Curls Are Fun- Antonio Berducci

Midtown’s 7th-floor walk-ups have a way of hiding the best spots until you stumble past the elevator bank. Curls Are Fun- Antonio Berducci sits at 269 W 39th St, a hair salon that specializes in textures most places still treat like an afterthought. The address puts it just far enough from Times Square’s foot traffic to feel like a neighborhood secret, yet close enough that a quick trim won’t eat your whole lunch hour. If you’ve ever left a salon with your curls fighting the cut instead of flattering it, this is the kind of place that might change your mind—think precision shaping, color that actually clings to coils, and treatments that don’t turn your strands into straw by day three. Salons like this one are why the city’s curl community keeps growing; they’re where diffusers aren’t an afterthought and stylists actually know the difference between a twist-out and a wash-and-go. You can book everything from a quick trim to a full balayage session, and the phone rings at (917) 932-4459 if you’d rather skip the online form. For directions, pull up the map and let your GPS handle the rest.
