On Avenue A, Piggies in, Spin Hair Salon out
[From Sunday, in case you were wondering about the lack of snow]
As you probably know, Brooklyn Piggies, the hand-rolled pigs-in-a-blanket shop, opened last Thursday at 195 Avenue A. At the same time, though, Spin Hair Salon has left the space next door…
