There are probably dozens of Curl Up and Dye shops around the county, although I have personally only seen the one in Minneapolis.<br /><br />You should make this a project of yours and just do some internet research. It would take your mind off some of your political cogitations and worries.<br /><br />You can do a Google search for the yellow page listings in any city you want. I randomly picked Seattle and searched for Beauty Salons. Some of the results are:<br /><br />Stylus<br />Wild Roots Salon<br />Vain<br />Cowboys and Angels Salon<br />Hair Shaft<br />Helmet Head<br />Cut Loose Collective<br />Over the Top<br />Spoiled Hair Studio<br />Hair for You<br />Vivian's Clip Joint<br />The Locks Shop<br />Shear Elegance<br />Shear Madness<br />Chop House<br />Untangled Spaces<br />Habitude at the Locks<br /><br />My personal favorite:<br />Beauty is Pain<br /><br />There is one that is just plain weird:<br />Discover Yourself With Bonnie<br /><br />And there are two that I like because they remind me of a project I once thought of, which was to find businesses that involved an odd combination:<br /><br />Radar Hair and Records<br />A Terrible Beauty Irish Pub (This suggests a lot of alcohol-fueled bad decisions)<br /><br />My two favorite odd business combinations that made me want to search out more are:<br />"Toovey's Meat and Music" in Watertown, MN (a combination butcher shop and musical instruments store, mostly guitars and big amps.<br /><br />"Xxxx's Taxidermy and Cheese," along I-94, the 2nd or 3rd exit going east into Wisconsin from Minnesota. It was the exit I used to take when I was taking classes at U. of Wisconsin-River Falls.Gerald Martinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02377394150728319304noreply@blogger.com
