I was using this site a few days ago, trying to find a hairdressers, who would cut my hair in preparation for next week’s grad ball without charging a fortune, when it occurred to me that I really should write a review for ciao on it, since it is an exceptionally useful site, with a lot more to it than you might at first think.
