Fair warning about cat allergies, though (and this is for Chat Noir too)... A lot of people with allergies are allergic to the dander, not the hair itself, so there is the possibility that they could still be allergic to a hairless cat. My boyfriend's allergies act up from time to time.
HOWEVER:
Since its hairless, there's no shedding, so no dander sticking to hair hanging around your house. And, since it will get weekly baths, the dander won't have a chance to build up as much.
Another breed to look into is the Siberian:

Though I haven't tested the theory personally, they are said to be hypo-allergenic.
