cuter than it look? beauty is in the eye of the beholder i guess! the yorkshire terrier has the same ph as human hair, so i would think it would be the ideal dog for a person with allergies (and much cuter than the hairless one).
i thought there was already a pic of obama with a white curly dog? possibly a poodle mix? poodles are also good for peeps with allergies. they shed very little.

Generally, with allergies, it’s not the hair that is the problem. It’s the dander from the skin, and also the proteins in the saliva (and I think also the urine).
I don’t believe there is a truly hypoallergenic dog, however a breed that sheds less probably also leaves less dander around. I wouldn’t sell a puppy to a family with an allergic child.
