• For Openers Haircuts For A Cause T rying to think of a way to help victims of the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks on America, Maria Carinci suggested to fellow hair stylists at Hair Forte Salon that they hold a cut-a-thon. "We're like everyone else who really wants to make a difference," she says. "We want those who were affected straight-on to see the American people are really helping out." Seven of the West Bloomfield shop's styl- ists, including owner Andrea Stanberger, decided to make a donation of time and proceeds from haircuts and styles given from noon to 4 p.m., Sunday, Oct. 14, at Hair Forte Salon, 7408 Haggerty Road. The group then checked the Internet and decided to make the contribution to the New York Police, Fire Widows and Children's Benefit Fund. "We found they SHELL' LIEBMAN looked like they needed more help than some of the other groups," Carinci says.
