Editorial Review for Christo Fifth Avenue – by Karen Hudes
The Scene
Rich, polished wood floors, mahogany-framed mirrors and a touch of chinoiserie accent this stately midtown salon, owned by the innovative, Paris-trained Christo. After you fill out a questionnaire, your perceptive stylist will spend a generous amount of time analyzing your hair, finding out your wishes and explaining his or her vision for your best cut. Convertible seating at the shampoo station allows you to put your feet up and relax.
The Services
Some salons automatically give curly customers a straight blowout, but here the staff honors the beauty of the curl through cuts that work organically with the hair's tendencies. The styles flatter the eyes and allow clients the freedom to air-dry at home. Expect smart highlight suggestions and expert advice on styling techniques--such as flipping upside-down and using a diffuser--to amp up your cut. The result is lively curls in tune with your personality, and a natural shape to relish.

I have been searching for someone to take care of my unruly curls for years! I've literally tried dozens of stylists...I've even been to "other" curly haired specialists...no one even came close to how fabulous Tameeka is! She is not only a wonderful person who makes you feel so comfortable in her chair, but she is fantastic when it comes to curls! She listens to my wishes, I don't like a lot cut off, and she respects that! I don't get the dreadful pyramid when my hair grows out...I just found her last year...so I haven't been anywhere else since...and I am very happy! If you are looking for someone to take great care of your curls, go see Tameeka...and it's a beautiful, friendly salon!!!!!

I have struggled with my hair my entire life, my curls are what makes me unique but I had the toughest time finding anyone who could help me properly care and style my hair. Being bi-racial, I have tried it all. Then I found TAMEEKA - and I would follow her to the ends of the earth. Tameeka is the best stylist I have ever had, hands down. She tells me the right products to use - not pushing them on me- and talks through what I want and what would be the best cut for me. I truly would highly recommend Tameeka to anyone....and I have! People have stopped me on the street and asked me where I get my hair done and I point them strait to Tameeka. She even helped one of my best friends fix a color disaster right before her wedding. (My friend is white and has extremely long curly blond/brown hair) I have been going over over 4 years to her and I will continue to stay faithful. You must make an appointment with her, you will be really happy you did. TAMEEKA IS THE BEST CURLY HAIR STYLIST!
Pros: Tameeka and the enitre staff. Salon is clean, friendly and has a great receptionist!
Cons: none
