I would like to treat my teenage daughter to A great haircut in a salon that specializes in curly hair. Above are 3 salons that people suggested. Wondering if anybody can tell me about their personal experiences or if you have any other good ideas.

Don't use Deva Curl products. It makes the hair fall out. They have lawsuits against them.

I suggest the curly girl method.
Maybe look for a private salon/hair stylist - not from a big cooperation like these that push their own products at you. A good curly hair stylist should have a good instagram showing tons of pictures.
I really suggest someone who does the curly girl method. Deva Curl helped create the Curly Girl method but I go with SaddleBrown - don't go to them directly right now as their products recently were made faulty and they have many lawsuits against them.

Awesome Mom! I too have curly kids. FOUR daughters with curls. I started at the website Naturally Curly which outlines it all for you: which salon for which hair, what type of curl, how to care for your hair, which hairdressers work for curls in your area, etc. I bought the "Curly Girl Handbook" by Lorainne Massey too.
My thick- haired, more "ethnic haired" relatives went to Ouidad: their method of "carving" was too intense for my fine haired oldest daughter, so we went to Devachan for her bat mitzvah and continued there with her sisters. Pros: Pro-curl atmosphere, super amazing haircuts and great education for how to care for their hair, plus hair cut needed only every 6 months if you learn how to wash and care for your hair well. Downside: travel to salon, snooty atmosphere, plus HUGELY expensive.
Our stylist left Devachan to open her own salon, but Devachan told us she was at an Ashram in India and set us up with a different stylist. We found her again a year later (yay internet!) and she is magical and an artiste but even MORE expensive than Devachan and I couldn't really justify the crazy prices even it was just every 6 months.
With the the Naturally Curly website and message forum, I found a stylist who cuts curly hair in my area that got great reviews, cost about 25% per haircut of the artiste. I have since learned she is an exclusively curly cut salon and the well kept secret of the frum curly girls in my area. Not so patient with the education, but now we have older sisters in the mix to help out with caring for their hair.
Now my girls are complimented for their hair, which makes them feel great and motivates them to keep it up. Its a challenge to love your curly hair in a traditional bais Yaakov community, as for some reason there remains a "wild unruly vibe" to this type of hair, but not for me. Bernadette Peters, Andie McDowell all the way!
