I went to a place in Plainview (recommended by Pinky and Fireislandlove) -- they did a great job - and let me tell you - it is the best thing with having a kid (or in your case two Chat Icon ) - you just hop out of the shower and go!

ETA: it was cheap too - only 250!

Top Point!

I don't have the contact info but if you do a search on here it's been posted a few times.

Beth, posts a lot of NFR, has gone there several times.

Just a tip, if anyone's hair is a bit curly/frizzy blow it out first.

I went there with straight out of the shower hair (shoulder blade length, very wavy, curly/frizzy) and they wanted to charge me over $220 because they claimed my hair would be way down my back once it was straightenedChat Icon I had to go back and forth on this with them while Barb was sitting next to me searching LIF for another poster's old post (very long and very curly) of her Top Point experience when she paid under $200 for much longer hair. Good times, good times.

Re: NPR but I wanna get my hair Japanese straightened...

I used Top Point twice (Janice did my hair) and I loved the way it came out. This time I am thinking of trying a new place closer to home with the new baby and pumping and stuff. I was thinking of trying New Mode.

Personally, I wouldn't. JMO, but it they are pretty strong chemicals they use. Or maybe pump and dump for most of a day.

When I got mine done one of the women there was visibly pregnant... that can't be good for her or the baby... it definitely wasn't a well ventilated area.

Re: NPR but I wanna get my hair Japanese straightened...

I've heard great things about hair village like another person said above, its in Queens, no appojntments and its not a fancy place but my freinds who have done it, it came out great, and they are very picky. Thats where i think I will wind up, she paid 150 for shoulder length hair just a few weeks ago
