Readers' Choice: Where's Your Favorite Hair Salon?

Strategic snips, perfect color and a place to, well, let your hair down. Tell us what makes your Clark or Garwood salon a safe haven for your head.

"It's only hair, it'll grow back." You can use that line on the adventurous 14-year-old who tried an asymetrical magenta design just to assert their individualism. But you're a grown-up and have spent a great deal of time and money trying to find the perfect stylist, the person who knows when you're ready to grow it out, when you're ready to restore the proper coloring — or when it's time to try something just a little different.   So, as Patch continues to shine a light on your favorite places in Clark and Garwood, let us know who you trust with your hair. It's a special bond that you and that specialist have, so vote for your favorite salon and post a comment about the person with the perfect pair of scissors. As always, we post the …

Readers' Choice: Where is Your Favorite Garden Center?

Where do you go in Clark and Garwood for flowers, grass seed, mulch, tomato plants or anything else that makes your garden — and grass — grow.

The mild winter and warm spring have given all of us a great headstart on yardwork (whether we wanted it or not). As you wandered around the yard, though, you undoubtedly found remnants of Hurricane Irene and our freak October snowstorm. That storm damage makes the to-do list a little longer, but if you've got a go-to garden center full of helpful lawn-care experts and foliage afficianados, then you're halfway to a beautiful lawn.   So, as we continue the Patch Readers' Choice series, let us know where you go for expert advice, great products and the tools you need to make your property the best on the block. Cast your votes by 9 a.m. Friday morning, post a comment, let us know why your loyalty keeps "growing" for your favorite place.
