Kolby’s in Bloomfield is where my girl goes. She hasn’t had her hair pressed in years but said they can do it there.

But that’s kinda the reason for it being called abstract art. Pretending? But where did they say it was beautiful?

I go to ivoire hair braiding on MLK Ave for my braids. It’s a African spot and they cheap but I can’t say I seen anyone get a silk press there. I just know they do a good job for the price.

When I hear “receding” I think of a hairline. Sorry if anyone spits their drink out in laughter.

Ah yes the time of the year where Newark is called “right outside of NYC a beautiful park of cherry blossoms” or even worse, called a part of NYC

For thousands of years, every civilization 's visual Arts has improved upon the civilization before it. The trend has always been towards more realism. It was the given from the time man left the caves, to the sumerians, Egypt, India and Far East, culminating with the Greek, Roman & peaking with the US/English Victorian era. Then something happened in the early 20th century, everything stalled and became not so realistic. Art deco sculptures began, then cubism, abstractism the degradation continues to the point where a a crucifix in a toilet bowl full of rotting urine is considered "a monument". The trend now is towards not just unrealistic, but sheer lunacy with random pipes and metals, Justified by the excuse you're supposed to see the "spiritual aspect of it".
Either you refuse to acknowledge what I'm talking about, or you're like one of the four Blind Men. Each one clutching a leg and refusing to acknowledge the opinion of other three and realize the big elephant above them.
I'm not against abstract art. I believe abstract art should be about Concepts, not about individuals. Harriet Tubman was not a bunch of wires with a hollow interior. She deserved a lot better then what looks like a used Christmas lights wire prop up with wires curving (a dress?) down the side. Not a bunch of politicians and social activists and a photo op with the mayor pretending the thing behind them is the most beautiful thing they've ever seen. But hey, you have your tastes I have mine.

It's from 2011 but the graphic design looks extremely 90s.

Peep the North Ironbound district. There is a place called La Nueva Taqoria Morelos that just came under new management and the place is great. Everything is fresh, but I recommend any of their tortas.

See I know a person that live in the ironbound for years who pretty much say the current administration running the city doesn't appreciate the ironbound district except only when it's time for votes. But the same person also tells me in the 30 years they've lived in this area the iron bound takes care of itself

If you're willing to go to Jersey City, Shardollz is the place. They understand how to treat natural hair how it should, and it has great atmosphere.
