My #1 defense against aging is using sunblock on my face every single day, no exceptions. But Mel is my #2 because she's a genius with color. I'm 56 and have genetically crappy hair. Mel does this thing with three or four colors that makes it look all healthy and glimmery. I actually get compliments from strangers. She's great with my cut, too, and she's sweet, smart, patient and funny. \r

The salon itself is cool--but not intimidating--and the people have always been friendly.
Pros: Mel is great and the atmosphere is comfy even for a non-rock-star like me.
Cons: I can't think of any, except maybe street parking--but there's a garage on the same block.
