I have been going to Fifi for many years now and she is the best. She does the best highlights and haircuts and is such a gem. My boyfriend goes to Isaiah and also raves about him. Could not recommend Arte Salon (and Fifi and Isaiah) more!! read more

I wanted to get hair keratin treatment done, and I've always had really bad experiences. This was an incredible experience at a reasonable price. Everyone was really sweet and kind and the service took less time than I expected. read more

One of the best haircuts I've ever had!!! Kiiko is SO gentle and meticulous. She has incredible energy and is very talented. Highly recommend :) read more

Faisal is the person to see for a keratin treatment. I've been to Korean places in Flushing to the most expensive salon in San Francisco and he is the best. I will only let him touch my hair. Always a pleasure going and I get stared at as I walk down the street after not to mention all the compliments. FAISAL FAISAL FAISAL. read more

I've been going to Arte for many years, even after I moved to Boston. My hairstylist, Renee Sera, is extraordinary. She always takes great care with my cut and I always leave happy. Staff is friendly, professional and engaging. Can't say enough good things about Arte. read more

What a beautiful salon! Located in my favorite neighborhood, this is the salon that I've always been wanting in NYC. Upon entering, you are warmly greeted by the staff. Abbie knows exactly what to do for whatever occasion you need. Just communicate exactly what you are looking for & she will come through with her hair tools. read more

I went to Anastasia at Arte for the first time three years ago and she changed my hair forever. It's a bit pricey, but my hair grows slowly so I only go about 3-4 times a year and the cut LASTS. Even a simple trim and style leaves my hair refreshed and bouncy for months. I have curly, fine hair which is tough to maintain. I used to wake up resembling Cindy Lou Who. Anastasia took the time and attention to listen to me and what I was looking for- I wanted something stylish but not trendy, not too short (this is key- I've had many hairdressers, especially those who cut curly hair, push me to cut it too short). My old hairdresser used to cut my hair as if it was straight, which resulted in very limp curls that I would just throw into a messy bun every day. Anastasia cut my hair dry which is key for curls, and also taught me how to easily maintain the style. The environment at Arte is so relaxing and fun. It's tranquil but also bustling and in the heart of Soho- they always offer you coffee, tea, or wine. It truly is a great treat yourself experience, and I ALWAYS leave feeling fantastic. If you're not sure who to go see, book Anastasia! She is not only great at what she does, but she's a lovely person as well. read more

Really Recommend Abbie, -Saw Abbie for a cut, not only is she really incredible and perceptive at cutting your hair, But she is really nice, and seems like she is the same with everyone. -Really listens and gets something for you, great bedside manner and doesn't take it any other way if you want things done a little more this way or that. A real joy to have, Thanks Abbie read more

I LOVE this place. I've been going to Anastasia for years. She's fabulous and my hair looks fabulous after she does her thing.

The aesthetic here is so beautiful and the lighting is on pointI'm not a customer here but my friend needed some practice and asked if my sister and I would be up for it so I don't know about pricing. But getting my hair washed was so calming and the shampoo/conditioner and other products have made my hair EXTREMELY soft lemme just tell you it feels and smells so good! There's a cute little backyard out back downstairs and I don't know what it's for but it fits the aesthetic here and I love it! Getting pampered like this definitely feels really good and I loved it! read more

Arte Salon - Hair Salons Near Me - New York, New York

Love the haircut and conversation with Anastasia. Definitely going back! Have been trying to find a good salon in Manhattan for over a year. Finally got here !!! read more

Brittany was fantastic! The whole experience from checkin to payment was absolutely superb.

Absolutely amazing cut, styling, and overall experience. Luiz was able to understand what I wanted, yet encouraged me to get an edgier look while still delivering exactly what I wanted. He somehow maintained the length, got rid of the unhealthy ends, and added much more movement than I thought was possible. Got so many compliments that day, and even now, after the beautiful styling is gone my hair looks super healthy, and beautiful. Would 100% return! Great ambiance and even better conversation. read more

Well, I did get a haircut with the master himself and I have to say I have never ever had such a awful haircut in my entire life !!! I had a beautiful long hair and all I wanted just a bit trim to make it look fresh, instead now I have a short really badly layered like its from 30 years ago !!! I am the kind of person who thinks , oh it's just the hair it will grow back , but this time I literally cried over it !!! I guess I never had such a bad hair cut to understand what it means !!! I don't even wanna look at the mirror ! Apart from such a awful haircut, the rest was good ! Nice design, okay staff, really online . But who cares about that when you have to cry over you hair !!! IF YOU HAVE NOT BEEN THERE AND WANT TO TRY THEM FOR THE FIRST TIME, I would think twice before doing so ! read more

From the street, Arte looks like a small facade of a Greek Villa, its all white front makes you feel like your on to something special. The staff tries hard to put on a smile and make you feel welcome and relaxed, don't expect any "we are better than you" airs here. I had a hair cut and blow dry. My hair was cut with precision, but the front fell flat on my face - the front fell better before it was cut. I had a senior stylist who was patient and a good listener. The other customers seemed content. Given the competition of salons in this city and my wanting to have a certain experience, I would not return. The clientele were not my style nor were the stylists (though very nice). The overall experience seemed like this was a place for rookies. I would recommend it to someone coming in from NJ/CONN/LI or tourist for their day of beauty. Its like a starter house in a way. The salon is well designed inside and out. read more

I guess you have to be somewhat wary of places that receive perfect five star ratings.. usually SOMEONE has something to complain about, right? Well, my friends, this salon is extremely well-deserving of this rating. I booked an appt here because (a) Lifebooker has a 20% discount, dropping the price to $64 for a woman's haircut with Tomoko (I paid like $40 for my haircuts in Jersey so this price still hurts a bit) and (b) because it got the often-unattainable 5 star rating on yelp. Plus.. my hair looked like a subway rat was making a permanent nest, so I was delighted when I was able to book an appt the same day. The place was really easy to get to (Broadway/Lafayette - BDFM or Bleecker Street - 6) and had a cute little house-like look from the outside. Other than the man peeing on the sidewalk, it seemed very welcoming (it was raining so I thought it was a rain puddle I was about to step in... until I saw the man zip up his pants and look at me disapprovingly.. hey wait! HE's judging ME? I know the rat nest on top of my head was weird.. but he's peeing on the sidewalk at 6pm). I walked in ten minutes early for my appt and was greeted very warmly by the receptionist (I read receptionist-horror stories of other salons, so I was a little intimidated) and told to go into the changing room to change into a robe..... say what?! Change? I felt like I was at the hospital getting into my pre-surgery dressing gown. See above for $40 haircut - I am not too fancy with my haircuts... and never had to change. They usually throw that germ-infested smock right over my clothes. I met my stylist, Tomoko, and ordered a cappuccino from the drink boy. I don't know if Tomoko is new or not, because I have not seen any reviews on here for her, but she was AMAZING! Seriously the sweetest person I have ever met who had to rake the knots out of my hair. She talked to me about my hair, kept asking if I needed anything, and just made genuine conversation. She kept asking me about the length before she cut any shorter, and showed me what she was doing before she did it. The blowout was also nice.. though the way my hair was starting to look, I got a little reminiscent of a certain Brady Bunch mother... however, once it was done, I realized it looked great and I was extremely pleased. *I also have long hair (middle of back) and though the price was $64, I only paid $66 and some change I guess as tax. Thought that was nice that I didn't get the long hair surcharge... considering I just wanted a trim and what's the difference in a trim whether my hair is at my shoulders or my ankles? **Bang trims are free.. ***Appears they take walkins if they have openings. *****I will DEFINITELY go back, and DEFINITELY use Tomoko again. /END unnecessarily long review which manages to add no extra value to the last line which just states that this place and Tomoko are awesome. read more

I hesitated on writing a review because I was seriously paranoid that Tomoko would get discovered and then become too busy to squeeze me in (haha). All jokes aside, Tomoko at Arte Salon is simply amazing. I have always been wary of having someone new cut my hair, and having had some blah experiences at other fancy, highly rated salons (Medulla, I'm talking about you), it was such a relief to find someone who is genuinely friendly, nice, sweet, AND can cut hair well. Other great things about her: she never pushes products on you, she takes her time, she makes you feel renewed and gorgeous, and you can book her through Lifebooker! As long as I live in NYC, Tomoko will be the only one who can touch my hair. read more

There was a NYC Gilt offer for this salon. I decided to give it a shot since I have yet to fall in love with any stylist. That is until I met Jeremy. I went to Jeremy for the 2nd time and a week later, Arte Salon informs me that he is no longer working there. I'm devastated. So upset....Jeremy if you see this, Please reach out!!!! Emm Kay on Facebook is my name. Does anyone happen to know where he went!? help!!!! read more

Jeremy isn't at Arté anymore, as of last week! Loved the vibe at Arté but I'd follow Jeremy anywhere...how disappointing for the salon, they lost an amazing hairdresser (and probably all of his clients, yikes)! read more

I searched far and wide for a haircut and color that wouldn't break the bank (or make me look crazy) and I finally found it at Arte Salon. I booked a Cut with Tim Cadman and a color with Miyuki. The salon itself was gorgeous, located in Nolita and two floors. I was led downstairs for a color first with Miyuki and was offered an awesome cappuccino and Miyuki showed me some pictures of what she was going to do. We settled on some caramel highlights and she got to work. I wouldn't say the color turned out FABULOUS - it was okay. My hair reacted funny to the highlights (some parts lightened faster than others) and it took literally, forever. The great part about the salon is they were genuinely concerned about how happy I was and offered a million times to fix it for free or if at any point I was unhappy, they welcomed me to come back to get it corrected. I then got my haircut with Tim. HE IS AMAZING. After reading raves about him, I can see why they love him so much. First of all, he has a great personality - he is soft-spoken but not boring. Definitely very friend and for sure knows exactly what he's doing. I asked him for his suggestions and brought in some pictures and he was honest about what would look best on me. He was extremely meticulous in the cut and even told me to come back to get my bangs trimmed for free whenever I wanted. I will definitely go back for haircuts although I may be looking around for colorists... read more

Arte Salon itself, it is a great space. I personally love the bottom level as there is a little garden out back. The space is clean and always buzzing, but never feels crowded. Staff are always pleasant and friendly and make you feel very welcome from the moment you walk in the door. And the shampoo experience is amazing!!!!!! AND there is lots of eye candy, not matter which side of the fence you sit on.... which always makes for a pleasant day. The only downside, which wasn't even big enough to remove a star, was the product range. Don't get me wrong, they have amazing products, but I would like to see something more targeted towards the male clients, and perhaps a different hairspray.... loves me some hairspray but I really don't want to leave smelling like Nanna at a wedding thanks to the El-net hairspray!!! However - the main attraction and reason why I go to this salon, and the receiver of most of the stars, is for my gorgeous, beautiful, fun, amazing stylist Kate Werner!!!!!!!!!!! I have been seeing Kate for at least six years and have never ever had someone touch my hair since! Kate is one of the greatest stylist I have come across in NYC, for both sexes, especially for men. She has an amazing talent to know exactly what looks good on someone. Even on those days where I have gone in with the dreaded "I don't know what I want to do" Kate almost reads my mind and explains what she is going to do, and I know it's going to be perfect. She has a way of giving me exactly what I want - even when I don't even know what it is. PLUS the cuts last... they hold up even if you can't get back to the salon soon enough for your next cut, even as your hair grows, it maintains its style. I have never left Kate feeling unhappy or not 100% satisfied with her cuts. I have seen her transform people from drab to amazing. Her clients leave feeling and looking like a superstar. Kate makes you feel comfortable, relaxed and beautiful (or in my case, handsome). If you are looking for an truly talented stylist and you are ready to leave a salon feeling like a star, go to Arte and book some time with KATE!!!!!!!!!! read more

Anastasia is fantastic. Really listens to what you want and then customizes it to suit your face and hair. I also saw her finish the client before me. She does *amazing* color - the woman's hair was a beautiful shade of red and looked delicate and completely natural. I get the sense that women leave Anastasia's chair feeling beautiful and confident. And it's a great salon in an interesting neighborhood. It has a hidden quality that belies a hopping two floor business inside. I was surprised at how reasonable the prices are given the quality of the hairdressers. My haircut looks great the next day with nothing but a shower and a towel dry. I will be back to see Anastasia next time I'm in town. Thank you! read more

I had a hair appointment with Jeremy yesterday and he was AMAZING! After reading rave reviews for this salon, I purchased a voucher for a haircut and blowdry on Gilt. The receptionist was very pleasant and able to cater to my schedule. She told me a bit about Jeremy's career, and I felt more than comfortable going to see him that afternoon. When he asked me what I was looking for, I explained to him that my hair always looks good but there's nothing special about it and I wanted my hair to look great. He went above and beyond to cut and style my hair as promised, and gave me a bunch of really helpful ideas for styling on my own so that I could have the salon look on a daily basis! Lastly, added perks - free bang shaping between cuts and a glass of wine with the appointment. I will most definitely be returning! read more

They cancelled both of my haircuts without explanation or apology, less than 24 hours in advance. If I had done the same I would have owed them the full cost of the cut. They wasted 2 months of my time. Unprofessional. read more

My favorite salon in NYC! Very comfortable and everyone is super friendly. Anastasia is a master colorist / stylist. She is my go to girl and I always leave there feeling amazing. Highly recommend! read more

I got a great haircut from Nozomi when I was there last week. The salon has a fun and chill environment and everyone was happy. Nozomi cut my hair exactly how I wanted it and all the other stylists were excited how good it looked. read more

HORRIBLE EXPERIENCE My mother and I had purchased Gilt City vouchers for a haircut and a makeup application. We made appointments for this over a month in advance. We never received a phone call confirming our appointments from the salon, which seemed odd. When we arrived at the salon, the receptionist informed my mother and I that their makeup artist would not be coming in, so we would not be getting our makeup done, even though we had already paid for it. The receptionist offered us a 'deep conditioning treatment'...my mother and I both have very thin, oily hair, so this would not be any good for us. She then offered us a sample size of shampoo in lieu of the makeup application. Annoyed, but anxious to get our hair cut, we went to the waiting area to be taken by our stylists. My mother was taken while I sat there. I finally opened my mouth and asked what was going on ?? We were j formed we there was only one Gilt Stylist and we had to wait-even though we made two appointments at the same time !! What a waste of time !! While we sat there having our day wasted, the owner was walking around doing NOTHING. There was only two other customers in the salon-someone could have helped us out instead of making us sit there like peasants. At the end of the day, we received mediocre haircuts. Horrendous customer service. I would not suggest coming to this salon. The skill level isn't there, and the staff nasty and rude. I reached out to Gilt City with this information and they refunded our money, because they agreed that our treatment at Arte salon is not what they stand by. read more

I bought a voucher on Gilt City and was assigned to Jeremy. As an Asian, I always went for Asian stylists and was hesitant about going to a non-asian salon. In case you are having the same concern as I did, I would say: go to Jeremy! Everything turned out better than I had expected. Jeremy was very understanding about my preferences and stuck with the length we agreed on. I'm not a layer-person and end result was fantastic. More volume, healthier-looking hair. read more

My wife has been here two times and she always comes out looking great. Her stylist Anastasia is really nice, and more importantly knows her shit. Throw in the fact that the owner offered me a Scotch and I will be bringing both G and my mom here before we head of to UK. read more

Umm, Luca, what?? Anyway, I have been going to the same hairstylist, Jemma, for years. She began working at this salon maybe a year ago, so I started going to see her there. I love this salon. Everyone is professional and very friendly. No hipper-than-thou attitudes that you find at other salons. I got the distinct impression that everyone employed here is very talented and has a large clientele of regulars. The other customers I see there are always chatting with their stylists like long-time friends. The space is small, but clean and lovely. They have a cute little outside area downstairs too. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone! read more

Today I had one of the best haircuts I've ever had! The hairstylist that cut my hair for years moved out of the country and I had a couple of bad experiences in other studios since. The last one was the worst and I was just miserable. A friend recommended Arte Salon and Anastasia particularly, and I am so happy she did. Not only was Anastasia one of the coolest and sweetest people ever, but she was so talented and knew exactly what my hair needed! I can't recommend her enough! I finally found my new hairstylist! (Anastasia, please don't leave NY!) read more

This review is long overdue. In all honesty, the star here is Amy, the hair stylist, but Arte provides an excellent supporting cast and backdrop. Amy has been cutting my hair since 2005, and she gets it right every time. EVERY. TIME. Not only has she seen me through multiple changes in length and styling, she's also cleaned up countless botched 'dos that I've gotten elsewhere. You see, I moved halfway across the country shortly after meeting Amy, and often felt that I should find a local hairdresser to handle my locks, rather than waiting for the 1-2 times a year that I came back to New York. What a mistake. So few people seem to know how to properly cut curly hair, and I've gotten more awful, wedge-shaped haircuts than I care to remember. After each mishap, I've gone to Amy, who somehow always manages to rehabilitate the mess left by another hairdresser. I've found no one else who can make my thin, loopy curls look so goddamn hip. Recently, she took me to a drastically shorter length. And once again, I love it. This woman works magic. I hope she never retires. Incidentally, she's also an awesome person--smart, interesting, and articulate. You'll always get good care and good conversation when you're in her hands. Arte Salon is great, too. While the decor makes it feel a bit fancypants, the staff is anything but. Everyone I've interacted with there is friendly, down to earth, and helpful. Yes, the prices are high. I save up for a haircut, or ask my family to buy me a haircut for my birthday. But really, I'd so much rather shell out once for a great haircut than have to get a bad, less-expensive one fixed. Curly-haired people, Amy is your woman (I suspect she does a great job with straight and wavy hair, as well). read more

I love Garrett! I've had lots of stylists before who do their own thing, but Garrett really listens to what you want, figures out what will look best on you, and makes you look BEAutiful. I get tons of compliments on the haircut he gave me. He also knows tons about the products and even showed me how to use them. I don't usually use products, but he made it easy. Thank you Garrett, for making me look like fabulous! What a great salon experience. :) :) :) read more

I heart :) Tomoko takes her time and makes great conversation. Meticulous, pays attention, and listens to what I say. Sounds like a given but I'm consistently surprised by how many stylists fail to listen. She didn't judge when I told her my last haircut was in November.....just saying....some of us don't need all that much upkeep when it comes to hair, I guess. I have healthy hair and I keep it pretty simple, so I can get away with relative little maintenance I guess. Great experience from start to finish. From the cappuccino to the shampoo to the haircut, it was all good. Looks like I found my salon in the city! Booked tomoko on lifebooker for $64, I believe she's usually $80. I'd pay full price for her though. read more

Wow. Beware. The pricing on the site is false and up to the owners discrepancy. Came recommended by a friend that came in to see the same stylist four days earlier (she paid $150) and I was charged $285 for a mediocre haircut. Owner is combative and not solution oriented. I waited 50 minutes past my appointment to get seen. Gemma spent 11 minutes cutting my hair from a requested trim to shoulder length. She was sweet but did not apologize for the delay. After waiting fifty minutes for a haircut spent 11 minutes with a stylist that took my requested trim to shoulder length hair. Not even an apology for the delay. Got reprimanded for calling out the pricing discrepancies by Joseph who was pretty intolerable and not customer oriented. Add insult to injury, my leather jacket was 'moved' from my tote bag during my haircut. Watch out! This place is a complete rip off with terrible customer service. read more

Everything about this was great other than that they had no hot water to wash your hair with. As a styling salon, you need to ensure this is going to be okay throughout the day (especially as it was very cold outside). + Free wine, tea, lattes + Extremely helpful staff + Called me to tell me that Tomoko was running behind (sadly, I was in the subway so showed up a little late, per my usual, but only had to wait 10 minutes [with my wine] to be seen) + Tomoko was extremely natural, lovely, and encouraging. She made me feel good about my hair even though it's been since June that I last cut it. She spent a long time on my hair, asked how I wanted it styled before leaving, and was very understanding that i can't have anything that requires maintenance. She was a joy. Overall, Tomoko was so beyond the average hair stylist, not fake or fussy or condescending about my no-maintenance approach to hair styling. She was genuinely concerned that the hair might be too short and even though her regular price is $80 I would actually consider going back (Lifebooker has a $64 haircut available from Tomoko. I wonder if I can book again.) two and a HALF dollar signs, really. read more

My hair grew out beautifully and my second cut/highlights with Jeremy were as lovely as the first. My hair looks the best it ever has. I also really appreciate not getting a guilt trip for taking a good amount of time between appointments. I have neither the time, money, or inclination to get to a salon more than 4 times a year, so it's great to find a stylist that understands low-maintenance. read more

I absolutely love Arté! I have heard the most amazing reviews about it and finally decided to see what the hype was about. I have incredibly long hair and was looking to cut it blunt, short and sleek, and was recommended to a stylist named Sherene. Sherene was so professional, kind and brilliant at her job! I've never been more happy with my hair. She gave me exactly what I wanted and asked for and I could not recommend her more. She took her time and genuinely cared about how my hair made me look and feel, spending upwards of an hour and a half on the details at the ends until I was 100% content and satisfied. Definitely go to Arté and ask to see Sherene for your next trim! You won't regret it! read more

I'd been coming here for trims and cuts with Jeremy. I was surprised to hear that he had left earlier in the year, but I really needed a cut. They charged me Jeremy's rate for Miyuki. Someone messed up with the booking because I waited for a loooong time in the back waiting area -- I think Miyuki was double booked. The owner eventually came to apologize. It's a good thing I didn't make plans or else I would've been at least an hour late. I think Miyuki was more senior than Jeremy, but the cut - I wasn't impressed and never went back. I have thick Asian hair and always need it to be lightened a little. I felt like I barely got a trim. There was no Asian to Asian mutual understanding. So, needless to say I started looking online for Jeremy and I found him - look at my other reviews! read more

The best of the best as far as taking excellent care of their clients. I've been coming here for almost 3 years, about 1-2x a month for a fresh cut. Location can't be beat. They can accommodate same-day appointments. Staff is insanely talented. Can't say enough good things. read more
