Even after not living in town for a few years, I still am loyal to Salon Gatto for my hair cuts…read more From the comfy, clean space to my amazing stylist, Molly, I am sooooo happy everytime I leave. I have long hair that can be anywhere from wavy to just downright messy curls, it's changed over the years. Molly has always made sure to give me the cut that would flatter it most if it air-dried or blow dried myself, not just when it was professionally blown out leaving the salon. I tell her how I usually would do it and she makes sure that the cut works best for that. She has always given me honest opinions or when I thought about coloring it or doing a gloss. I loved that she didn't push me at all for any sort of color even though it would obviously be much more expensive. Before Salon Gatto, over the years, I've gone to other salons closer to home or near work when I was in a pinch or I've seen other hair stylists at Salon Gatto before I found Molly, (I'm sorry but I can't remember any names!) They were always wonderful and I definitely left happy but Molly is my favorite. She is great at her job, not overly talkative (this is a time to RELAX for me) and sweet and is honest. Am I fangirling?? Probably. They have two locations and just opened a whole new second floor at their original location by the Path train, so I love to see them growing and growing!! Other little great things about Salon Gatto: -they have a lovely drink menu that they bring you out right away, which makes visits here feel even more like a treat. -they hair wash is thorough and they will almost always include a really nice head massage. Only great things to say. Book an appointment if you need a new salon!

I am writing on behalf of my niece. She emailed the salon with photos of a hairstyle she wanted…read more The salon confirmed that they can accomodate this, and an appointment was made. This was done a week prior to the appointment. 2 days prior to the appointment, the salon called to say the stylist will be out for the week, and no one else can do that hairstyle. So they were canceling the appointment, leaving my niece in a bind to call other salons during a weekend. Really, a staff that will be out for a week did not give advanced notice? Like they just decide to take off? Or perhaps she only has that one client for the day and decided that it's not worth it to come in? Who knows? But despite the talent we will not be calling again.

I made a color consultation appointment with Nelly with an interest of doing highlights (without…read morebleaching) on my jet black hair. Nelly supported that if I didn't want to bleach it then don't bleach me. She pulled out some inspirational photos for me and suggested that I do a full balayage. We agreed on the color (caramel). So the day of my appointment comes, and the whole process took approximately 2.5 hours and I love how it came out. My hair does not feel dry and still looks/feels fairly healthy. Nelly only takes one customer at a time, so I had the whole salon to myself. She's very warm and very easy to talk to. We shared many funny stories on a nice Saturday afternoon. Will definitely recommend Nelly if you're considering a balayage.

Nelly is the best! She is nice and easy to talk to and made me feel so beautiful! I will be back!read more

I booked a makeup appointment with an apprentice a few of weeks in advance for family photos, but…read moreless than 48 hours before the appointment I received a call that the apprentice was no longer available. I was offered the option to rebook with a regular artist, but the price was nearly double. When I asked politely if they could honor the apprentice rate or offer a discount since the cancellation wasn't on my end, they declined "because we called you yesterday and she had a dental emergency". It was disappointing to be met with a lack of empathy, especially since this left me scrambling at short notice. This would have been my first visit to this business, and while I understand things happen, I wish the situation had been handled with a bit more flexibility and care.

She was immediately accommodating and lovely through email and text and I was able to send her inspiration pictures as well as pictures of myself so she was familiar with my skin and hair texture. When I arrived to her apartment on the day of my event, it felt like a friend was doing your hair and makeup - TLC was on in the background and she was lovely to have a conversation with! I am very particular with anything having to do with my hair and face and she NAILED it. She spent SO much time on me and made me feel extremely important. She did everything (and more) that I envisioned. I also received compliments all night for my hair and makeup! She is the best and I would highly recommend! Thanks again Jenny!!

Finding someone you can trust with your hair + make up for your wedding day is HARD.. there are…read morealready enough stressful things going on when you're about to get married! We will have our pictures forever and I wanted to love how I looked in them. I was worried about finding the right person for such an important job. I was super lucky and got a recommendation from my friend who worked with Jenny on her wedding day. Jenny was absolutely amazing, professional, very sweet, a wonderful listener, and attentive. She really did a phenomenal job and I couldn't be happier with how everything turned out. I initially did a make up trial and was very impressed; I booked her early to make sure she would be available for my November wedding day. She is very skilled at creating the natural, soft look I was going for and I wish I could replicate it on a daily basis. If only I had her talent! Jenny arrived to my hotel on time and completed hair styling and make up for me (the bride), my mother, and my sister. She did not make us feel rushed and took her time to make sure we were all incredibly pleased with the looks she created. I adored my hair and makeup and felt truly beautiful on my big day. My mother and sister looked stunning as well and received many compliments. Jenny's prices were very fair and I was more than satisfied with how everything turned out. It was such a stress free and lovely experience, really everything I had hoped for.. My make up did not smear even after exchanging teary vows with my husband. If I still lived in NYC I would use Jenny for all special occasions. She is such a pro!!!! Highly recommended A+++++
