Yeah, there's a lot going on @ Balance, which is a hair salon par excellance, a cool vintage clothing boutique and a kickin' performance space/art gallery. As a former JC resident, Carla & Co. make it so worthwhile--both the scene there and the cuts/color--that I come in from Brooklyn to get my hair did
Paul, the other stylist is good for men as well as women. I think he specializes in both men and long hair for women and the chicks I see getting out of his chair always look fab!
The younger crew who staff the place are great fun and have a fashion sense and style that just won't quit. Leah, the resident expert colorist, in particular has a good nose for what works for each individual.
All in all Balance is a great place to get a great haircut at a good and reasonable price...and have a glass of wine or cup of coffe in the process. Hence the name Balance.
