    Ayhan gave me the most amazing haircut. My hair is quite long, very thick and wavy and his skills were stellar. He gave my hair movement and bounce. I prefer a dry cut because it's easier with my texture to get precision and he mastered the assignment. He's also very personable and very professional and keeps his area disinfected between clients. It's a quick walk from Grand Central and a light welcoming comfortable space with a range of services. They use Goldwell Color, Oribe Hair Products and in addition the staff works super hard. I highly recommend Bon-Bon and the prices are reasonable.

    Damaged pants with dye

    I'm really disappointed to be writing this, but my experience at Bon Bon Salon in Murray Hill with Milla was awful from start to finish. I recently moved nearby and wanted to find a new neighborhood salon to build a long term relationship with, since I do several hair treatments a year. I saw great reviews, especially for Milla, so I booked with her for a color correction and highlights. I have very thick, long hair that's naturally black and had been dyed black over old highlights, so I knew this would be a challenging process. Because of that, I called ahead and spoke to Milla directly to confirm she was comfortable and experienced with this type of service. She assured me she could do it and asked me to come early. When I got there, she immediately started commenting on how long and thick my hair was and how hard it would be. I told her multiple times that if she didn't think she could do it or didn't have the time, I was completely fine leaving. She insisted she could handle it. I ended up being there almost 7 hours, and my hair was damaged. What went wrong: She pushed me into a haircut, saying my ends were dead. I only wanted a trim and light layers, but she cut off way more than I asked for. It felt like it was to make the job easier. She constantly complained about my hair being long and thick throughout the appointment, which made me feel bad. If it was such an issue, she shouldn't have agreed to take me, especially after I offered to leave. The bleach and foil application looked extremely sloppy and unorganized. Foils were crumpled, not placed neatly, and she didn't properly section my hair. She had an assistant hold sections instead of using clips. I sat at the sink for about 45 minutes waiting to rinse because she was busy with other clients. I understand overlap happens, but this felt like overbooking and added a ton of time. Because of the messy application, my hair got severely knotted. Detangling was painful, and I eventually asked to brush it myself because it hurt so much. The toner application also felt rushed and uneven. Around 4.5 hours in I asked her to slow down and not rush, but she kept rushing. When she started blow drying, my hair was coming out orange. I asked for dark chocolate brown dimension. I had to point out that it wasn't right, and only then did she acknowledge it. We had to put color on again, which was extra damage that shouldn't have happened if it was done properly the first time. After 6.5+ hours, the result was maybe a 4/10. My hair was much shorter than I wanted, the color ended up darker than requested with little visible dimension, and there were red tones I never asked for. I even helped blow dry my hair just so I could leave. Then I realized there was bleach and dye all over my jeans and top. She had me pose for photos after closing, and despite clearly seeing the stains, she said nothing until I noticed in the mirror. When I brought it up, she said it would come out in the wash and didn't offer to compensate. The assistant was much kinder and tried to help clean dye off my skin and clothes. I sent Milla photos and receipts for the stained clothing ($125). She told me to bring the pants in so she could "try to wash," which wasn't realistic. When I asked for reimbursement, she claimed there was a salon policy that they aren't responsible for clients' clothing, but there's nothing on the website or during booking about that. She also blamed it on my "movement" and told me "no one wears expensive clothes for a color job," which was unprofessional. She eventually offered to Venmo back the tip. Overall, I left feeling upset and shocked by the lack of care and professionalism. I wanted this to be my go to neighborhood salon, but I won't be returning and will be disputing this transaction given their inability to resolve the problems and awful treatment and lack of care that led to hair damage.

    Dina is the best!!! I came in nervous to do a color and she answered all of my questions and made me feel super comfortable moving forward with it, it turned out even better than I imagined! I love my new hair I only trust Dina with it!!

    Ayhan's Business Card

    I was in NYC for an event for my daughter and needed someone to fix my hair. I made an appointment and was lucky to have it booked with Ayhan. He took his time to make my hair look fabulous and last all day long. He also trimmed it some. I have curly middle eastern hair. He straightened it and styled it like I am used to. I loved the look, texture and style. I know now when I visit my daughter where to go for my hair. Thank you so much!

    I scheduled a haircut appointment...a trim. My hair is straight bleached and fine. My hair goals - first to grow out my hair and second to achieve style with body. The cut and blowout I received was amazing! I recommend Ayhan he knew exactly what I needed plus he was fast without rushing. My experience was relaxing and excellent.

    HIGHLY skilled hair professionals! Best haircut and balayage I have received. The colorists are very competent and confident in their work. Despite making some pretty drastic changes to my hair with a new stylist, I felt totally at ease and could not be happier with the work. Thank you Dina for the best cut and highlights!

    Blowouts came out great!

    Great experience with my friend getting blowouts! Fast and friendly service! I would absolutely go back!

    Jack saved my hair as usual :) He is the best.

    I needed a quick wax before vacation and since I had a last minute work trip to NYC, I was under a…read moretime crunch. So when I looked up waxing services on Yelp and noticed that Uni K was nearby, with great reviews and online booking I was locked in! First of all, it was so happy to see that they had some same day appointment availability! Why that may not always be the case, some booking systems will still only show starting next day. I also loved that their menu had a lot of options, including more than one type of Brazilian to book. When I showed up to my appointment, I checked in and filled out some basic, new client information. I was then taken to my room with my waxer promptly after. They use hard wax here which many people prefer, but for me hurts the most. But I don't really care what is used as long as they're hygienic, quick, effective and will not spawn in-grown hairs. My waxer was quick, thorough and one week out...things are still looking good! As a bonus, first time clients got a significant discount which made me even happier about my experience. While my experience before check out was already excellent, that was just icing on the cake. Overall, I left very impressed and will definitely return again in the future!
