I have been extremely happy with my experience here. It is well run as everyone is very polite and professional. My color, cut and blow out is always phenomenal. Anthony also took a lot of time to show me how to style my hair and it's never looked so good! I also like it that I don't have a long wait and get a cappuccino while I wait for my color to finish. The vibe is modern, bright and clean. read more

$65 for a blowout where my hair is already greasy the next day - that's what you'll get here

I see Dave for color and Andy for my haircuts. Both are outstanding, and I highly recommend.

Finding the right hair salon is no easy task, but recently I discovered ADF Salon in Plainview. I love the salon, the new space is absolutely beautiful! It is a lovely experience. My colorist, Danielle, and my stylist, Kendall are both professional and super easy to work with. They are always attentive to my hair needs and friendly too. They make the entire process a pleasant one. I cannot say enough wonderful things about the front desk girl, Lauren. She is always pleasant when I phone to make an appointment, as well as attentive and verynsweet in person upon arrival. The Salon Manager, Susan, is also a wonderful pleasant lady. She is visible and happy to check on the clients. Thank you ADF! xo read more

Anthony Defranco Salon - Color: Danielle McNerney Cut: Kendall Williams - Hair Salons Near Me - Plainview, New York

Had a great experience at this salon! Beautiful little area in Plainview. Got a blow out with Anthony, the owner, to get a feel for the salon! I like the vibe at this salon and that the customers were being acknowledged. Hair came out great and everyone was very nice and complimentary. Will be going back to try color & cut. Pricing is fair and reviews seem accurate! read more

Always amazing. Hair washer massages to colorist on point to hair cutters perfect precision. I have been going to defranco for years. Never disappointed. read more

This new place is so beautiful and relaxing it was a nice respite from my busy day. I had my hair colored by Danielle, I was looking for a small change to update my look and she did a really great job. All my friends noticed, even my husband who usually has to be prompted with "How's my hair look", noticed when I walked in the door! I had a blow out with Kendall and my hair stayed for days, I had my nails done too, just a regular mani, and it lasted into the following week. Nice experience, will get my hair cut next time. I like the one stop shopping, especially for a night on the town, they had me looking fabulous! read more

Had my cut with Anthony for the first time even though I've been coming for years. He is surprisingly the nicest, sweetest and professional person. So down to earth. His suggestions led to an awesome cut and styling. Pei colored my color to perfection. 10/10. read more

On a recent trip to New York I was looking for someone to do a blowout on my hair, I was lucky enough to come across a brand new salon in Plainview. I was fortunate enough to walk in and, as luck would have it, the owner, Anthony was available to do my hair. We had great conversation while he was doing my hair. My hair turned out great, not everyone can do my hair, it is frizzy and thick, but Anthony got it right! I will be stopping back by on my future trips to NY and recommending it to my family and friends that live there!! read more

Have my hair colored by pei. She's fabulous. Moved to area and was looking for a great colorist. Found one in pei. Highly recommend. And nice and always on time as well. read more

On Thursday-- I left the salon feeling like royalty -- again. Actually I feel like that each week when I walk in and out. Whether it's Cindy who highlights my hair to give it a golden hue, Victoria who gives me the best blow out to last the week or Anthony himself, who like a magician takes the frizz out of my hair but not the curl with his keratin and flat iron magic wand. This place is my happy place-- make it yours, too! Everyone is amazing and they make you look and feel the same way, too! read more

Amazing in every way. Outstanding customer service. Talented Hair stylists. Cleanliness. We were looking for a new salon to meet my very high expectations and Anthony De Franco exceeded in every way. The staff that I have had the pleasure to work with: Susan (manager), Victoria (stylist), Pei (colorist) and Anthony (owner) have been nothing less than amazing. They are all so extremely personable and take the time to understand what you need and will go above and beyond to ensure their clients leave happy. We are happy to say we have found our new "home" salon. On a more detailed note, I needed to book a very last minute haircut on behalf of someone, and they were able to pull some strings so they could take her the same day. Anthony worked his magic and her hair turned out so beautiful and elegant. Thank you! read more

Went in for a haircut, I'm satisfied with how stylist cut my hair without much input from me.

This salon is the only spot I'll go on Long Island -- I have tried others (won't name-drop but one was overpriced and ruined my hair twice, the other was so poorly maintained inside & my stylist had a wild unkempt frizz of neon hair so there was just no way I was letting her touch my hair. Sorry) and can confirm that this is the best salon in the area for several reasons: 1. Extremely clean and gorgeous inside, so relaxing 2. Careful, communicative and patient stylists/colorists/etc who take their time with you & deliver results 3. Owner who cares 4. Not overpriced They also have two locations which is nice. I get my hair cut by Georgia, she's super sweet and always does a good job. My color from Pei-- the first time I came in, she spent like half an hour with me for a consultation just to make sure we were on the same page and even suggested we wait a bit and try something a little less risky before we execute on what I wanted... honestly this is the type of person you want doing your hair unlike most other salons in this area who want to fry your hair and take your money as soon as they can. The owner, Anthony defranco, has been walking around the store checking on guests and monitoring the staff both times I've been there recently, and I think this says a lot about the quality of the place. Prices are definitely fair compared to all the other salons in the area who charge the same amount and sometime a little more for wayyyyy lower quality service/experience/results. Seems like from these reviews, guests have had not as great an experience with the nail salon portion of this place, but for haircut/color I've gotta give it 5 stars for sure. I'm a really picky person and for me to find a salon I'm comfortable with and feel like I'm getting value for is not common... Anthony DeFranco salon is it read more

I was referred by my friend and I am so glad! Pei & Victoria did a great job and everyone there was very very nice. This will be my salon from now on read more

A friend of mine recently said my hair has never looked better, and I owe it all to the amazing cut, style and color from this salon. Anthony is a true artisan, and creates styles that are effortless. read more

I was looking for a new haircutter that had vision and talent and found both with Anthony DeFranco - he gave me a haircut that looked great and was easy to manage. The salon was beautiful and everyone there is very nice. Can't wait to go back for my hair color appointment. read more

WORST EXPERIENCE EVER! I came to Anthony de Franco Salon in plainview looking for a luxury experience & service and ended up getting a true HAIR HORROR STORY! I asked the stylist for a Sophia Richie inspired look ( photos will be shown below) and we both agreed to add a rooted look and lowlights and a glaze to create this look. I came in as a double process blonde (that had already grown out) because I wanted more of a balayage look. Instead of a beautiful honey blonde I ended up having red/purple roots , black lowlights, and silver blonde! I expressed how upset I was and told the stylist that I'm too cool toned and it did not look like the photos at all! She did try to fix it by clarifying my hair 4 times at the shampoo bowl. And had her assistant reapply the glaze for 20 mins. Once I was done my hair ended up being completely BROWN!! I cried at the shampoo bowl! I ran to the front desk asked if there was anyway I did not have to pay for the color service because I was unhappy and my hair is brown no longer blonde , and said she will be right with you so the stylist knows you're unhappy . I told the front desk that the stylist had already attempted to fix my hair, and that I am still unhappy and she continued to say that she cannot do anything but clarify it in order to help remove the low lights and the tone of the hair. I felt so pressured to pay for my service that I was not happy about and after two hours later I called the front desk, explaining how unhappy I am, and how I was devastated and cried at the shampoo bowl and she said that the owner is the only one that can allow me to have a full refund back, she said once he's in the salon again, she will expressed how my service and experience was not good and he will determine whether if I get a refund or not. The following day I got a phone call from the salon and I was told I will NOT get a REFUND but I am allowed to have a Complimentary BLOWDRY if I wanted to. ARE YOU KIDDING ME!?? I spent almost $300 on my hair that I was not happy about because I felt pressure to pay for service that I did not want and I felt embarrassed that I had to walk out with my hair like this and you can only give me a complementary blow dry? I think that's unacceptable. I I asked if I can speak to the owner directly since he is there about my experience she said HE'S too BUSY taking clients right now he will get to you once he is free. I've waited over a week for this man to call me back, and at least acknowledge the fact that I was upset about the service experience. This is completely unprofessional, coming from the owner himself, not wanting to one refund me back, nor acknowledge the fact that a client, a new client was unhappy about a service, and all they can offer me as a BLOWDRRY service I'm writing this review because I want everyone to know that this Salon does NOT care about their GUEST. They just care about a QUICK BUCK and they will do everything they can to ignore the fact that someone made a mistake and they DON'T want to REFUND you for a terrible service. If I could leave a ZERO STAR REVIEW I WOULD! photos of my inspiration and my entire experience is captured below and I am still waiting on the owner to speak to me. If I were you save your money and go somewhere else! Do you re-search on Instagram and I wish you the best . read more

I was happy they took me in as a walk in when I sat down with Francine, I was shocked to see her as this was the reason I left my last nail salon in wantagh (Polish) and to see her there I decided to give her a second chance. Boy do I regret it! One of the worst experiences with her just rude disrespectful attitude! I had her stop midway and walked out as I strongly think she is bi-polar because of her hot/cold attitude all within the first 15 minutes of the manicure! NEVER AGAIN! Some people shouldn't do nails!! read more

I just returned from my first and last time visiting this salon. I booked a manicure online, but needed gel polish soaked off before getting regular polish on. There was nowhere to indicate I needed regular polish plus a soak off on the website. When I explained this, they stated I'd have to pay extra for the soak off. I said they should make it an option to select on the website so I knew going in. Francine replied, "well, you're just a random person off the street so of course we'd charge for that, we have to make money." I immediately felt uncomfortable. Throughout the manicure, the front desk people made me feel uncomfortable for messing up the nail tech's schedule when there was nowhere online to indicate that I needed a soak off! Anything but relaxing. Then, Francine attempted to make small talk by asking where I work, to which she said "wow that area is really sketchy." I felt that was unnecessarily rude from someone I first met. From start to finish this was a horrible experience with horrible customer service. Go somewhere else! read more

On my first visit for a haircut with Anthony, I was impressed immediately. He evaluated my hair and asked what style I wanted. He did a great job cutting my hair and now my wavy hair looks terrific. So happy that I can walk there in 5 minutes read more

Was spontaneously looking to chop off my hair for donation and there was an opening with Kendal while I was in town. She was very kind to take a few minutes before the haircut to talk about length and potential style of the cut. I appreciated her taking her time, having good conversation and making sure we were both happy with the final product. Thank you Kendal! read more

Charles is a Demi god with color! A warm greeting when you walk in, contemporary vibe and attention to service - Anthony DeFranco embodies a hair spa experience. read more

Everyone who works here is incredibly talented and are a pleasure to work with. I love the convenience of their online scheduling and that they're a full service salon. read more

First salon on LI where I walked out without having any hair dye in or behind my ears, around my neck or in my hair. The cut I got still looked good even after I washed it and blew dry it myself. Will definitely be returning. read more

Awesome place! Eleni is great! She is very knowledgeable of products too! Highly recommend this salon

I wish I could give more stars! I heard so many great reviews from friends, I had to go myself. First off , I'm extremely picky with my hair and it's really difficult to cut and style. I went to Flor for my haircut and I'm obsessed !! I have never felt so good walking out of a salon before. She took her time with me and was very friendly. My haircut and styling was amazing , I even booked future appointments . The owner of the salon had clients as well , but took the time to welcome me , and I appreciate that , because it made me feel special. The level of professionalism was superb and the energy was very positive. Lets not forget the ambiance , it was exquisite. Thank you Flor for giving me such a beautiful haircut read more

See all

I came in for a haircut with Georgia and I was very disappointed. I told her I did not want to cut my hair short and wanted more volume. I took my glasses off and the next thing I knew she had cut my hair into a bob with layers. It was uneven and so short. She clearly did not do as I asked and did what she wanted. The salon is very nice though.. but I was extremely disappointed with my haircut. read more

First I was in Florida for three months and then I came home for Covid for another year. During that time I went from one bad haircut to the next. For safety I was having stylists come to my house. I have difficult hair if it's not cut right. By the time I came to Anthony there was a disaster on my head! One haircut from him and my hair has returned to normal. The entire experience was delightful. The staff was friendly the place is gorgeous and luxurious. Anthony takes the time to cut that is needed. Unlike other salons where you have to wait he ran on time. The haircut might be considered pricey but I have to say worth every penny (or dollar)! read more

On a Very busy Saturday I just walked in because I needed a blow dry - last minute. They did everything possible to accommodate me. I really appreciate it. The girl (forgot her name) who is training there, very sweet and did an excellent job. I'm thankful. read more

I have now received haircuts from 2 different stylists at the Plainview location, and have been disappointed on both occasions. I'm on a budget and splurged for $74.00 to hopefully have great cuts. Unfortunately, I would have done better myself for free. The lady who first cut it last winter, left a gap at the back of my stacked bob cut. I wanted to give them another try because of all the good reviews, but this was a big mistake. I was there again in June and brought pictures of the short bob styles that I wanted. The stylist was very rushed and kept telling me that she wouldn't cut the back any shorter, I should let the front grow in and "what's with the bangs". She had a mother and daughter sitting behind my chair impatiently waiting for their services. The appointments were either behind or double booked, so my cut was rushed. Stylist was nasty and I would never again go back to this salon. Sue read more

I would highly recommend this salon for anyone who is nervous about trying to find a new Haircutter. My search ended here. They are all amazing. Anthony DeFranco is brilliant and gave me the best styled haircut ever. All of the stylists are terrific. I wish every place I went , were as warm and welcoming as this salon. Very talented group . I hope they remain here for a very long time. Thanks . read more

Received a haircut from Anthony (the owner) what a great experience- I am recently leaving my hair cutting stylist of 10+ years and I was super afraid to get a cut- I was worried like everyone with curly hair that I would lose my length and layers. I was beyond lucky my cousin referred me to Anthony. He was not only kind he actually listened to my concerns and made sure to execute MY vision- I am beyond satisfied- I am already looking forward to my next appointment. Sometimes change is a good thing :) read more

Love this salon!! Danielle perfectly highlighted my hair and Marissa cut and styled my hair flawlessly! The staff is professional and kind. I brought my 3-year old and they were so sweet with her throughout my treatment. Marissa cut my daughter's hair - it was her first time - and my baby girl lived it! The place is new, clean and modern! Highly recommended. read more

Pei is a truly expert colorist. And I'm forever searching for just that. Seems I've found her! And Lisa is a superb stylist. First time there. I'm finally done jumping from place to place. Thank you! read more

This was my first time visiting the salon. The salon is new and looks nice and modern but the staff is pretty unfriendly and almost stuck up. I also was never offered a beverage and there were very few customers in the store. I received a haircut and blowout from Velma and she was friendly and did a great job. She really listens to what you want. However $75 for a haircut is a bit on the high end that doesn't offer a memorable experience. They also have no place for you to place your bag (no counters just long mirrors) so you need to have it on your chair or lap which is annoying if you have a large bag. The salon is in a great location and has a good potential for business but they need to work on their customer service/customer experience. I won't be recommending any of my Plainview friends this salon. read more

Came here to have my hair blownout and curled on my baby shower. Let me start off by saying the shampoo girl was great!! Idk what kind of purple shampoo she used but it did wonders on my blonde hair. The blowout and curls are where everything went wrong. The girl curling my hair first off started to curl it with a straightener which keep in mind I told her I wanted tighter curls that will fall being that it was the hottest day of the year and my hair was going to drop significantly. When my hair wouldn't curl with the straightener she kept going over the pieces multiple times which was clearly frying my hair. Finally I had to tell her to please use a curling iron. When she switched to the curling iron the left side of my hair was coming out so good I thought it was going to be fine. Until she moved to the right side of my head and didnt curl the curls the opposite way of the left side which is something I thought everyone knew to do, especially hair dressers. So I had my curls going the exact same way on my entire head. It was terrible. THEN, she takes the can of hairspray and I think she literally sprayed the entire can in my hair. Which left my hair ROCK SOLID. I left there in a panic and rushed home to rewash my hair and do it all myself before everyone got to my baby shower which was the reason I came here in the first place. Definitely will not be returning when I can just do a better job on myself. read more
