Curly and wavy hair have a place to receive expert TLC on Garden Street. Loyal to Aveda and DevaCurl hair products, Salon 62 works with hair of all lengths and textures, while specializing in curly hair cutting, care, and education. Stylists, also called “curly hair specialists,” don’t just cater to hair but also want to hear their clients’ hair story before delivering the mane of their dreams. Stylists then cut hair dry, followed by cleansing, conditioning, and styling. Throughout the process, they teach clients how to take care of their refreshed hair so that they can maintain health and replicate results at home. Salon 62 also helps cancer survivors manage newfound curly hair after chemotherapy.

If there was a vote for best planet, wouldn’t Earth win? When it comes down to protecting her, you all gave top prize to the Environmental Center of San Luis Obispo (EcoSlo). The organization was founded more than five decades ago when four pollution incidents hurt San Luis Obispo Creek, prompting students and biologists to step up in the name of Earth. Since then, EcoSlo has provided opportunities for the community to make a difference, like volunteering for coastal cleanups, tree plantings, and caring for county parks. If you feel climate anxiety bubbling up, check out your options at EcoSlo.
