don't remember who. Does anyone know?

Ok. Walk around a bit, and then back to the thesis. I'm on the final stretch. I can see the finish line from here.

TOTALLY RECOMMENDED AND SECONDED.

They really impressed Miriam - and as Erica has curly hair they really are the best - complete specialists. They are trained by the people that wrote the CurlyGirl book.

Miriam sees Ginger, Rachel sees Ivy, but there is no-one there that isn't good.

Miriam and Rachel are going on the 9th, and she really wouldn't trust anyone else with her hair now - that are that good.

Plus - they are really easy to get to (in SF). Plus they are right next to a really nice Deli.

oh - and about $70-80 for a haircut, more if you want color (obviously) but you get what you pay for.
