Hello Hopetoun,
The results of my research for hip beauty salons are as follows:
======
London
======
Martyn Maxey Hairdressing
?Martyn Maxey at Martyn Maxey Hairdressing, 18 Grosvenor Street,
London (020 7629 6161). Adored by the fashionable Mayfair set, Martyn
Maxey's namesake salon is a little oasis of calm in the heart of
London. Haircuts by the maestro himself are much coveted, and with
good reason: after just an hour in Martyn's hands you'll emerge
looking cover-girl fabulous.?
Glamour Magazine

?This Mayfair salon has a reputation as one of the leading hair and
beauty salons in the UK and counts numerous models and actors among
its clients.?

Taylor Taylor
Antony at Taylor Taylor, 12 Cheshire Street, London E2 6EH (020 7033 0330)
?When the man trimming your tresses was trusted by Marc Jacobs to
style the models at his latest New York fashion show you know you're
in good hands. But it's not just Antony that makes it worth tripping
out to east London to Taylor Taylor: the home-away-from-home
atmosphere (you'll be presented with a cocktail and chocolates before
you've even taken your coat off), the cool tunes and cosy leather
sofas makes this the funkiest salon we've ever had the pleasure to
visit.?

By CHARLOTTE RUDGE
Published: October 22, 2006
?Miraculously Affordable Superstars Alan Tosler at Tosler Davis, 89
Fifth Avenue, New York, N.Y. 10003; (212)229-0100; haircut, $125.
Tosler is an affable Briton whose soothing 10th-floor salon is where
edgier artist-socialites like Jessica Craig-Martin, Rachel Feinstein
and Cecily Brown go for sophisticated, downtown-looking cuts.?
?Jimmy Paul at Bumble and Bumble Downtown, 415 West 13th Street, New
York, N.Y. 10014; (212)521-6500; haircut, $250. O.K., $250 for a
haircut is still a lot of money, but it?s a bargain considering that
Paul, perhaps the most in-demand editorial stylist in America, has
worked on Paris Vogue?s editor, Carine Roitfeld, and Uma Thurman,
among others. Despite his high-fashion pedigree, his haircut vibe is
low-key, sultry and effortless.?
Sally Hershberger Downtown
?Best Rocker Cut Sally Hershberger at Sally Hershberger Downtown, 425
West 14th Street, New York, N.Y. 10014; (212)206-8700; haircut, $800.
The woman who brought the $600 (now $800) haircut to Manhattan is an
intimidating arbiter of cool, with a fanatical fan base and a waiting
list of a year. Though famous for Meg Ryan?s career-making shag,
Hershberger is equally skilled at giving long-haired clients like
Michelle Pfeiffer and Michelle Williams a signature dose of sexy
cool.?
?Marie Robinson at Sally Hershberger Downtown, 425 West 14th Street,
New York, N.Y. 10014; (212)206-8700; highlights, $275 and up. Robinson
has a clientele that reads like a Top 5 list for iconic towheads:
Nicole Kidman (ethereal blonde), Carolyn Murphy (supermodel blonde),
Heather Graham (sexy blonde), Claire Danes (serious blonde) and Patti
Hansen (70?s bombshell blonde).?
John Barrett Salon at Bergdorf Goodman
?Best Blonde Louise Galvin at John Barrett Salon at Bergdorf Goodman,
754 Fifth Avenue, New York, N.Y. 10019; (212)872-2700; highlights,
$525. The devastatingly glamorous Galvin flies in monthly from London
to painstakingly paint that perfect I-spent-a-week-at-the-beach tangle
of honey, copper and pale-gold blonde.?
?Best Sexy Movie-Star Cut Serge Normant at Serge Normant at John
Frieda, 797 Madison Avenue, New York, N.Y. 10021; (212)879-1000;
haircut, $500. Trust Julia Roberts: she?s Normant?s biggest, most
outspoken fan. This sexy Frenchman opened his own salon in 2004, where
he gives luxuriously sensual cuts.?
?Best Transformative Cut Oscar Blandi at Oscar Blandi Salon, 746
Madison Avenue, New York, N.Y. 10021; (212)988-9404;
www.oscarblandi.com; haircut, $500. Blandi may go down in history as
the guy who transformed the dowdy, punky Nicole Richie into the
elegant, blond-bobbed Nicole Richie. His talent lies in thinking big
picture: if you?re in a rut, he?s the guy.?
?Permanent Extensions Ellin Lavar, 134 West 72nd Street, New York,
N.Y. 10023; (212)724-4492; www.lavarhair designs.com; invisible
braids, $650. LaVar has been doing extensions since the 70?s, when she
developed her now-signature invisible braid technique, which eschews
keratin-glue bonding in favor of less damaging tiny braids and thread.
She?s beefed up Julia Roberts?s hair, did Mary J. Blige?s waist-length
locks and counts Oprah, Iman, Bono and Donatella as clients?
?Best Transformative Hair Color Rita Hazan at Rita Hazan Salon, 720
Fifth Avenue, New York, N.Y. 10019; (212)734-4757;
www.ritahazansalon.com; highlights, $500. File it under: Expensive,
Worth It. Single process color starts at $200, but if you want to do a
dramatic color change, the fast-working, no-nonsense Hazan is the one.
She has masterminded young Hollywood?s eternally shifting spectrum of
career-defining hair color, with clients including Eva Longoria,
Jennifer Lopez and those favorite guilty pleasures, the Simpson
sisters (who despite their personae boast some serious hair).?
Los Angeles
?Hair Doctor (Cut) Jamal Hammadi, Los Angeles, Calif.; (323)254-7788;
www.hamadibeauty.com; haircut, $400. Hammadi is a genius at fixing
fried, badly cut hair into red-carpet-worthy shape in no time with
intensive, customized conditioning treatments and perfect face-framing
cuts. (He?s the reason Drew Barrymore?s hair looks
touched-by-the-hand-of-God healthy.) And Hammadi prefers to go
straight to your home.?
?Art Luna at Art Luna Salon, 2116 Main Street, Santa Monica, Calif.
90405; (310)450-7168; highlights, $200 and up. Luna?s shimmery,
otherworldly hair color has been the gold standard for clients like
Reese Witherspoon and Kirsten Dunst. He splits his time between
editorial work (reportedly getting $5,000 a day) and snipping
civilians in the airy outdoor area of his salon ? the better to see if
the shade is right.?
