Profile

Best known for coiffing celebrities like Ellen Barkin and Sarah Jessica Parker, Normant routinely jets around the globe snipping, blowing and teasing at fashion-magazine photo shoots and advertising campaigns. If you'd like the S.J.P. treatment, you might want to start saving now: A haircut by Normant costs $500. (Cuts from his underlings start at $125.) The meatpacking-district salon occupies a raw industrial space that has been appointed with luxurious flourishes like pony-skin ottomans, a mini koi pond, and a chandelier in the cutting room. Should your hair need coloring from an A-lister, do not fret—Normant has brought along Harry Josh, celebrity colorist. — Aja Mangum

Extra

Sally Hershberger, of the famously studied Meg Ryan "my-hair-just-looks-like-this" sexy shag, is also associated with the brand; she's one of the inventors of Frieda's super-successful product line, which includes everyone's summer staple, Frizz-Ease.

After reading the wonderful reviews for Simone Mangano, I decided to try the miracle of the best colorist in the world first hand. Boy have I lived to regret it!! Instead of my beautiful blone and caramel highlighted hair, I got red hair with brown highlights. When I told Simone the color was too dark for me, she claimed my hair was too damaged to die blond...$300 down the drain! I AM NEVER EVER GOING BACK THERE AGAIN... My advice: STAY AWAY!!

SImone Mangano is the most talented hair colorist! My hair has literally never looked better, whether we decide to change the shade or just maintain it. She is incredibly talented and a doll to visit. I would and have recommend her to anyone.
