Ok Ladies, I am going there! The Dominican Hair Salon, we have all seen them. The ones with names like Clarissa’s or Elia’s Dominican Style Hair Salon. Just so you know… I am hispanic so, this is not racist, this is honest!
I go to a Dominican Hair Salon (New Image Salon, 547 Court St., Brooklyn, NY)…yes, I do! My weekly blow out is $20 and lasts (so long as I powder and touch up in the morning).
The Dominican Hair Salon is where you go to for a cheap weekly blow out & know that this is just what you get there. You may have arrived in $20 blow out heaven…seriously!
Pros:
Cheap – usually these salons are cheap, blow outs can be $18-$25. Hair cuts can be $30 and color $40.
Honestly, if you have very curly hair, this might be the best place for your blow out.
Wash – they usually wash your hair 2 times and then condition.
Cons:
Not a one stop shopping kinda place (not usually a cutting edge, place to go for a cut or color). Get your blow out (bring a book) and run!
First come first serve, and then some… Basically you can be there for 3 hours for a blow dry…ADM (Aye Dio Mio : Oh My God). It’s true!
The products are usually from DR and are made with natural oils like avacado, olive or coconut. Can be good for thick, course hair…BUT, way to heavy of a product for most. I don’t like greasy, heavy looking hair, come on I want light, soft hair, don’t you?
Be very specific about what you want and don’t want
Good Luck and let me know how it goes. You might be pleasantly surprised!
