I don't know if this is exactly relevant to this thread but I can't think of a more proper place to post it. Anyway, I am not native to NYC but just doing a summer internship and I needed a cut/color really badly and I was looking for somewhere that would be under or close to $300 which is harder to find than it sounds. I ended up going to where my roommate goes which is Wonderland on w. 13th.
Anyway, to the point, I was all starstruck and excited because tons of models go there and are their clients. Usually when I get my hair done I refer to different models' hair and they don't know who I'm talking about but in this case like half of them actually got their hair done at this salon! Like Anja Rubik's "new" as of about a year ago bob was done there. Other clients in their book were Carmen Kass, Gisele, Raquel Zimmerman, Caroline Trentini, Anna Beatriz Barros, Isabeli Fontana, etc. times a million.
I don't know maybe these models go to four or five salons in every major city so it might not be a big deal but for me not being from NY I was very excited and thought that was really cool to get my hair done at the same place as them. And it's a cool hip salon and they do a good job and use Kerastase products primarily so I guess by recommending this salon, Wonderland, it's kind of relevant to the thread as a model hair tip since I know a lot of them go there. And as evidence, some superskinny 6' tall red head was there at the same time as me going blonde but I didn't recognize her. I think they do most of the models from ONE if that helps.
