Curly hair salons

Absolutely! I found several excellent curly-hair specialists in New York City, including salons that offer DevaCuts, curl-by-curl dry cutting, and personalized curl-care education.

If you're looking for a salon that understands the Curly Girl Method (CGM) rather than simply giving you a regular haircut, these are my top recommendations.

Which salon would I choose?

My first two choices would be:

• Curlventure: If you want a Deva-certified stylist and personalized curl education.
• Ouidad: If you want an established curly-hair salon with extensive experience and a structured approach to curl care.

One important distinction: DevaCut and Ouidad techniques aren't automatically the same as following the Curly Girl Method. If you want CGM-compatible products and routines, confirm that with your stylist before booking.

Absolutely! If you're looking for a stylist who has formal training or certification in curly-hair cutting techniques, I'd focus on salons specializing in DevaCut, Rëzo Cut, and Ouidad.

I'm seeing some possibilities in the Florida Keys and South Florida. Here are the ones I'd investigate first.
