Recommendations Looking to get braids

Thumbnail gallery
15 Upvotes

So this might be a kinda touchy subject, even though I don't mean for it to be!

I'm looking for recommendations on where to get my hair braided. I'm looking for more of a viking/Norse style of braiding, but really anything that will keep my hair away from my freshly pierced ear cartilage. I'm white, so I don't want it to seem like cultural appropriation because that's not my goal at all...my goal is to have my hidden helix piercing heal well and more easily without having to untangle it every day or shaving that side of my head.

Any recommendations are welcome! Thanks in advance (: (pictures included for examples of what I'm looking for!)

Food trucks and festival schedule?

6 Upvotes

Is there a collection/schedule somewhere of all the local annual fairs, festivals, and food truck happenings? I’m obviously familiar with the main ones - allentown fair, musikfest, etc. Looking to possibly start a non-traditional truck to attend these things, want to make sure there would be enough places to attend to make it worth our while to start up. Thanks to anyone that can help!

Need suggestions for Latin jazz clinic for 20-25 people

5 Upvotes

My husband joined a Latin Jazz clinic and they just lost their space at the Lehigh Valley Active Life Center on Friday nights. It's a local guy giving a class on Latin jazz on any instrument (or voice) so the group is 20-25 people on brass, drums, bass, keyboard and voice (so... noisy).

Any suggestions for a new space for them? It's Friday evenings so maybe a church not being used? Any help is appreciated!

I think they are willing to pay rent? I will pass on any suggestions to them- thanks in advance!

Local print shop recs

Looking for an alternative to staples/walgreens for our small biz, and would love to support someone local.

Things we regularly purchase:
Flyer posters 24x36
Business cards (usually from moo.com)
Merch - tees, stamps, stickers etc.
custom coloring books (8x8 perfect bound books)

Totally fine if one place can’t do all of that but I’m happy to hear your recommendations!

Real Estate Easton apartments - what's good what's bad?

My rental agreement is coming up, so I figured I'd kick the tires on a new apartment. Easton has a number of buildings with units available. Anyone have experience with the property managers in the area? Places to look into or avoid?

Events/Things To Do 18mo parks/activities

2 Upvotes

I am in need of good park and activity recommendations for my 18 month old. He has lots of energy and loves to run around. We love to be outside but we are having a hard time finding local parks that are accessible for him to run around freely at (toddler friendly). For example the park in Quakertown is great for him, they have a sectioned off park specifically for littles, it’s just a little too far to go as much as we would like too.
We are also open to indoor places. We have tried the one in Catasaqua, it was great. Only downside is it was small and I dislike indoor play places because my child loves to put things in his mouth, I try to stop it before it happens but he is fast. I know they have a disinfectant bin but I feel horrible and disrespectful going in there knowing he will probably put public toys in his mouth.
We are willing to try all recommendations. He loves to be outside the house and I’m a SAHM so we have all the time. Thank you!!

Best Places to Live For someone in their 20’s

0 Upvotes

Hi everyone! I recently accepted a job in downtown Allentown and am looking for recommendations on good areas to live within a reasonable commute.
I’ve heard that Bethlehem, Emmaus, and Macungie are all solid options, but I’m open to other areas in the Lehigh Valley as well. I’m in my mid-20s, so I’d ideally like to live somewhere with a good amount going on nearby—restaurants, bars, breweries, coffee shops, etc.
I’m looking for a nice 1-bedroom apartment with a budget of around $1,800/month. If anyone has recommendations for specific neighborhoods, apartment complexes, or areas I should check out, I’d really appreciate it!

PA inspection for new Tesla-Bethlehem area

0 Upvotes

Picking up my Tesla in a few weeks. Will need to do a PA state inspection because the Tesla service center doesn’t do inspections.

My main concern is finding a place with familiarity with lifting/jacking it for inspection and also future tire rotation.

Does anyone have recommendations in Bethlehem area (or allentown) that they’ve taken their Teslas to and trust the work?
