Best of Lawrence 2011 seeks haircut, new wardrobe

We’re almost ready to open voting on Best of Lawrence for the first time in five years. On Jan. 24 you will be able to vote at Lawrence.com on your Lawrence favorites for 25 categories.

We’ve already previewed candidates for best date, wifi hotspot and bar. You looked at the town’s best bookstore and live music venue candidates. Best coffee, burger and place to dance inspired a spirited debate. Chili-heads and Taco Tuesday regulars got a chance to debate the town’s best spots for Latin American and Middle Eastern foods. And recently we looked at candidates for pizza, Italian food,Asian cuisine and breakfast.

If you haven’t checked out and weighed in on any of these categories, there’s still time. The purpose of these posts is to not only stir up some early banter — which, of course, is fun — but to also give the community a chance to let us know if we’ve missed any candidates for each category.

Today we take a break from local eats and look at candidates for the best place to get a hair cut and best clothing store in town. As always, hit us up in the comment section below or write us on Facebook or Twitter. We look forward to hearing from you and can’t wait for Jan. 24.
