Hairdresser in San Telmo

[Moxon]

Is there a decent hairdresser acquainted with modern western hairstyles (ie a foreigner from overseas or clued up local) in San Telmo or nearby?

I had to live with a hair nightmare for weeks after my last visit to a barber here.

Any suggestions will be much appreciated

I don't know of one in S. Telmo, but "Orange", on Echeverría in Belgrano, turns out very goodlooking (if expensive) cuts. But, then, I'm a man and so know what appeals to me better than I know what's the latest style.

Hey, I need a hair stylist too, so I tried to find Orange by walking up and down Echeverria, but I was unable to find it. Could you tell me what cross street it's at? I also wasn't able to find it via google. Thanks,Ken

If I remember correctly, it's on the eastern side of Echeverría, between Moldes and Amenábar; but I could be off by a block or two. Just look for well-coiffed women coming out!

There's a decent one in Las Heras / Pueyrredón as well. Cuts are 35 pesos.

I've been able to speak with my family in Bs.As. "Orange" is at Echeverría 2640; its proprietor is Carlos Olivares, who is excellent; cuts are around fifty or sixty pesos.

By complete coincidence, I got my hair cut at Orange today. Once you told me the two streets it was easy to find. I got a good haircut! Thanks,Ken

You're welcome! I'll probably go there myself when next I'm in town.
(Bye the bye, what's the cost of a man's haircut?)

I think it was a little less than 50 pesos...not exactly sure though. Ken

Thanks, Ken; that's what I'll plan on.
