We don’t know if it’s the Parisian decor (like the stand of frilly polka-dot umbrellas); the warmth of mom and daughter owners Marsha and Tammy Coleman when they offer you a beverage (mimosa, please); or the fact that we walked away with a head full of soft, sex-kitten curls, but we adore this new blowout and makeup salon. You can’t get highlights or a bang trim, but you can get a sophisticated chignon and a $40 makeover customized to your liking. Add-ons include scalp massages, hair masques, faux lashes, and services for the under-10 set should you take along your little ones. Don’t miss the armoire of products, including La Bichette’s own line of shampoo, conditioner, and strengthening serum, all of which come prettily packaged in recyclable (and refillable) aluminum containers with pumps.
