Midtown Mavens: Get Thee To Angelo David Salon

Gals, if you work in Midtown Manhattan (on the east side) and you're in need of a Shellac manicure with resident manicurist Mariana (a DOLL) or blow-out (ask for Megan), make an appointment at Angelo David Salon at 48 East 43rd street.  This utterly convenient Grand Central adjacent/centrally located beauty enclave boasts private beauty rooms, Redken and Pureology products, a super-friendly staff and owner Angelo's own private label tools and products. The latter are especially fantastic. To find out my faves, read on...



Angelo David Pocket-sized Boar Bristle Brush ($35) My best tip is to ALWAYS brush out your hair thoroughly (which I always pronounce the way Julianne Moore did in The Big Lebowski--"thorUHly") before you wash it to distribute your natural oils from your scalp down to the ends, where your strands desperately need hydration.


Angelo David Large Wide-toothed Comb ($14) This is a savoir for anyone with coarse, curly or totally tangled hair. I always start my at-home styling with a brisk comb-through with a wide-toothed comb like this one before applying volumizing spray at my roots and a styling oil at the ends. Then, I give my hair another once-over with the comb to evenly distribute product. This comb is perfectly sized and priced. 

Both are available at angelodavid.com. Call 212-883-6620 to make an appointment.
