celeb-hairHow about going to a hair salon the next time to get your hair cut, colored, or styled, where famous stars can breeze in at any moment?? Sounds like an adventure all in itself especially those who do love to spot stars in the same vicinity as they are in. Despite the fact that it may cost you a bit extra than what you normally do pay, the great advantage of it is you might even get to have an autograph from one of the stars. And don’t worry if the day you do walk in and don’t get to meet a celebrity, because there’s always the charm of being treated like a celeb yourself, and getting a cut just like one of your favorite stars!

Despite the extremely busy schedule of Garren’s, you could always wait a couple of months to get your appointment with the famous maestro in the hair-world. And if you can’t wait that long, and are dying to enter the revered gates of Garren New York, then you could always opt to get an appointment with one of the many stylists on-staff at Garren New York. The salon itself is a place to see, as you get have a great view of Central Park from its windows, and the architecture is loosely based on the Vatican library.

Sally Hershberger Downtown

Sally Hershberger is known for her $800 haircuts, and extremely steep $3000 extensions. But if you want to have a feel of what the A-lister hairstylist herself does to your locks, then have no hesitation, because you feel born again after the trip. However, to get an appointment with Sally herself will take you a couple of months, as the hairstylist works her magic in Hollywood as well as the fashion world at a breakneck speed. Known to jet in and out of New York, Sally has a salon in LA as well, for the Hollywood celebs. However, don’t feel deflated that you might not bump into a celeb in the salon in NY, as Meg Ryan, Julia Roberts, and so many others, are regular clients there. If you feel that the prices are too much, then you can always opt to get your hair treated by the other stylists at the salon, who will recreate the same look that Sally masters, but at a slashed price. The salon itself is an uber-chic place, with the right kind of feel to it. The stylists are extremely friendly and helpful, and don’t be surprised if you walk out feeling like your stylist has become your new best friend!
