Do Dominicans relax their hair? I've only known a Dominican man and he wore his hair super short so I couldn't tell what a woman's hair would look like. Just b/c, I have a close friend from Brooklyn and although she raves about the pricing, she also indicated that they don't relax their hair and she wouldn't let them do that for her hair. She also indicated that they blow dry instead of putting one under the dryer. Are these general practices or do your hairdressers place clients under the dryer? Asking b/c we have a chain of hair salons in Chicago owned and operated by Ethiopians and they blow dry but, usually with a little protest by them, place you under the hairdryer if you basically demand it.
What are the practices? I've also only known Dominicans to be in NY. Does anyone know of any of these shops in Chicago or Southern Cali?

I have had nothing but the best experiences with the Dominican salon in my old neighborhood! Originally, I was going to a place where I could go in at 11:00 on Tuesday morning and not get out of there until 3:30. To boot, I was paying entirely too much there ($145 for a touchup/condition/trim every 7 weeks). Now, I'm in and out in 1 hour for a shampoo and set ($12) and 2 hours for a perm ($40).
The prices don't bother me--it's just the apparent lack of respect for my time, as well as the time of every other client.
