    My wedding is in Brooklyn in about 3 weeks and I don't have a hair stylist yet.  I can't afford to pay $350 for day of plus $175 for a trial, which is the price I've been quoted by many salons.  Any recommendations??

    My awesome stylist just moved from Chicago to NY (*sob*). I sent her your link and asked if she would be interested. Her name is Fatima Rantissi and she is crazy good!

    Sissi Chan and Fresh Face Forward are both reasonable, and have had great reviews! Erica Hunt is another one. Good luck!

    I'm using a woman named Joanne who does pinup hair and makeup, but has done quite a lot of wedding work too...she quoted me i think 200 dollars for hair and makeup the day of, plus 50 dollars for the trial...Let me know if you want her contact information.

    I don't know much about NYC, since I'm in Texas, but I found my wedding hair stylist on craigslist. Have you tried there? I got several responses to my inquiries, could browse photos/websites and ultimately was very pleased with what I found. Good luck.

    Her full name is Joanne Van Vranken, and I'm not sure if she's free or not, but you can tell her that Nicole gave you her email address -- rocketjnycb@hotmail.com

    Ditto, if you are pressed and the recs you got don't pan out, check out CL.  I have found a few there that gave me pretty reasonable quotes.  And with the economy, some money is better than no money, so you can totally negotiate with a few - just be firm and you'll see how many will be willing to take you at your rate.
