 It's time to rethink that played-out hairstyle you've been working for the past two years. So when you're ready to make the leap to a new look, visit Pharo's Hair Oasis and ask for Fredis (pronounced "Freddy") Rodriguez. Don't be taken aback by the faux Egyptian motif and the many photos of the object of Pharo's near-unhealthy obsession, Cher. Rodriguez will calm you with his gentle manner and get to work on fixing your lid once you've come to an agreement on how to style it. He has been making questionable-looking people look good for 12 years -- five of them at Pharo's -- by cutting, coloring and highlighting clients into submission. He loves what he does, and it shows in his work.
