When: Thursday, November 17, 6-9 p.m.
Where: Press: Works On Paper, 3492 22nd Street (between Dolores and Guerrero streets); 415-913-7156.
Mira Mira Hair Braiding Party
Obviously, we've got a little something for hair braiding. And whether you like them thick or thin, pinned up or hanging loose, tonight's Ladies Night at Mira Mira will delight everyone, thanks to local blogger Jennie Lodge, who will be on hand teaching attendees how to twist their locks in every which way. We suggest pairing your newly styled hair with a design from the shop, which will all be 20% off all night long.
When: Thursday, November 17, 6-9 p.m.
Where: Mira Mira, 3292 22nd Street (at Valencia Street); 415-648-6513.
Maas & Stacks OK Pop-Up Shop
The snazziest addition to the Castro, this indie menswear shop is teaming up with the L.A.-based home furnishing shop OK, which will be popping up with an assortment of design-influenced merchandise (think vintage books and home décor!) at tonight’s holiday-themed event. Cute boys, we're assuming, will also be a-plenty.

Where: MAAS & Stacks, 2128 Market Street (at Church Street); 415-678- 5629.
